Summer's here in force, the sun beating down like a hammer. Fortunately, there's still plenty to do to take your mind off the heat...


A. Swap Market Stalls
The year turns, the seasons change, and the swap market is back in business, here to offer their many exciting new wares for very reasonable prices, honestly, would they lie to you?

It’s no bad way to while away an afternoon, wandering through the rows of colorful stalls and examining the various offerings, both magical and mundane. Maybe you can buy a trinket for a friend, or a treat for yourself?

Besides, it’s nice to have something fun to do, considering the rumors that prom may be cancelled this year. Gossip claims that it’s a punishment for an unclear incident of student misbehavior, and that two seniors and a grad student have been expelled.

Given that no one can actually seem to pin down who the three people in question were, this part is probably pure rumor.

Probably.

(Hey, gossip is a valuable service, too. Can’t stop the market from talking…)

Just try not to take anything without paying. After some incidents last year, they’ve implemented a few new security features.


B. Midsummer Prep
Every good party requires a good deal of preparation beforehand, and various staff and student volunteers are beginning to set up for the upcoming celebration of the changing seasons. This year’s midsummer festival is shaping up to be a fun little affair, with all the usual traditions- food, campfires, ritual combat displays…

What, you’re not used to that last one?

Yes, well, that does explain why the preparations include both hanging up streamers and carefully warding a small wrestling ring against all sorts of magical damage.

Whether you’re here to help with the setup or just observing for the sake of curiosity, they’ll be working on it in bits and pieces for the next several days.


C. Collecting Sunshine
Sunlight has always been potent, as any of the Undead can tell you, and there is a way to save it for a rainy day. Sunstones cut in a particular way are excellent ways to magically store sunlight to be unleashed at later days, or to add to higher-level potions.

It wouldn’t do just to place them in a window and be done with it, no - it has to have direct exposure, paired with the energy of the young holding it up into the sun, or so the staff insist. One may have a sneaking suspicion that this is an excuse to make the students get more exercise.

Oh, come on! It's not like it wasn't obvious!

[ it wasn't obvious to anyone but the one with seer abilities, actually.

romani's clearly pouting at this point, not really swayed by the stranger's measures. that said, he doesn't seem willing to call police or anyone...maybe he just wants to resolve this quietly? ]


Jeez... look, I don't have a lot in the first place. I arrived to this town with literally nothing. [ he sighs. ] Do you...do you need something? Anything?
