[Ebon Gate] Announcing the Reunion Vault

on #forums/paid-events channel
This year at Ebon Gates, we will be featuring the Reunion Vault. It will have the following items inside:
• Two 25-use keys (for Trick-or-Treat, Herb Hunt)
• Two 25-use cubes (for Arena of the Abyss or the new game)
• +50% 30-day death certificate
• 90-use death’s sting salve
•. Lotus Oil
• The Ferryman’s Lantern^
• A Glass Pane Folio^^
^The Ferryman’s Lantern (lore to be released soon) is a wrought iron lantern that is decided to be placed at the feet and will move on spindled legs with its owner. It will provide ambient messaging that changes based on the Season, 4-specfic Holidays (Cholen’s Eve, Zelia’s Warning, Festival of Oleani, and Eve of Reunion), which glass panes are installed in the lantern, and if it is in Naidem.
The lantern has two special features, the ability to briefly steal light from the surrounding area or the ability to dispel local shadows. These features can only be done in Naidem.
Each lantern has four windows, that can be fitted with panes found in the various games.
Additionally, the Lantern will tell the Tale of the Ferryman when appropriately manipulated. This tale is portrayed through illusions, shadows, and a disembodied voice.
^^A glass pane folio is designed to hold your spare windowpanes when they are not installed in the lantern. It can hold a total of 75 glass panes weightlessly. Glass panes can be altered. “`

MORE INFO from announcement thread:
l lantern
Wrought iron forms the sturdy frame of a hook-topped wrought iron lantern, its weathered finish hinting at long years of use. A large metal ring juts from the top, allowing for easy transport or hanging. Four frames decorate the sides of the lantern a missing pane occupies the first position, a missing pane occupies the second position, a missing pane occupies the third position, and a missing pane occupies the fourth. Beneath the panes, intricate scrollwork decorates the lantern’s base, giving it an air of old-world craftsmanship.
You have the second pane positioned to be manipulated
>push lantern
Angling the lantern downward, you carefully slide a mouse-etched pale arathiel pane into the wrought iron casing.
>spin my lantern
Cupping the base of the lantern in your open palm, you slowly rotate it until the third empty pane faces you. As you gaze at it, you realize that you can now manipulate or allow the images within this window to be displayed when the lantern is lit.

You trace an intricate sign that contorts in the air while forcefully invoking Balefire…
Your spell is ready.
G>cast my lantern
You gesture at a hook-topped wrought iron lantern.
As the fire spell touches a hook-topped wrought iron lantern, the copper-tinged, luminous green flame leaps to life, spreading a warm light through the intricate glass etchings and creating dancing shadows across the ground.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
You can cast Major or Minor Fire, Balefire, or Spirit Fire at the lantern to light it. You can also light it with matches. Each type has a different color that lights it.
>place lantern
You gently lower a hook-topped wrought iron lantern to the ground, the metal ring atop it swaying slightly. The glass panes rattle softly as they settle into place, casting an array of light across the floor.
Automatically put its at feet.
Drop does not.
Rising on spindled metal legs, a hook-topped wrought iron lantern follows you as you make your way south. It high steps in an awkward parody of walking before settling back at your feet.
Placed alongside you is a hook-topped wrought iron lantern.
Panes will be game drops, like golem parts. You get a folio to store them in right off the bat, then!Panes can be made out of any kind of glass.
They can be freely altered
They cannot be used for alter fodder.
The flame’s light spills through a rose etched into the azure vaelfyren panes of a hook-topped wrought iron lantern, casting a delicate dance of shadows.
>raise lantern
You raise a hook-topped wrought iron lantern high, the light spilling from it to cast long shadows across the ground and brightening the area around you with a gentle radiance.
>cover lantern
You cup your hand over a hook-topped wrought iron lantern, allowing only a small sliver of light to filter through, illuminating your face with a soft, warm glow.
