"Looking back at my posts from the past couple of Fantasy Faires, I note that I have explored the faire regions in rigorous, counterclockwise order. That’s a little bit too AR even for me. To change things up a little, and also to give me an opportunity to gather additional notes on the regions before I do detailed exploration, I’m going to follow the LitFest Tours order this year."

"A princess of the Deep and her deadly Kelpie steed awaits you in my first vlog from this year’s Fantasy Faire. The Kelpie is one of two fantastical new horses from Teegle for this Faire, the other being the far more benign-looking Hippocampus. They have been released as Teeglepets so far, but there will probably be avatar versions down the line as well. The black skin is by CORN who has released a really nice set of textures for the two mer-horses in their Fantasy Faire store. You will find the Teegle store on the Last Stop sim, one of the underwater sims for this year. The video below was filmed at Thunnus Bay, another of the underwater sims." Read more on the blog
