It Has Only Just Begun

In the days that follow the closing of the Faire, I often find myself feeling like the classic “stranger in a strange land.”

I know that I am not alone in this feeling.

Fantasy Faire Open Through Monday, May 8th!

Today is Sunday, the last official event day, which means Live Auction! If you have fallen in love with this year’s Fairelands and want to bid on parts, pieces and mementos, now’s your chance. Now is the time. This is the Way!

Live Auction begins at NOON SLT and lasts until Her High Faireness Elizabeth Tinsley has gone through her list, and checked it thrice, and all the pieces of the Fairelands have found their way to new homes. Pack more than just coffee to go, this will take a while! If you wish to know how to bid, please read this info.

Is that a wrap, then? I hear you ask. I imagine you ask. Nope! We have still the whole Monday to explore, shop, finish quests, and simply hang out in our favourite spots of the year. Fantasy Faire is open to public through Monday, May 8th. As long as it’s Monday in Second Life Time, the portals remain open.
