In the wee hours of the morning at Castle Dormont, a massive boulder came crashing through the lord’s tower, killing him upon impact. When the King of Falderen received the news of a surprise attack, he had his mages summon an emergency portal that would teleport anyone who was free to the castle’s summoning room. (This manifests in the form of a prompt asking if you would like to teleport to Castle Dormont).
Although you tried your best to understand what was going on, all you know amid the chaos was that Yladia has laid a siege on Castle Dormont and if you are an ally of Falderen then you must defend it at all cost. When you arrive at the scene, the soldiers manning the wall made sure you know that massive, 20-feet tall Oakhearts are hurling massive boulders at the wall every couple of hours while the smaller Oakheart, Treants, and elves are invading the wall. The Falderen troops are having a difficult time driving them back. The odds are incredibly stacked against Falderen and its dying troops. Fire arrows and projectiles are being pelted at the castle as well, setting some vantage points aflame, making it more difficult to retaliate.
If you consider yourself an ally of Falderen, then defend the castle. Adecus Forest is now in a state of emergency.
Join the fray
Now decide on where you'll spend the majority of your time:
- Assault Thread - Sign up required. If you would like to go behind the enemy's rank to disturb their attack. You have to sign up and you can't jump between the other two threads. This group takes heavy damage.
This event is full.
- Defense Thread. Straight and simple, you fend the attack from the wall. This thread deals a bit of damage every cycle. When you are low on health, you can go back to support thread for some healing.
- Support Thread. You are behind the scene, trying to help the defense group by putting out fire, healing the injured, fixing the wall, and running supplies, etc. This thread will not do damage to anyone and is the safest group.
- You can optionally Help Yladia siege or sabotage Falderen. This is the rolling thread for Elven Sympathizers. Siege the wall or sabotage the effort behind the wall here.
- Bonus Event: See if you're lucky enough to grab a minipet egg here. Help rescue Kit's animals.

- Be sure to read every single post written by staff, which will look different than players'.

The three top guilds in the game,
[YULAN], [VALOR], and [COVEN], have forged a contract to betray Falderen and assist Yladia's attempt to siege Castle Dormont. According to their world chat announcement, any players may join them. Those who refuse to stand down will have to fight to protect Falderen from these treacherous guilds and their allies.
Anyone who wish to side with these saboteurs must roll the sabotage roll and post in the correct thread. Anyone who wish to continue helping Falderen may also continue to post normally. It is now a struggle between the two sides.
The victor of the war, and the direction of the Season's story will entirely be determined by the players.
