Oh Doctor, you have no idea how apt that is.

During the Feywilds masquerade party, my costume was literally a rainbow suit with a rabbit mask. I'm the guy for you!

You would've loved the masquerade, I think. It was a party designed to make everyone dress up as dramatically as possible.

Yep, should be all good. I work very fast.

If the Fey ever invite us back, I'm sure we'll have another grand party to go with it. They're not normally very friendly since Thorne tried to kill all of them way back. But we get some attention, being our awesome selves. They're my kind of people. When there was a fight at the party, they just cheered them on.

I think it was more of a brawl than an honest attempt to murder each other, but it ended very fast. No one's tried to kill another Summoned as far as I know. I did consider shooting Goro multiple times but we still didn't, and he was a war mongerer.

The food and drinks were GREAT. The costumes were great. Honestly, one of the top five experiences I've had here. I'd definitely go back if they invited. They're not very fond of tall people though. Everything was so tiny there.

We haven't had anyone like him since, far as I know, outside of whoever that fellow was who caused the rifts.

Maybe they will! It'd be strange if they popped by just to look at us and then ran off again.
