After two years of removing debris, rebuilding, and renovating, Mist Harbor is proud to announce the re-opening of the Eastern Harbor and will be celebrating this momentous occasion with a full-blown Street Festival! Fun for all ages, races, and creeds, the street festival highlights the fun, carefree life of the island.

Scheduled to take place over a two-week period, from the 15th of Phoenatos through the 30th [August 15th to 30th], the festival is both a free event for those able to access Isle of Four Winds [Premium subscribers] and an opportunity to discover new things on the island.

During the street faire, merchants will be bringing forth new and old merchandise for everyone to discover, rediscover, or simply enjoy as they mingle with the crowds. Ample raffles will provide new opportunities for visiting guests to obtain some fun, exciting items and games will be offered throughout the two weeks for everyone to enjoy!

The chairman of the festival, Lady Ilsola, will roam the streets and be available for conversations during the festival.

The Twinned Gladius and Falchion
Donated by a wealthy elven family, the Twinned Gladius and Falchion are held in a polished case of kakore. Bards working for the Merchant Council of Mist Harbor have stated that the pieces speak of a bond between an elf and a halfling during the time of the Great Undead Wars.
a kakore-hilted etched mithril gladius:Fashioned of mithril, the gladius has a short, wide blade that is encased by a hilt of polished kakore at one end. Etched into the golden wood is the image of a knotwork stallion, its body depicted in abstract and its head topped in a flowing mane of interlocking infinite knots. Damascened images, echoing the hilt's design, surge across the blade as if erupting from the simple crossguard, only to thin near the tip. A counterweight of black thunderhead opal is trapped in an alum cage at the hilt's base. A faint aura of holy light radiates from the gladius.
a polished kakore case: Fashioned of polished, glossy kakore, the case is lined with ebon velvet and has hinges of polished gold. Knotwork designs decorate the lid of the piece and create the image of beautiful stallions erupting from each of the four corners. A simple hasp has been refitted to house a small lock on the side opposite the hinges.
a kakore-hilted etched mithril falchion: Fashioned of mithril, the falchion has a long, narrow blade that is encased by a hilt of polished kakore at one end. Etched into the golden wood is the image of a knotwork stallion, its body depicted in abstract and its head topped in a flowing mane of interlocking infinite knots. Damascened images, echoing the design of the hilt, surge across the blade as if erupting from the simple crossguard, only to thin near the tip.

Coco Welter'jell

Gelid Elkring

This box sold for 20 million.

You look closely at Giantphang, examining a coiled braided blonde bracelet. Wreathed in the faint scent of hibiscus, the bracelet is fashioned of a coil of golden blonde hair. Cornflower blue ribbons are woven throughout the herringbone braid and bind each of the ends to prevent the hair from escaping, while also binding it into a simple circle that allows the piece to be worn.

You look closely at Giantphang, examining a faded blood-stained tunic. Crafted of lightweight cotton, the tunic is short-sleeved with a wide, open neckline. Brass eyelets, three on each side, are strung with rawhide strips, which are capped with tiny metal cylinders. A large dark blood stain mars the front of the garment, while the rest of the piece's color is a faded blue.

Giantphang removes a narrow oiled leather sheath embossed with shells from in his locker box.

Giantphang says, "Inside sheath is dagger."
Giantphang removes a chipped rolaren dagger with a vine-wrapped hilt from in his oiled leather sheath.

You look closely at Giantphang, examining a silver filigree signet ring. Fashioned of silver, the ring is a delicate piece of interwoven filigree vines that wrap around a smooth, flat central plate. Etched into the solid metal piece is the image of a hummingbird perched upon a hibiscus blossom and surrounded by several wispy whorls. Delicate script has been incised into the back of the piece, though it has been scratched and marred by a sharp instrument, making it impossible to read.

Giantphang removes a torn white diary page from in his locker box.
"She'll be alone tonight and maybe I can convince her to give me the map. I don't know, the fever clearly has me, but I just need to find the treasure. Why must she taunt me with hints of it?! I have been good to her, done all she's asked, but she holds the map over me like a lord holding a prized title. Tonight, I will approach her and plead my case. Surely she will understand!"

Florae Trigsol

This box sold for 20 million.

Caravel Leifs

This box sold for 18 million.

Lucos removes a silver-inlaid smooth ebonwood case with bronze toggles from in his locker box.

