The Caretakers would like to send an invitation to the whole realm.

As per an already established custom in our alliance, we will host a ceremony to mark the leadership transition.

The event will place Sunday (2026-09-27), 3 pm GMT at The Gravesite (7_terracecrossroads_1).

Afterwards, we can head to the pub for a few drinks ;)

I will set up a public meeting to last for the entire event

[27/09/26 17:50] Seigheart:MB is already ruled by the same person... so you can include that
[27/09/26 17:51] Sephirah Caelum:Actually, if we were going to expand our influence, MD would grow mute
[27/09/26 17:51] Seigheart:Is that a bad thing? :P
[27/09/26 17:51] Sephirah Caelum:That’s new! Who is Marind’s ruler?

[27/09/26 18:04] Ledah:Well, sometimes you have to see a legend in the flesh
[27/09/26 18:04] : Syrian draws a card and gets: ♥ King of black hearts

[27/09/26 18:05] Aelis:Yes! Our very own land leader now.
[27/09/26 18:05] Aelis:Ledah could always rejoin the Caretakers and help increase our realm domination *winks*

[27/09/26 18:07] samon:Many things have changed indeed. You can now explore the foundation :D

[27/09/26 18:08] Seigheart:Under the East :D
[27/09/26 18:08] Aelis:We're here to help.
[27/09/26 18:08] :Sephirah Caelum facepalms
[27/09/26 18:08] Seigheart:It requires a few consecutive active days to traverse
[27/09/26 18:08] Sephirah Caelum:And the other gate before getting at the Tribunal’s gate?
[27/09/26 18:09] Sephirah Caelum:I felt tempted to tey to cross, but gat weary of getting locked in.
[27/09/26 18:09] Aelis:The dominion gate? It's temporarily closed
[27/09/26 18:10] Aelis:About time the Demon opens it again
[27/09/26 18:10] Sephirah Caelum: *chuckles* temporary…
[27/09/26 18:10] Confused Santa:What a confusing place
[27/09/26 18:10] Aelis:Hey Santa, you found it!
[27/09/26 18:10] :Aelis gives very precise instructions
[27/09/26 18:11] Syrian:hello again santa

