Aurora never fails to be awesome.....much for the Lightbringer!

You give a trillingly melodic laugh.

You open a trinket box of platinum and ivory.
Slender fronds of platinum crafted so fine they appear as if strands of hair float on a sea of shimmering jewels, the precious metal twisted and sculpted into a stunning circlet. Designed to adorn the fairest of heads, the wreath radiates with the luminous glow of Light, the incandescent energy reflected against a magnificent backdrop of blush-coloured rubies and smooth ivory shards. The gleaming forms of a golden eagle and ivory dragon drape across the very back of the piece, signifying one who is the Grace of the Lightbringer. It has 500 months of usefulness left. It weighs 0 ounce(s). This piece of clothing is for looks and style (but not for staying warm).
To the Celani that was probably given the job : I am loving the new help files. The headers look very neat and the colours a kind to the eye. Very well designed. Well done, now excuse me as I am slowly lead through each and every help file on the system.
Despite a lot of crap getting thrown my way in "real" life, I'm seriously appreciating Achaea and Achaeans right now, including but not limited to @Mathonwy, @Verrucht, @Melodie, and @Oceana. Even the brief comments are making my days, thanks. Glad I decided to come back.
"Gilgamesh, where are you hurrying to? You will never find that [everlasting] life for which you are looking. When the gods created man they allotted to him death, but life they retained in their own keeping. As for you, Gilgamesh, fill your belly with good things; day and night, night and day, dance and be merry, feast and rejoice. Let your clothes be fresh, bathe yourself in water, cherish the little child that holds your hand, and make your wife happy in your embrace; for this too is the lot of man."
Rave to @mathonwy for being willing to enact something rather unpleasant before all of Mhaldor in order to stay true to character and tasks. You made being a mentor really fun for me tonight!
Also big thanks to the people in Mhaldor who got involved and drove the point of the whole penance home. I sure love playing with the lot of you.
I don't want to know what dark rituals were performed to make weather changes possible... but it's awesome.

12.3.1 Ashtan, Seat of Chaos [CITY LEADERS] Overseer: Jy'Barrak Dameron The Archon Ascendant: Dunn Patron: Vastar Archons: Jhui, Triak, Jonesey, Dunn, and Ryldagh Ambassador: Ariettie Minister of War: Jhui Minister of Security: Seragorn Treasurer: Kald Steward: Triak Minister of Trade: Josoul Chancellor: Kyrra Minister of Cultural Affairs: Khaibit Minister of Development: Sybilla Minister of Maritime Affairs: Ryldagh
[DENIZENS THAT CAN MAKE YOU A CITIZEN] Epicurus - ASK EPICURUS JOIN ASHTAN
[CURRENTLY IN THE REALM]
Able to induct new citizens: Sybilla
Ashtan, Seat of Chaos, lies on the northwest shore of the inhabited part of the continent of Sapience. Due to its seaport on the Sapphire Sea and its proximity to the fertile Sangre Plains, Ashtan has been a dominant power on the continent since the days of legend.
Borne upon an abominable alliance of ruthlessly enduring vendetta, military might, and the terrible machinations of Imperator Glaaki and his Chaos Court, rises Ashtan, the Seat of Chaos. Their profane aims are wrought with havoc and destruction, utter ruin brought to bear against the orderly social and theological structures that would dare oppose the Bastion and her hermetic benefactors.
Through irreverent and wanton devastation shall this favoured state wade; ambitious aspirants to power and glory, as they pave the way with rubble for the dominion of Chaos.
*** NOTE WELL -- ESPECIALLY IF CONSIDERING JOINING A CITY -- NOTE WELL *** Cities are free to restrict their citizens in many ways. Citizens may be required to perform city services, serve other citizens in various manners, or join only certain Houses. Be absolutely certain that you discuss these things with leaders of your intended city before you make a commitment to citizenship! Also, refer to HOUSE LIST <cityname> to see which houses reside within that city.
I hereby nickname Ashtan "the Raidoraunt". If raiding for the sake of killing shit indiscriminately is like a 6 star meal for you, and you have to additionally unload a minigun of bullets at anything that resembles being alive -- then Ashtan is the right Restaurant... err... Raidoraunt... err... City for you.
I'm more excited about the fact that Jy'barrak Dameron is the Overseer and that they have something called an Archon Ascendant now. Pretty excited to see what else is in store!
"Mummy, I'm hungry, but there's no one to eat! :C"

They also served the whole city with "special" Kool-Aid, I heard.

That did nothing but give some random visions, that none of us could see because we were killing/dying. At least I didn't notice anything else.

Penwize has cowardly forfeited the challenge to mortal combat issued by Atalkez.

This entire Ashtani renaissance event has been amazingly well-written and interesting. I don't usually enjoy the bigger events where so many people play a part, but this has been utterly fantastic. Thank you to all of the Garden members who've played a part, even with all the "noooooo, not Chaos!" naysayers that are floating around. It's been wonderful!
@Aquil, @Kalexei, @Ellodin, @Artemis - thanks for not harassing me about moving. I'm sorry for leaving, but I wasn't having any fun with the way things were progressing for Ela. Thank you for making the transition more enjoyable!
@Aquil - hearts and stuff for being amazeballs. (Yes. You were mentioned twice.)
@Sybilla might be a witch for her way with words... I'm so in love with the figurehead that she wrote (and with the change to the dropped by customisations)!
an ashen volery figurehead
An ashen figurehead flows along the bowsprit, carven birds poised as if to take flight.
Carved into the face of the trunk of an ash tree, a whirl of movement and texture weaves into a pattern of wind-buffeted feathers. As the figurehead rises from its perch on the prow, avian shapes begin to take form along its front, straining against their wooden confinement and longing to take flight. Myriads of bead-lucid eyes, beaks, and taut wings compete for attention in this intricate sculpture. Only a lucky few soar free, balancing precociously wingtip-to-talon against their neighbours. Here a flock of long-tailed swallows rises in high-relief from the ashen block, there a gliding albatross, chasing the lightning feather of an eagle. The exaltation of various birds flurries in striking realism, a veritable volery if beheld by afar, crowned by a manifest specimen of a storm petrel.
Its pretty funny that my number one goal is to kill the one person that cares the least about death. Anything that happens after he dies, I personally don't care. I truly feel like I have achieved something if we can kill him. Jhui died as well as 4 Targossians? Good fight!
Its nothing personal against him, dude is just a beast.

For bringing some actual meaningful conflict to Hashan.
He never explained what the reason was, but who cares? We can hash that out IC.
^The apparent temperature is at a steady ((\d+) F)\.$
local temp = math.floor((tonumber(matches[3]) - 32) * (5/9))

If you're not not sure what to do with the above, I could post instructions I guess...
