Fading into view, a wood sprite steps away from her tree. Glancing to one side, she sees another join her.

"It is over?" he says as he walks about, stretching his arms and legs.

"We are awakening," the other replies. "Now, where is..." She stops abruptly as she looks about, searching for something.

"Did you dream of it, too?" he questions as he begins to move. "Come, we need to find it. It will need our help."

Moving about the forest, the sprites fade from sight.

A lone wood sprite stretches out her branches, a faint creaking accompanying a sigh, before taking in the dawn of the new day. She moves forward through the trees, not entirely sure why but pulled by the remnant of a dream in the back of her mind. Before long she comes across another wood sprite, moving and search as she does. Neither says anything but continue together until the come across a small glade. Taking in the sight before them, the begin to hum together, the ancient harmony of their people slowly building and echoing outwards. In due time the melody grows in strength as more wood sprites arrive and join with them in an ever-growing circle of sprites. Finally, when all have joined the conclave, the music ends and a discussion soon begins.

"Joyous dawn to you all." <br>
"What a Dream I had." <br>
"The Long Sleep is over and what a wonder it brings." <br>
"It has been such a long time since another has joined us." <br>
"But something does not seem right." <br>
"So small, did we wake too soon?" <br>
"We must do something, we must help..." <br>
"The Grove..." <br>
"...needs our help to become stronger..." <br>

More and more voices join in, with the harmony of the earlier melody fading as discordance rises as the discussion continues. As many continue to speak, one wood sprite remains quiet and glides to a nearby tree. Carefully taking a twig from a dangling branch, and then steps into the center of the conclave where a small seedling is growing. Pressing the twig against one of its branches, a pale glow envelopes the sprite's hand, as tiny motes sparkling within the iridescent light. As the radiance fades away, the twig is now incorporated within the seedling's branch, which has in turn grown larger and stronger. New stems are visible, with some unfurling to reveal emerald leaves. (edited)

The glade grew silent as all the sprites watched. The discussion is over, and now each move with a purpose away from the glade. The sprites return with a gathered twig or branch. One by one each approaches the sapling to add to it. With each addition the sapling grows and changes, ever looking stronger and health.

"It is a start," one sprite remarks. <br>
"A good start" <br>
Another shakes its head, "But more will be needed for our brethren." <br>
"Yes, the more that can be gathered the better." <br>
"...the more quickly it can grow." <br>

Stepping forward a larger wood sprite takes in the sapling and the grove, "Waking from the Long Sleep is ever a time to celebrate. This new addition is only more reason to do so. Some have been murmuring to invite all those who visited us before to join us again. Should we not welcome them back? The friendship they showed us before, perhaps they will do so again now. And in turn be of assistance in helping our Grove's newest addition."
The gathering of sprites begins to murmur their agreement, and the ancient and joyous melody can be heard again throughout the glade. Many sprites begin to move, hopping back and forth upon their stick-like legs in a form of dance as they move off to prepare for their visitors. And high up in the sky the rays of the sun reach down into the center of the glade and new sapling rising up from the ground.

50k. I listed the returning perfumes the other day in this channel, but the new ones are:

Ravening Deadwood (smells like dead gross stuff)
Purpleheart (smells like my interpretation of what something called purpleheart should smell like - cherries, plums, rose, pink peppercorns, and sweetwood)
Parsnips! (smells like cabbage...just kidding!...smells like parsnips)
Rainswept Fields (smells like rain and dirt and stuff)
Old Bayou (smells like moss, oak, and salty-ish water)
Saw and Timber (smells like shop class, but NOT Axe body spray)
Sacred Grove (smells mysterious, you have to wait because I think this is sort of my favorite)
Evenfall (smells like jacaranda, orris root, agarwood, and amaryllis belladonna)

I suspect the gross one will sell best (because y'all're weirdos), but that Sacred Grove and Evenfall will be close behind.

Unfolding her body, the sprite gradually fades into view as she seems to slip out of the tree. The branches of the tall, sturdy rosewood shiver as the sprite moves away from the protection of its inner core and slips into the grove.

"How long this time?" she wonders. The long sleep took them quickly and unexpectedly. One by one they had succumbed to the call and retreated into their hosts before drifting away into a deep sleep. "What of the dreams?" she thought as she watched her people join her in the bright sunlight.

