The beach is rather crowded this fine evening as fires roar, providing both light and dancing shadows as folks murmer and talk. Many folks seem to be soaking wet, as if they'd just come out of the water. The few clouds in the sky do nothing to block a marvelous display, the ocean is rather well lit by the fire and the moon, although something seems off about it. A few rugged looking folks pant on the beach, drying themselves off as best they can manage. "Come on in! The waters fine!" calls a dugong in a top hat, smiling from behind his moustache. "I've got so much in store for you, come now! Who's next? Is this the best Firmament has got?" he cries and to this a few of the crowd replies with a very well timed "NO!".

Selena settles down a fair distance from the store. "Swimming?" She ponders, yawning quietly and taking a sip from a bottle of some kind of drink - probably cider knowing her habits - though she doesn't seem to intend to move further towards to the waterline.

Upon hearing that there is a contest going on at the beach Bleddyn couldn't help but visit, being the good sailor he is. The large wolf stops by Selena and leans over to smile at her before turning to the water with crossed arms. "Lon' time no see lass, don't suppose ya remember me but do ya got any idea wat's goin on here?"

Siyu will step onto the beach, he stays far away from the sand, he's dressed in silks and lot of it at that point, he's certinally not going to go to the sand and to the water, he'll just watch for now, what in the world is going on?

The dugong recieves yet another "NO!" from the crowd and a big grizzly steps foward, flexing for the crowd and shouting out "My form desires to proceed!". The dugong chuckles and guides the bear to the waters edge. He then takes a box, which sloshes about as he moves it and dumps it into the water, and a glowing fish emerges. As soon as it hits the water it begins to slowly swim away, the bear taking off after it. He makes graps as long as he can before he's forced to take to the deepr water, swimming in vain as the fish darts away.

Selena raises her head and tilts head, peering past the crowd for a few moments. "Well, I'm glad I'm not there. Hello, Bleddyn. And Siyu! Good luck. I caught wind of that petition." She notes. "I'm glad there's no mandatory participation here."

Bleddyn purses his lips together in thought as he watches that bear amble around in the water. "That... didn't quite answer my question Selena, I mean... what are these land-lubbers trying ta do? Eh?"

Siyu looks over to Selena and he bows his head, "Thank you, I thank you, I think it's going well and it should be good, it should work excellently" he smiles and nods. He looks out to sea, and is certianlly NOT going to participate in this, no water, nope!

Competition! And competition can mean prizes. And prizes can further mean food, or perhaps money to buy said food. Anything event by the beach is calling for a good soaking, so Dio leaves his gear and coat within his room and promptly speeds over to the location at leonine speeds. Or at least Dio speed, which may involve some distractions and detours. "Am I late lads?" A panting lion shouts out as he joins the crowd. "I'm 'ere to win the whatever competition! What must I do to obtain the prize? Is it swimmin'? I 'ate swimmin'. Leads to a soggy mane I'll tell ya, but if it's fer food o' somethin', perhaps I won't mind a good evenin' dip."

Running a little late perhaps, the tigress hoped that she hadn't missed the mystery contest - the last one had been quite amusing after all. Armour not donned this time, the feline arrived on the beach in just her vest and tattered pants with her hair gathered and pinned up. Gazing out across the crowd, she heard the splashing but didn't quite make it to the gathering in time to see the box or the shiny fish. "Mmm..what is the event..?" Kaelli murmured, thinking out loud more than anything else.

The bear grumbles and kicks some sand as he walks off, being greeted by his wife who pats his back. "You did adequate dear." she says as she looks back to her book.

Fresh fish cooked before your eyes! You like?" a sardine man says with a smile.

Bleddyn shakes his head towards the vendor in a polite denial and waits for Selena to reply to him before he heads over to where the two Dugongs are throwing their contest, having taken it into his mind to attempt to try his hand at this particular game.

Selena sighs quietly and looks back at the crowds. "Well, I'm assumig there's some kind of swimming competition judging from... Well, that." She replies to the other wolf. "What else." The wolfess shakes her head politely as the sardine offers her fish. "I'll pass. Dio, Kaelli. Hello to you two as well. Wait. Dio, did you just say you wouldn't mind a swim? In water?"

Siyu shakes his head, "No no I'm going going to enjoy this, no nonot at all, good day to all of you, but I don't think this is for me

"Do I care?" Immedietly, Dio takes to raising his shirt over his head and dropping it to the floor in a crumpled heap, leaving nothing more than his dangling soul pendent upon his upper body. The lion rams his fists together and lets out a excited leonine roar to get himself pumped up! The spirit of a totally not old lion soars! "Let's do it, lad! What do I gotta do?

"Hunger is..ah..powerful motivator," the tigress commented, coughing softly in a weak attempt at concealing a laugh. A smile was directed towards Selena, however, and the feline offered a polite bow of greeting before straightening. "Hullo!" Looking between the aquatic competition field and the lion that had arrived just before her, Kaelli's featured shifted into a wry smile and she shook her head slightly at the over the display that was Dio.

Bleddyn is greeted by another one of the Dugongs, giving a smile and speech to him. "Well you might come this way, and you might be taxed beyond belief as you try out your aquatic prowess." They offer to take Bleddyn to the beach and meet the second dugong who is leading Dio, and give eachother smiles.
