Teaser #1<br> |
|||
GM Xynwen released this fantastic new erithi lore document: https://gswiki.play.net/Erithi_Storytelling |
|||
Teaser #2<br> |
|||
I will be debuting a new highly customizable fluff item at premium festival this year. They are called Dreamfire Panel Bracelets. Here is a teaser excerpt from their analyze: |
|||
''> Although these devices were originally designed by erithian artists for use in storytelling, their usage has expanded dramatically after introduction to other cultures. It is not uncommon to find such devices being coveted by collectors, fortune tellers, gamblers, or anyone with an eye for unusual magical devices.'' |
|||
They will debut with over 700 custom images available immediately. |
|||
Teaser #3<br> |
|||
I will be providing the wiki pages for the item sometime on Wednesday or Thursday. The link will drop in this thread and on Discord. |

}}I will also be offering Fluff Script Swapping to a limited number of people during Premium Fest. |
|||
This service requires you to have two similar pieces of gear. Very similar. One should have a fluff-only script (which means that it can't have unlockable tiers or abilities that aren't fluff), and you should wish to have that script moved onto the other item (leaving the original piece unscripted). These items should be as similar as possible otherwise, and it's highly recommended that you bring backups for this service. There are any number of factors that might render your preferred swap impossible, up to and including the simple complexity of the script. It should also be noted that no scripts will be swapped off of something that would make the leftover 'thing' incorrect. A good example of this would be a pet script (kittens, hedgehogs, etc), where if the script were to be moved off of that 'item', it wouldn't make sense. |
|||
This service, as well as the Enhancive Property Removal and the PP Enhancive Reconfiguration, will be offered Sunday afternoon (the 10th of July) in the early afternoon, EST. I will do one service, then the next, then the next, and will announce each time before selecting the group for the next service up. For each group, I will spin for customers. |

}}The elderly elven woman sits comfortably in her armchair, rubbing her swollen hands as she gazes at her work table. She glances at the ladder, awaiting whomever just came into her wagon and sees a smiling face pop up from the opening. |
|||
“I have your tea, granny.” |
|||
“Oh, thank you, dear. And what of my other shipments?” |
|||
“Yes. Special order of that armor from the Order of Voln and some orbs from the Mage’s Guild. Both have arrived and have been stored away until you're ready for them.” |
|||
The elven woman walks over to the young girl and takes the cup of tea, nodding and smiling as she moves back to sit in her chair. |
|||
“That’s good dear, that’s very good. I imagine our visitors will be very pleased. Are all the dresses and shoes on display?” |
|||
The young girl finishes climbing up into the loft and sits across from the old elf, “Yes, granny. It is all prepared. You’ll get the Mirror’s eye with this batch of gowns. I just know it!” |
|||
Granny Yulieanne glances above the rim of her spectacles and sips delicately at her tea, before answering, “Yes, dear girl. Let us hope. It has only been my dream to be the talk of the town with my dresses and to have the Mirror wear one of my creations.” |
|||
The elven woman glances at the swatches of fabric and sighs wistfully. |

|||
These are not illusion props that appear in your appearance, correct. |
|||
It's a zesty item with fancy messaging and lots of customizations. Starting at tier 2, the bracelet can create illusion props that appear in the room that others can interact with. Most of the interactions will be to LOOK or GAZE/PEER at it. Since they aren't tangible, you can't touch them. They are magical illusions. |

}}A summary of some information revealed on Discord: |
|||
General information: |
|||
- Panels that are currently attached to your bracelet do not count against your item limit.<br> |
|||
- Unlocked scenery panels only capture the room name and description, they do not capture players/npcs.<br> |
|||
- There are no plans to allow for the Dreamfire Panel Bracelets to be worn on a different location. (That would require a new script because a lot of the messaging is very specific to them being a wrist-worn.) |
|||
At Premium Festival: |
|||
- Alterations of concealed illusions will only be performed by the merchant Elusionari.<br> |
|||
- There will be a Tier 1 to Tier 2 unlock certificate sold off the shelf.<br> |
|||
- There will be a certification sold off the shelf that can increase the number of attachment points on a bracelet by 1 (up to 5).<br> |
|||
- Unlocks to Tier 3 and adding attachment points 6-10 will be merchant services provided by Elusionari. |
|||
Feel free to ask other questions if you have any. |

