The '''Valley of Gold''' was a once-off festival held jointly by both elves and humans on neutral grounds along the western side of the Dragonspine Mountains, nestled within a valley for which the festival was named. It culminated in the signing of an accord of mutual respect between both Ta'Illistim and the Turamzzyrian Empire by their leaders, Argent Mirror [[Myasara]] and Emporer [[Aurmont Anodheles]].

MONEY: All notes will be accepted (even Teras notes, as an example). Raffles (there won't be too many of them) will require silver. There will not be a bank on the festival grounds (so make sure you keep 1000 silver on you so you can get into Zul Logoth (probably best to keep more in case of thieves)). Premium FWI teleporters WILL work on festival grounds.

ADDRESSING THE LEADERS (per GM Valyrka): "Argent Mirror" as the name and "the Argent Mirror" as the title for [[Myasara Illistim]]. "Emperor" as the name and title for [[Aurmont Chandrennin Anodheles]].

== Location ==

The entrance to the Valley of Gold is between the Glo'antern Moor and [[Khazar's Hold]] on the western route to Zul Logoth. As you get closer, from either direction, pale white signs will point you along the path. The valley is not far from Khazar's Hold.

<pre{{log2}}>[Western DragonSpine, Base - 1032]
The whole of Glo'antern Moor stretches out to the west, although much of it is shrouded in a dense layer of fog. Strange pinpoints of light appear to flicker and dance in the mists. Where the fog is not present the moor is a dark grey interspersed with small, lighter grey blotches. A tall range of snow-capped mountains looms to the north, east and southeast, while a broad forest extends along far to the northwest. In the distance a rock plateau rises above the mists, its top perfectly flat. You also see a rocky path leading down into the mist and a pale white sign.
Obvious paths: southwest, up</pre>

A gold ring will work from inside the valley.

Representational map of rooms comprising the Valley of Gold festival venue. The entrance path is noted on the map as from the Western Dragonspine, Elven Nations Trail, Lich Room #1032.

The Valley of Gold was a once-off festival held jointly by both elves and humans on neutral grounds along the western side of the Dragonspine Mountains, nestled within a valley for which the festival was named. It culminated in the signing of an accord of mutual respect between both Ta'Illistim and the Turamzzyrian Empire by their leaders, Argent Mirror Myasara and Emporer Aurmont Anodheles.

Argent Mirror Myasara and Emporer Aurmont Anodheles have agreed to meet and sign an Accord of Mutual Respect between their two nations, Ta'Illistm and the Turamzzyrian Empire. To celebrate this historic event, the Valley of Gold within the Dragonspine Mountains is serving as the venue for a variety of shops, merchants, and speakers to celebrate both cultures and their shared bonds.

All notes will be accepted on the festival grounds. Raffles will require silvers. There will not be a bank on the festival grounds (so make sure you keep 1000 silver on you so you can get into Zul Logoth). Premium transporters WILL work on festival grounds.

The entrance to the Valley of Gold is between the Glo'antern Moor and Khazar's Hold on the western route to Zul Logoth. As you get closer from either direction, pale white signs will point you along the path. The valley is not far from Khazar's Hold.
