The newborn Princess opened her storm blue eyes with a small yet mighty yawn as her little fists balled ever so slightly in a stretch from just waking from a nap within her bassinet. Her eyes adjusted to the world she found herself in; the wonderful sun her birth had brought forth.

She watched the beams of the reddish light twinkle on the mobile above her. The great horse of her family in a gallant gallup. A glimmering golden crown of her nation and status. The shining sunflower of the courts she would grow up in. As well as two charms that represented her parents. A frog for her mother, and a chicken for her father. For they would always be there for her.
 

A healthy cry escaped the babe's lungs for she wished to be held, however, could not communicate such for she didn’t know how to yet.

A maid who had been tasked with watching over the sleeping Countess of Rosario went over to her, gently shushing the girl as she picked her up so she might stop.

High within the Vortice Karsts. Lenora was being pitched an idea. She took it no more as coincidence as her eyes adjusted to the red hued sunlight that now shone throughout the lands.
 

Within the Kingdom of Balian, Ornella had been reading a book by candle light in her room. Eventually she finished reading, pushing her door open only to be met with sunlight. The beams making her snow-white hair look pink "It's back?" she asked aloud. The air around her still, though she could hear the restless waves from her abode. "It's back!" she exclaimed in joy for she no longer had to carry a light source.
 

Rosethorn housed a girl of the age of nine who had been playing with wooden blacks under her Mother's care "Haulen. Look!" Evangeline held a red-orange circle in front of a black one. Moments later the eclipse took place, almost as if the world needed time to bend to her will. Clearly the girl made it happen!
 

In the lands of Hyspia, a Princess was born. Her entrance was graced by the sun and the end of the eclipse. The new-born baby having been swaddled in lavish Hyspian silks as she slept in her mother's arms. Celebration sounded outside, for the Sun was born this day.

Lenora was busy documenting and organizing materials and weaponry. What they might have been lacking, she looked into vendors for them. She filed all her paper work away within her office and locked up the cabinets "In all my years, I've not once killed a fellow descendant.. That ends soon" she spoke to the walls around her. A bittersweet taste on her tongue. How old was she now..? 256?

She eventually made her way from the city hall into the heart of the Vortician Karsts, fixing her shirt sleeves from her captain coat ones so the sleeve would puff out. The clothing fluttered behind her "We stand United as one" she spoke aloud to anyone that might here

Based Heir Post! Viva Hypia!

Adventure is out there!
 

Thank you in advance

Much like the escapades we’ve had within the past few years. Those who live in The Unified Domain of Vortice extend an invitation to the residents of Aevos to join us on a
spelunking expedition into the Caverns below the towering karsts of Talon’s Roost!

We will be going diving through an underwater tunnel, so be sure to bring water-breathing potions to help your fellow explorers out as we can only supply so many We will provide medical kits, adventuring packs, and various other necessities. That is; while supplies last for we can’t predict the outcome of those that wish to join us.
There is no guarantee that there will be enough for everyone.
 

A depiction of the tunnel’s entrance has been included.

We shall be gathering in three months time

Warning: There is a chance that you may perish during this expedition. Vortice does not hold responsibility for any of your actions leading to your demise or trauma. You have been warned

Ornella puffed with anger at the missive "Of course Haense would stoop so low as to steal someone's pet!" the young woman felt a bubble of hate within for the Haensti. "It shouldn't matter who the animal belonged to. The rabbit in question should be with the person that cares about it!"

After thinking on it a bit, she thought it best to step back into the vial filth she thought the lands of Hanseti-Ruska in hopes of finding more out about the poor thing. Closer for the pet's parent must be had. She'd want someone to do the same for her.
 

High up within the Vortician Karsts; a mali'ker woman sat in the plaza near the Frog fountain. A breeze blew into the city from the gates while she drank some coffee from the Talon's Roost Cafe. Her eyes danced along the words on the letter she read, sorrow felt in her heart "Surely those of Haense see the wrong in this? At least allow the man to know if rabbit is okay.. or at least alive" she shook her head as she placed the parchment down "Most the good ones in Haense are dead. I couldn't even call in a favor if I wanted to.."

how come we're adding a bunch of colors instead of implementing custom colors w/ hex codes? 

That is something they said they are working on in the last update post, baby steps!

Add pastel orange!!!

Did you say Pastels?

Pastel Orange #FFAE7C

Adore the colors we now have! Thank you for the hard work you put into them. I love that Dark Blue is readable now, however, it's shame we "lost" the color people loved to hate and hate to love 😅

I'd love to see a true orange color in the upcoming line up. We have 4/5 blues, 1 teal, 3 greens, 2.5 Purples, 1.5 Pinks (Light Purple could be either or).

In regards to Gold, and Pastel Gold my brain reads them as a yellows when I see them on there own. Compared to other colors, they are very much in the orange family. I'm still calling them yellows though


Here are my orange suggestions

If none of the oranges make it in, my vote is for either Violet or Champagne Pink! I think all the colors are amazing though and am looking forward to all of them.

Thank you tech team for all the hard work that you put into the server

Verónica looked on from the seven skies at the insult made to her sister and the Hyspian people "The Sapphire, would have been fine. Sofia The Beautiful would have been great. Sofia was SOUGHT after by countless people for her looks, she was and is gorgeous both inside and out. She looked 20 years old for her whole life due to how well she took care of herself. Surely the 'Forever Youthful' would also work."

"As for Amaya, she was the people's Queen! Not the Pure, unless they mean of heart! Do these Hanseti know nothing of the last few generations?" The dead Hyspia Princess Scoffed to herself

Treaty of Shores

As agreed upon on the 10th of The First Seed, year 180 of the Second Age

Between the Unified Domain of Vortice and the Kingdom of Balian

Her Majesty, Lenora Jusmia, The 10th Sovereign of the Depths, Monarch of the Unified Domain of Vortice

In regards to Hex codes!!! I have some ideas

Please know this is not all the custom colors I have mind. I can think of at least a dozen or so more

I'd like to see the pastel color previews shown be available for all players. Maybe Coal VIPs could have a larger range of chat colors, say three extra? While Iron VIPs could have the custom chat colors? I understand adding things to the higher VIP tiers is important, however, asking your arrange player to spend close to $300 USD for custom hex codes feels absurd. I know that it is just an example though it still feels like a really steep price tag. Having played the server for five and a half years, I notice people slowly make their way up the VIP tiers in time, starting with Coal VIP because they want the ability to use bold and italics in their emotes. Keep the chat settings low VIP ranks, please?

Would love to see more skin slots and NPCs. What is the cool down for? Name changing, skin swapping, persona swapping? All of the above?

I don't really think there is a need for the halt feature to come back? Maybe having it as a ping would be better? So it's more versatile.

Ornella picked up her quill, dipping it into the ink-well on her desk. "It's not like I'm old enough for the one Balian is hosting. It'll be nice to make some more friends"

Once the sign up sheet was attached to a bird, she made her way to her closet- throwing open the doors "Now, what to wear?" within the wooden walls hung mostly pink. Surely something new was needed!

Can't believe this. I watched him grow up

What the heck
