Current Break-it-down*
On a floating island set with decorative cherry trees:
Anriki is playing Go against Lyra, although they're taking a pastry break with Caelund and Rasanam.
Lady Nia** is nearby, procuring tea and beverages for those involved in playing Go.
Several games of Shogi (Japanese Chess) are ongoing in the area, most notably, Fjolnir (Rasanam's raven familiar) is playing against Celeste, and Odin and Harrune just
started their second game.
At the far side of the island are a number of games of Mahjong; the notable player here is Kim Su-Jin**. Although, I suspect Ossian will be joining them unless he's intercepted as he arrives.
On a floating island set with vines and a stone-henge like arrangement of runed monoliths:
Cassandra's riddle contest is starting. To be honest, I don't have a lot of good riddles, so... It's more background stuff and tests of psyche. There are a few orcs and people from other courts with invites, although one goblin did get kicked out for having an inappropriate riddle***.
At Rasanam's maze:
Victor Magesoul is double-checking and maintaining the enchantments; Anniah, Chance & Risk (and a number of other un-named NPCs) are exploring the interior. (Someone, somewhere, is making a joke about Risk being a rat in a maze.) Most of them could meet someone here or head elsewhere. (there's a lot of NPCs around, like Kizak.)
On the ground level of the gardens:
Lady Ninear & company are now playing parcheesi with Rogbar, Jiga and Asai.
Location varies:
Rolaldael is managing security, and could easily turn up (or be approached) in any location.
Krajk is '
out of phase' with the party. (Arcane?) Also, Darnell is there.
Not Present:
Ch'talo is engaging in a battle for acceptance at Rebma by fishing. Yay.
Quin has, apparently, better things to do.
Cameron is moving IRL and really needs to show up soon to advance plot.
New Arrivals:
Ossian is heading to majong.
Oberon is somewhere... This isn't his kind of party, but he's doing a token showing.
Aibne and Spellbinder are
by the music.
Morgana has made her way to the majong tables.
Dworkin is... somewhere. I can't imagine him playing games though, so your guess is as good as mine.

*:
Und get funky!
**: Lady Nia and Kim Su-Jin have this angry static between them, even though they're nowhere near each other.
***: "Do you have a little goblin in you?"****
****: Don't ask.
