Quest
Write a two paragraph [5-7 sentances] post about the scene and day your child arrives at it's chosen city. Try to use all five of the senses. Remember, you can't RP an infant aside from the occasional baby sound and looking around. This is not intended to be an RP post- tell us what kind of atmosphere greets your baby when he/she arrives.

It was really...a perfectly ordinary day. The sun was calm and warm over the Mage-City, bustling activity encouraged by the occasional burst of fireworks from the training areas and some overzealous student. The sound of voices was strong, a babbling murmur that overcame any silence and sent shivers along one's nerves like lightning. This was a place full of energy and cheer, with business being proclaimed from every corner. Children played in the streets, watched by their chatting mothers, and cheerfully darted out of the way as one passed.
Still, there was something expectant in the air. A hum of anticipation, a tension that had everyone looking over their shoulders at the clock, regardless of if they had any appointments. For the most part, people ignored it; some few got frustrated and FOUND something to do with their time. Others murmured about it in low, eager voices- conspiracy theorists. They would be more than pleased if soemthing happened.
It was as if the world were holding it's breath.
And it was a perfectly ordinary day.
