I agree with Bhiele! <3 Those people are great.
And Viravain- huge rave to Viravain. She adds a great flavor to the forest, and so many people don't even realize that they're enjoying Her, too.

Also to Lendren, even though he is my archrival of dooooooom Just kidding about the archrival thing, but still, raves!
Oi, I am so ready to hang up the Drama King hat anyway! Heck, I've been hoping to lose the theater competition, both to get other nations to be more likely to compete, and out of a suspicion that winning so often (usually with no competition, so it doesn't mean anything) is discouraging others within Serenwilde from writing and directing. (Dozens of times someone's said "I have an idea for a play" but no plays have emerged.) It's going to be such a relief to lose this year. It'll be the next step away from writing because I have to, because no one else did. The next step back to when I could write because I had something to write, and take as long doing it as I felt it needed. All this writing to a deadline has dried up my inspiration!
So counter-raves to Arel and anyone else who's taking up the pen and making me an archrival! I could use it! (And you Serens with ideas, go write already!)

A horrible, angry wind forms above the city, churning and twisting about wildly,
washing the city in a horrible, pungent odor. Clouds of white ash rain down upon
the city as the tempest turns and lashes downwards into the Celestine Seminary,
whipping about it in a furious, howling display. The Seminary begins to shudder,
then stills, despite the winds. With an angry howling noise the winds grow
stronger, and the building shudders once more, sending a cloud of dust and white
ash upwards, accompanied by the sound of collapsing buildings.

This is so awesome/scary/confusing since I just came in at this part and had guildmembers screaming 'Omg come here!!'
I wonder if this was done on a whim (since celestines want to re-do the GH and it was advised we should just rip it all down and rebuild anew), or has been planned and was just good timing.

A tall and slender merian woman in the prime of her life, Jarana Farain is
surrounded with an air of cool superiority and regal bearing. Long golden fins
crest her head, falling like hair down her back, trailing after her with a
brilliant radiance. Clad in a fine robe of white satin with wide sleeves and a
loose, airy skirt that wetly clings to her lissome figure, she carries herself
with an imperial authority, standing utterly poised. Silvery scales cover her
body, their soft sheen contrasting with her dark violet eyes that are filled
with a keen intellect and a burning fervor. On each of her forearms she wears
bracers of celestial gold, glowing with a radiance matching the stars. Across
her neck rests a necklace of a variety of shells, glowing with an azure light.
Jarana Farain almost glows with nearly god-like power.
Very nice, great success.

It's been forever since the Serenwilde has had a disaster fall upon the forest. I think the last time was when, uh, the dark spirits kept lighting the forest on fire. Forest fires for many days! Was tiring and great fun (in my mind). But the tempest seems fun! I totally died to it while getting a painting.

But exciting, I bet! And I'm sure it's part of some really awesome event, which is always fun. Plus, you're in the city, so you get that auto congul-whatever, don't you?
Besides, I wasn't laughing at you as 'ha ha, they're all dying!' I was laughing cause obviously something cool is gonna happen and I look forward to hearing more about it.

Maybe you weren't, but Celina was.
It got to the point where with numen I could solo it, then it suddenly got stronger. No one helped me kill 2 of them, then Wuylinfe came and tried, but kept dying, then I rushed off to get another and ended up dying.
But when we got everyone together, the thing went down like a wet paper sack. But it doesn't actually die, it always returns, which is probably the most annoying part. None of the NPCs are talking or giving us tips on how to get rid of it in a permanent fashion. It also doesn't follow so we can't lure it away and to the Pool of Stars, or out of Celest entirely.
Otherwise, today has been excited. An entire GH destroyed! Whoo.
edit: Oh, and it seeps out poison, like in Hajamin's temple. Without warning, twice, lots of people died without any warning whatsoever. Luckily it doesn't seem to be too aggro, it doesn't track and it doesn't attack until you hit it. Glad they ended the poison thing, though, that was annoying.
And even though we are congluting, we are also dying twice a minute, so we're still losing exp rather quickly.
