Event 04: Tragedy! At the Festival End

It is the last night of the Summer Festival; with it comes the return of the final item to the Hero’s statue. Despite the military’s best efforts, the three sacred artifacts are joined together at long last and the truth unfolds. 

The Hero of Aventurine legend had never been Kvendi at all.

From the sheen of dragon scales sewed into the Cloak to the detailed metalwork of the illustrious Sword, it is clear that the Hero hails from the Fire Region. The crest located on the front of the Book shows her to be of noble, dragon birth. 

With the truth revealed, the Hero’s spirit thanks those brave few that sought out the three items of legend. Her ire sated, she revokes the curse on Aventurine and rests in peace. 

But all is not well, now that the citizens know the famous legend has undergone factual changes. Many wonder what other deceptions the Council has kept secret all these years.

Event 04: Tragedy! At The Festival is now over. Thank you to everyone that participated in the event and Friday’s Group RP. We will post a log of the rp and summarization of the event in the near future.

Event 04: Tragedy! At the Festival Start

The festival started off as it always did: with much jubilation. The stalls stretched far down the beach and between them moved throngs of people. Attendants had come near and far to attend the celebration. They dutifully bowed to the statue at the center of the festivities --a grand thing made of the most precious of gems and stones-- paying reverance to the hero that had saved Aventurine long ago.

The play started off as it always did, but did not go as planned. Lightning cracked across the sky and struck the stage as the actress-hero plunged her sword into the chest of the devilish sea dragon. A dense fog quickly rolled in from the inky sea and a panicked hush fell upon those present.

The hero's statue glowed with an unearthly light and a booming voice addressed the festivalgoers, echoing across the coast. "Oh Aventurine, to whom I have given my love and my trust, you have betrayed me in the worst of ways. The misdeeds of this city have not gone unnoticed, nor will they be forgiven so long as you continue to deceive this world. If the truth is not brought to light in seven days’ time, the foul beast I had once vanquished will awaken once more.

“Find the three relics that proved to be this city’s salvation --the Cloak of Mist, the Radiant Tome, and the Blade of Veracity-- and return them to this likeness of myself. These items hold the key to righting Aventurine’s wrongs and giving my spirit its final peace.”

With those solemn words, the statue ceased to glow. Whispers were shared among all who had heard the proclamation. Everyone knew of the Cloak, The Book, and the Sword. But where, oh where could they be?

Event 04: Tragedy! At The Festival

With the Summer Solstice fast approaching, Aventurine is following its usual traditional route by putting on a play that they’ve continued for centuries and inviting all citizens to watch. The play tells the story of a young Kvendi woman who slays a sea dragon attacking the city, thus restoring peace. As a result, her sacrifice results in her untimely death, and the Council now regards her as a hero and continues to show others her deeds during the Summer Solstice Festival. 

However things are not as they seem, and for unknown reasons her spirit has risen from the sea, demanding atonement in the form of the cloak, spell book, and sword she used during the battle.

Event 04 will begin tomorrow, Sunday, August 02, and will end the following Sunday, August 09. The schedule for the week is as follows:

[08/02] Sunday -- Event Start

[08/03] Monday -- Hunt for the Cloak

[08/05] Wednesday -- Hunt for the Book

[08/07] Friday -- Group RP: Ferrix & Kyurin Dinner Party

[08/09] Sunday -- Hunt for the Sword + Event End

The scavenger hunt aspect of the event will take place over the course of the week. We will release clues regarding each item’s location and what trials characters may face on their scheduled day. For example: an image or text excerpt regarding the cloak and its location will be released on Monday.

The Ferrix & Kyurin Dinner Party RP is the only official group rp scheduled for this upcoming week. However, if members have the time they are free to group together to rp the retrieval of an item. It is also acceptable for members to have their characters search for the item passively, rather than directly through an rp. 

If you are interested in participating in Event 04, please send a message to this blog in the following format:

Event 04 (Cloak, Book, Or Sword): Characters Participating / Ferr + Kyu: YES / NO --if yes, Characters Participating

You can participate in multiple scavenger hunts. We would just like to have an idea of how many characters will be involved in each night for further planning.
