Built into the cliffs overlooking the Suvan Sea, Riverfall resides on the edge of grasslands of Cyphrus where the Bluevein River plunges off the plain and cascades down to the inland sea below. Home of the Akalak, Riverfall is a self-supporting city populated by devoted warriors. [Riverfall Codex]

[Beautyfest] Spa Tent

Timestamp: Late afternoon, 68th of Autumn 513AV

The billowing curtains of the spa tent mark a place of serenity, set slightly apart from the main stretch of stalls. Shoes are either left at the door, or carried in hand, a boon to those women who had taken uncomfortable shoes for the sake of fashion. Many choose to take the complementary robes instead of relaxing in their day fashion, though it's not required.

The main area of the tent is for manicures and pedicures, with a row of comfortable chairs in front of basins at their respective heights. Nail paints of all colors of the spectrum are available, and a patron may choose to take home a small bottle of their choice for a fee. Outside the tent, a few chairs are set up towards the sun, to better get a last-minute healthy glow to the skin.

There is a curtain to a back room, where women may go to get massages, away from the prying eyes of those passing the tent. Back, shoulder, and foot massages are offered, though back and shoulder massages require the patron to change into one of the spa robes.

Conversation here is light and relaxed, with the smell of massage oil giving the area a heady feel. Normal chairs are interspersed through the tent, so a visitor may sit and converse with his lady of choice while she relaxes. However, men are not permitted in the massage area, though some choose to sit outside and talk through the curtained barrier.

OOC Info :
Just a few quick reminders, and these go for the men and the women!

  • Feel free to post amongst yourselves without moderator intervention. I will pop in with a post here and there, but don't wait for me.
  • You may move to a new location/thread, but you must post a "leaving" post here before you post your introduction into the other thread.
  • NPCs are allowed in, even allowed to give beads, but any beads given from them do not count towards your competition total. We're pretty loose with NPCs around here, so feel free to use them as you like.
  • If you are not competing, you are still allowed to hang out. However, only if you were registered in the city of Riverfall prior to Sept. 16 are you allowed to give out beads. Just assume you lost them or gave them all out already. Here's a clear breakdown of what you can do depending on your status:
    • Compete: Must be registered in signup thread (which is now closed)
    • Give out beads: Must be registered in the city prior to Sept. 16
    • Hang out without beads: Anybody
  • On Nov. 1, the final party thread will be posted, though you may continue in the primping threads if you'd like. I'd like them to start winding down though around the end of the season, though it's not a requirement.

[Beautyfest] Spa Tent

The beautyfest was an exciting for Eida too. It was her first festival she had joined in Riverfall. She couldn't believe in herself that she did that. She had enough of escaping and hiding. She wanted to take part of the city, no matter her origin. And a contest, it was a perfect moment. She wanted to win inside, even though she may have not say it.

She took one of the spa robe and was thinking which service she should take. She was thinking for a manicure and pedicure first. But when she looked at her nails she realized, it would be waste of time. It was black, it was long and it will change at night. She sighed but she had other options like a massage. It was a good option to relax her body, and maybe it could relax her mind. She went behind the curtains and lied down. "I wish to have a back massage please!" She asked, and she got it right away.

Stress had gone. She was enjoying the massage so much. Even little cramps were only bad memories now. While she was relaxing, she could look around. She wasn't alone of course, other contestants were there and visitors also. She tried to socialize with others if they paid attention to her, as a symenestra. "Hey! Is this your first time also in this festival?"

OOCOkay girls, I started it. Either Krima or Venya can answer or both.( but I guess that's obvious :D) Let's have some fun and enjoy the spa! :P

This was all something foreign yet exciting to Venya as she entered the spa tent. She had yet to take part in such a festival and she couldn't help but feel the excitement bubbling up inside her. She wasn't dead set on wanting to win, but instead was looking forward to just relaxing and being pampered. While winning would be nice, mentally Venya couldn't fathom it actually happening. Not with so many other women entered. At least, she guessed there were many others entered.

The Konti made her way back to the curtains that concealed the massage area. She wore one of the spa robes, her hair falling loose down to where is stopped right past her shoulder blades. She'll have to get that done later, not happy with its current condition. As she entered the closed off area, she made her way back to one of the open spots. Asking for back and shoulder massages, she lied down on her stomach and started to feel the tension leave her body as experienced hands worked to draw it out.

It was not until she heard a voice that Venya turned her head to look at the others in the tent. Her eyes settle the one speaking. A being that she was a bit surprised to see. What she saw a woman with ashy colored skin and a thin figure. Her eyes were a shade of reddish purple and her hair is white. The Konti just looked at the creature for a tick before nodding. "Yes," she answered, "This is a first for me." She gave a small smile, feeling too relaxed to feel alarmed or threatened. Even with a symenstra not far from her.

68th Day of Fall, 513 A.V.
Krima practically skipped into the Spa Tent. Today was her first Beautyfest, and she was going to make it count. She had made her own dress, expected by a seamstress. It was light pink in color, with the sweetheart neckline a row of beads. The skirt pleated in the center and slowly fanned out, reaching down just enough to cover her feet as she walked. The dress had been her pride and joy ever since she finished it. Sure, she worked on many formal dresses along with her sister, but never had she made one completely on her own. This was her work, and only her own.

