City of Shadow: The Feast of All Fools
some mood music
Miir, The City of Shadow, prepares to celebrate.
Pink lanterns line the normally dark and gloomy streets. Children prepare their costumes to go out and gather treats. Carnivals and entertainers draw the people out into the daylight. The vandals and jesters plan their most elaborate pranks.

Pink lanterns line the normally dark and gloomy streets. Children prepare their costumes to go out and gather treats. Carnivals and entertainers draw the people out into the daylight. The vandals and jesters plan their most elaborate pranks.
The nobles of the Great Houses chat about the annual Masquerade Ball even as they avoid speaking about the fall of the previous Lord of the Tower, or the weakness of his successor. There is no need -- the knives will be out soon enough, and everyone knows it. Tension builds behind the smiles. There will be a war soon, and a new Lord will rise and bring their House to power.
No one comments on the disappearances. Miir is a dangerous place after dark. If you're caught by The Shadows after curfew, well, you only have yourself to blame, don't you? Maybe there are more than usual but...no, it's nothing to worry about.
Instead, they speak of Le Crique d'Aberrations, and the new show the troupe says it's planning for the Feast. Those Caliban may be unnatural abominations with unholy powers -- but they sure know how to throw a party!
One night a year
The rules are thrown out
The meek are made powerful
The haughty are humbled
Everything old is made new again
Dress as far from your self as you can
And raise a glass
for tonight we reveal our true selves
All hail The Lord of Misrule!
and
The Feast of All Fools
