Eldorzi and I first started to explore this sim before Halloween. Then life happened and we didn't get to finish all the stories yet.

Castle Dracula, is an absolutely amazing build . Created by Wanders Nowhere , YES, THAT Wanders of Dinosaurs and dragons Prehistorica - The Dawn Kingdoms. Has besides giving us the giant lizards of the grid. Also has given the grid three interactive classic novels to experience, All in one place. The first one is the story of Dracula, it is free to experience, you get a hud and explore the castle looking for key moments to tell the story. BUT for 200L each you can also experience the stories of Frankenstein and Carmilla. Eldorzi and I did Dracula but have not yet managed to have the time to do the other two. We plan to though!

The build itself is just, a masterpiece, and a lot of it is done pre mesh as well. So many amazing rooms and places to explore. The library is out of a dream, each fireplace is its own work of art. Frankenstein's lab is exactly how you would want it to be! I could have taken so, so many more photos but resisted. But so many locations are a photographers dream! And there is a way to pop in and walk about with out getting the hud. But you miss a lot with out it and the hud lets you tp about. So at least get the free one with Dracula!

You can see all my photos of the build at this link, As I said I could have taken SO MANY more so as you explore you will see a lot I didn't photograph

This post is half to show off the wonderful 100th Build by Cica and half to show off the outfit I have on. 

 

Violaine Villota of Fancy Fairy is someone I have known for a decade now, Good lord thats longer then I thought. ANYWAY ten years ago I contacted Violaine IRL to commission a pair of her wings she makes. Her work is amazing and you can see my wings at this link here The coloring was loosely patterned off of my SL wings.

 

 She's had a Second Life presence since longer then I have been in SL. But took a break and now is working to learn mesh, Bento, PBR and all the new things she missed! So I just have to show off her work. I'm not switching to her wings, unless she makes my RL wings in SL lol. But she is very much worth going and checking out her work! She did up a blog post about the gown and wings that you can read here. 

 

Her newest release is at an event called Fall Frolic at Fae Faire and the gown is brand new. Its made for reborn but due to the nature of the corsets bustline being mesh and not part of the reborn body I have no issue wearing it with Legacy. But you do get some CLEAVAGE with it. She is working making a modesty underlayer for it though, as well as versions for other bodies! The new colors for her Bento Titania wings match the gowns colors perfectly and both have a lovely shine to them. These wings are based on one of her most popular RL wing styles and shes made a whole new mesh for this release. 

 

 Now into the Sim I explored! It is artist Cica Ghost's 100th sim build! I've explored and blogged many of her builds in the past. So of course this was a must! I love her whimsy and sense of color. Always experimenting and always a delight! 

 

This 100th build is a crayon box of colors. Bright Primay and Secondary colors bring a happy feeling as you walk about. OR you can take a duck bike and ride about. Flowers, people, homes, a cow in socks, a dragon, cats and an alien are all about for you to find and explore. Many items have an animation in them. And you can buy many parts of the build in her stores! As well as items from past builds. 

 

You can see all my photos of the build at this link, go and play around

Awenia Faerie is an amazing and whimsical build tucked away into a corner of Second life. Its full of interesting things to wander about it for just about anyone. Cats and faeries and mushrooms and books and all kinds of things! 

But if you've done Fantasy Faire for as long as I have, what it is is a treasure trove of Memories. One of a kind items that got auctioned off are worked into the build, that haven't been seen since the sim it was made for went into the mist. The Shrine tree from 2019 and even things from more recent Faires! I loved every moment there and cherished the memories it brought back. You can see all my photos of the build at this link, but really go see it your self!

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...
