    Softly shimmering gold flakes catch the light whenever she moves, delicate gilded and diamond scales extenuate the luminescent sapphires that are her eyes. The ocean lives in Sera's eyes, perfectly cut sapphires, gleam in the light. Deeper shades always shifting like the tide. The scales trail up to her temples and forehead. Her hair reaches down her back, brushing the back of her calves, spun silver and gold. Perfectly placed streaks of sea green are seen throughout her hair. Very fine diamond dust falls loose from her hair when she moves, reflecting rainbows from the light. The scales on her hands are dulled by the simple fact that her hands are translucent. There was an iridescent scale like skin that pulled delicately up from her ears. The membrane shimmered and created three curly points.

    Cherry blossoms gilded in gold bloom from her hair, tumbling down as a warm rejuvenating spring breeze gently kisses the air with the scent of freshly cut grass. The sound of birds singing can be heard as the wildflowers grow and bloom in vibrant colors where she walks, swaying and lively in the breeze.

    Treasured Nix

    If you asked the Nix, the Season flew by, bringing Spring front and center again. And it was always the time when she was the busiest, in and out of the Tavern, preparing for the Coronation. Of course, it wasn’t just her, the rest of the Court was working equally as hard.

    Not that she would complain, she was proud of her Season and what they had built within the Freehold and what they contributed. And this year would be no different.

    The first thing you would notice is the Spring Hollow, the Tavern, has grown. Immensely! It is now a sprawling, fantastic treetop estate. Reaching high into the treetops, built into and out of a massive tree.

    Power had been run to the Tavern yet again, because Sera couldn’t get enough of adding whimsical lights to the interior and exterior. Candles in hazy glass containers had been mixed in with the soft glow of the lights. The flickering of the flames looking like stars shining in a clear night sky. Flowers from the Hedge had been artfully, and tastefully arranged around the room.

    This year, she went with something a bit different, a table was setup near the entrance with small succulents in various colored vases. Each had a tag attached with directions for care, and fun little facts about the plant itself. Nestled around the plants were glass domes with live plants arranged inside, each a variation of the other, some with moss, some with flowers, some with a mixture. But one thing was clear, these were there to be taken if one desired. Either a succulent, or a glass orb, or even both.

    Spring had come together to place an elegant Feasting Table front and center of the main hall. It seemed to grow out of the very floor itself, wooden branches wrapping among themselves to form the legs. The food on display, ready to be eaten, some was rich and luxuriant, some strange, from the Hedge itself. In the center of the table is a bowl of five goblin fruits of one type.

    A special table had four distinct wine glasses, one for each Season, each hand painted. Another table had various drinks and teas arranged, each with a hand written card saying what was in it. And of course, the bar was stocked if anyone wanted anything special.

    Outside had been turned into a gathering area. There were tables of various sizes placed around, some even made of repurposed wooden pallets with varying sized pillows placed around them. Gauzy material was draped over them. Here and there were tables that could be stood at, and some with chairs so you could sit and relax. Blankets of various sizes had been laid out with more pillows and tea lights. The open space was inviting, encouraging people to talk and be comfortable.

    All in all, a more laid back, but still glamorous Spring Coronation!

    Let’s party!

    Okay @me after Seraphina puts Glamour into the Wyrdstone gaining the Spring crown (Which she then can describe!!). Doing so binds the Courts, and their Courtiers to the Freehold, all of the Courtless Changelings need to place one Glamour into the Wyrdstone as well. You need to do this to keep your current Status, or to gain Status 1 with the Freehold!

    Kane Harlow Gawain Avellone ! After Sera spends her Glamour you guys can spend 1 Glamour and gain Freehold Status 1

    R'lyeh hadn't done anything is too-long. Recluse hiding. Afraid-Winter-hibernating. But now! Now it was Spring and she-they-Frehold-home had been invited to the Spring Hollow again and Whooooo it was nice-big-fancy.

    R'lyeh had to swallow down the fear of dirtying-sullying-destroying something this beautiful, and steps through and into the treehouse-tavern proper on her nifty new saved-all-her-tips boots, they were yellow, and she liked them.

