OOC note: I was meant to post this up yesterday but got a job I'd been hoping for so forgot the date. Please use your wonderful imaginations and pretend this was on the 1st.
Feel free to notice with pride something you provided (sold or traded) to Mallory for the feast. Bring whatever items you grow or trade or even offspring for blessing. Hunted items count too!
You can also be in the band if you want! Any way you see to work yourself in please do so!
You are also welcome to have been asked by a very hyper mallory to help set up and RP doing so.

Mallory and the rest of the amazing creatures had been working together to set up the area for the blessing. The harvests were coming in steadily every day and it was important that everyone celebrate those who worked hard for the people. After all, what would help a hangover better than a good sweet cup of khalua with cream when Akos had bought her one too many drinks? And who would make it without the great producers of khal. And the fruit pies, and orange juice. She smiled, there were so many things she'd learned to appreciate since being turned. Her sense of taste was certainly increased. She fluffed the giant cushions spread around the feast area. There were huge tables piled high with fresh meats, some roasted some more rare, vegetables and fruits, even the finest of creams and some fresh buns from the bakers. She'd carefully sourced each items from locals and they were going to enjoy each bite she was sure. She'd personally hunted for some of the game that had been roasted and plated. Huge cauldrons of bubbling stews were placed on tripods over the fires spread around. Carved wooden trenchers and needed eating items were spread around. She'd grabbed a few folks from the serving staff and begged them to pass drinks around ensuring no one was thirsty. She wouldn't lie, she'd spent generously from the King's treasury to ensure every creature could have a good time. If it was a drink it was here, if it was a meal that she could find it was here. She'd even gotten a few of the dark dwelling creatures to help her make items.
She glanced around at the huge dais set up nearby, it had thrones for all the needed people, and a large amount of benches for others. The sizes varied with tiny ones for the wee brownies and fae in the front, and regular human sized ones that would fit Mallory and many of the elves as well, further back were ones for giants, orcs, and those who would see more easily over the others. Near the very front were cushions for those who preferred that, and the children, of course. The drapery was orange and green and brown with leaves and other such things woven in and around items. Some of the taller or more brave creatures had helped with that, as everyone knew, Mallory was quite afraid of heights. She felt it looked wonderful and there was a huge table along the entire front so that a portion of each persons blessed harvest could be collected and donated to the temple to give to those who needed it.
Over to the far side of the area was a huge space for dancing and a local set of musicians were already practicing. Pleasing the young vampire to no end. Their music was fun. There were some game items should anyone get bored. Dice for dice master and scoring cards, eggs that had been boiled and colored for egg races, eggs that had been boiled with inks to paint them, ribbons for two legged races, even some simple balls for catch, or fetch if Edwin were here. She'd tried to think of everything. There was even a sheltered area for creatures that were not fond of the light, and a fire pit for those not fond of the cold, though she'd enclosed it to ensure no children or Mallorys fell in.
