And I will be there telling a story too.Alongside friends and family, I run The Approving Seal, a café and charity named after my wonderful pet seal, Enkrisi.

Expect bold and comforting flavours from both Werlyt and Corvos; we will be sure to excite your tastebuds.What to find at our stall:- Homemade dishes blending Werlytian and Corvosi cuisine

The Approving Seal is the name of our cafe.
It is in the picturesque town of Terncliff and not far from the sea.
It is a cosy spot where anybody is welcome.
Profits go towards the Approving Seal charity, but we offer a variety of Werlyt (by our interpretation) and Thavnairan dishes and a friendly and warm atmosphere.

Our lounge is an open space for people to perform and a comfortable social environment and a space for orphans to play and hang out too.
People from the cafe are welcome to bring their food and drinks up here.
Although OOCly it is in the basement, but ICly treat it as an upstairs (else some of the design would not make sense)

The Approving Seal is funded ICly as a charity and orphanage.
Our charity focuses on:
Helping orphans of the Garlean occupation and war
Aiding defectors & refugees to help them find new lives
Offering support to those affected by war
Contributing to the rebuilding of Werlyt & facilitating a positive relationship with Garlean survivors
Rescuing refugees & orphans
Aiding justice for those affected by the Garlean occupation and war.

A cozy café, lounge, and charity nestled in Terncliff, The Approving Seal is a partner venue to Wayfarers' Ger. Run by the same hosts, and there's an IC connection between the two.
Our Story: Once the beloved home of the Onasis family, it passed to Kaethe, their last surviving child. With the love of her adoptive family, friends, and volunteers, she transformed it into a place of warmth, healing, and community to be a beacon of hope for refugees, orphans, and those rebuilding their lives.
Why "The Approving Seal"? Meet Enkrisi, Kaethe’s lazy pet seal! His name means "Approval" and yes, we do love a good pun.
What to Expect:
A Warm Welcome – Sip, chat, and relax in our inviting space.
Charity & Care – Supporting those who’ve faced hardship.
Community Spirit – Where every visitor becomes part of the family.
Join Us! Whether you’re here for a drink, a story, or a chance to give back, The Approving Seal is your home away from home.

It is Starlight once more!In Eorzea, it's a time to think of children who are less fortunate and bring them joy this time of year, just as the Saint did all those years ago.With war and tragedy strife in the world it has left many children as orphans and refugees. That is, both in Etheirys and the real world.With The Approving Seal as a charity aimed at helping orphans and refugees, which is based in Terncliff, Werlyt, Starlight is an important holiday.In the spirit of things we encourage charitable giving to similar causes in the real world and have a Just Giving page for exactly that, which is optional and people can give to other causes if preferred.In our celebration of Starlight, we will be hosting a few activities at the Seal, with some details below.