    And she even tried for nice clothes! Not her suit. She'd worn that for Winter and Summer and well. She might need a new suit. But this was for Spring! Verdent-green-growing-rebirth. So. New clothes! And by new she means ones that aren't stained-torn-old. A skirt that was black since that looked good next to her boots. And it was good-great-best for the twirl effect. Which was good. Yes. And an old faded AC/DC band Tee which she cut the bottom off, to crop it. Because Spring and yes.

    "....hi?" she calls out into the space. her tails swish-swish and her hair drip-drip-drops. Was she early?

    oh no she was early. oh no. she might throw up.

    Mien: Unearthly paleness with the only color being the redness at the tips of her fingertips and the brown fuzz of her shriveled wings that protrude from her shoulders. Eyes as black as the void, with nearly no whites to her eyes. Thin and lanky to the point of being skeletal.

    Molly also hadn't been around for a while. She was still around, of course, but she hadn't been near much of the freehold in a long time. New books and the like had distracted her, to the point where she was pretty sure she had forgotten to eat a few times. It was nice to be able to breathe the air of Spring as she stepped into the Hollow, a wide grin on her face as she did so. "Oh hi there! Have we met before?" Molly asked of the Elemental that was also in the room before turning to wave to Seraphina. Her own wings were ragged and held in a relaxed position despite the raggedness.

    "Hi Sera!" she also called to Sera once she saw her.

    Kane was a bit nervous.

    It was his first time to the Sacramento freehold. His first official event in the city. And? He was to broke to dress up. It wasn't an uncommon story for people like him to begin with, but adding in reality as a changeling and he just couldn't figure out work yet. So the cyborg enters the freehold in a shirt he bought from a clearance bin and some lightly worn jeans. His black boots were also slightly worn, though nothing was to the point of having holes. Which meant it was okay to wear to an official function right? Hopefully.

    The elemental came marching into the treehouse. His skinplates were lightly tanned. Mostly from sleeping in parks for a few days of the past week, but he found a motel to shower and shave in so it was okay. The metallic studs were still scattered across his face and arms and appeared lightly polished.

    Chin up, halo glowing softly behind his head, he marched forward. Then he slowed to take in all that the hollow had going on. The plants. The furniture. The food. Wait, food?

    "Fuck yes."

    The words escaped before the speaker realized. Then he stopped, eyes locked with Rlyeh the room. Was it rude to curse in front of a lady? Maybe all the crude meant she didn't hear him? Wait, the guy with ground down shrapnel in his skin should definitely not be judging or mein based assumptions.

    "Uh, hi." He smiles at the ladyfox as he approaches her. "I'm Kane. Crimson Knight of the Summer Court. Or I was in the last freehold? Mostly just Kane now. Possibly Crimson Knight? Possibly rambling. Definitely looking for Circe."

    God someone stop him....

    "Love AC DC by the way. And you are?"


    He told himself to stop there.

    R'lyeh starts, first at the butterfly "Hi...lo," mushing the two words together. "Yes-maybe-I-think." she says, looking at eyes-fractal-voids. "Winter Solace?" she guesses that was the last Freehold thing the drowned fox went to.

    Oh. There it is, that feeling like she wants to vomit. It's an old friend. She doesn't like but it's familiar. "Circe-queen's not. here. Yet. I mean." looking at the Maybe-probably-yes-Crimson-knight. The new better-than-you-Summer. "hello-Kane. I'm R'lyeh. Summer. Um. New Summer. Since last Summer. Ish." she offers, eyes tracing-lost in the halo of Summer-light around the pretty-pretty probably-still-a-knight. "Ya! it's a band that is good. Yes." one she wouldn't-couldn't-didn't(?) listen to Before, but now's not then. So. Yes.

    The real side of Jasper looks very similar, tall and lanky with a lithe build. The glaring difference is his head: a large shaggy head of what looks like an Irish Wolfhound rests on his shoulders. A pair of expressive green eyes and alert ears give him an alert and kind look to his features. He still has that same rugged good looks about him, despite the blocky canid snout he has. His leather jacket looks very well made and hangs on his lanky form almost like a second skin, the furred interior looking soft and blacker than the night.

    Coyote

    Jasper arrives in his usual garb: a pair of jeans that have seen better days, boots that look scuffed and well-worn, and a green graphic t-shirt beneath his leather jacket. The shirt looks the newest of his garments but even it seems to be showing some wear as it hangs on his skinny, underfed form. Only the leather jacket seems to be immune to his general grunge, the black leather looking supple with large pockets and a fur lining along the interior that looks blacker then the night.

