        And we have finally arrived! Huzzah for tue next planned event, and the onward progression of the Current Clack therein! Let's get business out of the way first, shall we? 

        - If you are bringing along an NPC as your Plus One to the event, great! They can show up at any time, from being with you in the Coach House for a little pre-gaming before the party, to any point anong the way in. If nothing is noted, they will be waiting in the Tasting Room for you all. 

        - NPCs as Plus Ones [i]do[/i] break our rule about players not speaking for named NPCs. Please don't abuse this. If I think it's going a little too far off, I'll step in and course correct. When in doubt, send me a message and we will sort it out. No big deal. 

        - And again, if you wish for your character to opt out of the event, let me know and provide an alternate task for them to perform in the interim. They may skip out on this task, or consider it completed in one form or another, should minds change and they want to he there. Some call it "Splitting The Party," but I much prefer the more daunting, "Giving Possible Antagonists Opportunities." 

        ...not that you have anyone being antagonistic out there, lurking in the dark, right? Right? Nah, you'll be okay. You're on your vacation in wine country! 

        Speaking of opportunities, don't forget to attempt some social ones. We have a new face here as well as a couple old acquaintances, in addition to your Plus Ones. Have fun with it. Per usual, hit me up in our Discord for questions, die rolls, or rulings. Thanks!
