Darkness under the Moon

Our event today was "Darkness under the Moon" and we went in the new designed "Realm of Shadow", a Skybox about the Sunshine Realm. You can read the report the plannings in this blogpost, there is a video to find too.

Read the story as prequel to this event ;).

Awaken in the Swamp

Something had happened. The last teleport hadn't worked, where had she landed here? She lay crouched like a baby on old stone slabs, it was dark and smelled damp and musty. She froze, trembled. She knew she couldn't stay here and slowly got up. Around her there were eerie noises to be heard. She was in the middle of a swamp. 

She looked around careful, the fog moved over the swamp, and from a distance she could see the bog lights. She knew that the witches of the swamp wanted to lure her deeper into the swamp. She knew the stories of young women disappearing into the bog and their bodies reappearing years later. The faces often disfigured by horror. 

She tried to breathe calmly, she felt the panic rise. Where was she, how had she got into this eerie world? She had chosen the address of the Sunshine Realm and was looking forward to a cosy evening with friends. What had happened to the Sunshine Realm? She was frightened, behind her wolves were howling. It didn't sound far away, her blood froze in her veins. She quickly got up and followed the path, listening to the sounds around her. An owl screamed beside the path, it sounded as if it was warning the moor of the invasion. She didn't belong here, but she didn't want to be here either. Again wolves howled, it sounded even closer than before, she had to hurry. She breathed a sigh of relief when she discovered the lights and a gate. The courtyard was paved, she wanted to escape quickly from the swamp and its creatures.

When she entered the courtyard, she heard bells, discovered the cemetery, and something seemed to be moving. Now she had escaped the swamp just to stand next to an old castle ruin, the cemetery. She saw the ravens circling above the cemetery, some had sat down beside the path and looked at her. Where did the bell ring from? Would she perhaps find help there? She discovered the ruins of an old church. It must have been an imposing building a long time ago, but the times were long gone. The roof had collapsed, the windows were without glass. Trees stood around the old walls, vine plants had grown tall on the old walls. But she could still see it as a church. Impossible that the bells were there, but she heard the ringing clearly. 

There were also lights, people seemed to be there. Carefully she crept to the ruin, looked into the interior and didn't believe her eyes. There danced witches and sorcerers, vampires and werewolves, the fairies moved gracefully. Where had she landed here? But the crowd exerted a magical attraction, they came closer and listened to the music. The atmosphere infected her, she had to dance, the music exerted a magical attraction. When she passed a mirror, she saw her dress. She was wrapped in a small and black leather dress, her cleavage wide open and her ass wasn't covered and exposes for views. Sie had worn black overknees boots and her hair was dyed black. She gave a surprised scream, couldn't believe her eyes.  

A warlock stood in front of her, laughed and reached out his hand. "Come we have brought you here to entertain the beings of the shadow world. You belong to us for this night, celebrate with us. Follow your instincts, you will dance naked. Early in the morning you will wake up, back in your world. But this night you belong to us, you will entertain our guests and bring them each pleasure they want. Today you are in the darkness, the blood moon has opened this world. But drink and eat nothing that the fairies will offer you". 

She followed the warlock as if hypnotized, dancing, her hips moving seductively to the sounds of the music.  

Whatever others thought, what stories went through their minds. SecondLife is an amazing world, build with dreams and fantasies, grounded at colored imaginations. We can escaping out the real world with borders and limitations and following this fantasies. We can write our own story. Today we had our first event in our "Realm of Shadow" and many of our friends and guests followed our invitation to the event of dark creatures. And it is really a successful new and dark world in the grid of SecondLife that can resurrect many fantasies and dreams. There were many costumes to see, most of them were our request to wear black clothes.  Just in time at 4pm DJ Valantine took over the music stream and entertained us wonderfully.

It quickly filled up, and in the end there were 40 guests. As usual we started a Contest with 1,000 L$. Thanks to a donation of our friends Travi and Skye we increased it to 1,200 L$.

And as the 6th page appeared in the contest we rounded it up again to 1,500 L$. So we thanked the guests who came in great numbers and in wonderful costumes. As usual we did this in split mode, so that at the end the Linden were split, there were 32 votes. 

Despite the newly built place, many costumes and people the Sim was stable, it was not too laggy, and also the voting worked without difficulties and interruptions. We were happy with the event, and hoping our guests enjoyed this evening like the Sunshine Girl. 

At this point I would like to thank the Sunshine Family again. And of course a special thanks to Bic, who was ready again at short notice to follow my brain twists and make banners for the Sim. So he once again helped to make the place unique. And everyone who knows me knows that I'm not planning, that I'm very spontaneous, but that I value the details.

Of course, there was also one of the famous after celebrations again. And again we took off most of our clothes and danced naked or at least topless. It was a very successful evening, so we left out any reason to celebrate. So DJ Valantine continued to play rock music for us.
