Time to Drift into the Mists - Farewell to Fantasy Faire 2025
Click for Bigger
This year my posting of Fantasy Faire started with a dream of Junction. and now its time for Junction to drift into the Mists once more. Becoming just a dream again.
But Junction will rise once more from the Mist and bring with it new worlds to explore and fall in love with in 11 months time. And we will spend that 11 months dreaming of it and how we can help Fight the Unweaver and eliminate the Cancer he brings. Till then we keep dreaming of her.
This year my Faire started with me being preforming for the first time! With Merryjests Wonders show! *photos* and a *video* . It was great fun even if it was mostly standing backstage. But hey, thats theater for you!
This year the annual Kids Roleplay was a little short for a few reasons and almost didn't happen. But the Fantasy roleplay sim Astrium stepped in to make sure something happened! And so that is how we got The Travelers - The Echowrite Quill Which you can read about on the link there and see my photos from it at this link. I'd like to thank Astrium for doing this so last moment and it was still fun!
Now I did miss out on a bus ride this year, not sure how that happened, I'm blaming the power outage we had on that. Nearly three days with out electricity! I Missed Beltane! It also took out some of my planned time to chill and go to shows and things! So I do feel I missed out on a lot of things I did get a few random photos though *link*
I also did a thing halfway through faire that I don't know how many noticed! I'll be making a post about that later this week. But it was TOTALLY MerryJests Fault!
And of course we had the annual year in Meeting. It was totally not a rave. And I did not dress as Jem for it! Photos of the meeting are at here
Some of the regions added things to their build over the run and I took a walk about to try to get photos of those after the faire was closed to the public. You can see those here
Being in Junction as the sims are sent back to the Mist is a lovely special tradition Ive grown to look forwards to. Though this year Junction had a bit of a fit and crashed everyone three times before being officially sent to the mist! Photos here You can watch the last minute of Junction 2025 here, enjoy the music!
I still want that recorder..OH WAIT I FOUND IT Enjoy...
Now to prep for my 23rd Wedding Anniversary on June 1st and for Relay Weekend on June 7th & 8th. I think I may be the main person making Steelheads camp sight this year. ..thats not nerve wracking or anything...

More memories before the wrap up post.
Scrunkle Gulch was such a special sim. Even the mega sized TWI cat was small compared to the cat tree in it! I will miss it so much.
But I have small bits of it to take home thanks to the quest!

If you get the Upgraded hud with outfits this is the lovely Female one by Belle Epoque a special color of their Brie Dress. The male outfit is a recolor of Be's Glade I showed off earlier. There are also dinkie, Tiny and Petite outfits!
The bird is Pax and comes with the hunt pack as well as the lantern!
My plan now is to get the Lavendell hunt done and take random photos about the sims that are more for fun then showing off items by creators. But that will still happen!

Journal entry No.1 April 16, 1883 – In tales whispered around flickering fires, for generations that cave was always a place of legend. As if hidden by the earth itself, kept secret from the world above to preserve the life-force within. The stories passed down speak of flora and fauna that are illuminated by the power of this lush cavern, the grotto walls themselves glittering with energy, but more interestingly tell of a great stag at the heart of it all that gives the gift of life itself. But that’s a legend for you. Every dangerous expedition starts out with one of those. Well, time to pack up. Let’s go see what we find..

On the outside this build looks like an unassuming mountain.
on the INSIDE it is a bio-luminance wonder with fungi plants, a pool that has a surprise in its depths and a stunning giant Deer Skeleton! And you WANT to use the region wind lights here it makes such a difference and its amazing! Go Explore! Buy the bits of the build you want! MUSHROOMS

Sadly Contraptions store is not quite yet open so I cant show anything Walton is selling from the sim but I'm hoping for that big Corpse flower! The build does have a whole lot of great designers and stores to go into. I'm still contemplating getting Aii's just gorgeous and amazing Naga, it comes with so many add ons and people are doing amazing things with it!

Lets move into the things I do have though! Well in this case Adar has it, and it is this super sexy outfit by Somnium called Young Regent. Its gonna make any guy look SOOOOO good.

This outfit by Raven Bell is really just amazing. The Lorien Harem Pants and Top, sold separately. it SPARKLES, it Shimmers! It comes in SO MANY colors and sparkles!

Grasshopper Street is quickly becoming a favorite for period clothing. Their Louise Dress was perfect to match to one of their relay offerings this year! They have a whole slew of accessories themed around the Corpse Flower! I matched the dress with the Corpse Flower Circlet. There's also a hat for the gents!

I have been drooling over this gown since I first saw a friend wearing it. The Lilyveil gown by Stoic isn't new to the faire but there IS a faire color exclusive hud to get! Just, be sure to also buy the dress. But its WORTH it, you can't see the butterfly bow in the back. Different parts of the gown are effected

Zan's once again made a marvelous set of outfits. This year he did a whole stunning Peacock theme. I grabbed the Purple for relay but there is also peacock blue and Albino styles!

This build is amazing and detailed and MUST be experienced in person to fully appreciate it. It is a love letter to art nouveau architecture and just breath taking. The build is full of displays of plants, animals and artifacts. And when you get to the artifact area there are plaques to click to learn what your looking at. Contraptions shop is housed in a stunning Airship parked way at the top. And I am so glad I went on the Lit fest Tour of the build before making this post as it was NOT there when I took the photos in the wee hours of the morning!But really, go see this sim! I can not wait to see what bits of it Walton puts up for sale! I want it ALL....but especially the corpse flower lol.
I took 100 photos of this build so you REALLY must go look at them all! Or better yet go see the build in person!
