final event.
new beginnings & fond farewells
As the end of the year rapidly approaches, winter’s unrelenting chill miraculously gives way to warmer weather and sunnier skies. Perhaps winters are simply brief and mild on Crescentview island, but the townsfolk will tell you the Goddess often blesses those bound to be wed with fair weather on their big day. With so many weddings on the horizon, that certainly lends credence to the notion that the Goddess honors the sacred unity between lovers and richly blesses them accordingly.
The end of the year also signals the approach of the next, and with it, a chance to start anew in the spring. While many events and holidays are hosted on the island, few are celebrated as broadly as New Year's Eve, so those preparing to be wed should ensure they leave time to think up some resolutions together.
Very few crops can withstand winter's unrelenting chill and consistent snowfall. This is the season to clear out your field and turn the soil in preparation for the upcoming spring.
love is in the air
Can you hear those church bells ringing? They’ll certainly be doing just that quite often during the latter half of winter as a grand total of 13 weddings will be taking place before the end of the year. Some will be hosting open weddings while others have opted to invite only their closest loved ones and friends, and who knows? Perhaps some have told no one at all and plan to elope!
The following Sacred Unities will be hosted publicly for all to attend:
Winter 16th: Aether & Vanitas xIslanders are encouraged to spend the remainder of the year celebrating with those whom they’ve become close to, perhaps even inseparably, by attending and participating in their sacred unities. As such, the Goddess has prepared a special punch card for attendees to earn special rewards through their attendance.
Winter 17th: Noe & Lucia x
Winter 18th: Tighnari & Cyno
Winter 20th: Gaku & Ellis x
Winter 21st: Yuri, Flynn & Judith x
Winter 22nd: Kaveh & Alhaitham x
Winter 24th: Diluc, Amber & Kaeya x
Winter 27th: Kaspar, Sylvando & van Zieks
Winter 28th: He Xuan & Childe
Make a top level here with your punch card. As your character attends each Sacred Unity, add a link your tag-in and a stamp to start earning rewards. We're operating on a good faith system for this final event, so there's no need to wait around for mod approval on your rewards! Just do us a favor and make sure your links aren't broken (we like to snoop, shh...)
Stamp here! Note that no resizing is needed: the image will resize automatically to fit within the stamp window.
All one needs to do to start accruing stamps is attend some Sacred Unities (including their own). Simple as that! Each Sacred Unity attended will result in one stamp being added onto their card via the Goddess' magic. Stamps can then be exchanged for any of the following items in no particular order. Check out what rewards wait in store!
A book of Interdimensional Traveler's Coupons. These neat little coupons are imbued with strong magic that will allow you to travel from world to world— provided you know someone who lives there! No longer is your choice limited to returning to one home or another after you leave the island.Please consider this final task and accompanying rewards as our heartfelt thank you for joining us here in Crescentview. It's been a joy from beginning to end! Any incomplete tasks from event 4.0 can still be submitted below for rewards until 3/31.
An ornate gold-plated King's Crown. Aside from making you look kingly (or foolish, depending on who you're asking), the King's Crown will allow you to make yourself the king during a round of king's game, thus usurping whoever was originally chosen. Let's hope you're a compassionate and reasonable ruler. This item can only be used once, so plan wisely!
The Honeymooner's Sinful Sachet. This nondescript silk bag has a lot of... salacious items hidden away inside of it. Several sets of lingerie perfectly suited for you & your lover's body types have been included along with aphrodisiacs that promise to keep you and your lover(s) ruckin' all night long. There are also sets of kinky dice, edible underwear, ropes, vibrators, and other arguably tasteless toys to keep your wedding night delightfully spicy.
A pair of Companion Fairies that you can take back home with you! Those buff fairies sure were helpful, weren't they? Or perhaps you felt a certain kinship to one of the Goddess' fashion-forward fairies. Either way, the Goddess is allowing you to take two of her loyal followers back home with you... but whether or not they'll report your whereabouts back to her is nothing they're willing to disclose.
Your very own vacation home! ...Well, kinda. While the option to return home exists to those tying the knot, this reward with bestow you with a special ring that will allow you and anyone you choose to return to Crescentview island and the farm you've built here. Isn't that nifty? With this, you won't have to worry about who will care for your animals after you've departed.
ringing in the new year
The new year is almost upon us! Though many of Crescentview's farmers are returning home and taking their partners with them, they'll have the opportunity to celebrate the coming of spring before packing up to leave.
