Returning Home

The Fairelands of 2024 have now drifted back into the Mists, the portal connection cut, us Fairelanders left on this side, feeling somewhat confused, befuddled even. Time is suddenly moving at regular pace, forward, onwards, instead of wrapping us in a separate reality time loop where every day lasts both a year and a second at the same time. Faire-time of the year is over and the boring rules of nature set back in place.

We return home with new shinies, loot consisting of fish and minnows, frogs and wootables, Theo and Tammy. We light candles, locate our favourite new mementos to place around the house, and decide to postpone inventory sorting to tomorrow, or next week, but absolutely definitely before next spring. Surely.

We take a short nap, waking up the following day not sure what year it even is, grab some coffee, and then check out the numbers from the absolutely real and existing Faire News Gazette delivered by the Faire Bus Service near you.

Fantasy Faire 2024 relayed 30,621,089 linden dollars (122,484.35 USD). This brings our 16-year total to 218,512,700 linden dollars (874,050 USD). The critters indulging in morning cinnabun crumbs think those are a lot of big numbers, and cheer. They cheer, and so should you. For yourself, and for your fellow Fairelanders, for the fight against the Unweaver.

Thank you.

Now go forth and Faire on!
