Who: Open to everyone
What: #TeamTranquillity are in it to win it. Deciding to work together, the gang has taken over the library and converted it into a space for weary residents of Hadriel to catch their breath and just take it easy amid the intensifying competition in the city to invoke one emotion or another.
Where: The Library
When: March 15th to March 21st, duration of the event.
Warnings: Will Update if necessary!

[Hadriel's library has unfortunately seen little use; the books are either unreadable or cover material so random that only Hope someone who completely did not understand the concept of fun would have picked those books. Little wonder it's hardly frequented by Hadriel's residents.

But it's still a library: meaning, it's got plenty of space, and plenty of peace and quiet.

So with all the chaos erupting over the city? It could make the perfect sanctuary, a place to take a breather from the emotion wars. A place where a person could unwind over a cup of coffee, tea or hot chocolate, knit a sweater in peace, or even plunge themselves into pillow/blanket fort and just take a nap. A place to relax.

A place for Tranquillity.

Which is why Team Tranquillity has taken over the library and converted it into a mini R&R. Tables and chairs have been pushed to the side to allow for floor space, and comfortable chairs, sofas and even beanie bags, all in softer pastel colours, dot the empty space. A couple of tables and chairs have been left as well, so that those in need of them can use them as they'd like. And of course, the giant pillow fort bundled in one corner for people to unceremoniously throw themselves into.

The members of Team Tranquillity are all around to ensure that your time in the Tranquillity Space is as relaxing as can be. Some members are even offering services, ranging from massages to meditation, gentle exercises to a steaming hot cup of joe. Knitting classes, advice on handling emotional stress when under torture and trauma, and even some fortune-telling for light laughs.

And it's perfectly alright to drag a beanie bag to your own personal corner and just crash there for the day. No judgement from Team Tranquillity.

A message is sent out via the network to inform Hadriel's citizens of the new place in town to get away from it all. Drop by whenever, do what you need to relax and recharge. It's a stressful world out there, and sometimes we all need to take some time to chill out, right?

Welcome, to the Tranquillity Space.

[Maketh starts at the touch but doesn't jerk away. She meets Anne's eyes curiously. Nothing Anne does is expected. A politician would have struck at the wound her honest revealed, taken advantage. An officer would have gone in for something far more lasting. A knife to her throat, an underhand word to ruin her standing. By right, a queen should have struck her dead for revealing such a weakness. Once a traitor, always a traitor.

And yet, Anne takes her hand. There's--sadness in her face.

Maketh blinks.]


It was expected. Your officers do not--?

For a mistake or failure? No, I would never stand for such a thing.

[Even Louis was more just than that, even if his temper got the better of him sometimes. Anne would never punish someone in such a harsh manner.]

The only time execution could be an option was for treason against the crown or against the country. But even then, mercy is always the better option when it's possible. There is already so much death and suffering in the world.

[She knew she had done the right thing in asking Louis to spare his mother's life, she knew her husband would have never have forgiven himself.]

Oh.

[Maketh isn't sure what to make of that.]

That--seems strange to me.

Soldiers shouldn't be punished in such a cruel way. How could your Emperor expect his army to be loyal in such a situation?

[How strange. How very strange.]

It's better than having no army at all.

[Maketh gives her a sad smile.]

I suppose we simply--accepted it.

Well, I hope that is not the case here.

[Anne returned the smile warmly.]

You shouldn't have to live in fear.

It would be a good world, if that were true.

[She looks a bit wistful.]

Regardless. Hadriel is--what it is. For good and ill.
