Martineau Maritime Acquisitions & Shipping Concern Presents...
La Grande Soirée des Arts Architecturaux!





ENCHÈRE DE CHARITÉ ET SOIRÉE EXTRAORDINAIRE!




In celebration of the New Year, Martineau Maritime Acquisitions & Shipping Concern will be unveiling in the first public display of the Grand Foyer of our Corporate Offices newly opened in the Quarter Savant. All guests both of low and high birth are welcomed to attend in the spirit of our enlightened République's ideals of a grand display of art and refinement. Come within, find your ease to the sight of our majestic fountain and the sight of our beautiful cherry blossom trees and enjoy the sounds of relaxing music and refreshments. Entry will be 1,000 Dementlieuse Solars with discounts to the sum of 500 Dementlieuse Solars for those in active service with the Gendarmerie Nationale de La République de Dementlieu and La Jeune Compagnie. Dementlieuse Citizens residing within the Quartier Marchand and Quartier Ouvrier shall be permitted entry for FREE so long as they are able to attend in suitable formal attire.

An AUCTION shall be held during the soirée, of which 25% of the proceeds ALL Martineau Maritime Acquisitions & Shipping Concern internal stock shall be donated to worthy causes of the Arts, and 50% of all donated auction items shall be donated to the Arts, with the remaining proceeds being placed towards the RESTORATION of ESTELLIER which has been burned to ash and cinder by the perfidius Falkovnian invaders. Never again shall her walls be breached, and gates lowered by a Tyrant's hands again, and nevermore her Citizens suffer at the hands of the Zweïfalk!

As a matter of public trust and to ensure the funds are utilized with confidence of the donor, and to the best effect of the Dementlieuse Citizenry, none other than the City of Lights' own Maîtresse Francette Vaillant, Seigneuresse de Fincellis and Manager of La Troupe du Théatre de la Cathédrale will be acting as the co-trustee of ALL funds being donated to young students, children, and young adults seeking scholarships and tutelage into the Arts.

ITEMS OFFERED ON AUCTION SHALL BE OF THE LIKES OF A:

Platinum-gilded Adamantine Greatsword!
Armor of Faith!
Courtier's Orbii!
Pair of TWO Deep Shadow Strikes!
Cloak of Confidence!
Cape of the Mountebank!

AND MUCH, MUCH MORE!

THE BIDDING WILL BE RAPID.

THE PRICES WILL START LOW.

BRING YOUR COINPURSE.

COME PREPARED TO BID!




Those interesting in attending shall find the soirée hosted at the Corporate Offices of Martineau Maritime Acquisitions & Shipping Concern located within the Quartier Savant at Shop #3, across the street from the famous Emmanuelle's Tailoring!

Premises security will be controlled and performed by the brave souls of La Compagnie du Phénix, recognizable plainly in their wine-red dress uniforms of a Justaucorps cut.

Those interested in being admitted entry shall be dressed in their finest formal attire for an event to launch the Year 776 B.C. in a manner as auspicious as the collective ambition of our République's brightest minds.

I hope to see you there on the 8th of Janvier,

Alix Sinclair Martineau, Dame d'Estellier
Capitaine de La Compagnie du Phénix
Chief Executive Officer of Martineau Maritime Acquisitions & Shipping Concern








All bids shall be opened at a starting bid ranging between one and one-hundred Dementlieuse Solars, regardless of item with no reserves. Bidding shall transpire at a rapid and vigorous pace, to be lead by the auctioneer (Dame d'Estellier) during the evening's entertainment's intermission. Those bidding must either have their funds stored within the City of Port-á-Lucine or carried upon their person. Tickets will be issued at the entrance of the event with lines forming along the sidewalk of the Quarter Savant prior to the event before admission. Admission will cost a sum of 1,000 Dementlieuse Solars per individual, with military discounts for attendants serving active military service with either La Jeune Compagnie or the Gendarmerie Nationale de La République de Dementlieu amounting to 500 Dementlieuse Solars per head. Entrance without receiving a ticket with your name written at the foot by the door attendant will be considered trespassing and result in the immediate removal of the premises by security staff. Citizens of the Quartiers Ouvrier and Marchand will be permitted to enter for free, granted they attend in formal attire and provide some measure of identification at the entrance. Those falsely impersonating Dementlieuse Citizens will be reported to the Gendarmerie Nationale de Dementlieu and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. All bids and transactions must be paid in full during the same night of purchase. Those making false bids and unable to pay for their goods will be blacklisted from future Martineau Maritime Acquisitions & Shipping Concern events.
