Hollow Eve Approaches!

(Sent 2022-10-28)

The Ocean Is Stirring Once Again...

Four long years after its fierce battle with the Essence of the Depths, the leviathan known as Zemmunhu has finally recovered enough to once again fly! More than that, Zemmunhu has convinced its brethren it is sufficiently healed to aid the Merelew and allow mainlanders a vantage in the sky from which to watch the festival!

Where only moments before there had been an endless expanse of blue on blue, an unbroken horizon where sea and sky touched without land or life of any kind to disrupt the view, now bubbling and frothing as if the seas themselves were expelling a breath held within their hidden depths for too long.

Domed towers were the first to pierce the churning water, the sun's reflection glaring from mirror-like glass panes lining their parapets as they rose slowly above the seas. Decorative coral clusters of countless colors cling to the rising sandy structures. Revealed were gardens of glowing fan worms and tube worms, spiraling sea cabbages, so much life unknown and indescribable by we who walk the lands of Elanthia. It has been placed, grown, and shaped perfectly over hundreds of years -- all rising, climbing, reaching higher and higher into the sky as cerulean waterfalls cascade from balconies and buildings of all shapes and sizes. A city, a palace, risen and revealed, sitting atop winding roads dotted with smaller but no less vibrant structures and landscapes.

Andreshlew. Living home of the Merelew. It has been four years since its sandy beaches last welcomed the unwebbed feet of outsiders. As the Merelew deepen their bonds of friendship with the mainlanders, so too do the leviathans. You have been invited to feast and to ally yourself with the leviathans to explore the depths! You are summoned, requested to meet with their representatives.

Hollow Eve opens on Tuesday, November 1st!
The Sleeping Dragon Corn Maze opens on Friday, November 4th!
