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

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:
- Vanishing Points
- Nail Polish
- Bubbles (The jar/bottle description, wand shape, and color are customizable by any willing and able merchant.)
- Cravats
- Cobbling Mats

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
- Snow-Covered Forest
- Shadow Amethyst
- Oakmoss

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.

The following is a teaser for one of many items for sale at Rakish Accoutrement:
