The Festival is over, over on a bittersweet note.
It was known that it would be a difficult day, undeniably, for at some point the Vulpera had to face that some actors, and some creatures, refused to see them do anything but toil in hunger and desperation.
There would be no longer a quick or a clever, just a rushed and a desperate.
A beast, a challenger, an adversary appeared to impose such a falsehood, in wicked hopes they would just run away.
And it clearly did not happen, no matter how āwrittenā it was.
With the Call of the Wailing Bone opening the night and the way into Atulāaman, and the voice of their ancestors guiding and emboldening them, they faced the challenges laid upon them without looking back a single moment, as they delved deeper and deeper into those rotten ruins.
Not even when surrounded by fire and debris did they hightail it. Even as the evil creature, a Ranishu of a cautionary tale made real appeared in front of them seeking to overcome and overwhelm, the Vulpera heeded the wisdom of the story, and as it screeched and mutated into the most horrid of beasts, their Wits finally overcame the Hunger that sought to devour them within and without.
Our evil antagonist had nothing to do against the Vulpera, and after an infantile and pathetic fit of rage did he swear that he would return, especially now that in Volādun blow winds of valiant change and a future together.
Stand ready, Vulpera, and peoples of Volādun.
The next time may not be during a sweet Festival.
The New Chronicles of Volādun are to be Written, and only the quickest and cleverest writers will get to gain that right
Find yourselves, or Find yourselves Lacking, as you face the future to conquer!
Iāll see if I can reach out to various assistants in order to give some closure, details AND trinkets as I said in the first day. I was quite OVERWHELMED by the immense amount of people around and I want to take my time giving something cool and useful beyond a mere lilāā¦memento, a nice addition to your bag of tricksā¦
However, I do need to sit for a few days while the evil turtle god seethes and ragesā¦
Make sure to stay safe out there, and Follow the Dunes.
Until the next time!
