The sounds of crackling fire jolt you awake. Embers fly around the campfires that surround you and your fellow tributes. The courtyard has once again changed overnight, morphing into a thick woodland. A dark, but tranquil forest. And though the night's cold breath bites your skin, the warmth from the fire balances it out. You're dressed in your best. Allies and partners dance together, talking amongst themselves. Others sit in the corner, or at the buffet table, the arena weighing heavy on their minds. Peacekeepers are stationed on the outskirts of the forest, their watchful eye observing the party-goers carefully. Sparks fly everywhere, illuminating the dark night with a warm glow. Some plants glow too, obviously altered by the Capitol's team of botanists and chemists. You return your gaze to a small clearing surrounded by blooming flowers. Tributes dance in the circle, the sound from the hidden speakers booming in your ears. Make the most of your time tonight- because it may be the last party you ever attend. May the odds ever be in your favor. The Tribute Dance officially ends on Friday, 8/4, but if you wish to roleplay past that in order to finish your chains, you may! This is not a graded event- simply a roleplay opportunity to become closer to allies/love interests.
