video 🌸 un: white heron

[mistsplitter]

[ The video starts with two people– a young lady with bluish white hair, bright yet silver, almost blue, eyes, with a distinguishable mole under her left eye, pink ribbons tied around the hair that frames her face. She waves at the camera shyly, before gesturing to the blond next to her. With those sharp red eyes of his, it's bound to capture one's attention. ]

Greetings, everyone. My name is Kamisato Ayaka, and with me is Mister Kaveh, a renowned architect from the city of Sumeru in Teyvat.

[ Somehow, she doesn't say anything about where she's from, but THAT'S OKAY AND DEFINITELY ON PURPOSE. ]

Back home, I, along with my brother, head an organisation within our nation's government that handles its cultural affairs, as well as festivals and ceremonies. Since we all come from different worlds, Mister Kaveh and I had discussed the possibility of organising some sort of art festival for us– for all of us here who were pulled into this world.

Since we may be staying here for some time, I think it is a good idea to have something that is just for us. And it would be fun and exciting to learn about the other worlds and cultures out there through literature, music, dance, and other forms of art. Any income generated for this would be used in our own efforts, as well. If there are other events we would like to organize, or if we need to help our fellow refugees in need, then we can use the funds for it.

[ kaveh steps forward and chimes in, ] And let's not forget baking and cooking. [ since it would be nice to sample the drink and food of other places. ] But~ before all that fun can be had we'd like to see if there's interest. Not only that, but we'd also like to know if you'd want to get involved. [ he pivots, pointing dramatically at the video feed. ] Help us bring this festival to life, because it’s sure to be a good, no, great time!

Now, [ he clears his throat. ] if you don’t mind, please tell us if you’d like to attend, participate, or both - thank you.


[ OOC: We were thinking of doing this late next month, if there's enough interest! :) ICly, it may be in Amberfall, and Ayaka will rent a big events place for it. The festival will last a couple of days! Maybe 2-3 days or so. ]

Really? That seems even more impressive. How did that end up happening?

We were in Nippon because time began looping in our worlds. Some magic went wrong, I think? But the scientists there were working on fixing it, and they found a way to let us visit our homes for a little bit.

Time was still looping and there were some other rules we had to follow, but it was pretty worth it.

[noarchitact]

...time had been looping? Sounds like a real mess, but at least they chose to help and you had a chance to drop by your home. I would say hopefully the next time you're there it's for good, but it sounds like you made a lot of friends in that strange place, so... [ going home would mean being separated from them, but also it's home. ]

[fairlyheroic]

I made a few, yeah. It wasn't a bad time - I enjoyed my time there. I don't mind another detour on my way home, either. I'll get back home eventually.

[noarchitact]

...and it sounds like this place isn't a half bad detour in comparison to some of the other places I've heard about.

[fairlyheroic]

Yeah, I've heard some things. Here's hoping this place isn't like that at all.
