The best dressed will receive a prize of regals. Patterns of stars, constellations, planets, and other various universe themed dress showings will be permitted. The most gorgeously crafted pieces and outfits will win. Jewelry and head-pieces will also be allowed and counted in the overall mockup.

This is the night to shine in all your glory! Women- Royal blue, light blue, and fine purple robes Optional: Diamonds and pearls, star embroidery. Men- Dark blue, black, and white robes. Optional: Neck-pieces, medallions, formal uniforms. Regulations: All must write to attend, there will be a list at the door.

Application Username: OkaDoka Character name: Vivana Avalorn IC letter to Venra’ora, composed in Modern Altalar: Safe tidings upon you. It came as a welcome surprise to me that one among my people had been considering the fineries and niceties of life while I occupied myself overmuch with the pains and struggles of ours on the ground, and of course rote administration. I should hope that a desire to attend from one such as myself would be met with acceptance, judging that I do rule the Est'alorn of this city, and considering what I have accomplished for them in recent days. It would do me great pride to meet my most prodigious and artistic subject, and bear witness to the event she has organized. We will speak soon after today, I hope.

The court of stars is a gift I bestow upon us and all other races in an attempt to spread knowledge of our history and customs. We may speak whenever you call upon me, though I often nestle myself in the realm of the Rose court. Stars guide you,

IC letter to Venra’ora: Written in archaic Modern Altalar, inked in deep royal blue; Ancestors' blessings upon you, Venra’ora, Word has reached my office of those festivities you have organised for the enjoyment and benefit of our people. I have long since intended to host a ball of my own, but have been continually foiled by responsibility and happenstance. It would be to my greatest desires to be permitted to attend, and partake in your organisation alongside my kith and kin of the Est'alorn. I wait with bated breath for your response, and wish for your blessing to be one of the many who will celebrate on the night upon which your efforts will fruit.

This event was... nerve-racking to make and design, being so new to the city I did not expect many to be so willing to jump at the opportunity. In my short time here I haven't seen as much of our kin as I perhaps would have hoped, therefore with these flooding applicants I speak my truth when I say I am whole-heartedly pleased. Thank you for writing. Love,
