The scents of sweet meats being prepared and incense burnt in offering to the city gods and the little god of the Water Dance. The morning had held formal prayer services and blessings offered and received by each of the active team members. their fellows who were not part of the arena yet, came later, when the celebration started. The ground floor held the revel, a story teller took turns with a dancer and drummer, depending on the mood of the room. As the evening started, Carnelian Dreams offered a small show, flinging her fire from lamp to lamp in the lower floor, as a means of saying the party had just begun and thank you for attending. She retired to the second floor where she could watch over the festivities, where more that two dozen members of the gang, only six participating in the arena so far, but more training and learning. This was a social gathering of the lesser people, but as you rose to the second or even third floor, the assemblage also climbed the social strata. Second floor bore the actual water dancers when they weren't down with their fellows, it accepted moderate social climbers and a few awaiting entry to the third level which was only offered to Dragonblooded, true local aristocracy and by invitation from Carnelian.<br/><br/>Third floor held Silken Starfall the leader of the gang that Carnelian had hired and sponsored. The Dancers would be her team of water dancers, and the gangs members were her patrolling guard. Along with the the leader, Carnelian and Ryuko welcomed friends and prominent members of society.<br/><br/>On the second floor, Jubilant Hammer and the other lieutenants enjoyed themselves while they also kept the third floor stairs clear of interlopers. As the altitude increases, so does the expense. Cheaper wines at ground level, finer wine for the second floor and all members of the gang, and choice bottles on the third floor.
