A Farewell under Golden Petals - Tristam - 02-20-2025

Quote:Somewhere, a radiant is extinguished, leaving behind a flourish of harmony throughout Meranthe. Golden butterflies nestle themselves between every crop and flower. Golden petals fall in a beautiful refraction with the light of the sun. In Arcadia, the rain of golden petals would persist, glowing with all the faith the once undead held within her heart.

After the Skirmish with the armies of Dal'Thala against the Serpent's Crown, the surviving Volunters of Arcadia returned to their homeland unsuccessfully in their attempt to bring the retribution against those who challenge their tenets and their faith. Many were defenders, it was the first time they would lead an offensive. 

And this defeat struck a heavy blow on the Morale of the populace: Eitheir, from the sadness of losing their beloveds, or the growing anger of frustration against the tenacity of their ennemies.

But the worst did not end there. Already, Arcadia lost one of the Minister Yuka Asano, previous clinic director, in the past in a skirmish to defend their homeland. This time, the population weeps at the loss of the Minister and Radiant Tiche Alline. A popular figure of Arcadia that represented the ideals and the potential of the local Faith at their peak. A woman in which her kindness has extended her hand to many people in needs within the Land, but also to other nations. 

As the locals mourn their losses, she gave one final gift within the world, in form of golden butterflies and petals flowing through the wind.
On these moments, the Keeper of Arcadia, Svengalf Sandsker, leaves from his silence to adress to the populace.
Quote:People of Arcadia, friends and allies alike,

Many of us are refugees or survivors who have braved against the tides of the Fel. We took our stands, to defend what we cherish and behold dear, to protect what we value and care. We may be meek alone, but we each have our respective strengths, dexterity, cunning, wisdom, and knowledge. But together, we can achieve a strong and powerfull feats with all of our respective might and wits combined.

This defeat is sour, understandably... My heart bleeds with all the cries and tears shed in this day. My condoleances reach to all of you. The Church of Harmony and Heavenly Blossoms is ready to provide all help needed to endure our mourning.

But do not give up on Hope yet. Even if we have lost friends, families, confidents, lovers, it is in their faith and their Hope that continues to live and persist with us. It is, with our collective prayers, that we are blessed with this rain of golden petals and butterflies. It is with all of our faith, in which our Radiant Tiche Alline posthumously brought solace to our fallen towards a better peacefull afterlife.

I would like to invite all of you, who are affected by the losses, even those of Dal'Thala and allied nations, to come and gather near Solais. For us, to give a final send off to our fallen before their last journey under Mortyl's watch.
DATE : Monday 24th, 4 PM EST

The rain of golden petals seems to last abnormally for a long time until this day. Less and less frequent altough.
Solais seem also to glow brighter than usual, as the populace cotinue to pray and mourn for their losses.

The date may be altered if many close relatives of Tiche Alline will not be able to attend.
