"To those intrepid adventurers, the brave and heroic of Eorzea, Hingashi, Othard, and Elsewhere, I call upon each of you to take the opportunity this Starlight to be a hero through sharing in the joy of song.
While many of us can look forward to a very merry Starlight celebration, there are some who may not be as lucky.  Ispeak primarily to the plight of so many of children of Eorzea, as well as the recently liberated regions within Gyr Abania and Othard. Some of these children are suffering through illness, such as those who currently reside in the children's ward of Frondale’s Phrontistery.  Others, such as the children of the Brume go days without a meal, let alone hope for warm clothing or a toy to bring them joy at Starlight. And finally, after recent events throughout Hydaelyn, there are so many children who have now lost one or both parents in the conflicts of Doma or Gyr Abania, may find themselves with heartbreak instead of joy.
While we may not be able to make sick children well, raise every child out of the Brume, or bring back lost loved ones, there are some things that we CAN do.
We can bring to these children clothing, toys, and a Starlight feast.  We can help bring to these children the very thing that the Smilebringers first intended to bring to the children of Eorzea – hope.
However, clothing, toys, feasts – these things cost gil, asany Monetarist would be quick to remind you.Â
And so I bring to you, those who are musically inclined andthose who are not, a proposal:
I, Dylan Thorne, introduce to you…
What’s involved? Why,I’m so glad you asked! The Very Merry Starlight Singing Telegram Service would be a service provided by the amazing and incredible bards, troubadours, and songbirds of Eorzea who would be so kind as to volunteer their time and talents to singing to the lucky loved one of your choice! There would be no set fee involved, but donations of any amount would be welcome, including not only gil, but food, clothing and toys to be shared with those children in need.Â
If you are interested in this service, either as a customer desiring to hire the Very Merry Starlight Singing Telegram Service, or as a performer who wishes to donate their time, please contact by postmoogle, Dylan Thorne, care of the Carline Canopy, Gridania.Â
 Please kindly send all notes ofinterest by the first day of the next moon.
Â
With a Starlight Smile,

Dylan Thorneâ€
This was just a silly idea that I thought would help enhance the 'holiday spirit' within our RP community. No gil would be exchanged and would be RP only. Â
Look at this as an opportunity to show your in game friends how much they mean to you or just as an opportunity for public (and good natured) IC embarrassment! That said, please don't use this as a means to harass anyone. Don't be the reason why we can't have nice things.
To register your interest in this event, please use the appropriate form below!Â
For people wishing to 'Hire' a telegram, use this form.
For people wishing to sing telegrams, use this form.
Once all information has been received by December 1st, I will match performers with customers so that a time, date and place for the telegram delivery can be arranged!
