Ahem. Ahh, ahem, pardon me. It is difficult to forget the sensation of water flooding my roots, despite the flood being dried out as quickly as it began in my Trades... I admit, I find it a fascinating trend that student experimentations so often tend to result in an immediate danger that is resolved by the liberal application of hoarded items. Is it perhaps an outgrowth of your land's lack of sacrifice, that your people are so much more willing to risk yourselves for the sake of progress? The fact that you have managed to accomplish such great advances, while our magic is a constant struggle... it leads me to believe that we must continue our work together against the Withering. Princess Celariel and I have discussed at length the interest shown by curious Hope students and their Allies in our most sacred of cultural traditions: the Heart of the Forest. We have finally come to a decision, and her Highness has agreed that the [premium_item]Heartwood Flower[/premium_item], usually reserved for the Kith Allies of those who have fallen in service to the Enchanted Forest, will be offered in the [url=/npcs/7]Headmaster's Office[/url] of Hope University. Taking on this transformation is a rare honor that connects a Kith to the Heart of the Forest - similar to an Alliance, I presume, though it is a singularly one-directional bond. As a Heartwood Kith grows, so too does the magic of the Heart, in small increments that build to a greater whole overall. By the guiding trail of the Wizards Three, we wish for your continued support of our homeland and its rituals - in your own particular brand of thoughtful Hope passion. May we find many more reasons to grow together. [b]Edit:[/b] It seems I have been handed a note from an actual rainbow. Ahem. It reads: "keep an eye out for a major Premium Announcement coming Monday for this month's special Event!" I suppose this means you may want to hold off purchasing new Gems for your account until Monday.

Oh neat! Lots of brown and green.

It's an honour. May our communities' branches join in an unbroken crown.

Thank you Lenta! A-and.... sorry about the flooding.

Thank you Lenta - These are beautiful, and a great honor. (I'm so glad you're okay!)

If I had a kith to match with that heartwood flower... eh, none of my EF kith are a real match for it. Pretty plant kith though.

Oh my goodness I will say This flower gifted on this day What an honor to behold from a dear Princess, we have been told should a worthy kith's heartwood does slow, the witherings spread, then how could I say no?

I'm glad you're ok, Lenta! And thank you for these, they're really beautiful!
