The fading sunlight of dusk shows a festive scene in the farmland around the big old barn. Tables laden with good food from the recent harvest and little tents with trinkets or games dot the open field with the heavily decorated barn as a center piece. Beings of all shapes and sizes roam around, talking and laughing and a small band of talented farmers are playing a popular folk song on a little crate and barrel stage. It looks like this is shaping up to be a great party! The decorations on the barn-turned-fright house aren't half bad either! It almost radiates a malevolent aura, though that is easily dispersed by the celebrating farmers all around.

"Oh, is this the place I heard about?" Cassidy asks no one in particular, ears perking as she makes her way towards the little festive location. "I heard some talk about a farm that had been done up rather nicely outside of the city. I see the rumours were true! It's a pretty place."

Bazalt pads along rubbing the back of his head. "Well this is an... interesting experience.." he nods, mumbling to himself. The wolf for once was dressed in one of his not-so adventuring outfits. He looks around, eyeing everything closely as he walks, Clearly still unsure about the occasion. "am I overdressed for once?"

A twin-tailed fishing cat of white fur makes her way through the farm to the party. Her tailtips glow softly in the evening dim, and she bounces a bit on her feet, looking around for the food. She's fresh off the boat, returning home after studying in Cliffside, and she's curious what's changed in her absence. Granted, she didn't have anyone she knew too well before she left, so she thinks she'd be better off trying to learn about what's new at the party.

"It is," Natska replies cheerfully. She follows along at Cass' side, grinning and eyeing the festive area. "Very nice."

Selena makes her way through the crowd quietly, looking around the area's rather elaborate setup if only for the sake of perusal rather than an intent to engage in the festivities. When she inevitably notices some familiar faces in the crowd, she waves and makes her way over to the feline and fennec pair. "Good evening, Cassidy, Natska. I haven't seen either of you for how long now?" She sighs quietly. "I've been far too busy. Good to get out and about again."

"Welcome!" shouts a burly hedgehog, climbing up onto the stage as the little band finishes up a number, "Welcome everyone to our little festival! Now, I know that Halloween is still a couple days off, but it's right good of y'all to start the party early! Eat! Drink! And don't forget to drop a few scepters in yer neighbors hats for some of the fine food and crafts they've brought to sell! And don't nobody go home without takin' a walk through our fine scare-house! Happy Halloween!"

That manages to illicit a friendly cheer from the crowd as everyone gets back to their business and the band starts to play again. The whole scene is quite picturesque, especially as lamps are lit in the dying light.

Bazalt Blinks and idly waves to Cass and Natska as he walks, wasnt the first time he'd seen the pair but he'd not really properly spoken to them? maybe now was the time? The shadow wolf sighs and Shakes abit-Clearly Nervous around the crowd of all the beings gathered.

Cassidy nods at Selena, offering a smile. "It's been a while, yes! Glad that you're doing well! I hope that the work that's been keeping you busy hasn't been too stressful or anything," she says, folding her hands behind her back. "I certainly didn't expect to see you out here, but I am glad that I did!"

Maya pauses, not quite interested in the scare house, though curious about the other Beings there. She watches for a while, looking around for potential military types. That might be an easier way for her to find people to talk to.

"Ah. I thought the date was a little off." Selena comments offhandedly as the hedgehog announces that the festival had indeed started a bit earlier than usual. The canine reciprocates Cassidy's smile - albeit a little briefly - before nodding. "Thankfully it's not stressful. Just quite busy as of late. It's interesting, and a reasonably good distraction from some other recent events," She explains, waving a hand slightly "Which now is neither the time not place to go into. What about yourselves? I recall Angus was quite busy when we last spoke; are things around house Solacious still in full swing, or have you kept your heads out of that?"

Natska slips an arm through Cassidy's and gives Selena a bright smile. "It really has been too long! It is good to see you. I hope your studies have gone well." She smiles at the other people near by, the feline in obviously high spirits, then she gives Cass a nudge. "Shall we check out the haunted barn? And yes, things are still pretty busy, but we make time for ourselves. I haven't had a chance to chat with many of the house members in ages though."

Bazalt Frowns slightly as he goes unnoticed-as always, probally his fur. The wolf shrugs and lets out a large sigh as he looks at the 'scare house' "hrrm suppose I could see?" he shrugs and lets out another sigh as he debates waht to do next.

Cassidy waves towards Maya, tail flicking idly as she listens to Selena, nodding. "That's fair! I won't pry, then. And I dunno, things around the Solacious house have seemed pretty quiet to me. There hasn't been a lot going on in the family at large." She gives Natska's arm a squeeze and looks towards the barn. "Sure! Let's check it out!"

Friends and neighbors call to each other and there is laughing and a few couples have even started to dance in the little patch of ground before the stage. The stalls selling food and drink grow a bit more vociferous after the commendation from the hedgehog spokesman and trinkets and handmade items of all descriptions are available among stalls advertising games of skill and chance. Amidst all this, the Scare-House has started its first tours of the night and excited shrieks and calls come from the old barn.

Maya blinks as the fennec waves to her. She starts to head over, stopping by a stall to pick up a tart. She smiles a bit. "I'll admit, I've been gone a while, but, I don't know anyone here." Continuing to address the Fennec. "So, excuse me for introducing myself without prior overtures. I'm Maya. Still haven't found anything that fits for a title or epithet. Granted, those are usually given or earned."

Selena nods back to Natska and Cassidy, looking back to the pair as they gesture towards the barn. "There's always something going on with noble houses. It might've been quiet as of late, but that's made some proceedings related to the craige even harder to put through court."

Maya is greeted with a nod as she introduces herself to the fennec, an acknowledgement. "An introduction doesn't have to be a life story. Regardless," Selena greets, offering a hand. "My name is Selena, it's good to meet you."
