BT Wrap-Up and Autumnfound Approaches: Storyline Bonus Month!
Posted 4 months ago :: Last edited 3 months ago by HerborealKing Cade Rests Again... For Now!
The aitielkh and habapi successfully wrangled cicadles from the structures they threatened long enough to delay complete destruction, but surely there will be some repairs and cleanup to do for some time. All participants will be given a participation award and Lv2 beast box for a successful victory.
The Beast Trial Shop will be open through August 15th so be sure to purchase what you need before it closes!
We aimed low due to a certain art game going on this month, but players knocked it out of the park!
Autumnfound Approaches: Storylines Gain New Importance!
With Autumnfound around the corner, we want to give everyone a chance to get going on storyline prompts before we drop a new game update that will require completing the first 4 prompts OR having a job class permit/wildspeak!
There is now a Storylines Guide if you need help getting started!

Storyline Focus Event is back! During these months, you may earn bonus currency for completing Storyline prompts without worrying about missing out on any special events. We hope to have these temporary bonuses occasionally during months where other events aren't scheduled. Storyline prompts include: Village Stories, Wild Pact, Oasis Dreams, The Desert Trail, Followers of Aiti, Trail of Mushroms, and Jungle Delights.
Please note that the new feature arriving in September ONLY applies to Bepotelkh and Sonoelkh; it does not apply to Aitielkh, Shroomkin, or Habapi. However, you are still welcome to participate in those storylines for the bonus this month if you wish!
When you submit your prompt, the bonus reward you get (in addition to standard currency) will be randomly generated.
50% chance: 3 Gildes
25% chance: 5 Gildes
20% chance: 7 Gildes
5% chance: 1 Crystal Gilde
Reminder: Recieve a 10CG award for completing any Storylines Path! This reward is available all year.
See WORLD > PROMPTS
New Items Appear...
You may notice some new items appearing in the Daily Calendar this month! We won't provide details for now, but all will be revealed when Autumnfound begins Sept 1st! Be sure to sign up for the Daily Calendar Reminder role in the discord server if you'd like reminders to check in every day!
Felvits Are Here!
A new type of companion will be available going forward! Meet felvits (pronounced like "velvet")!
Felvits are omnivorous wild animals that can be captive raised, but aren't quite domestic. While native to the surrounding environment, some varieties have clearly been tailored toward human tastes. They have 5-toed grabby hands and are very nimble depending on the type, spending a lot of time in trees or otherwise up-high. Sharp claws for climbing and big ears for hearing All. They take well to living alongside humans and elkh as they enjoy picking off the pests that follow, such as small rodents and insects. They eat pretty much anything they can, including fruits and even (human-cooked) grains. They come in many body types and even a gliding type (the humans did not make this one and it's a questionable pet because it's highly capable of theft)!
(Out of canon note: Felvits are our version of cats for Silkkassaa, but they are a native animal thus stay in reasonable population with the environment they're in! We hope this scratches the cat itch!)
Pet Rotation to Begin in the Elkh Shop
Beginning this month, new pets will be rotated in the elkh shop on a monthly basis! We're starting with one of the new Felvits (the rest will be available in the future, one by one!).
Old companions and exploration prompt companions will continue to be rotated every season in the CG shop.

Bepotelkh Lore of the Month
While there is electricity in Silkkassa, it is not commonplace or expected, especially in more remote areas. Some things, like the train system, are largely powered by solar crystals. |
