Top Secret Dance Off

The dance secret is hard-wired in your brain and waiting for you to activate it.

I was super excited when I received my quest loot, and a letter from the Keepers themselves. It was magical. To my surprise, the loot wasn't either of the masks I had asked for, but the sister of the other - it was Too Dead the Phalarope. But I soon understood that the Keepers know more of the masks than we do, and the mask they sent was clearly linked to me.

I guess I had a bit too much time to think about the mask and the quest; today as I danced, I felt too many thoughts in my mind and too little dance energy in my body.

When you're a bit tired, small adversities may slow you down. I found out that it's quite difficult to tie a ribbon behind your head with cold fingers, and I wasted most of my song of choice while at it. Luckily, thanks to my indecisiveness, I had a back-up piece following right after, so I could roll with it.
Then my mp3 player and plugs kept dropping. *sigh*

This all made me feel like I didn't do very well on my quest, but as often happens, after watching the video on my computer with the music, there is a surprising amount of the dance secret flowing through.

Don't plan too much, because plans fail you. Instead, let the dance secret work you as much as you can.

The move unlocked is called the slow snow. I know what slow snow is. When I was reading the letter from the Keepers, I closed my eyes and could see slow snow. Perhaps this led me to premeditate the move a little too strongly, but the last time I do it on the LQ1 video, it has really gained it's form and works beautifully.

Oh, and the sword? Butterfly suggested a sword in the comments for my EQ1, and I just happen to have this one. It's from the days I was hunting a dragon in Sweden. Good times.

Excellent loot advice and I agree, you are the only person in the world who could have seen the slow snow and unlocked it. FIERO!

For the record

It appears as if this little, formerly-wonderful corner of the internet is a ghost town.For the record, though, I've been checking in several times a week for any signs of life, for that new adventure promised to start in 2012.Just wanted to leave a little mark, let anyone passing through know that someone out there still cares.See More

Oh. Hey! It's Bonus Round! Like so often, I set to do one thing and ended up doing something completely different. On location I changed my mind about dancing to Born Under Punches and went with Why Are We Sleeping instead. Gentlemen, I'm waiting…

"Funny you should mention that, we've had a big "cold" front moving through and it's exactly the reason I haven't done mine yet. "

"Hiya. Sorry I'm running late - the weather has kind of turned down (so no heat). That's a bad excuse though - should've been dancing while the weather was on. But I see you turning similar tricks! Race ya!"
