+ | ===Arrival and Descent=== | ||
+ | |||
+ | The guests arrive, mill and chat in the foyer of the space. On a low table there is a glass bowl of water scented with mixed herbs and flowers for people to wash their hands.

On the presentation table, still covered in notes and instructions the dessert spread is spiced with sound emanating from the table and around the room. [[Sweet Emergence|Read more...]] | ||