[27/09/26 18:14] Aelis:I'm trying to reach chriselnenepr
[27/09/26 18:14] Aelis:But we can start
[27/09/26 18:15] :Blackshade Rider sits down
[27/09/26 18:15] :Confused Santa sits up down
[27/09/26 18:15] Aelis:I would like to thank you all for coming.
[27/09/26 18:15] :Seigheart sits down in the back, listening intently
[27/09/26 18:16] Aelis:This is a very symbolic place for the Caretakers
[27/09/26 18:16] Aelis:Back then, the CT held a ceremony to bury Molquert, the revival specialist, here.
[27/09/26 18:17] :Blackshade Rider receives a message from redneck
[27/09/26 18:17] Blackshade Rider:Redneck said he cant make it but sends his congrats
[27/09/26 18:18] Aelis:Oh, ok. Thank you, Blackshade. I'll message him later. *smiles*
[27/09/26 18:18] Aelis:Though somewhat in parallel, both our paths were aligned with death in this realm.
[27/09/26 18:18] Aelis:Now we aim to expand upon that, trying to look at it from another perspective.
[27/09/26 18:19] Aelis:I would like to thank Ledah for being an amazing leader. And phantasm before him.
[27/09/26 18:19] Aelis:Also, the Grand Duke Chewett for accepting my proposal.
[27/09/26 18:20] Aelis:And finally my fellow Caretakers. You're the core of it all.
[27/09/26 18:20] Aelis: *bows* Thank you.
[27/09/26 18:20] Aelis:Would anyone like to say a few words?
[27/09/26 18:20] Chewett:Congratulations Aelis on your new position
[27/09/26 18:20] :Sephirah Caelum claps
[27/09/26 18:21] Syrian:yay CT!
[27/09/26 18:21] :samon claps
[27/09/26 18:21] Chewett:I am quite sure that it will bring the Caretakers to new depths previously un-shovelled
[27/09/26 18:21] Chewett:I am pleased to see it continue
[27/09/26 18:21] Blackshade Rider:Congrats Aelis. Your a good fit
[27/09/26 18:21] :Vahr smiles
[27/09/26 18:21] Chewett:And maybe other groups shall reform in the future *winks at Syrian*
[27/09/26 18:21] Vahr:Congratulations :)
[27/09/26 18:22] Aelis:Thank you, friends.
[27/09/26 18:22] :Chewett turns to Ledah
[27/09/26 18:22] Sunfire:to death, and rebirth!
[27/09/26 18:22] Seigheart:Congrats Aelis! I welcome the new reign.
[27/09/26 18:22] Sephirah Caelum:Ahhh….Wait! Now Aelis is the chief!
[27/09/26 18:22] Syrian:you mean 7ft under instead of 6?
[27/09/26 18:23] Chewett:We shall see where we reach Syrian
[27/09/26 18:23] Syrian:7.2??
[27/09/26 18:23] Syrian:that's daring
[27/09/26 18:23] Seigheart:I like 8
[27/09/26 18:23] Seigheart:Hounds cant find them that deep
[27/09/26 18:23] Syrian:gonna need a big shovel for that...
[27/09/26 18:23] Ledah:Well, surely now the moment everyone has been waiting for is here?
[27/09/26 18:23] Blackshade Rider:Hounds are no longer around seig
[27/09/26 18:24] Ledah:Yes, yes, I did write a speech somewhere... but who needs words... actions are much more important.
[27/09/26 18:24] Syrian:definitely expecting shenanigans
[27/09/26 18:24] :Aelis does a little drum roll
[27/09/26 18:24] :Chewett expects actions
[27/09/26 18:24] :samon looks with anticipation
[27/09/26 18:24] Ledah:So, Aelis. I entrust on to you the Caretakers, you have more than earned it... as well as 2 particular items that comes with the role
[27/09/26 18:25] Ledah:The first... the legendary Caretaker's Spade... many a victim has it claimed in my hands... I hope to see you do more good work with it.
[27/09/26 18:25] Ledah:...and you will get it after the party to stop any... accidents.
[27/09/26 18:26] Chewett:That shovel looks mighty stuck to your hands
[27/09/26 18:26] Sephirah Caelum:I am as out as the shell of an egg! *laughts*
[27/09/26 18:26] :Ledah coughs nervously
[27/09/26 18:26] Chewett:Let me use some magic *winks* (One moment while I make it transferrable lol)
[27/09/26 18:26] :Aelis fails to hide a chuckle
[27/09/26 18:26] :Sephirah Caelum is resdy
[27/09/26 18:27] :Ledah falls over
[27/09/26 18:27] Chewett:Ledah, why don't you try giving away.... I won't ask why it's so sticky
[27/09/26 18:27] :Ledah passed Caretaker's Spade to Aelis
[27/09/26 18:27] Ledah:Yes, accidents like that! You can... clean it yourself.
[27/09/26 18:27] Syrian:dig deep!
[27/09/26 18:27] Aelis: *nods* Thank you, Ledah. Rest assured that we'll make it good use of it.
[27/09/26 18:28] Ledah:That was left to me by phantasm... but now I have something for you from myself... The Caretaker's Seal...
[27/09/26 18:28] Ledah:I hope the darkness it holds always keeps you company
[27/09/26 18:28] Seigheart:hehe
[27/09/26 18:28] :Ledah passed The Caretaker's Seal to Aelis
