🔮🌅The Mirage🌅🔮

A look inside Axtapor & Mariel's Scrapbook that released with "As A Stranger Or A Friend?: The Swallow And The Drowned Sailor" last month! (I can't believe it's been that long already😱)
This set of pages contains lore on The Mirage, vessel of the infamous Captain Fay Anara, written from a speculative scholar's point of view. Many of the lore pages inside the scrapbook were designed to appear as if they'd been torn out of informational volumes by Axtapor throughout the events of AASOAF 2 and placed in his notebook for safekeeping. And yes, you read that right, the in-world story is that Axtapor's notebook has been repurposed as his and Mariel's scrapbook! The cover of it actually features the coat of arms of Clan Oxlo 👀

Access it here (my website link). Note, contains spoilers for AASOAF 2.

The Mirage, NV
The Mirage is a casino resort on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, United States. It is owned by Vici Properties and operated by Hard Rock International. The 65-acre property includes a 90,548 sq ft (8,412.2 m2) casino and 3,044 rooms.
Golden Nugget, Inc., led by developer Steve Wynn, purchased the future land of the Mirage in 1986. A hotel-casino, the Castaways, occupied a portion of the property and was demolished to make way for the Mirage. The resort opened on November 22, 1989, after two years of construction. It was the world's most expensive resort, completed at a cost of $630 million. It was also among the world's largest hotels. The Mirage was the first megaresort to open on the Las Vegas Strip, and its success prompted a building boom in the 1990s for other large resorts along the Strip.
The Mirage opened with several non-traditional attractions for a Las Vegas casino, including animal habitats for dolphins and tigers, and an indoor tropical forest display. Its primary attraction is an artificial volcano that erupts nightly, providing free entertainment in front of the resort. In 1990, the Mirage debuted a magic show by Siegfried & Roy, who performed there for nearly 14 years. The resort also hosted Cirque du Soleil's first Las Vegas show, Nouvelle Expérience, which opened in 1992. Cirque du Soleil would return to the property in 2006, with the debut of Love, a show featuring music by the Beatles.
Wynn departed the property in 2000, when his company was acquired by MGM Grand. Hard Rock International took over operations in December 2022, becoming the first tribal gaming operator on the Strip. The company intends to rebrand the resort as Hard Rock Las Vegas. The property will receive a complete renovation and expansion which will include a new guitar-shaped hotel tower, taking the place of the volcano attraction. The rebranding project is expected to begin in 2024, with completion within two years. MGM will license the "Mirage" name to Hard Rock until the project is complete.

Went to Vegas to see The Beatles LOVE show, it was far better than I expected. Too bad it ends soon as the Mirage was bought by Hard Rock and changes are coming beginning July 2024. This is a pic from the show as it was announced that still photography (no flash) was allowed but video was not. Taken with a Pixel 7 as I would never take my professional camera/equipment into a performance I was not specifically hired to photograph.
