May we see the fairgrounds, say, a couple years out after Wraithvine and friends visited to safety-test?

Fairs like this tend to travel. Staying in one place tends to make them boring for the locals, and travel is never casual when the journey takes days at best. It was a slow carnival, so the places it visited had up to a week of anticipation before they could attend.

Wraithvine had tested all of it some years ago. Now ze had the chance to enjoy it.

The steam-powered automatons were not merely in good repair, but also in good voice. They could even play more modern songs, once a technician fed the punched cards into the system. The food was -of course- fair food. Indulgent and bad if it ever became a staple. Luxurious, of course. Full of cream or sugar or spices, and often wrapped in some kind of batter. Most of it was offered on a stick.

Challenge #04172-K154: A Very Important Side Quest

A city is having its Founder's Day. The day when a party of adventurers, humans, hellkin, and a few other races, came together to found their own town. And now, it was a large, beautiful city.

The humans have a large, long, parade to celebrate Earth Day. What is Earth Day? It's a day where they remember their homeworld, the beauty of it, how important it is as the starting point of their civilization, and their renewal of a promise to try to avoid the mistakes of the past, lest they ever again risk their future. -- Anon Guest

Challenge #03216-H309: Any Excuse to Party

Some townsfolk lie to Wraithvine and hir friends saying there's a meeting in the big town hall. Managing to get Wraithvine and the rest into the dark hall, suddenly the torches flare and everyone jumps out and shouts "Surprise! Happy Birthday!" With gifts, food, and decorations!

No one actually knew what the real birthday was, but it was decided, because the being was so kind, to throw a birthday party anyway! -- Anon Guest
