While the arrival of the Blood Moon has been a herald of dark tidings for as long as memory can recall, this year has brought an unexpected chaos. Tendrils of darkness and unearthly crimson energy have splayed across the night sky, shades of tentacles that lash at the moons and draw from the depths of nightmares creatures that sow chaos and breed maleficence.
Along with them came a man in crimson robes who called himself Rinid, a seeming convert of Amasalen. He offered proclamations of devastation and ruin, blood that will wash the moons and earth alike, forever changing the face of Elanthia. In his wake followed the most unlikely of allies: Zicune, devotee of Zelia, Sathyra, an agent of Andelas, and Ivaleina, a priestess of Aeia. Together, they aided those who answered the call to thwart Rinid, and discovered a temple buried deep in forgotten forests.
Wielding a trio of moonstone artifacts, they were able to weaken Rinid and slay him before his ritual could be completed. However, with so much of his design left a mystery, their efforts to undo what he had done proved only partially successful. While the tainted and undead were laid to rest and the moons still hung like silent watchers in the night sky, the magics summoned and bent by Rinid remained scarred by what was done, forever altering the natural and spiritual energies of Elanthia.
((OOC Note: For the next few days, mystical fonts of energy will remain within the temple -- one at the end of each wing -- from which you can get yourself a memento of this event. The temple will remain open until the end of the week. In Prime, the portal is in TSSW. In Plat, this portal will be in the Market in Kraken's Fall.))
