[Balmung] The IIIrd Legion Presents: Winter’s Knell Ball
Winter’s Knell is a Imperial holiday celebrating the coming of winter with the figure known as Father Frost. Tribunus Leonis realizes that many of his cohorts are far away from their friends and family this year, so he’s decided to do something special: the Winter’s Knell Ball!
The Ball will start off outdoors with a traditional snow fight and construction large Father Frost figures. Participants will be divided into teams, the team who is able to build the largest Father Frost and protect it from the other teams will win a special prize: a two day vacation at the Gold Saucer!
Rules for the Father Frost Fight will be posted later.
Following the out door activity, imperials will convey in the ball room. Rousing patriotic speeches and a night of dancing and dining will follow.
This event takes place in the reconstructed Castrum Aquilonis (https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Castrum_Aquilonis) a fortress which sits on top of the mountains of Central Coerthas. It is heavily guarded and unknown to Eorzeans. So don’t think you can get in without a transport and imperial travel papers. Let’s celebrate the end of our first year together, Ave, Imperator!
