[Night Elf] Remembrance Ceremony, 11th October

Considering all the hardships the night elves have endured, it’s probable that everyone has suffered a personal loss. Moon Priestess Hidani invites people to hang handmade memorial ornaments on a wisteria tree in Bel’ameth, honoring those they’ve lost, whether in the distant past or more recently. There’s time to offer some words in memory of the departed.

Date: Saturday 11th October, 2025
Time: 20:00 Server Time
Location: Bel’ameth, near the gazebo
Faction: Alliance

Event details:

This is an Alliance-only event aimed at night elf characters, first hosted as part of the New Home, New Hope event series and there was interest in seeing the ceremony return this year. After a week, the ornaments will be moved to a nearby grove to join the previous year’s memorabilia. Some characters may refer to this area as the ‘Grove of Remembrance’.

OOC details:

  • To ensure smooth turn-taking, please prepare any speeches for other characters or NPCs beforehand. Since this year’s event isn’t divided into two parts, the speeches can be a little longer than the previous time. Depending on the attendee numbers, we might have two queues so that everyone can have a turn at the tree.
  • It’d be wonderful if players could summon a Wisp companion as the memorial event proceeds. These summoned wisps could symbolize a spirit known to the attendee, or they could be a curious, unknown presence drawn from Amirdrassil’s branches. Regardless of the time of their passing, the event’s purpose is to commemorate the character’s loved ones who are gone.
  • If you could help placing a Leylight Brazier (toy) in a crescent formation around the tree, as if they were kaldorei braziers, that’d be appreciated! Hidani will have some to trade if you don’t have one.
  • There may be sharding still active on Amirdrassil, so please whisper Hidani for a raid group invite.

A couple of weeks to go! Last year, it was interesting to see whom the attendees honored, and I think it’s a nice way to allude to a background story, NPC relationships, or nods at player characters that have passed away. If you’re planning to do a brief speech for this, please prepare it in advance to maintain a good pace.

The event happens this Saturday!

A reminder that sharding is likely still be in place, so please whisper Hidani for a raid group invite if you see nobody at the event location. Pulling other players into the party leader’s shard only works if you’re already in the same zone, so please check that too before asking for an invite, cheers!

If need be, I’ll multibox to have two raids groups simultaneously.

A shame I’m not home to join this event! Eitherway I hope everyone has fun! Bel’ameth is a beautiful place to hold RP events!