|||
}}All those with access to the Isle of Four Winds are invited to the Iyo Glade, deep in the heart of the isle and home to the indigenous Iyo people. The Iyo Crafter Uhlen has organized a Festival, and merchants have been invited from across Elanthia to come and peddle their wares. The shopping options are many and varied, with something for everyone! |
|||
The Festival Grounds also feature a couple of games, with prizes to be won, and merchants will be dropping in from time to time to work for live audiences. Keep an eye out for raffles, games, and who knows what else! |
|||
Rumor has it that there may be a couple of exotic bugs to be found on the grounds, for those with the equipment and the desire to acquire them! |
|||
Uhlen and the rest of the Iyo families await your arrival, as they open their home to outsiders for the first time. |
|||
~~ |
|||
OOC bits: |
|||
There is a portion of the grounds that is currently inaccessible. This is intentional, and it will open up fairly soon. This morning on FWI there was a LARGE storm, and a massive bolt of lightning struck... something... near the center of the Isle. Once the result of that bolt of lightning has been dealt with, the area will open up. |
|||
For those wishing to brush up on the Iyo: https://gswiki.play.net/Iyo |
|||
I hope you all enjoy the new grounds, and the entire Festival with all its offerings! I will do a fully enumerated list of thanks once the Fest has concluded, but there have been so many GMs who have put time and energy into making this Fest as good as we can, and I am exceedingly grateful for each of them. |
|||
Thanks! |

}}Hello! I'm a little late to the party, but here is the information regarding the raffles I have set up for the festival: |
|||
'''Magic Item Recharging''' There are a total of 20 slots per instance that I am splitting into two drawings of 10 winners each in hopes of accommodating a wider range of schedules. Additional charges will be applied as determined by the spell being recharged. Some select spells and those level 20 and above are not eligible for this service. Evrai will remain at the raffle location to redeem wins for at least an hour after the final name is drawn. Look for Crystalline Creations and SEARCH for a way behind the moss to find the raffle tables. |
|||
'''6x GEF Lightning UAC Gear''' There are two raffles with one winner a piece in each instance, one for boots and one for gloves. Each premade item is a piece 6x (+30) Greater Elemental Flaring aka GEF Lightning UAC gear. Cisilie will be lingering nearby the raffles for an hour or more to redeem the wins and possibly provide other services. |
|||
As time permits, Evrai will be stopping by to work on the wares from her shop, Crystalline Creations. Likewise, Cisilie will be coming around to her shop, Craft and Create, to do GALD and alter bundles of items from her shop as time allows. |

| subject = Firewheel Flowers - New Official Lore |
|||
}}There are two plants colloquially known as "firewheel" flowers. One is a brilliant bloom that grows low to the ground in a fiery burst of color, the second, which is the bloom we will be discussing, is a bright red or orange blossom with gangly petals that grow upon the firewheel tree itself. Somewhat resembling a jester's hat, the flower has long slender petals tipped with round protrusions in a different color. Alone, it is stunning. When grouped with others covering an entire tree's canopy, the sight is mesmerizing. |
|||
However, we are not here to talk about all firewheel flowers. Rather, we are here to speak on flowers from a particular grove deep in the interior of the Isle of Four Winds. Flowers from this grove exhibit unique characteristics and seem almost sentient in nature, a phenomenon I have studied to the best of my ability, and will attempt to explain to some degree. |
|||
Having studied a specimen myself in a laboratory setting and having performed various tests on said specimen, I have detected very subtle magic suffusing the flowers from this particular grove. Interestingly, the touch of this subtle, hidden magic does not fully overcome the flowers' pleasant demeanor. Something fundamental, as yet undetermined, changes within the flowers that are exposed to this magic. I have not yet had the pleasure of testing any of the bark from the trees in this particular grove, as the Iyo are particularly protective of it. They consider the grove, the "Heart of the Island", as best I can translate it. As such, I may not yet determine the interaction, if any, between the tree and the flower, nor may I determine the importance of any such interaction. |
|||
In conclusion, at this time it may be faithfully spoken that some particular magic unique to its location is permeating the "Heart of the Island" and creating some very unique characteristics to the firewheel flowers growing on the trees within. |

