Waiting for the Mists to Part: Getting Ready for Fantasy Faire 2026
There’s a very specific kind of impatience that sets in right around now. The kind where I keep checking the calendar (yes, it’s really opening on Thursday, April 23), peek at teasers, and start mentally planning outfits you absolutely don’t need but will 100% end up buying anyway.

Fantasy Faire 2021 – Featherfall
Did you know one of my hobbies and passions in real life is: knitting (and crochet) ? You did not? Well, now you know! After a day of working and before I log into Second Life I find it super relaxing to do something that does not involve a keyboard and a monitor. So I…

The Fantasy Faire end-party that did not happen
The end-party of the Fantasy Faire, a gathering of all Fairefolk and party-peeps from allover the grid, did not happen this year. It was not held on The Rose – which finally came to bloom and was filled with roses – and certainly not in the pool. Some 78+ or more people did not dance…
