So, will there be another Feast of the Exceptional Rose this year? ie, this week?
It should!
Echo Bazaar
We are glad to hear it, for the season of love approaches. Next week, we begin the Feast of the Exceptional Rose!

Given you posted on a Sunday, can you clarify which week you mean? The one we are in, or the one starting on the 19th?

Well, the Echo Bazaar account posted on the 10th of february and referred to “next week”, and st Valentine is on february the 14th, so I’d say from now on any moment is good.

thanks!
Whoops. Not being aware of this magnificent Feast, I seem to have gotten myself kicked out of the Court just before it starts. :sigh:
I thought the main Feast actions happened in Veilgarden and the Carnival. Are there some in the Court too?
There wasn’t anything in the Court last year, but who knows this year? Oh, don’t forget the Forgotton Quarter for romancing the Feast!
Oh yeah, I had forgotten that (haha)!
The wiki records some actions involving the Duchess’s party in the Shuttered Palace and the Court. Same actions in both areas as far as I can tell, so even those of us who offended the Empress should be able to attend.
Well, it’s “begun”, for a certain value of begun. On the upside, actions accesible anywhere.
These actions provide the following:
Making Waves hasn’t changed, because it’s higher than 19
Making Waves hasn’t changed, because it’s higher than 19
Making Waves hasn’t changed, because it’s higher than 19
Making Waves hasn’t changed, because it’s higher than 19
Making Waves hasn’t changed, because it’s higher than 19
Making Waves hasn’t changed, because it’s higher than 19
Making Waves hasn’t changed, because it’s higher than 19
etc.
“Making Waves” is the current name of Admired; normal storylets that normally increase Admired currently increase Making Waves (unlike the Feast storylets).
The Forgotten Quarter actions don’t appear to exist this year either.

…And I was already hoping of spamming forbidden love to raise my Connection: Tomb-Colonies for my precious Mysteries of the Elder Continent T.T
Where is the Mask of the Rose at the Bazaar? I can’t seem to find it.
Curiosities section!
A more hopeful storylet: Celebrate the Feast of the Exceptional Rose!/ ‘Do yer wanna see the real Exceptional Rose?’ seems to start a new storyline.

[color=#009900]Whitelaughter, please be courteous. Unpleasant tone aside, there’s no need to spam the forum with c/p text like this.[/color]
Well then, I’m pleased that I haven’t missed the Feast this year - Last year would have been my first Feast, but quite frankly I forgot all about it… (My IRL lack of Persuasive is showing, isn’t it?)

Goodness - having tried a selection of the storylets, I am now considerably more scandalous than when I began! grin
At least I have now seen the Exceptional Rose! A cute little storyline - for a given value of ‘cute’, I guess!
I have just managed to see the Rose as well! My, how absolutely entrancing.
I do wish I could have obtained a clipping… my St. John’s Lily might have appreciated the company.
Is there a trick in this? I raised my Looking for the Exceptional Rose quality through opportunity cards, and eventually reached 5 - “You have seen it. If it wasn’t a real miracle, it was a miracle of art.” But the card I used for that was a common one and the final text was the usual one. So, I saw it, but I really don’t know what I saw. Argl.
