about Dusklight Lounge.

Dusklight Lounge is an LGBTQ+ owned and operated café and tavern, located in the Aether data center on the Siren world. We are situated in the beautiful neighborhood of Shirogane, in Ward 24 Plot 8.Why are we called "Dusklight Lounge"? "Dusklight" is the perfect time to enjoy a hot cup of tea or a tankard of ale. It marks the end of a long day and the beginning of a restful night. The stark, contrasting colors unite under a single sky, seamlessly combining a spectrum of vivid hues. To us, this represents the unity and kinship we have amongst one another and within the LGBTQ+ community.☽ Our beautiful and serene café is upstairs, where you may enjoy freshly-baked pastries and delicious teas and coffee.☽ The tavern is downstairs, perfect for weary adventurers looking to wind down with a wide selection of alcoholic drinks and live entertainment.☽ We also offer fortune-telling services on a pay-what-you-can basis. Please ask Yuu Linh for more information.