At the moment however, she needed to focus on other aspects of beauty. She slipped out of her dress and tied the spa robe around her waist. A red head guided her to a table, where Krima layed down on her stomach and relaxed. The masseuse began on her back, which she was grateful for. She had spent hours upon hours bent over a needle and thread, and it showed with every pop from her back.

"Yes," came from a fellow Konti next to her, addressing another woman. "This is a first for me." Krima was a bit surprised. She hadn't really thought about how many other women would be participating for the first time as well.

"It's nice to see so many people participating." she said, trying to join into the conversation.

She was lying and every bit of her muscles were relaxed. Stress was no more. She didn't care about the eyes which looked at her as a symenestra and didn't mind if they were thinking or not why she was there. She wanted the attention right now. She had to show it she is there. "For me too, and I could use to this massage everyday. Changing my forms is strange sometimes you know."

She looked at the Konti. They were pale as well, but she could not mistake them, she was living with many of them at the Pearl House after all. But she had never met with them before. She nodded and smiled at her. Eida's fangs could be seen a little. "Indeed!" She added. "I wonder if I have a chance. As this or the other way. Looks can be deceiving you know."

Visitors were behind the curtains, talking with other participants. Eida expected they won't talk with her. Beads were given to some girls, from the men. She turned back to the two Kontis. "So since, when do you live here? What are you doing in Riverfall? I'm a gardener at Vyctoria's conservatory." She waved her hand, gesturing she had enough massage for little time. She sat up, took her robe back but she was still talking with them. She was looking at her big black claws and was wondering if it's worth to do anything with them. The night would come anyway.

As words were exchanged, Venya simply listened. She was enjoying the working of hands along her back to make a reply. Her eyes travelled over to each of the other girls as they spoke. The second was another Konti, shorter but no less attractive looking than Venya herself. Venya's eyes looked over the other Konti as she wondered whether or not this was her first time as well. She was about to ask when her attention is directed back towards the Symenestra. The girl was talking about changing forms and something about chances. Chances for what? Venya felt slow as her mind seemed to be blurred with the amount of pleasure she was feeling from the relief she was experiencing. "Yes they can, very deceiving," she commented, her voice soft with a hint of bitterness in it as if experiencing the unpleasant feeling of an distasteful memory popping up.

Venya turned her head the other way, closing her eyes a chime as she listened to the female's questions. That turned her focus back towards the Symenestra. Her eyes opened now, she focused on the female before instructing the one giving her a massage to move up to her shoulders. "I arrived late last season. I'm a falconer," she answered plainly, just getting to the point and not giving off details. With that she gave the slight nod of her head before turning back to the Konti. "So, I never asked, but is this your first time as well?" she asked, "At the festival I mean." Her head rested back on the table before she told the woman that that was enough for now. She then just rested there for a moment before sitting up and pulling her robe back on.

"I'm afraid I did not get either one of your names," she pointed out, looking back and forth between the two of them, "I'm Venya." As she spoke she pulled her hair out from under the collar of her robe. She let it fall in its somewhat wild mess onto her shoulder. Ruffling it a bit, she wondered what she should have done to it later when she realized she was getting to far ahead of herself. First she would have to be sure to get all done at this tent that she wanted. Letting her hands fall down in her lap, she looked at her nails. They needed to be done. That much was for sure. Though what needed to be done with them was totally lost on the Konti they belonged to. Venya was never good with that really. Pursing her lips slightly she thought about it before sighing and looking back up. She would worry about that later. Right now there were much more interesting thing to worry about. Like the continuation of this conversation.

She was only looking at Venya. She was a falconer, Eida liked that. She also nodded about her question. It was her first time maybe last time but who knows. She was checking her nails again. Would it have any effect if she would do manicure? She will change and it would be so unnatural for her. But once in a while she could do it perhaps. She was about ask when she quickly changed her mind. "I would like to..... have a feet massage please."

She thought it's better this way. On her foot she had black claws too but it wasn't as long as at her hands. When they started to massage her feet the pleasure was bigger than when they did it at her back. She walked a lot with barefeet, because it felt better for her but they could get tired.

Then she looked back at Venya. "Oh how rude of me! I'm Eida, daughter of Leth." She said, also she had a wild smile. "Nice to meet you, Venya!"


OOCOkay I wanted to wait, but I think we can move on a little and sorry for the short reply!

Venya watches the Symenestra, intrigued by the being. She watches as the girl simply nods. So this is her first time here. Seems like there must be a lot of first timers here this year. That, or she has just only run into first timers so far. The girl looks at her nails next which she seems to have in common with Venya as the Konti has looked at her nails trying to decide what to do with them several times already today. The Konti looks over at the Symenestra’s nails. Long, curved, and black. They remind her of something a raptor might have for claws.

Venya sits there for a moment, her gaze drifting away from the Sym and looking around at the other parts of the room and the other people in it. Some people are carry quiet conversations with others. Soft rings of laughter can be heard every so often. Some people are completely quiet, just enjoying the relaxation a massage brings them. "Oh how rude of me! I'm Eida, daughter of Leth." Venya’s attention is drawn back to the pale girl with black claws for nails, "Nice to meet you, Venya!" Venya gives a soft smile, nodding slightly.

”Nice to meet you as well,” the Konti says pleasantly, ”Daughter of Leth, moon god right? Ethaefal? Or just very devoted to the god?” Venya hasn’t met many Ethaefal in her life. A small handful, if that. So this is interesting. It had not crossed her mind that this Symenestra might be one. Whether or not she is though remains a mystery. Till she answers anyway.
