Friends and realm mates,
We are excited to reveal that the recently announced Catch-Up in Caledonia event will be Player vs. Player!
The spirit of Mordred has returned and has cursed the Battleground at Caledonia. This evil has infected the hearts and souls of all who enter, destroying their ability to distinguish friend from foe. Caledonia’s PvP mode will allow players to take up arms against their realm-mates and ally with members of enemy realms. Click 'More' below for details!

It's that time of season when the leaves have changed color and are steadily falling, when the wind arrives with a chill and the scent of chimney smoke, and the bounty of the year's harvest is ready to be served and celebrated!
Harvest Quest
-
The realms are humming with anticipation for their upcoming feasts and local festivals!
-
Help the realms' Festival Steward recover a lost shipment of food!
-
The repeatable RvR quest '[Harvest] Lost Turkey' is now available at each realm's strength relic town at the Festival Steward NPC!
-
Earn bounty & realm points for your efforts!
-
The Harvest Event will run until Tuesday, November 28th, 2023.
Farmer's Market Festival
-
The Farmer's Market Festival makes its return to the following locations:
-
Albion: Ludlow
-
Midgard: Vasudheim
-
Hibernia: Ardee
-
Visit the Festival Matron and go bobbing for apples to earn some house trophies!
-
Let Captain Mack in Albion, Captain Marks in Midgard, or Captain Geddes in Hibernia regale you with their tales of a shark THIS big on the high seas.
-
The Farmer's Market Festival will run until Tuesday, November 28th, 2023.
New Mythirians
A new way of leveling the new Mythirians introduced with the latest Crossroad Covenants event has been added. Players can complete either of the following quests then hand the Mythirian to Gwynn at the relic towns to fully level the Mythirians:
-
Supplies for the Cause - 10 times, or
-
[Weekly] The Heart Still Bleeds - once
Please note! Starting these quest choices will overwrite any current level progress on the Mythirians. These quest counts will need to be completed in full, regardless of current Mythirian level. For example: if your Mythirian is currently level 7, you will still need to do all 10 Supplies for the Cause quests, or the [Weekly] The Heart Still Bleeds quest once.
We are currently still investigating the issue with Crossroads event wings not being vaultable.

Crossroads Covenant has concluded! We sincerely hope you enjoyed the event's multiple phases, including a trip to Old Frontiers' Odin's Gate!
Players who have completed all 3 Phases and have a level 10 Mythirian can speak to Gwynn at their relic town to complete a turn in quest for the final Mythirians ( stats can be found here):
-
[Coming Home] Ascension - Vigilant path
-
[Enemy Territory] Ascension - Demonic path
-
Note: if Gwynn doesn't speak to you, un-equip the myth and re-equip it
Players with a Phase 2 level 10 or unleveled Mythirian will need to level the Mythirian stages in order to unlock the final version.
Additional Rewards:
Those who have completed all 3 phases of the event can also obtain the below quests from Gwynn and receive their new cosmetic mask reward and a Battlefield RP Potion. The Demonic Mantle and the Visage of the Vigilant Patterns may be applied to any helm to give them the appearance of these masks. Understanding that helms often change, Gwynn soon intends to start offering a replacement pattern provided you were eligible for the original reward.
Players of the Demonic Order may obtain these rewards via the quest: "A Bargain Fulfilled"
Players loyal to the Order of Vigilance may obtain these rewards via the quest: "Virtue Signaling"
Note: Ruined Keeps will remain until Harvest event.
Coming Up:
Coming later in November we'll have the Harvest event!
December 4th sees the return of the Catch Up in Caledonia event, our 10th such event! Followed by our Midwinter event, including Midwinter Gifts, later in December. And maybe a couple of surprises between now and the end of the year ;)
Stay tuned!

Phase 3 of our Crossroads Covenant event starts today and takes us back to a time and place from long long ago - Old Frontiers. Slay the demonic threat or cleanse the evil as you revisit Odin's Gate!
Gwynn is offering a reward for those who completed both Darkness Falls quests. Speak with him to receive a quick turn in quest.
Continue speaking with Gwynn to obtain the quest:
-
[Coming Home] Awakened - Demonic Path - Hand your level 10 Tome to Gwynn to awaken its power
-
[Enemy Territory] Awakened - Vigilant Path - Hand your level 10 Circlet to Gwynn to awaken its power
To complete the Awakened quests, you may need to speak to your faction npc and power up your Mythirian, even if its already level 10. For players who did not participate in the Darkness Falls part of the event and have no Mythirian, Gwynn will offer you a Mythirian selection ( stats can be found here). This Mythirian must be leveled to 10 (through questing), then returned to Gwynn for the updated Phase 3 version.
Phase 3 Mythirian stats can be found here. Mythirians will continue to grow in power as the event draws to a close.
Once ready, Gwynn will teleport you to to a safe place within Odin's Gate.

Phase Two of our Crossroads Covenant event is now live!
Deep within the heart of the ominous abyss known as Darkness Falls, demonic forces awaken and gather strength, plotting to seize control and plunge the realms into eternal darkness. As the malevolent power rises, the valiant Vigilant Order assembles, uniting beneath the banner of righteousness in an epic struggle against the demonic forces.
Players must first speak to Gwynn at their realm's relic towns to claim their Phase One rewards (if all 3 phase 1 quests have been completed), and begin Phase Two by accepting the quest offered:
-
Demonic Path - [Into the Breach] Foothold

Vigilant Path - [Paving the Way] Crusade
Players can also speak to Gwynn to give him their old Demonic or Vigilant cloak to turn in for a house vaultable version.
