Who's that little darling up front? We've sure never seen her, but one thing is for sure, we want to see more! Problem is, if you tried, you probably wouldn't notice. Yes, that's right. You wouldn't notice until you blinked that cute as she is, the teddy-bear bearer herself would seem to be able to simply disappear, or perhaps walk through walls, even! Trust me, we were just as surprised to see the ghostly face show up in the Kamera. Certainly doesn't seem like they are at all upset to be part of the photo either, bless them (Or don't, that might be bad for them)!
Who is this ghostly Antean tailing the party? Are they haunted? What the heck did those Bannermanes get up to to incur such a haunting, and above all… Why is she working service at the party? Certainly the first time something incorporeal has ever attended, and even stranger, seems to be one of the only employee spotted without a covering over their face or head! "Maybe it's time to consult the crystals themselves, but heh… only the best of the best of us have those,aye?" says a rather well-dressed anonymous inside source. "Only ones I know that have 'em are the Calligraphers themselves, inn-aye? Keep those kinds of things on lock."
At the very least, this would almost certainly imply they are simply not with the Service Workers protest, but what could have brought in these new, nearly-invisible helpers? Clearly our diamond has something in store for us this ball, and the more we see, the more and more questions continue to come forward!

Electra Avoiding the Kamera!
Alright all you out there, this is getting uncanny. Time after time, we've seen her in the background. Always a subnote in the grander pictures that our lovely Kammy has an incredible eye for, she constantly seems either surprised, or hiding from everything we do. Now, clearly, she's been travelling with them and apparently paid a crucial part in the Wati rescue effort. There's something special about this kirin, and the more and more she shows up in our photos, the more and more questions we reach out and ask. The odd thing is, though, that none of these questions ever yield results. Any leads we have down to before the events at Wati only lend to one conclusion, no one knows where she is from, or really who this Kirin is!
Now some of our readers might ask if this is… a bit intrusive on her privacy, and to that we say… Its what we do! We do it for you, Kalidai. No one should be saved from the spotlight at such a key event of our city's traditions, and the lack of background on this individual has a lot of us wondering how much a Scaletip influence is going to be present in what she has to present to us on the runway come tomorrow.

Saint Tangent's Doodles
What's that in the back there? A saint herself doodling on a napkin? Well dames and fellas, you've heard of The Author in toast, now get ready for art straight from the mind of one of the Sun King's more prolific icons of this day and age. Some say so prolific, in fact, that you feel blessed by simply being around her. I… can't say I know exactly what that feels like, but several of our news-ponies have confirmed such a feeling, so who am I to question the divine?
Local bards are clamoring to see what she has to draw though, that's for certain. Many ponies are curious if any of her more… known pieces are going to show up in this year's auctions, especially now that they have been made public! One thing is for certain, anyone betting against anything A Pimp Named Buckback wants better have some deep pockets… If you know, you know, folks, I say it time and time again. If — You — Know — You — Know!

Upfront Personality
Disorganized, pushy, overly cautious… These are words you wouldn't expect to be associated with a group presenting themselves at the Krystal Ball of all places, but it would seem all too common amongst them. But I do know all you readers may not be aware of who all these individuals are, and trust me, at first neither did we. Heck, it wasn't even until this first day that we'd even noticed some of these creatures following the Wati headliners, but fear not, Kammy's got you kovered as always. I've kept my eyes and ears out, gathering names and stories (and nearly getting roasted myself) from all of them so I can truly get to you, the readers, the inside scoop on this gang of unlikely adventurers. Who are they? Are they dangerous? Why are they travelling with the group? Turn the page to find out the Good, the Bad, and the Unsightly!
