Teaser: The Main Event's Tomorrow—Let's Prep What We Can Today

“Hmm, if we're handing out welcome drinks like you said, we'll need ‍‍‌‌⁠​​⁠‌​​‍​​‍​‌​⁠‍‌‍⁠⁠‌⁠‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍⁠​‌​‌​‌‍‌‌‌⁠‍​​‌‍⁠‌‌⁠⁠a temporary stall in the spawn area. About 50 people, right?”

“Yeah…? Adding the award winners and the Padak crew, it should come out to around that. Though some might skip out. Still, better prep extra. Granite Fist's drinks? They'll want 100% refills.”

“Ahem… well, if that's the case.”

Granite Fist here seemed weak to subtle praise.

I mean, who wouldn't like people loving what you made…?

I circled the park one more time, double-checking tomorrow's plans.

First thing in the morning, my event teaser post would drop.

No entertainment in the Shelter, so even a same-day reveal would spread like wildfire.

'Then roll out the events in sequence.'

Salt supply, contest awards, park info reveal and preview stream, and finally the Orchard.

“Guess it's about time for me to head out. See you tomorrow.”

“Got it.”

Back in my room, I flopped onto the bed and messaged StickyThingLover.

Faces? In a huge event, who cares about that.

Recognized even masked. Guess she's kinda famous…

'Figured she's highborn or something…'

Tch… nothing for it. I'll hook her up later.

Stream looks good too…

Volunteer?

If StickyThingLover vouches, he's solid.

Tentacle obsession and weird speech aside, top talent.

“Next up… salt sales.”

Okay… check.

Last one…

……

And so the day flew by.

Evening came quick…

“…Elise really isn't coming, huh.”

Makes sense… putting myself in her shoes…

My bad, plain and simple.

Didn't expect that motorcycle mess.

Her magic class might never reopen.

Still, stay strong, Elise.

Time heals all…

Lost in endless thoughts, the day turned.

Next day

“Sold out?”

No way.