|||
}}Hi all, |
|||
The Firewheel Grove area of the Iyo Glade will be opening very shortly! In this small area you will find raffles set up for firewheel weapons and instruments (5 weapons, 2 instruments), all drawing Monday night (the 11th) and none requiring you to be there live. |
|||
You will also find a pair of firewheel trees somewhat closer to the path, that can be SHAKEn. Shaking one of these trees gives a small chance for you to dislodge a firewheel flower (which will drift to the ground). The firewheel flowers themselves are a brand new script from GM Jainna, and have unlockable tiers that she will be bringing a merchant around to work on. There is no limit on the number of firewheel flowers a player can generate, but there is a small cooldown (2 minutes) on the trees themselves after producing a flower. Both trees produce the exact same flowers, just FYI. |
|||
For the firewheel instrument raffle, these are master quality instruments, and 3 will be distributed to bards. This raffle is to distribute the first two (without restrictions), after which I will distribute the rest (once I see how many more need to go to bards). For example, if both of the raffle winners happen to be bards, I will set out another raffle for two winners and schedule a time to spin for the fifth (Bard only). But up to two instruments can go out to non-bards via this method. |

|||
}}Hi all, |
|||
As another Premium Fest is in the rearview mirror, I wanted to take a few minutes for some well-deserved thanks. |
|||
This Premium Fest featured a completely new grounds, the Iyo Glade, with a strong FWI Roleplay tie-in. Many individuals signed up to play Iyo purely to support the immersive environment we were trying to create, and did an amazing job of it. My deepest thanks to them for playing along so well. |
|||
Mini-Games were a new addition to the Festival this year, and GM Mazreth did an amazing job setting those up and doing all the messaging for them. Mazreth also set up and configured the runestaff lathe and the NPC associated with it. The prizes for the mini-games were designed by GMs Marstreforn and Caerrigan, who put some really fun things in there for you guys. |
|||
GM Meraki introduced Dreamfire Bracelets, and GM Jainna debuted her Firewheel Flowers, both of which were a big hit. |
|||
Considering this was a brand new festival grounds, we needed to create all new shops for everything, and for this I first want to thank the players. I put out a call last year for ideas of things that people wished to see for sale off the shelf at Premium Fest, and that was where we started. I collected everything that was thrown out there, put together a list, and tried to provide as many of those things as possible. Then (many) GMs went through that list and picked items to design these new shops around. |
|||
I would like to specifically thank the following individuals for their invaluable help, without which this Festival wouldn't have been anything near as good as it was. |
|||
GM Caerrigan<br> |
|||
GM Casil<br> |
|||
GM Elidi<br> |
|||
GM Estild<br> |
|||
GM Elysani<br> |
|||

|||
GM Wylloh<br> |
|||
GM Wyrom<br> |
|||
GM Xeraphina<br> |
|||

|||
In addition, huge thanks go to the Dev and QC teams for handling approvals and QC for this festival so ably, and a special extra thanks to GM Wyrom for his assistance putting on the two trial Premium Point Auction events, and to Dev for handling approvals for that as well. |
|||
And finally, thank you to all the players that came out, wandered the grounds, made fun of Gus (the tortoise), asked a million questions of the Iyo, played the games, collected all the Firewheel Flowers, and stared in awe at the Dreamfire options. It was immensely gratifying seeing you all have fun with this, and that's what makes it fun for all of us. So thank you for coming out in support of this Festival, and we will plan to invite you all back next year! |

Hi all!
For next year's Premium Fest, now is the time to start thinking about requests for things you'd like to see offered in some form or another.
A few guidelines:
1) If you can get it at a pay event, you're not getting it at Premium Fest. 2) The festival is largely fluff things, with a sprinkling of mechanical stuff. 3) Premium services (things related to Premium such as transporter messaging, anchoring, and things like that) are definitely possible.
Please post your requests as a reply to this, and I will collate them into a list and see what can be done. I will stop taking requests on February 1st, 2022. Any requests made after that will be for the 2023 Premium Fest!
Thanks, all, and get those requests in!

Thanks for these, guys!
If you want to follow along, I'm collecting all the requests here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_V6PaFqJK5V7mfUWzJAomYryV7o9rx4rWvzAHXLY1mI/edit?usp=sharing
One point of clarification (thank you Naamit): Guideline 1 is a bit more all-encompassing than I intended. There are plenty of things (Veola, Hair Picks, Rainbowear, etc) that are available at pay events, but ALSO have been offered at free festivals. Things like this can absolutely be suggested for Premium Fest. If an item or service has never been previously offered at a free festival, odds are good that it won't be eligible for this list.

