Ode to the Ancients

This year's Last night before the Big party hosts something new and something very rare to catch in Second Life, something mesmerizing and fascinating: Theatre. Behind each act there's weeks and weeks of work and preparation, and The Night Theatre which I am honoured to host this year is one of the best you can see in Second Life. Ode to the Ancient is expecially made by Aelva and her troupe for the 8th Anniversary of Fallen Gods, and will perform twice tonight, at Noon slt and at 1 pm slt. Do not miss the chance, I hope to see you at the Garden roof,
Yours,
Alia

Please remember this is a combat match, no running away to avoid combat and to rebuild health, doing so you will receive one warning a second time and you could forfeit the match.

The Festival Market: Thank You Friends!

Pictures By Sonya Marmurek.

--This post is somewhat Long, it has a personal thank you, Market Previews and some captures about the wonderfull crazy Wacky races that took place yesterday--
IMPORTANT: The Hunt start is postponed to Friday, tonight the festival takes some rest for the wicked.

The main reason why I do the Festival Market is to drag out of their den my creative Labrats friends and let them see the Sunlight....and it always pays off. Even with short notice many created something new for the Festival, from wonderful jewelry, to new hair colors, to Spinning rides, to God statues and little starry critters.... but most important of all: many took the time to enjoy some Second Life by chilling together, laughing and adding some relaxed memories to our usually busy routines. I am really happy to have them on my perfectly messy lawn, each easel is a smile and a friendship spot.
Come visit the roof garden Market, enjoy the sunset in Selidor and take a quiet evening on the Arcipelagus. Feel at home, 
Alia
