To coincide with The Reckoning that is happening in-game, we've decided to do something different with our promotion throughout June! For every 100 credits you purchase in a single transaction, you'll receive a talisman piece from the "CONCLAVE" talisman set. Additionally, for every 500 credits, you'll also receive an additional piece. So if you purchase 1000 credits in a single transaction, you'll receive 12 pieces!
There are a few new artefacts in this set, and all of them will be uniquely customised to which side of the Reckoning you/your city stands.
To give an example, one of the talismans is a new version of the Robes of the Magi, bestowing a 1/3rd reduction in willpower usage as well as mana usage. If you/your city are supporting Maklak, when you complete the talisman, you'll receive Robes of the Ice Mage, which will not be available after this promotion. If you're supporting Yudhishthira, you'll receive Robes of the Fire Mage.
Other artefacts in this set include:
* Top Hat
    Maklak:       A debonair white top hat
    Yudhishthira: A decadent black top hat
* An hourglass that functions as a timer, TURN <HOURGLASS> <x> MINUTES, and a countdown will commence.
    Maklak:       A wintry hourglass
    Yudhishthira: A scorched hourglass
* Brooch of the Tempest
    Maklak:       A glacial sapphire brooch
    Yudhishthira: A lava cameo brooch
* An elemental sprite minipet.
    Maklak:       A dainty ice sprite
    Yudhishthira: A roiling fire sprite
* Prospero's Lesser Vault
    Maklak:       An ice-bound lesser vault
    Yudhishthira: A miniature magma vault
* Ring of Flying
    Maklak:       A glittering cyclonic ring
    Yudhishthira: A dragonscale ring
* Armband of Celerity
    Maklak:       A mammoth tusk armband
    Yudhishthira: A clasped claw armband
* Buckawn's Amulet
    Maklak:       An amulet of misty ice
    Yudhishthira: An amulet of hardened magma
* Grimoire of Adaptation
    Maklak:       The Grimoire of Golems
    Yudhishthira: The Red Dragon's Record
* Stygian Pendant
    Maklak:       The Assembler's Pendant
    Yudhishthira: A Harpy's Eye Pendant
* Robes of the Grand Magi (as detailed above)
    Maklak:       Robes of the Ice Mage
    Yudhishthira: Robes of the Fire Mage
* Atavian wings
    Maklak:       Wings shorn from sea ice
    Yudhishthira: Incendiary wings of liquid magma
We've also added a new system to trade-in any talisman pieces in this set, so if you have any incomplete pieces, you can trade them in for credits! Say you have a single talisman piece for the Atavian wings set at the end of the promotion, you'll be able to trade that in for half of that piece's relative value! So in this case, there's 4 pieces of the Atavian wings (a 2000cr artefact), so each piece is worth 500cr. You'll be able to TALISMAN REDEEM <piece>, and receive 250cr!
