So...don't forget about the flotilla history recently released! And teaser info: initially, it may just be a bit of a mobile docking station with fun painting and flavour, but it will have a cleric, healer, bank (outlet of the KF bank). You may even be able to do some fighting!

As you fight, do it in honour of Kynlee -- that was totally her idea, her creation, and her baby. And we renamed the pirate queen from the original draft of the doc to Kyncera to honour her.

The flotilla started off as former GM Sook's idea. He and I brainstormed a whole bunch of things, and Retser approved it. Once I convinced them 'flotilla' was the correct spelling, we were good to go! Unfortunately, life got too busy for Sook, and he had to leave staff.

We eventually circled back to the flotilla, and Kynlee volunteered to paint the Flying Squirrel and the Drowned Moose. She was enthused about the project as a whole, and I know if she had had more time, we would have seen more additions by her!

We renamed the pirate queen from the originally planned Shiyang to Kyncera in honor of Kynlee and dedicated the release of it to her, since it was one of the last things she worked on.

There are a ton of people behind the flotilla at this point, and I'm grateful for all of them! I can't wait til you can see all the new shops :)

Life Aquatic was made as a memorial item for Kynlee.

Since she created the flotilla, that is where it will live.

The reason the collection thingy and bucket are going to live in the Flotilla is to ensure that people explore the last thing that GM Kynlee created. Oftentimes, when we put things in specific places, it is to ensure exploration happens and we get people to expand on where they usually play. We don't do it to be a hindrance.