Subject: Preparations ~ A Premium Fest 2022 Teaser
Uhlen watched as a trio of workers carried in another series of split logs, laying them carefully along the edges of the prescribed pathway. She gnawed slightly on the inside corner of her lip as she pondered what else still needed to be done, and felt the slight scar tissue that had built up over the previous weeks' efforts... and worries.
She turned to stare across the meadow, noting that the grass had been evenly trimmed away from the pathway, and that the signposts and totems were in place. All of the families had pitched in, and she was more grateful than she had thought possible. She was still so nervous, though. This was huge, and she knew it, but it was the right thing to do for all of them.
"So when are you going to tell them?" came a voice from nearby. Uhlen didn't jump, but she did whip her head around at the familiar voice. Uhrayn grinned at her, the expression as infectious as always, and Uhlen felt an answering smile creep across her face.
"Soon," she assured her brother. "They have some troubles they're dealing with right now, but they have a remarkable way of dealing with hardship."
"Yes, yes, we know, little one," Uhrayn teased. "You've said as much and more in convincing everyone to go along with this."
Uhlen blushed slightly at her brother's tone, but shrugged all the same.
"They're worthy of our respect, brother. And it's past time we treated them as neighbors."
Uhrayn's grin faded a little, and after a moment he nodded.
"But... why a Festival?" he asked for what seemed like the hundredth time.
This time it was Uhlen's turn to grin.
"You'll see," she retorted, as she always did.
~~
This year's Premium Fest will be held on a completely new festival grounds, and will be hosted by the Iyo families that live at the heart of the Isle of Four Winds.
(Many) more details will be forthcoming as we draw closer to the event, especially once that pesky Pashtal has been dealt with, but I wanted to share a bit of a venue teaser.

Subject: Premium Fest 2022 - Partial List of Services
Hi all,
At this year's Premium Fest, in addition to (many) other services that will be offered, I will be offering the following limited services:
- Enhancive Property Removal: This will be for 10 randomly chosen individuals. For a nominal fee, they will be able to have a single POSITIVE enhancive property removed from any item.
- Premium Point Enhancive Reconfiguration: This will be for 10 randomly chosen individuals. For a moderate fee, they will be able to completely rebuild an EXISTING Premium Point Enhancive that is already attuned to them. This will be a complete "redo", as if you were getting a new PP enhancive of the same tier from scratch. Getting enhancives from another tier is not permitted as part of this service.
Partial list of other services that are slated to be offered for a limited number of individuals:
- Recharging magical items for silvers
- Alteration Sessions
- Animal Companion Grooming
- Sonic Alterations
- Custom Swears
- Custom Verbs
Please note that the above is a very limited list, just intended as a teaser of sorts, and to let people know about services for which they might want to plan. The Enhancive Removal and PP Enhancive Reconfiguration will be scheduled ahead of time, giving people time to plan if they're interested in either service.
More information to come as we get closer to the actual event!

It is not uncommon to find such devices being coveted by collectors, fortune tellers, gamblers, or anyone with an eye for unusual magical devices.
They will debut with over 700 custom images available immediately.
Teaser #3
I will be providing the wiki pages for the item sometime on Wednesday or Thursday. The link will drop in this thread and on Discord.

I will also be offering Fluff Script Swapping to a limited number of people during Premium Fest.
This service requires you to have two similar pieces of gear. Very similar. One should have a fluff-only script (which means that it can't have unlockable tiers or abilities that aren't fluff), and you should wish to have that script moved onto the other item (leaving the original piece unscripted). These items should be as similar as possible otherwise, and it's highly recommended that you bring backups for this service. There are any number of factors that might render your preferred swap impossible, up to and including the simple complexity of the script. It should also be noted that no scripts will be swapped off of something that would make the leftover 'thing' incorrect. A good example of this would be a pet script (kittens, hedgehogs, etc), where if the script were to be moved off of that 'item', it wouldn't make sense.
This service, as well as the Enhancive Property Removal and the PP Enhancive Reconfiguration, will be offered Sunday afternoon (the 10th of July) in the early afternoon, EST. I will do one service, then the next, then the next, and will announce each time before selecting the group for the next service up. For each group, I will spin for customers.
Thanks,

The elderly elven woman sits comfortably in her armchair, rubbing her swollen hands as she gazes at her work table. She glances at the ladder, awaiting whomever just came into her wagon and sees a smiling face pop up from the opening.
“I have your tea, granny.”
“Oh, thank you, dear. And what of my other shipments?”
“Yes. Special order of that armor from the Order of Voln and some orbs from the Mage’s Guild. Both have arrived and have been stored away until you're ready for them.”
The elven woman walks over to the young girl and takes the cup of tea, nodding and smiling as she moves back to sit in her chair.
“That’s good dear, that’s very good. I imagine our visitors will be very pleased. Are all the dresses and shoes on display?”
The young girl finishes climbing up into the loft and sits across from the old elf, “Yes, granny. It is all prepared. You’ll get the Mirror’s eye with this batch of gowns. I just know it!”
Granny Yulieanne glances above the rim of her spectacles and sips delicately at her tea, before answering, “Yes, dear girl. Let us hope. It has only been my dream to be the talk of the town with my dresses and to have the Mirror wear one of my creations.”
The elven woman glances at the swatches of fabric and sighs wistfully.

