Twisted Beyond The Veil

 Hiya everyone! Tonight we are heading back Beyond The Veil with the Twisted Fall 2021 Hunt. It is a special event that takes place twice a year (March and September) where we search for devilishly tricky hidden cubes which for this round are Dusk colored. That is a smoky purple shade that you will see plenty of along the hunt path, perhaps a bit too much ;) Please be sure to read over their website if this is your first time taking part, so you know what to expect. Generally it is very tricky, no hints are provided on the website (but can be requested in the chat for their group) and there can be up to 13 visible decoys at each store in addition to the actual prize-containing cube. There are easels at many stores that will give you a notecard upon clicking with information like side hunts, special sales, and in a few cases a hint. I am also a fan of teamwork if you have a friend who might be interested too, and with lots of male and female prizes plus unisex ones it can appeal to a wide audience.


My first look of the evening is the Cailleach, Guardian of the Veil outfit from Steel & Ink. The top and skirt each come in a fitmesh M size for classic avatars along with sizing for Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, Tonic Fine, and Voluptuous mesh bodies. The matching wedge heeled boots have an unrigged version you can adjust, plus sizes for Belleza, Maitreya, Legacy, Ocacin, Slink, Tonic, and Voluptuous mesh feet. They all have bright aqua lace to contrast the dusky purple color wonderfully. 


Next I changed into the lovely MLCC Beyond The Veil Dusk Womens Outfit from Moonlitecat Creations. There is a men's prize in a different cube, so be sure to continue to look around when you've found one :) This treat includes the diaphanous top and skirt in plenty of sizes: 5 standard and 5 fitmesh for classic avatars, as well as eBody, Freya, Isis, Venus, Maitreya, Ocacin, Hourglass, Physique, TMP, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh body sizes. I love the handkerchief hemline, and the way the fabric is sheer in just the right places.


Better than Naked has two prizes waiting for us too, so I am pleased to share their [BtN] THF21 (f) ladies' prize. The long sleeved top and full length skirt are each provided in sizes for Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, Physique, Tonic Curvy, and Tonic Fine mesh bodies, as well as a fitmesh M for classic avatars. The texture is animated and positively mesmerizing! I could have stared at it for ages, enjoying the way the smoke pattern drifts from left to right on one piece and right to left on the other. The swirling sensation is very clever, and I do get a kick out of animated textures.


There are two prizes to locate at Mara's Meshy Stuff, a new-to-me store with a really fun name! These gifts are both for the ladies, and are the Friday the 13th Bunneh top and the Red webbed skirt seen here. Each come in Freya, Isis, Hourglass, Legacy, and Maitreya mesh body sizes, and they can be worn together or you can pair them with anything else in your inventory that you choose. The intense little bunny made me chuckle, and the webs of the skirt are just as Halloween themed but neither are really limited to that season. 


My final look this evening is the head-turning Ethereal Harness Dress prize from [Ari-Pari]. It has the twisted cubes' texture on the bodice and ruched layers on the skirt, with a flattering built in harness. The dress comes in Freya, Isis, Venus, Legacy, Maitreya, Hourglass, and Physique mesh body sizing, with a terrific HUD that offers 10 colors for the dress, 4 for the harness, and the ability to hide or show the harness entirely. This way you can decide if you want the delicate harness straps to hug your curves, or the spaghetti strap dress itself since it is formfitting too. I always appreciate HUDs for versatility, and this one is especially loaded with options.

It has been a pretty good weekend here, all things considered. The housemate's guest will be leaving in the morning, and they were not too obnoxious so I was relieved. The weather Saturday was beautiful for my visit to the farmers market, and I saw someone who used to sell there but had to move back to his home country to take care of a family member. He was up visiting and stopped by to see another vendor, and I was lucky to be there at just the right time. I hope you all enjoyed your weekend too, many magical magpie hugs to everyone!!
