Sapience -

Sing a song to honour the Ancients Ones. Move your feet to a dance for
the Wise. Draw a breath in full, let it expand your lungs and your body
and your mind with the Spirits around you. Hear them whisper in the
winds; hear them murmur in the earth's rumbles; see them crackle in
bewitching fires and watch their haunting melodies in the waters. Colour
is music, and sound is beautiful scenery - drink it all in and let the
Spirits bring you home.

The Spirit Walkers invite you to join us in joyous celebration of the
Spirits in the year 438 AF, from Sarapin to Mayan, with our 150th
anniversary and the Festival of the Spirits. The following events will
be opened to the world as a whole:

-LOTTERY - We will host a lottery with several prizes, from credits to
supplies to land. Trust in the mischievous, fickle spirits of Luck for
boon or bane in LOTTERY 5!
-PACK SALES - In the Shaman's Rattle (East, Southeast, North from
Crossroads), packs will be placed on sale all year. Prizes will range
from credits to supplies to gift certificates, so try your luck!
-TOURNAMENT - Warriors, worship the primal spirits in a competition of
strategy and blood. Your sweat and work will be rewarded!
-ESSENCE HARVEST - And hunters, engage in celebration of the primal
spirits of bloodlust, and engage in a prayer beforehand. Your efforts
here will not be wasted in this competition, either.
-SCAVENGER HUNT - Assemble in teams of three to hunt the world for its
spiritualists and spirits, and find your group rewarded by the
benevolent spirits of wealth.
-SURPRISE EVENTS - There will be events for you to discover throughout
the year! Keep your eyes open for news and various things about the
world, your ears open to shouting, and your mind open to other various
channels of communication.

If you have any questions regarding the upcoming Festival, please let me
know.


Spirits guide you all,
