Announcements and Feedback

Weather and Setting Updates for Late September - Early October:
🦊 By popular request, the event has been extended for an additional seven days, and will now run until October 20th!

🦊 The weather in Amrita is all that really matters at the moment, huh? And it's exactly what it says on the tin: kinda nuts. Vacillations between unpredictable storms, sudden sunshine, sunshowers, mood weather and thundersnow—if you've seen the weather pattern in Folkmore ever, it's game for making an appearance today.

🦊 Everything in this time period is on the event post section linked above; if you need environmental updates for the next two-ish weeks, just give that another skim or ask a question in the comments below. ♥

OOC Updates & Reminders:
🦊 Modifications to mods: Epi has stepped back from modding. We hope to keep her around as a player forever, and perhaps we'll see her again as a mod sometime.

🦊 More mod mods: Dex, Lark, & Meowzy have joined the writing team with Kit and Sil to bring wonderful words for you to enjoy. We welcome them to this new modling team!

🦊 A request to help us out & check player contact to be sure any characters from the last app cycle aren't missing before apps open on the next one! We don't think anything's awry, but mods are people and just like to be sure we haven't missed someone.

🦊 The current test drive is still running until 21 October (to match the event extension), and there's also September TFLN for even more voicetesting spaces.

🦊 Some upcoming improvements: enchantments on the Spoons page, a searchable database for the FAQ that includes Discord questions, and new characters to the game because apps open in two days. Reserves and invites are currently open.

Since the event is being extended, is the plan still for Lore summons to sorta vaguely return on October 7th, or are you guys planning on adjusting that as well? 🤔

[folkie]

Intentional Lore summons will be back the 20th! The event-based summoning still started the 7th.

Hi! For the sake of future plotting post-event, is Folkmore expected to return to normal after October 20th? Will there need to be clean up efforts or anything or will things just magically be back to how they were before the event?

[folkie]

The state of Folkmore will be revealed in the TDM. Not everything will be the same.

[doesntsing]

Thank you!

In relation to this, if Wednesday were to try to look to the future to see if this was ever going to end and they were going to be able to return to Folkmore proper (meaning Folkmore and each of it's areas before the event), would she see anything? If so what might she see?

Like people leaving the Academy somehow to go back to homes?

Glimpses of residual damage?

or flashes of what did happen in each different areas?

Basically anything that might show what happened in other areas. Plus that this will end eventually.

No worries if the answer is nothing, it just came up while talking/plotting to do something. If the answer is nothing, would it be just that her visions are a blank void while they're trapped or that she can't even get any to come at all? Thank you.

[folkie]

It's lorasses. All she can see is lorasses.

[woenesday]

So, if she had a vision, which is what I was asking about, it would simply be that all of Folkmore is covered in lorasses? Or just lorasses in general and that's it?

Sorry for asking.

[folkie]

Just lorasses. All there is to see is lorasses. If there's land, it's not visible.
