Hello, Hello! May I ask what is Moonlit Orchid Day? Is it QiXi? How is it related to orchids?
Hello, hello nonnie!
Moonlit Orchid Day is a festival celebrated in Linkon City that's equivalent to Qixi Festival IRL! This year Qixi Festival falls on August 10th, so if you're on NA like I am we wont be seeing the prompts for it in game until Saturday.
The devs probably named the holiday differently in game to fit the story line better and also to avoid any discourse within the LADS community. They did something similar back in February for Valentine's Day where they called it Azure’s Echo Day.
Happy Qixi to love of my life Yizhan.. Hope today, tomorrow and everyday your life is filled with lots of love.. Forever together and always be happy.. Love you both so much 💚❤.
Wedding papercraft commission! The wedding took place last year on the Qixi festival, which celebrates the romantic legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and so the client asked me to incorporate imagery from the legend into the piece! Hence the magpie bridge and the star chart background.
The client also handmade that gorgeous wedding outfit, and sent me some samples of the fabric and beads used in it, asking if I could incorporate those somewhere as well. Such a cool idea! I’m a lot more familiar with paper than with fabric, but I ended up using the tulle on the underside of the skirt and the beads along the sides of the background. I think the overall effect is really neat.
Dear Deepspace Hunter,
Beneath the clear, expansive sky,
He waits, as stars gleam high.
An orchid's touch, a heartfelt token,
Crafted sweets, with words unspoken.
May all your dreams find their place,
where love and wishes interlace.
Through the years and every day,
May true affections guide their way.