[27/09/26 18:29] Ledah:Well, that is that! Congratulations! All I ask is that you never let them go to waste, and you pass them on when your own time comes... as it always does.
[27/09/26 18:29] :Aelis walks next to the grave and drives the shovel into the ground
[27/09/26 18:29] :Blackshade Rider passed Black rose to Aelis
[27/09/26 18:29] :Seigheart claps
[27/09/26 18:29] :samon claps
[27/09/26 18:30] :Seigheart passed Black rose to Aelis
[27/09/26 18:30] Aelis: *raises the spade* The first spadeful of earth for this new era.
[27/09/26 18:30] :Blackshade Rider nods
[27/09/26 18:30] Seigheart:I give this Black rose in honour of the moment. May it never wilt.
[27/09/26 18:30] Aelis:Thank you. *nods*
[27/09/26 18:31] Aelis:Before we move on to the festivities...
[27/09/26 18:31] Aelis:A quick sneak peek of our next steps.
[27/09/26 18:31] Chewett:It feels fit you need a new title Aelis
[27/09/26 18:31] Chewett:Maybe we shall see one once we hear of your exciting next step
[27/09/26 18:31] Aelis: *bows* Very well, Grand Duke.
[27/09/26 18:33] :Sephirah Caelum looks happy
[27/09/26 18:33] Aelis:As seekers of the balance between what is lost and what remains, we will set up an outpost in Necrovion in the next days.
[27/09/26 18:33] Aelis:It's been 10 years since the main human structures of Necrovion have been deserted. It's about time we revisit the place as Caretakers and see to it.
[27/09/26 18:34] Aelis:The rightful Queen will accompany us in our quest. As well as one of the dutiful death patrol members.
[27/09/26 18:34] Sephirah Caelum:Pea vê?!
[27/09/26 18:34] Aelis:Should lashtal wake up, he is also welcome to join us.
[27/09/26 18:34] Aelis:All are welcome to visit us once the outpost is set.
[27/09/26 18:34] Sephirah Caelum:Is Peace around?
[27/09/26 18:35] Aelis:Not currently, no, Sephirah.
[27/09/26 18:35] samon: (Syrian became Queen of NC)
[27/09/26 18:35] Aelis: *turns to Chewett* That is it, Duke. Thank you.
[27/09/26 18:35] Sephirah Caelum: *looks at Syrian* What?!
[27/09/26 18:35] Sephirah Caelum:Confusing land…
[27/09/26 18:36] samon:Might I say a few more words in commemoration of this event?
[27/09/26 18:36] Chewett:One moment
[27/09/26 18:36] Chewett:As is customary, the title of the head of the Caretakers reflects their mission
[27/09/26 18:36] Chewett:The Caretakers have always had a varied life, but this new one brings further change
[27/09/26 18:37] Chewett:As part of that change, it is appropriate the title reflects that.
[27/09/26 18:37] Chewett:Therefore I bestow upon you, the new title, Stirrer of Memories
[27/09/26 18:38] Chewett:Thank you, and best of luck in your new mission Aelis.
[27/09/26 18:38] Syrian:fancy!
[27/09/26 18:38] :Chewett bows to Aelis
[27/09/26 18:38] Vahr:Congratulations!
[27/09/26 18:38] :Sunfire claps
[27/09/26 18:38] :Aelis bows
[27/09/26 18:38] :Sephirah Caelum claps
[27/09/26 18:38] :Seigheart whistles and cheers in celebration
[27/09/26 18:38] samon:Congratulations, Stirrer of Memories
[27/09/26 18:38] Aelis:Long live the Caretakers!
[27/09/26 18:39] samon:Long live the caretakers!
[27/09/26 18:39] Sephirah Caelum:Long live the Caretakers!
[27/09/26 18:39] :Aelis turns to samon
[27/09/26 18:40] Syrian:may the memories be stirred!
[27/09/26 18:40] Aelis:Did you want to say a few words, old friend?
[27/09/26 18:40] samon:Thank you
[27/09/26 18:40] Seigheart:And the martinis too :P
[27/09/26 18:40] samon:It makes me happy to see so many people around for this ceremony
[27/09/26 18:40] samon:First I wish to thank Ledah for his many years of service to our humble family.
[27/09/26 18:41] samon:Know that in life and death, the Caretakers will be there for you.
[27/09/26 18:41] samon:Even the Caretakers are not immune to the cycle of death and rebirth.
[27/09/26 18:41] samon:And Aelis' vision has filled me with great hope for the future.
[27/09/26 18:41] samon:Enough to drag my weary old bones from the grave.
[27/09/26 18:42] samon:A return to death as a symbol feels like a natural progression for the alliance.
[27/09/26 18:42] samon:One that I'm sure will be relevant now and for many years in the future.
[27/09/26 18:42] samon:And under Aelis' leadership I'm sure we will be able to fulfil that role well.
[27/09/26 18:43] samon:Long live the Caretakers.
[27/09/26 18:43] :Sephirah Caelum claps
[27/09/26 18:43] Sephirah Caelum:Long live the Caretakers!
[27/09/26 18:43] :Aelis claps
[27/09/26 18:43] :Syrian joins in with the clapping as well
[27/09/26 18:44] :Sunfire claps
[27/09/26 18:44] Vahr:Wonderful!