Every Winter 30th, a grand celebration takes place on the beach where vendors from the mainland have come to set up stalls with food and games. You can snack on everything from buckwheat noodles to mochi, and if you're feeling bold, why don't you draw your fortune slip and see what your luck's looking like for the new year? There's also a wish tree set up in the center of the venue. Who knows? Maybe the Goddess will hear your prayers and bless you with a miracle. It certainly doesn't hurt to try!
king for a day
It's finally time for King's Game! We'll be hosting several rounds of King's Game on the 25th. For those who have never played, the rules are pretty simple:
1. ICly, Everyone draws a stick and is assigned a number corresponding to the number of characters playing. OOCly, numbers will be assigned via rng.We'll look forward to seeing you there for guaranteed chaos and shenanigans. We don't have a set time that we're going to begin King's Game, but we'll be hosting several rounds ourselves and will hand off the crown (hehe) to any players interested in hosting a few rounds themselves afterwards. As usual, we'll send out a message via the discord when we're set to begin.
2. The host will then choose a random number. The character holding that number is the round's king.
3. The king will assign each of the other players with a task to complete. Remember: the king's word is law!

this is just a free-for-all now ig
Hope I didn't make you wait too long! [ It is too late, long past the fall season entirely. Whoops. ] I didn't want to fight you until I knew I was at my best.
[ Sorry that he's such a gross, desolate creature with nothing but bloodthirstiness on the brain. Combat calls to him like nothing else. But he did bring company! This is your cue, He Xuan. ]
fun times with everyone
It's doubtless that your timing will serve you well.
[ And there is He Xuan, stepping right in to settle right beside the red head. As he speaks, there's a evidence of challenge in his tone. ]
But, the question is if it will do the same where she is concerned.
no subject
Hello. While I accept the spar, I'm assuming you want me to keep this.
[ People usually brought in disposable gloves or something that they don't usually wear.
She will ignore He Xuan's taunt... ]
no subject
Keep it if you want.
[ He's got no short supply back home. ]
Any stipulations? How do we decide who wins? Whoever's down for the count?
no subject
Jokes aside, he's not interested in derailing things. If not for Tartaglia, he would not even be here, but to say he has no wish to have not had a face off would be a lie. ]
'Down for the count' would be simple enough.
[ Though, he will wait to hear what the goddess says. ]
no subject
The goddess steps away from the pond and two stalks of wheat are summoned into each hand. We're dual-wielding now. ]
Very well. Come at me.
no subject
Gladly.
[ Watch his back, He Xuan. With absolutely no regard for decorum, he takes an offensive stance, and promptly leaps into the fray with the intent of slicing those wheat stalks down to nothing. ]
no subject
Staying right where he is for now while Tartaglia strikes forward like a bolt of lightning, He Xuan's already calling in on water, spilling up through the ground easily where a pond's already so closeby, already coloring black upon his control of it. Then aiming to climb up to cling to the goddess' feet and legs if she should not evade it—yet even with this much it carries a deceptively heavy weight, so his next attention is to throw her off balance or drag her to the ground, should it make contact with her in the first place.
All in all, his main intention at the moment is to make it difficult for her to retaliate against Tartaglia's onslaught with ease. ]
no subject
Meanwhile, the goddess is hovering--then flying above and tries to dive bomb right at Childe like a falling missile. ]
no subject
Just like the last time he was privy to that move, Tartaglia isn't polluted by the water, only his own ego. His strength isn't nearly enough to maintain the forward momentum, knives failing to cut despite the force he's applying. Hydro slides cold and crystalline through his fingertips until the daggers abruptly shatter and he slides back on the soles of his boots, twisting out of the deadlock. The goddess going airborne gives him enough time to improvise, raising a hand as water rushes out to encircle him on all sides.
Whenever she lands, that waves surrounding Tartaglia will melt to trap her in a field of sparks, shocking no more violently than the electro spear he's formed and thrown like a goddamn javelin. Think fast! ]
no subject
He Xuan, in the meanwhile, doesn't need to divide his focus like the goddess does in facing opponents on two fronts, though it isn't like he doesn't recognize that there's a fight against it, noticing a brief moment where there is clear within black waters. So for a moment, he briefly entertains this small tug of war for control.
Though all the same, while Tartaglia cleverly improvises a trap to potentially intercept the goddess' charge, the ghost king will immediately pour enough focus to override the goddess' attempt to regain control of the water in his possession. He's then hurling the water so that it comes down from above where only the goddess is, before freezing over suddenly, breaking apart, and having black, heavy icicles raining down in an attempt to hit her. ]
