Event: Eiko's Birthday Ball

Characters: OPEN to all party guests
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: A big party for a small girl. Yep, it's Eiko's birthday and she's having a ball.
Location: Lindblum Grand Castle
Date: March 21st, 1804
Warnings: N/A so far

Nobody could say that Regent Cid wasn't generous when it came to his adopted daughter, Eiko. In fact, some said that he was too indulgent. But on this, the evening of Eiko's tenth birthday, the citizens of Lindblum were ready and eager to celebrate. A free ball! Free drinks, free food, and a free pass into Lindblum Grand Castle. Many had failed to acquire tickets in time and were disappointed, but the lucky few piled eagerly into the castle.

Security was tight, and every single guest was checked by the guards before being allowed to enter. Once inside, they would find a wide and sumptuously decorated ballroom. A small group of musicians played slow and ambient music, while the party guests swayed across the floor dressed in all their finery. What could only be described as a flock of moogles flew or scurried around the room, offering glasses of champagne and various sweet treats. Regent Cid himself sat on a grand throne at the head of the room, nodding graciously at the guests who came to pay their respects. 

The ball was already in full swing, and the party would go on for a long while yet.

[ooc: Don't worry if you didn't comment to Regent Cid's earlier post requesting tickets. Handwaving is just fine if you want to hop in. It's party style - go tag and mingle! Thread jumping and ninja tagging is encouraged.]

[ooc: Eiko has made a very loud announcement about a celebrity couple's engagement. Feel free to overhear, react or congratulate.]

Mjrn nodded cautiously. "For now. I believe my traveling companions are becoming restless, so I suspect that by next month, we shall be elsewhere. There are no solid plans made yet, however."

"Travelling companions?" Rinoa tilted her head curiously. "So you're with a whole gang of friends? That sounds great. Who's travelling with you? You can tell them that you guys can hitch a ride on Garden whenever you want."

"I will remember to mention this. Perhaps it will come to pass soon, should our paths intersect." Mjrn looked eager to see Garden again. The technology was unfamiliar but fascinating, and with friends aboard, how could she refuse. "Reks and I travel with Vaan and Penelo. Now that they have returned, I have little wish to part from their company."

"Oh, I know them!" Rinoa said. "You definitely should come and visit, all of you."

Garden was a big place. It could hold everyone that Rinoa knew easily, and Rinoa was always eager to have more friends to talk to.
