Winterdark Ball Matchmaking and Escorts for Hire!

Have all your friends found partners for His Grace’s Masquerade Ball this year, leaving you to attend alone?

Do you fear your lack of escort will reflect poorly on your social status?

Afraid to ask someone you like to the Ball?

Do not despair! Kainen Wedding Planning is here to help! For this year’s Masquerade on the fourth of November, 1217, we will be providing a matchmaking service for any who wish to attend. Speak to any of our representatives at the upcoming Feast for a brief interview - we’ll be the beautiful women with purple hair! - and we will pair you with the perfect match!

Additionally, we will be holding an auction of potential dates in the near future! Funds raised here will be used for the betterment of Stonefall and its denizens. If you are interested in being auctioned off (you will receive a portion of the winning bid) please send a missive to Cyfihi and Leliana Kainen in Stonefall!

Leah: Find me when you do. I'm difficult to miss.

Veska: The starting bid will be determined on an individual basis; the process overall is similar to how the Guard does their bachelor auction. We have yet to determine if the auction will be in person or if it will be a silent auction taking place between Feasts, but we will choose whichever option we think will attract more people but give enough time to prepare for the Ball. The escort will be paid forty percent of the winning bid.

Leah,
Not everyone is graced with the Kainen family virtues that make us lovely and forward! Some don't have the time or patience! To others a date is not something they think about until last minute! That being said, I love when family visits! I hope to see you soon !

Hello Lovelies of Travance!

We are still taking those who are interested in being auctioned applications and we are still taking interviews! If you missed us at this past feast please feel free to send a raven to myself or my sister Cy in Stonefall! We would be glad to send you the questionnaire so you may fill it out in your down time! The sooner we know you would like to have help having a match made, the better we will know if we have a large enough pool of participants!

If you are interested in being auctioned, we would like to know your intended interest sooner or later!

Waiting with bated breath,

Kestrel,

Please keep an eye for a raven from myself. You'll know it's from me because...well you'll know.

To others;

Time is short! Please! At least let us know that you are possibly interested! If we do not have enough participants many will go dateless! What a shame that would be!

Veska,
Yes! I have you listed! Details will be provided soon!

Khala,
Matchmaking services would surely help you get a wonderful person to take to the ball!

Bluejay,
Perhaps you should work out your problems with your fiance? For now she will remain on the list of people for matchmaking services until she tells us otherwise. I hope you don't give her problems, that would be most...unfortunate.

Merikh,
Of course, we have a wedding planning business so this extension only makes sense! I will put your name into the list of people and should you be unable to attend you can just let us know.

Cara,
If it would make your load easier I would be glad to send you the interview through a missive for you to answer at your own time! I am in the middle of writing up copies of it for all applicants, though I am obviously open to questions before or even after you turn it in!

With Bated Breath for the Beautiful People of Travance,

Ravyn,
I have you down on my list of those to be auctioned off. Once we have the exact process down for how the auction will go all those who are also interested in auction will receive a missive!

That being said the questionnaire is only necessary for those who are entering matchmaking, I will send you a copy of the questionnaire so you may fill it out to be entered into matchmaking should the auction not prove fruitful.

You are all to be included in my next batch of copies as soon as my assistant is done writing them up!
To the rest of possible clientele: We will be cutting off our deadline for accepting matchmaking forms on the 15th of October. This will give my beautiful sister and myself enough time to make sure everyone gets matched up!

Dimetri,
You have been added to the list for auction.

To All:

The final day is upon us for applying for matchmaking! Remember that we will stop taking applications for matchmaking at the end of the 15 of October 1217 !! If you are interested in it please make sure you receive a copy of the questionnaire and send a raven to Stonefall with it completed! Those who are interested in being auctioned you will have a couple days leeway. The announcement for how that will be handled will be made in the next few days!

Of course you may Midori!
If there are any other late comers I have included a copy of the questions here.