Discord Message Link: What's Old Is New Again
Author: GM Xynwen
Date: 5/27/2024


Do you dream of bringing life to that old trinket in your locker? Same! For this year's premium festival, Pennywix the Tinkerer (in conjunction with her controller, GM Xynwen) is bringing some older scripts back again.

  • "Fan" Hats and "Wiper" Glasses: At a push of a button, these hats can cool you off, and the glasses have self-cleaning lenses. No new updates; just the return of a couple fun gadgets.
  • Pin Sashes: Pennywix commissioned a seamstress to whip up these sashes. Like always, they can hold up to twenty of your favorite pinworn items.
  • Mechanical Toys: The Mech Toy from the Dhu Gillywack has been revamped. Existing toys will convert. You can now alter them somewhat, and if you break them, a burghal gnome can fix them. Plus, you can customize the 15/15/15 of the fully broken status. Oh, and teadragons have been added to the available toys.

Clockwork Globes: Originally released in 2001ish, these globes have now been updated as well (existing ones will convert). Alterations are now possible, and there is a generic version now as well, in addition to one for Elanthia, each of the moons, and the celestial ones.

I hope you enjoy these older scripts as much as I do!

Discord Message Link: Hygiene Items
Author: GM Casil
Date: 5/27/2024


This year I am selling several hygiene items so you dirtballs can be less gross. Or more gross? I don't know.

Returning Old Scripts
Nail Files: File your nails (or teeth, you freaks), clean the dirt out from under them. No updates. Basic handkerchiefs: Blow your nose, wipe the streams of sweat off your face, pretend it's just the onions, whatever. Do of this all completely indiscreetly. This has had tiers added to adhere to current shop standards but the verb traps have not changed. Anyone who owns an existing one of these will be fully unlocked already.

Dainty handkerchief: A far more discreet handkerchief, for those of you who are in need of a hanky but don't want to sound like a goose. No updates.

New Script
Knavish Knife: If nail files and floss are not your jam, the Knavish Knife has got you covered for your hygiene needs (and intimidation needs, if you're the sort).

This is a fluff dagger script with four demeanor-based verb traps, no tiers. Available only at premium festival. Not currently offered as a flourish, but perhaps in the future.

I'll show two of the verb traps for the new knavish knives:


Demeanor: Friendly

>clean my knife
Humming to yourself, you casually pick dirt out from under your fingernails with your imflass hunting knife, flicking the accumulated grime off the tip when you're finished.
>poke my knife
Grinning, you pick between your bared teeth with your imflass hunting knife, the metal noisily scraping over the enamel.


Demeanor: Neutral

befriend xynwen cold
You now regard Xynwen with a cold demeanor.
>poke my knife at xynwen
You fix Xynwen with a withering stare, sneering as you pick between your bared teeth with your imflass hunting knife, the metal noisily scraping over the enamel.
>clean my knife
You casually pick dirt out from under your fingernails with your imflass hunting knife, flicking the accumulated grime off the tip when you're finished.


The targeted commands take into account your demeanor AND your demeanor toward the person, so if you are a reserved/cold-type, your interactions with people you are friendly/warm towards will still be somewhat tempered (just not withering), and if you are a perky sort, you won't be overly friendly (or overly mean) to people you have cold/reserved attitude toward.

I'm not offering anything new or updated, BUT I wanted to list out things I have in my shops, just in case you wanted to prepare for GALD sessions.

This is in progress and I'll add as my shops are cleared, but I will be (hopefully) offering sessions to alter:

Premium Fest will offer dressable dolls, clothing & accessories, and traveling trunks for compact storage. There will be an NPC available that can add various designs to any of the base clothing & accessories (and other appropriate items).

>tap gown
You tap a miniature backless satin gown, which is in your right hand.
>give dollmaker
A slim half-elven dollmaker takes your gown, nods, and sets to work adding embellishment to the gown.  When she's finished, she nods approvingly and returns a miniature backless satin gown covered with spiral-swirled candies.

The doll clothing has been updated to now have an ANALYZE. However, in order to trigger this ANALYZE on your existing clothing and accessories, you must either dress or undress a doll with it, place it in a traveling trunk, or open your existing traveling trunk that is already holding the clothing.

