Apricity means “the warmth of the sun in winter" - brilliant sunshine that warms you despite being surrounded by ice and snow. Apricity isn’t only about the weather, however. It can define an unexpected change in attitude when your heart senses a feeling of hopefulness. Not entirely committed, but willing to accept that while all may not be well, there is wellness at this moment.

Orphic can have a mystic or oracular meaning, having an import that is not apparent to the senses or obvious to the intelligence.

As the month of Nightal draws to it's end,  the White Mask Theater ensures one of it's oldest traditions is kept alive
in the midst  of abyssal and  undead threats,  or,  perhaps, in spite of them.  Double doors were thrown wide in welcome
and did draw the inspired public to craft and create that which artistically depict apricity, thematically titled. Organizer
and  Hostess  for  the  evening's  Open Stage Show  was  the  dark  gossamer-clad  tiefling,  Oona  Siofra.

 

Several artful acts and some curious activity ensured the evening was etched into memory.

 

                                                     ♪  Anna dispensed a tale of a Neverwinter woman's journey to Waterdeep.
                                                     ♪  Alexander offered personalized memoriam of love found, love lost, and love enduring.
                                                     ♪  Maevyn recounted the tale two lovers and how they met, her parents.
                                                     ♪  Isang shared a sonnet titled: On This Bright Morning Of Fresh Fallen Snow.
                                                     ♪  Varon read a poem detailing an unfortunate encounter with a bird.
                                                     ♪  Natalie artfully opined on the intrinsic link between kindness and sorrow, and
                                                     ♪  Oona closed the show with a song that invoked a need to live in the moment.

By audience vote, the ranger Varon and his poem was awarded First Place
with a tie for second place between both Maevyn and Natalie, and Alexander following in third respectively.

Though the evening proved to be a grand success, it was not without it's own unusual turn of events. 

Where one  patron succumb to intoxication  and needed be  aided in their endeavors,  another under guise sought to claim
the spotlight, wigged and down-dressed, wherein thin-veiled prose gave way to preaching and threats at the Furies behest.
Swift  ejected,  the  audience were  treated  to  Alexander's  humor  thereafter and  merriment  resumed  all  too  quickly.