These are not illusion props that appear in your appearance, correct.
It's a zesty item with fancy messaging and lots of customizations. Starting at tier 2, the bracelet can create illusion props that appear in the room that others can interact with. Most of the interactions will be to LOOK or GAZE/PEER at it. Since they aren't tangible, you can't touch them. They are magical illusions.

A summary of some information revealed on Discord:
General information:
- Panels that are currently attached to your bracelet do not count against your item limit.
- Unlocked scenery panels only capture the room name and description, they do not capture players/npcs.
- There are no plans to allow for the Dreamfire Panel Bracelets to be worn on a different location. (That would require a new script because a lot of the messaging is very specific to them being a wrist-worn.)
At Premium Festival:
- Alterations of concealed illusions will only be performed by the merchant Elusionari.
- There will be a Tier 1 to Tier 2 unlock certificate sold off the shelf.
- There will be a certification sold off the shelf that can increase the number of attachment points on a bracelet by 1 (up to 5).
- Unlocks to Tier 3 and adding attachment points 6-10 will be merchant services provided by Elusionari.
Feel free to ask other questions if you have any.

Subject: Premium Fest 2022 - The Iyo Glade
All those with access to the Isle of Four Winds are invited to the Iyo Glade, deep in the heart of the isle and home to the indigenous Iyo people. The Iyo Crafter Uhlen has organized a Festival, and merchants have been invited from across Elanthia to come and peddle their wares. The shopping options are many and varied, with something for everyone!
The Festival Grounds also feature a couple of games, with prizes to be won, and merchants will be dropping in from time to time to work for live audiences. Keep an eye out for raffles, games, and who knows what else!
Rumor has it that there may be a couple of exotic bugs to be found on the grounds, for those with the equipment and the desire to acquire them!
Uhlen and the rest of the Iyo families await your arrival, as they open their home to outsiders for the first time.
~~
OOC bits:
There is a portion of the grounds that is currently inaccessible. This is intentional, and it will open up fairly soon. This morning on FWI there was a LARGE storm, and a massive bolt of lightning struck... something... near the center of the Isle. Once the result of that bolt of lightning has been dealt with, the area will open up.
For those wishing to brush up on the Iyo: https://gswiki.play.net/Iyo
I hope you all enjoy the new grounds, and the entire Festival with all its offerings! I will do a fully enumerated list of thanks once the Fest has concluded, but there have been so many GMs who have put time and energy into making this Fest as good as we can, and I am exceedingly grateful for each of them.
Thanks!

Hello! I'm a little late to the party, but here is the information regarding the raffles I have set up for the festival:
Magic Item Recharging There are a total of 20 slots per instance that I am splitting into two drawings of 10 winners each in hopes of accommodating a wider range of schedules. Additional charges will be applied as determined by the spell being recharged. Some select spells and those level 20 and above are not eligible for this service. Evrai will remain at the raffle location to redeem wins for at least an hour after the final name is drawn. Look for Crystalline Creations and SEARCH for a way behind the moss to find the raffle tables.
6x GEF Lightning UAC Gear There are two raffles with one winner a piece in each instance, one for boots and one for gloves. Each premade item is a piece 6x (+30) Greater Elemental Flaring aka GEF Lightning UAC gear. Cisilie will be lingering nearby the raffles for an hour or more to redeem the wins and possibly provide other services.
As time permits, Evrai will be stopping by to work on the wares from her shop, Crystalline Creations. Likewise, Cisilie will be coming around to her shop, Craft and Create, to do GALD and alter bundles of items from her shop as time allows.

