Festival
of the Crimson Moon

Introduction

Having taken residence of Oak Town in her official capacity as Senator and unbeknowst to the people of Fiore beyond Oak Town's gate as the new Phantom Lord Guild Master, Astrid Venier has brought back to the city one of its most ancient religious events, the Festival of the Crimson Moon. A long-forgotten festival that took place in ancient times but forever tied to Oak Town's history, an open invitation to all of Fiore to attend has been extended. And the timing could not be better, with the rest of Fiore seeming to descend into chaos around them. But there's no reason to be concerned with all of that terrible business; enjoy yourselves in Oak Town as an ancient part of its culture is brought back after generations of being forgotten.

Extra

Users who are located in West Fiore may post in Orchidia without having to adhere to Travel Regulations, so long as their only topics within that subforum are [FCM - Flames of Night], [FCM - Titanic Horrors], or [FCM - Refugee Plight].

The Flames of Night

Financial hardships have struck some of the cities in Fiore, the sudden change in fortunes causing their people to suffer significantly as a result. All it takes is a little push to send people to their most desperate state, and often violence accompanies this. Riots have broken out in multiple cities throughout Fiore as the people rage against their cities' failures to address the hardships caused by Astrid and Phantom Lord. Either join in the violence and help set the people riot against within the cities or rise up to stop the rioters, hoping to preserve order.

Titanic Horrors

For some cities in Fiore, protections and securities from threats beyond their borders are neccesary costs that come with a safe and prosperous survival. Gradual depletion of available funds however have made sustaining such efforts near impossible. Several cities suffering such plights have found themselves besieged by towering humanoid-like creatures. Illequipped to handle such a threat on their own, these cities have issued an immediate call to arms, seeking aid from anyone who would be willing to help defend.

Refugee Plight

As chaos and panic persist throughout the cities of Fiore, the people desperately look for safer pastures, fleeing from their homes as quickly as they can. It is in this that you are presented with a choice: Either you can assist the refugees, leading them to potential safety. Or you can lead them to their doom, damning them by giving false directions.

Night Cap

Phantom Lord members, why not enjoy the Crimson Moon Festival in the most proper manner possible? And how is that, you wonder? Well with alcohol, drugs, and carnal delights, of course. Sit back. Relax. Even though the rest of Fiore may be on fire, take comfort knowing your guild leader has your interests at heart. Celebrate in your own way, and let the concerns of the other cities be their problem, not yours.

Festival Ritual

With everything going on in the rest of Fiore, let it not take away from one of the key purposes behind the Festival of the Crimson Moon; an opportunity to pray for and worship the fabled Blood Goddess. However, this opportunity as much shows the challenge that comes with everyone worshipping differently. Some may engage in brutal practices including sacrifices, while others may fiercely object to honoring a 'false god' as they may perceive it. Select which side of the matter you stand on, worshipper or protester, and enjoy what you are able to of the Festival of the Crimson Moon.