    The giant Wolfhound Beast ducks down as he steps into the area, his ears brushing a branch as he looks around the hollow. He's not been in the Spring Hollow yet so everything is new to him. His black nose pad is twitching like mad as the dog-headed man makes his way into the gathering area, taking in the scents of the area, but most especially the smell of foods. His nose also catches the scents of the others, some he recognizes, some he doesn’t.

    He gives a wave over to R’lyeh, giving a smile to the oil-dripping Summer before he takes a peek at the others near her. The Darkling looks vaguely familiar but he doesn’t recall a name right off the bat. The metal-skinned man though is a different story. When the Beast’s gaze falls to him, he doesn’t feel that usual sense of belonging and safety when he looks at him and that intrigues him more. He steps over to grab himself something to drink before he ambles closer. “’Ello.”

    Circe enters cutting a crisp figure with one of her usual suits and custom boots. On her lapel shines the the Summer Brooch showing her affiliation. Not that the Summer Mantle blasting out didn't make it clear to any Lost she encountered.


    The red tie of her suit is a match for her pupils, most certainly an intentional choice. Circe looks up and around, letting loose a whistle at the increased size of Spring's Hollow. Made Summer's look like a hovel. Which it was she'd admit that.


    She was unperturbed by the risk of grass stains from the seating area as she heads to the gathering present. There was her Summer, with an unknown and possible Summer? Ooooh, and that was a perfect opportunity. She waves to Seraphina but makes an effort to be quiet before she gets up to R'Lyeh and the noob.


    "And fitting fer ya R'Lyeh," she cheerfully says, "As you totes rock," coming up beside her fellow Summer with a smile and a cheerful support. Extrovert is showing. Then looks to the porcelain Kane. "Theoretical would be more fair. Have ta be the Fairest when giving out ranks," she pokes her own cheek, "Don't really have a choice in my fairness. I believed we talked."


    She waves her arms wide and smirked, "I am Circe. Ahem," she waves to the others present widely, "Hi everybody," just like Doctor Nick. Then turns back to Kane, "Welcome theoretical Summer soldier of Sacramento. What's yer violence of choice? Mine is guns."


    And isn't that such a Summer question to ask.

    Smith

    The Paladin of Shadows makes his arrival. On this occasion his suit is light and grey with brown shoes; a green handkerchief is artfully arranged in his breast pocket as a concession to the Emerald; and his effusive curls are out: freed from the braids which have been his signature this winter passed, his beard explodes and pours down his chest, his mouth barely visible in the riotous whorls of hair. A series of rings adorn his fingers - not all sport glass gems.

    The burned dwarf moves with purpose, head bobbing respectful salutes to the Sovereign's present Circe Seraphina Origins Orianna as he makes the beverages and the provender from the Hedge. He eyes the Mannikin Kane Harlow Xander - a new and unfamiliar presence - who has been pinned, apparently between the Crimson Sovereign and @Ryleh Saber Sloth . His attention moves on: cutting, no hacking into one of the cakes from the Hedge. He wrests a large chunk from the confectionary and lumbers over to the teas.

    Thus armed, with tea and cake, Anatole pauses to take stock of the setting and the assembled Lost.

    Beast

    The wildness that infuses a Beast gives her a supernatural affinity with animals. A Beast gains the benefit of the 8 again rule when using the Animal Ken Skill, and receives a free Specialty for the one animal that most reflects the Beast’s seeming. That same wild nature gives a Beast a powerful personal magnetism. A Beast’s player can spend points of Glamour to add to dice pools involving Presence and Composure. Each point of Glamour spent adds one die to one dice pool.

    Once per scene, the player may spend one Glamour to surround the Flamesiren with a blazing flame-like aura. Anyone looking at the Flamesiren must make a successful Resolve + Composure roll or suffer a two-dice penalty to all actions until the character decides to douse the aura or the scene ends, thanks to the distraction.

    Vincent Black walked in. Taking in the surroundings he walked up Circe and the new faces, "Want to introduce me to your friends?" he asks with a wink. He was not normally fond of this type of crowd, more akin to his former wandering ways but he was slowly taking a liking to the few folks he hung around.
