Majilis Al Jinn |
The Palace over the Ocean |
It is no secret that I am working on a computer that is most likely run by tiny hamsters who, by now, have long beards and are carrying canes. But for this location, I bumped up the graphics as high as they can go for me, which isn't very high, and set out to capture the stunning atmosphere. Do yourself a favor and keep on the local windlight settings as they are custom built for the sim, which means that is the best way to see what Calein Flux had in mind. When you land, make sure to touch the large ad sign for the sim and take the notecard. It has the story and original intent of the designer along with an update from May of this year, which made me very happy. You often see posts about sims people miss, or about beloved sims closing, and to read the story and realize Majilis Al Jinn has been running for four years made me giddy, because if you couldn't tell, I will be spending quite a bit of time there in the future, something about it just soothed my soul.
I swear I could smell Frankincense and melted candles in the air as I wandered along the meandering paths with one destination in mind. I had to see inside the palace that had me thinking of lamps, Princes, wishes and, of course, the Jinn who I knew were watching me as I tiptoed through their garden. Around a corner I turned and the narrow pathway opened into a grand walkway all leading to the steps of the treasure I had been hoping to find.
Do you dare to open the doors and venture inside? |
I have to admit I ran up those stairs because after all the time I had spent winding my way there I just could not wait to see what was inside! By this point, the hamsters were starting to huff and puff and I was lagging a bit but I HAD to go explore! As I walked through the doors I was blown away by the detailing in the design and the exquisitely luxurious textures that covered everything in sight. I got one final picture before the computer decided to freeze and I guess you could call it a teaser since I can only describe to you the decadent bathing room, gorgeously appointed bedroom and grand throne room but in all reality, my words could never be enough to give you a clear picture of the riches found in the palace at Majilis Al Jinn. Once you gain entry, make sure to take the winding staircase to the top to take in the entire vista, it is well worth the little climb.
The entryway of the Palace |
Not wanting my adventure to be over, I restarted Second Life, of course, and prayed I could load on the same settings at least long enough to take a little more time to peek around the corners and maybe under the water. As I loaded, there she was..... the Guardian of the Sands of Time. I knew I had heard faint whispers on the wind inside the palace and I hoped I had not disturbed the Jinn who had still not shown themselves to me. But her presence before me let me know I had more than disturbed them, I had angered the Guardian with my peek inside their hidden places. When faced with a power such as that, you really have two choices to make, stay and die or RUN! Unless of course, you happen to be me, you snap a photo first, then RUN!
The Guardian of the Sands of Time in Tiffany Designs @ Sneak Peek |
I hope you all enjoyed my little tale inspired by this amazing gown from Tiffany Designs and the majestic Majilis Al Jinn as much as I was delighted in writing it for you all. Sneak Peek opened its doors yesterday so make sure to head on by the new location and pick up your goodie bags the designers have put together for this round. The "Angola" dress is available in several different colors so I am sure you will find your fave amongst them. By the way, I didn't do any enhancing to my shape, that corseted, cinched waist and large hips with round bum look is courtesy of the dress and I must say I approve! After all, shouldn't a Goddess LOOK like one?!