I'll definitely be around to do doll alterations. There's probably most definitely absolutely going to be a doll fashion show.

Oh, and any of the new long-adding NPCs around the world can add longs to the clothing and accessories, based on material type. Merchants can alter as well, but I thought I'd make it easy for you to customize doll clothing without having to use a merchant spot.

Summer is just around the corner, and it brings with it warm weather and an ever greater need to quench your thirst. Not to mention the abundance of festivals and parties to be properly prepared for with plenty of potent potables. What is a brave adventurer to do? It's dangerous to go thirsty alone, so why not pick up a keg or ten of your favorite brew and keep you and your entire merry band hydrated.

Kegistentialism will be showing up at the Premium Summer Festival this year, and will be stocked with all its favorite beverages. But wait there is more! Hearing of the number of home brewers out there in need of containers to store their creations, several variants of empty kegs will be available for just that need.

Hum de dum dum...

You indicate a dented pale blue tea tin sheltering a tiny modwir tree as a possible option.

You see the perpendicular shape of a miniature modwir tree. An air of stillness surrounds this tiny tree. The grey scales in the bark and deep vertical grooves of white sap seeping into a thick bole give the tree an appearance of age. The branches whorl around the thick trunk and arch upward into a canopy of fine fuzzy needles. Long green pinecones hang in the pale foliage. Heavy green moss covers the base of the tree and overgrows the edges of the pottery dish.

Carefully you turn your green tea tin, wiping away small flecks of dust and reorienting the position for best viewing.

You reach out and brush the sap streaked trunk of your miniature modwir tree with a gentle finger. There is a quiet strength in the rough bark and perfect straightness of the tiny tree.

You blow gently on your green tea tin and the foliage of delicate needles ruffles slightly, the perpendicular pinecones swing in the breeze. A slight scent of pine caresses your nostrils.

And in Mitsoku's Niche, your one stop shop for faaaaabulous perfumes, we have 8 NEW perfumes, and 12 RETURNING perfumes.

The scents returning are:

  • To Dream
  • Moonless Night
  • Flaming Violet
  • Blackest Magic
  • Inertia
  • Peach Glimaerstone
  • Sweet Indulgence
  • Fireflies in the Dark
  • Twilight Repose

The shop Dreamfire Illusions will be making a continued appearance at the premium festival this year. It may be a different venue, but Elusionari will be in attendance again this year to provide services and sell shop wares.

All of the bracelet designs have been refreshed (some with non-default settings), new festival-themed panels are available on the nook's circular table, a new modifier chit has been added to the alcove, and bracelet unlocks in the alcove have been overhauled (as detailed below).

Adding panel attachments is now handled by a panel attachment sheet; it costs 50k, will add 1 panel attachment per sheet, and can add up to a maximum of 25 attachments.

Unlocking each bracelet tier remains an individual unlock certificate, with the newly added Tier 4 and Tier 5 unlocks being available off the shelf. They will be sold as follows:

Tier 1 to Tier 2 - a pale panel bracelet unlock certificate
Tier 2 to Tier 3 - a light panel bracelet unlock parchment
Tier 3 to Tier 4 - a bright panel bracelet unlock folio
Tier 5 to Tier 5 - a vivid panel bracelet unlock voucher

The shop's stock display room with hundreds of images is still available and the backroom for raffles/services remains as well.

Elusionari invites current and future fans of Dreamfire Illusions to her shop!

50k. I listed the returning perfumes the other day in this channel, but the new ones are:

Ravening Deadwood (smells like dead gross stuff) Purpleheart (smells like my interpretation of what something called purpleheart should smell like - cherries, plums, rose, pink peppercorns, and sweetwood) Parsnips! (smells like cabbage...just kidding!...smells like parsnips) Rainswept Fields (smells like rain and dirt and stuff) Old Bayou (smells like moss, oak, and salty-ish water) Saw and Timber (smells like shop class, but NOT Axe body spray) Sacred Grove (smells mysterious, you have to wait because I think this is sort of my favorite) Evenfall (smells like jacaranda, orris root, agarwood, and amaryllis belladonna)

I suspect the gross one will sell best (because y'all're weirdos), but that Sacred Grove and Evenfall will be close behind.
