PREMIUM FEST EVENT: As the ominous signs and symptoms of Something Very Bad continue in the home of the Acqael, where the Premium Festival is going on, we have been asked to gather a shell, one that speaks to us, and bring it on Friday night at 9pm. We will learn how to use it for the ceremony to reseal the threatening Burning Ember (potentially a high risk volcanic event). A Shell, A Song, to Help Right What is Wrong.

To those who walk the dry paths,
By the accord between depths and shore, you are asked to attend a gathering of significance beneath the waves. On the Eve of the Huntress, as the ninth bell tolls by land dweller reckoning, make your way to the Volcanic Cavern, where flame meets flow. We will prepare for the Rite of Soothing, to be held on Feastday, at the second hour by land dweller time.
Bring with you a single shell, one chosen by both mind and spirit. This token will mark your presence and bind your intent. Each shell holds memory. Each offering matters. This offering will serve as both token and tether, for the rites to come are not merely witnessed, but felt.
The current shift. The seal thins. The deep listens. What sleeps begins to wake.

(Friday June 27, 9 pm ET and Saturday June 28 2pm ET.)
