nexusofdragons⫸ WORLD: A crystalline pocket dimension
⫸ AGENCY: Shared
⫸ LOCATION: See above
⫸ EVENT: The Winter Gather Exchange!
⫸ NOTES: This is a general info post and a place to RP with one another and with the host, the enigmatic Noya Fosse
Part I: Arrival
You find yourself drifting off to sleep, or perhaps merely daydreaming, with the faintest sensation of a cold breeze tickling the back of your neck. Then, as darkness subsumes you, you feel the brush of hundreds of heavy flakes of the most beautiful, crystalline snow. This snow glints in all the colours of a frozen rainbow, prisms of sourceless light that blind you until you push your way forward into... into what, exactly?
The place you arrive is nothing like home: a frozen den of sharp pillars of ice support a mirror-smooth roof. Like the court of a powerful ruler, this place is fit to impress. Treasures of every kind and shape are frozen below the floor and along the walls: look but don't touch, please! The main hall is artfully littered with places to sit for creatures both large and small, and to one side is a never-ending buffet of cold and hot food (and drinks, and of course you know there are marshmallows) attended by little icy creatures not completely unlike flitters.
But what takes your first impressions and blows them away is the owner of this odd little place. A sinuous dragon of crystalline grace rests upon a raised dais on a throne molded of snow. Her scales seem to reflect the globes of light gently shining down on the room, and she is currently in deep conversation with a very furry creature made, it seems, to exist only in the deepest cold.
A chubby little flitter wings over to you (or perhaps it's a small fleet) with a pelt of heavy fur.
::Welcome to the Winter Gather! Noya chose you to partake in her riches and get to know one another. The Nexus is back! The Nexus is back!::
That thought fades from your mind as the flitter scoots off to its next duty, though it sounds like a triumphal cheer.
Welcome to the Winter Gather, it seems. What do you do next?
Part II: The Revelation

Date: 2020-12-19 02:49 am (UTC)As the champagne glasses floated over, Thayer accepted his with a graceful tilt of his head. Bane held out a hand for the glass to float to, then acknowledged Aeni's hospitality with a curt nod.
"I apologize if I came across as over eager," Thayer said after a sip. "It's been a long time since we could mingle in the Nexus. I'm eager to see the places I've only heard stories about."
Thayer then turned his attention to the flits and sent a mental push at them to drive them away. He was so used to the screeching, starving creatures flocking to the nearest person who showed a hint of interest, but he knew not everyone saw them as being as harmless as he did. Some thought they were down right nuisances.
