Chinese Lunar Festival
"Long ago, a beautiful maiden named Chang'e kept an elixir for safekeeping that the gods had gifted to her husband, a famous hunter named Hou Yi. When the evil Peng Meng tried to steal it, Chang'e quickly drank the elixir to foil his plan, and suddenly became light as a feather, flying up into the sky and arriving on the moon. No matter what, she could not come back down to the ground. When Hou Yi returned home and found his elixir gone, he realized what had happened, and grieved that he had lost his wife. He asked his servants to put out tables in the garden with her favorite food and snacks on it that she might come back down from the heavens, and soon the rest of the village joined in sending prayers to the moon for her safety."
Your character has wandered into a gathering of people in an outdoor park celebrating the Chinese Lunar Festival, a celebration themed after reunion. Chat over mooncakes about those friends you've made over the years, who you wish you could see their faces again. Reminisce about adventures had while gazing up at fireworks bursting in the night sky. Light a lantern and send it up with your wishes for the safety of those who you can no longer see.
And perhaps, just perhaps, the day when you'll see them again might not be far.

Open to all, just feel free to chat and mingle! There's a special magical dust in the air that is compelling all your characters to share their pasts with others, and maybe even catch up with those they haven't spoken with recently. If you have a newer muse, have them share their canon past.
And if you want, bring up those old muses you've dropped in the past, to have them reunite with their long-lost friends just for tonight...