Subject: Firewheel Flowers - New Official Lore
There are two plants colloquially known as "firewheel" flowers. One is a brilliant bloom that grows low to the ground in a fiery burst of color, the second, which is the bloom we will be discussing, is a bright red or orange blossom with gangly petals that grow upon the firewheel tree itself. Somewhat resembling a jester's hat, the flower has long slender petals tipped with round protrusions in a different color. Alone, it is stunning. When grouped with others covering an entire tree's canopy, the sight is mesmerizing.
However, we are not here to talk about all firewheel flowers. Rather, we are here to speak on flowers from a particular grove deep in the interior of the Isle of Four Winds. Flowers from this grove exhibit unique characteristics and seem almost sentient in nature, a phenomenon I have studied to the best of my ability, and will attempt to explain to some degree.
Having studied a specimen myself in a laboratory setting and having performed various tests on said specimen, I have detected very subtle magic suffusing the flowers from this particular grove. Interestingly, the touch of this subtle, hidden magic does not fully overcome the flowers' pleasant demeanor. Something fundamental, as yet undetermined, changes within the flowers that are exposed to this magic. I have not yet had the pleasure of testing any of the bark from the trees in this particular grove, as the Iyo are particularly protective of it. They consider the grove, the "Heart of the Island", as best I can translate it. As such, I may not yet determine the interaction, if any, between the tree and the flower, nor may I determine the importance of any such interaction.
In conclusion, at this time it may be faithfully spoken that some particular magic unique to its location is permeating the "Heart of the Island" and creating some very unique characteristics to the firewheel flowers growing on the trees within.

Subject: Firewheel Grove is open in Prime
Hi all,
The Firewheel Grove area of the Iyo Glade will be opening very shortly! In this small area you will find raffles set up for firewheel weapons and instruments (5 weapons, 2 instruments), all drawing Monday night (the 11th) and none requiring you to be there live.
You will also find a pair of firewheel trees somewhat closer to the path, that can be SHAKEn. Shaking one of these trees gives a small chance for you to dislodge a firewheel flower (which will drift to the ground). The firewheel flowers themselves are a brand new script from GM Jainna, and have unlockable tiers that she will be bringing a merchant around to work on. There is no limit on the number of firewheel flowers a player can generate, but there is a small cooldown (2 minutes) on the trees themselves after producing a flower. Both trees produce the exact same flowers, just FYI.
For the firewheel instrument raffle, these are master quality instruments, and 3 will be distributed to bards. This raffle is to distribute the first two (without restrictions), after which I will distribute the rest (once I see how many more need to go to bards). For example, if both of the raffle winners happen to be bards, I will set out another raffle for two winners and schedule a time to spin for the fifth (Bard only). But up to two instruments can go out to non-bards via this method.

Subject: Premium Fest 2022 ~ Finit
Hi all,
As another Premium Fest is in the rearview mirror, I wanted to take a few minutes for some well-deserved thanks.
This Premium Fest featured a completely new grounds, the Iyo Glade, with a strong FWI Roleplay tie-in. Many individuals signed up to play Iyo purely to support the immersive environment we were trying to create, and did an amazing job of it. My deepest thanks to them for playing along so well.
Mini-Games were a new addition to the Festival this year, and GM Mazreth did an amazing job setting those up and doing all the messaging for them. Mazreth also set up and configured the runestaff lathe and the NPC associated with it. The prizes for the mini-games were designed by GMs Marstreforn and Caerrigan, who put some really fun things in there for you guys.
GM Meraki introduced Dreamfire Bracelets, and GM Jainna debuted her Firewheel Flowers, both of which were a big hit.
Considering this was a brand new festival grounds, we needed to create all new shops for everything, and for this I first want to thank the players. I put out a call last year for ideas of things that people wished to see for sale off the shelf at Premium Fest, and that was where we started. I collected everything that was thrown out there, put together a list, and tried to provide as many of those things as possible. Then (many) GMs went through that list and picked items to design these new shops around.
I would like to specifically thank the following individuals for their invaluable help, without which this Festival wouldn't have been anything near as good as it was.
GM Caerrigan
GM Casil
GM Elidi
GM Estild
GM Elysani
GM Ethereal

In addition, huge thanks go to the Dev and QC teams for handling approvals and QC for this festival so ably, and a special extra thanks to GM Wyrom for his assistance putting on the two trial Premium Point Auction events, and to Dev for handling approvals for that as well.
And finally, thank you to all the players that came out, wandered the grounds, made fun of Gus (the tortoise), asked a million questions of the Iyo, played the games, collected all the Firewheel Flowers, and stared in awe at the Dreamfire options. It was immensely gratifying seeing you all have fun with this, and that's what makes it fun for all of us. So thank you for coming out in support of this Festival, and we will plan to invite you all back next year!
