" i don't think i've ever seen so much gold. " she admits, hands folding behind her as she glances across the ballroom. " i've read about the king and i've pictured this castle at least a hundred times - but i'm not sure how to feel. somehow it's all a bit lacking. "

easter passes with little applause, the children in town taking part in the year easter egg hunt across town. the adults look forward, more, to the event announced at the weekend's end.

jonathan mackenzie, director of the prince of maldonia theatre corps, announces a gala to raise funds for the upcoming musical. he claims it will be one better than any year before, and the title will be released on the night of - where a signup list for auditions will be posted. as with all things in the theatre - there will be an air of mystery for the event as the theme is announced as a masquerade.

the night comes quickly, and all who wish to attend flock to the emerald city art gallery - the venue for the gathering. tickets are $20 a person, with drinks being an additional charge throughout the evening, but the night is sure to have great entertainment and excitement, as even for a fundraiser the mackenzies have left no expense spared.

the masquerade proves to flicker pointed memories for many, as the memory of the masked ball that had marked king midas's 20th year of reign. six months before the curse swept across the enchanted forest, he'd invited all those across the lands - his only rule that all magic be left at the door. to enforce this, he had a spell made to ensure no magic could be used within the ballrooms.

with that we announce our second official event - or rather events! threads can take place either at midas's masquerade ( tagged ef.midasmask ) or the charity masquerade ( tagged ef.musicalmask ). any threads from previous event should now be dropped, unless pre-plotted, in which case we ask you begin to finish those up.

the fundraiser masquerade event takes place april 15th, but both events ic will run from april 10 - 26 ( based upon interest ). we'd love to see edits of your muses' costumes for both!

THE INFAMOUS PUCK attends midas' masquerade ball, appearing for all the world as just another eccentric noble. though when they wake in the morning, the people of chrysos may find spoiled milk and broken eggs amongst their pantries. can't expect the notorious fairy to go a whole night without causing some kind of trouble, after all.

princess eilonwy of llyr in attendance of king midas' masquerade ball, the enchanted forest. adorning traditional dress, her gown is compromised of delicate and plain fabric, accented by a sheer material on the sleeves and neckline with lace detailing. magnolious and obstinate as she, her mask is a hand welded brass with foreboding horns -- reminiscent of the horned king himself, signifying her entrapment at his hand, centered by a large black stone that represents protection. . . an immovable piece of treasure. her headpiece is shaped like a crown, that hovers above her head, with various crystals and a crescent moon, the emblem for the royal house of llyr.
