Fantasy Faire 2026: The Watch of Requiem

(click to enlarge)


STORYLINE: On the windswept hillside of the Fairelands, a lone crow hopped across the mossy ground, his talons clicking on paving stones. A cold breeze ruffled his feathers. Something about it felt wrong. Black Beak tilted his head, surveying the silent crypts and towering spires of Requiem. He had carried many souls gently to the next life. He knew the difference between a quiet passing and something darker. He cawed loudly in protest.

Dark clouds were gathering overhead.

He took flight, soaring through the flying buttresses, higher and higher he climbed. Caw. Caw. The Harpy King had felt it too. His enormous shape shadowed against the angry sky, white feathers gleaming in the last rays of the golden sunlight. With a thud, his sharp talons gripped the tallest spire, overlooking all the Fairelands. He raised his scythe. His screech ringing off every ancient stone below. The alarm was raised, the Unweaver was coming. 

Black Beak landed gently on the King's armored shoulder. Caw Caw. Together they watched as the Fairelands stirred and readied once more for the Battle of Life.


Welcome back to the biggest event in SecondLife, The Fantasy Faire! 

It's not to be missed! And all for a good cause, raising money for The American Cancer Society's Relay for Life. You can read more information about it here, look at the shopping guide, see the schedule of events, daily reports from the event, roleplays, jail and bails, live performances, Faire radio, tabletop games, LitFest, the interactive Hud based Quest game, and more:  FantasyFaireSL website.

This post was inspired by the gorgeous and gothic Requiem sim created by Fallen Gods with it's crow, the movie The Crow, and cool items for sell at the Faire.   ...From Air are the ornate Opium glasses, in silver or gold. They are mod, so you scale and adjust them for the perfect fit.   ...From Schelm are the Seiryu Earrings and matching Scythe. The Earring are unrigged for you adjust for a perfect fit. The scythe includes a hud with a 2 poses, and texture changes.   ...From Poet's Heart is the romantic Reina Crown. I used the fatpack version which includes many texture options.   ...The aura energy effect is Limb Swirls by Starlight Designs. Just add to your outfit, change the color options, and watch as magical energy animates around your avatar.   ... Black Beak is the American Crow by CKit Falconry. He is Animesh, and includes a hud for triggering animations, and poses. Plus you can name your crow too.   ...From past releases are items I have been itching to show, and finally got the chance.   ...Aii's Harpy collection is gorgeous, with fits for men and women. The body feathers, arm feathers and feet include a hud for changing textures, and to show and hide certain parts. Matching it is the body jewelry with the same options. And then add to that the Wings plus their jewelry. It's just so much fun, and stunning.   ...Adding elegance is the AURO Virtue material shine. I used it without the chainmail BOM layers, because I wanted it to be a lighter color. It worked great!   ...Adding motion is the Haruka hair for Argrace.
