Subject: Re: Request for slight extension of open shops

Briarmoon Cove will remain open until late on the 5th, so that people can get some extra shopping in. Merchant services will not be available over that weekend.

Platinum will remain open until at least the 10th for shopping.

Subject: Tentative Briarmoon Cove Dates

We are going to be adding more onto Briarmoon Cove (BMC), which is going to take some time.

Our plan is to move BMC to the first weekend of December. The weekend is going to be the "main event" where the week will be left for shopping, casual RP, and possibly some lighter merchant work (not service heavy at all).

Sorry that this is being pushed out so far from the original announcement. We just want to make sure we do BMC right.

Wyrom, PM

All,

Just to let you know, I've updated the entrances to Briarmoon Cove on GSWiki.

It should also be accessible via QUEST TRANSPORT BRIARMOON once it's open.

Subject: Briarmoon Cove Weekend Service Schedule

Hello everyone,

I'm sharing the weekend service schedule for Briarmoon Cove over the dates of December 5th and 6th. This is merely an outline, and all times may need to be modified during the event, as the holidays can be a hectic time for everyone. We'll try to remain as communicative as possible if we make adjustments. Most of these services will be set up as raffles, but some may still be distributed via spinner, even if it isn't indicated as such here. As we get closer, more information will be given about the offerings on the forums and/or on raffle tickets once the event opens. We're all excited to see you guys at our winter event!

Subject: New Material: Aranthium

Found rarely in areas of intense volcanic and magical activity, aranthium is a naturally occurring metal that is alchemically similar to krodera and kroderine. Spells cast on aranthium are absorbed into its metallic structure. Unlike the aforementioned metals, aranthium stores absorbed magic in a stable state, allowing spellcasters to release that energy in a burst of mana. Aranthium does not have much luster. Its natural cream color often causes laypeople to confuse it with ivory, at least from a distance.

Subject: Briarmoon Cove Farewell!

Thank you all for attending our winter event!! We're all so glad that most of you enjoyed your time in our little town.

I want to thank all of the GMs on staff that worked so hard to create shops, give approvals, help out with small fixes, and provide services over the first weekend. We had to postpone earlier this year, and we really tried to make it a worthwhile endeavor by the end of the year. World Team worked especially hard to support this event, and I'm really proud of everything they did to bring it together!!

We appreciate all the feedback you guys gave, as well, and we'll take that into consideration for the future.

Happy Holidays!!

Subject: Briarmoon Cove To Celebrate The Day of Zelia's Warning!

The secluded haven of Briarmoon Cove will be freely reopening to the public on the 27th of Charlatos through the 3rd of Olaesta, for another worldly trade-laden festival centered around The Day of Zelia's Warning! The seaside retreat will be offering select shops packed with attractive goods from all of the most notable towns. Many well-known artisans have already accepted our invitations to display their wares and talents during the festivities, and our guests will be delighted by a plethora of commodities and services, both unique and familiar. We hope to see you all at the end of this month.

Briarmoon Cove awaits once again!

Subject: Briarmoon Cove Thwarted By Storms and Snowfall

A Note From The Mayor's Desk:

Briarmoon Cove has been pummeled by the violent storm systems that have been present across the region, and as such, we sadly must cancel all the festivities that we had planned over the next few weeks. We are devastated that so many merchants and visitors are unable to join us right now. Our ports have been completely obscured by the heavy snow and ice we've experienced. No ships are allowed to leave, and none will be allowed to dock, either. As of last evening, Liabo Pier was struck by lightning, causing a massive amount of damage to our coastline. We have dispatched workers to stabilize and rebuild, but this will take us some time. I speak on behalf of our town when I say that we hope to invite everyone back at a future date, when the forces of nature settle down once again.