Lucos unlatches the toggle on his smooth ebonwood case and you hear a strange whirring sound. Lucos removes his hands from the toggle and within seconds, a tiny opening appears at the top of the case. The tiny doors draw away from each other and bend at the hinges before sliding into a small compartment at the bottom. As the whirring stops, the case is transformed into a serving platter.

Lucos depresses a button hidden in the design of the smooth ebonwood platter's handle. A small whirring sound heralds tiny doors extending from the bottom of the platter, which extend upward until they completely obscure the contents of the platter and transform the piece into a case.

Lucos removes a lacquered ebonwood knife inlaid with silver thistles from the stack on his smooth ebonwood platter.

You look closely at Lucos, examining a petrified ebonwood plate. Smoothed from the passage of time, the plate is fashioned of a thick disk of petrified ebonwood. Thin bands of grey form the age lines of the original tree that the piece belonged to before turning to a crystalline structure. Though largely black, the small piece exudes a brightness to it that is enhanced by its near transparency.

Lucos removes a carved zebra onyx bowl from the stack on his smooth ebonwood platter.

Lucos removes a blackened silver goblet supported by a twisted stem from the stack on his smooth ebonwood platter.

Tram Boudoirs

Ardwen removes a folded parchment pamphlet from in his locker box.
Ardwen shows you a folded parchment pamphlet, which he is holding in his left hand. A delicate hand has scribed this tri-fold pamphlet in bold and intricate lettering. Colorfully stamped upon the front is the image of a handsome, smiling dwarf holding a mithril stein brimming with golden ale, set against the bold backdrop of the glorious DragonSpine mountains at sunrise.

~*@*~ Zul Logoth, Land of Ale and Ore ~*@*~

Ardwen removes a deep blue eostone from in his locker box.
Ardwen says, "Buncha eostones."

Ardwen removes a single brown leather boot from in his locker box.
You look closely at Ardwen, examining a single brown leather boot. Crafted from sturdy brown leather, the boot has seen much wear and tear. Scratches and other nicks mar the dull steel toe, and its laces are frayed. A stamp adorns the sole. Its other half is nowhere to be found.

Ardwen removes a heavy book-shaped rock from in his locker box.
You look closely at Ardwen, examining a heavy book-shaped rock. Roughly carved from a big honking piece of rock, this book-shaped rock doesn't seem to serve any purpose. Something has been chiseled into the back.
Ardwen whispers, "Sometimes you got to hit the books, sometimes, the books got to hit you. - Brought to you by the Zul Logoth Tourism Board, bringing quality head-rocking action since the last time you could remember."

Beldin just opened a rose-edged white parchment envelope.

Karibeth removes a dirt-smeared waxy vellum parchment from in her white parchment envelope.
You look closely at Karibeth, examining a dirt-smeared waxy vellum parchment. Perserved in a thin skein of wax, the parchment is a brilliant white decorated with golden whorls and dark roses. Tiny wrinkles and smears of dirt upon the waxy surface are testament to the piece's repeated handling and antiquity.

Karibeth says, "My dearest love,"
Karibeth says, "Everytime that you leave me for your jungle adventures, my heart breaks at our parting and I long for the moment of your return. Though I know that I am only one of the loves in your life, the wilds being the second, I would have you no other way. As we part, your eyes are upon me, and as you return, they are upon her."
Karibeth says, "Forgive me, for even though my heart breaks at our parting, it is the moment I cherish the most."
Karibeth says, "And it's signed.. Yours Truly, Filomea."

Beldin removes a polished felwood ring box from in his locker box.
You look closely at Beldin, examining a polished felwood ring box. Lined in viridian crushed velvet, the felwood box is polished to a lustrous sheen and preserved with a clear lacquer. Faenor vines are inlaid into the sides of the piece and rise towards the lid to create a fanciful framework for a tender painting. A lone woman stands upon a balcony gazing down at the jungle's edge where several explores begin to disappear into the vegetation. Glancing over his shoulder, a man smiles up at the woman, but his body is turned to the enveloping darkness of the waiting wild

Beldin removes an embroidered viridian handkerchief from in his locker box.

Karibeth unties the bindings and folds back the edges of her viridian handkerchief to reveal a delicate filigree faenor key positioned perfectly in its center.

You hear a click as Beldin unlocks a polished felwood ring box.

Beldin says, "Wedding rings I think."
