One week prior the upon the siege of the Final Frontier from the Atrellyans, an evacuation was set to order. All of the remaining people loyal to the Church and the Radiant Svengalf abandonned the once village to live in the pastures of Arcadia. Only the reckless, the fools, the braves and the desesperaired would stay there to face the invaders. Otherwise, the once village was deserted. Even the Church was emptied, its inner gardens to be displaced somewhere else.

Whatever was once a district of peace, faith, and simple life, was now barren.

And on the day of the siege, the Carnation district was the first frontline to be held. The remaining soldiers standing there to hold the ghoulish demons would be slaughtered without any of the technological and magical support behind.

And it was with the order of the Director that the District was aimed with the artillery, explosives made of Viridium would salt the land, crumble all buildings and sterilize everything on its path.

Only a wasteland of craters was left. The Church was no more, in place without any faith and hope left. Would it be the end ?

Two years later after the destruction of the Final Frontier, the refugees who fled have settled within Arcadia. With rough beginnings at first, the hospitality of the inhabitants of this everdevelopping hamlet helped to welcome them. Housing were offered, in exchange of working hands to help expanding the hamlet. Soon, north of Arcadia, the Carnation Meadow was to be set : the successor of the Carnation District. A tower was built to surveil now the enchanted, protected Grove, to anticipate the advances of any ennemy.

But it was not the only noticeable change : with the support of the council of Arcadia, the Heavenly Blossom Church was set once more in the Chapel inside Arcadia, ready once more to welcome people wishing to worship the Constant of Life Alacritas and the Constant of Hope Pylae.

No changes yet in the organisation of the Church, starting small under the management of the Radiant Svengalf Sandsker.

Altough ! There is an open invitation distributed to the people of Arcadia by the Champion of Life, and any words that would connect with friendly settlements.

Greetings !

After two years the diaspora of my people seeking refugee in Arcadia and integrating their new homes, the Heavenly Blossom Church is once more taking root within a chapel inside.
Do rest reassured, the Church doesn't interfere with the Faith of Harmony. In the contrary, we help and support each other for many years already and we remain friends and allies all together.

As a reminder, the Heavenly Blossoms Church was built in honor of Pylae and Alacritas, Hope and Life, two major forces in which all humanity taps into daily to continue living in this world.  

We are restarting small, due to how few we are remaining. But as long as I still hold position, I will continue to my duty.

Therefore !  I will be announcing an inauguration ceremony, introducing once more the Heavenly Blossoms Church, and be ready to answer any of your questions.

But also ! I will take this occasion to celebrate my birthday. My 100th year of living within Meranthe. This will be the occasion to feast together after and relax ! There will be a manaball tournament too ! Altough I have no prizes to give, war and the direction of the Final Frontier have ruined me alas. So this will be more of a tournament for entertainement !

I am looking forward to meet you all !

At the sight of the Northern Sky, the stars have disappeared. People witness a moving shadow brewing within, striking an ill omen to those who gaze upon it.

Through these last years, Arcadia has surged their defensive developpement. Aided by the donations of valuable materials and the working hands, joined later by the diaspora of the people fleeing the Final Frontier and the ritual to invoke the aid of Yggdrassil to bless and enchant the surrounding forest, the people stood ready, and alert, of any offensive that would come.

This may be soon the day where they will call the arms. Will it be a conventional warfare ? It is unsure.

But one thing is certain : those who do not prepare themselves for the winter have little chance to survive. Therefore, the Radiant of Alacritas, Svengalf Sandsker, will host an open Workshop for those of Arcadia to help in the preparations for the incoming defense. Be it from food, alchemical or artificery help, it will be the time to bring share requests and assist with.

Those faithfull of Alacritas are also invited to join him in this effort.

We have prepared ourselves for so many years. Sacrifying some of our personnal belongings to contribute to our community. To work hand in hand between our siblings of Faith and Hope to protect our homeland. Some even had to forfeit their own homes to move to new greener beginnings.

I will not allow all of our efforts to be in vain. This will be the determining battle of our survival against the Atrellyans. We will not allow history to repeat the mistake of Moonfall.
What will you do, when there is no path behind for you to retreat anymore ?

Let us gather, and prepare ourselves into a stalwart defense. Let us use all we have done and built to reinforce ourselves. It is time we use the fruits of our labour for our survival. Let us temper our spears and shields under the forge and faith. Let us use the boons of nature to strengthen our bodies and spirits. Let us reap and harvest the crops to sustain ourselves.
