Time to put on your dancing shoes, don your fancy frocks, and shake that booty! The annual Masquerade Ball has opened its doors to the public once more, and you can party non-stop until 11:59 on March 31st! The Masquerade forum will be closing at this time, so keep that in mind when preparing any contests, meet-and-greets or general ball shenanigans.

Oh, and remember, it's a masked ball, and so it might be a little...unclear, who people really are.



Migrating Masks has a range of wonderfully fancy new masks for you to try your hand at restocking! Remember that you need to be wearing a mask to participate in the Masquerade Ball (that includes both dancing AND posting in the special forums!) The owner, Olivette, has told us she's going to be closing her shop at the end of Masquerade this year, so she can rest for a bit and possibly take a round the world dirigible vacation, so grab the new masks while you can!



Of course, with all of the dancing you'll be doing comes a whole lot of trinkets. And we have  just the things for you to spend them on: the Steamworks Menagerie has be stocked fit to bursting with some gorgeous new clothing designs and other fun trinkets. And word has it more is on its way, later on in the event!

If you were more interested in creating a steamworks pet than collecting more clothing items - we have good news for you. The steamworks key has been lowered in price from 5000 trinkets to 2500!



And we can't forget the Libertine Lounge - unless we've had a bit too much to drink, that is. Spend your Lounge Trinkets on a delightful selection of fingerfoods and cocktails, with some being made from the fruits of our fabulous Ikumoradeekanox tree - truly one of the great gifts of Ziara!
