Eulalia could barely contain her excitement throughout her entire trip. Hua'mu was such a beautiful country to travel through; she couldn't pull her eyes off of the wonderfully crafted buildings as she went further into the city. She was probably going to be late to the party, with all the times she'd stopped to admire the scenery. With that thought crossing her mind, Eulalia finally forced herself to focus the rest of the way to the masquerade hall. She tightly gripped her small suitcase and continued on her way. She would be meeting so many people here, from so many other countries. She couldn't pass up the opportunity to show off some of her creations again! Eulalia still couldn't quite believe it. Her and her family had climbed their way up to their social status in their country, so to receive an invitation to such a noble gathering was truly an honor. The red-head tied her hair up with her own metallic hairpieces, resembling vines that kept her hair out of her face. She picked out her prettiest red dress, adorned with gold trim and a flowery design flowing through the gown. And of course, she [i]had[/i] to make her own mask for this party too! Eulalia went all out–crafting a light metal mask that just covered her eyes and her nose. Its color matched the gold of her dress, and included an intricate design of swirling vines to match her hair pieces. It even had carved flower petals sticking out from the tips of the mask. She hadn't been wearing it yet, so she could better take in her surroundings as she traveled, but now that she approached the front entrance, Eulalia slid the mask down over her face. After greeting the front guards, showing her invitation, and being welcomed into the foyer, Eulalia immediately began to scan her surroundings. There were definitely a lot of people here already. Nobody she recognized yet–but that was probably a good thing. New contacts to establish, and new friends to make! Just by looking at their attire, she could tell that this was a gathering of all the different nations. Eulalia couldn't help but feel slightly intimidated at this point now. She was confident when it came to sharing her work on business trips, but [i]this[/i] was no business trip. How should she even start to introduce herself and mingle with the other party-goers? [color=FF618C]"Maybe I should have taken some more lessons from mother before I came here..."[/color] she thought aloud to herself with a nervous smile. After all, her mother definitely had more people skills when it came to interactions such as this. Eulalia was always more focused on the physical part of her aspiring career... Shaking her head in an attempt to dismiss her nerves, Eulalia stepped further into the party, continuing to take in all of her surroundings: the beauty of the building's architecture, the lovely dressed guests, the fancy decorations hung around the room and along the tables. She stopped near a vacant table, setting her suitcase in one of the chairs before she turned to look over the party again, attempting to skim through the crowd to find a friendly face–although the masks made that a little more difficult. There was an internal debate in her head on whether she should just approach someone and introduce herself. But again... how? [/center]
