The High Queen has deemed that all citizens of Dereth be awarded a pennant!
Make sure that you have free space in your pack and speak to Jalina al-Hajj of Al-Arqas.

Jalina al-Hajj tells you, "The High Queen has commissioned me to create a pennant for all Isparians currently upon Dereth. Asheron himself has provided the device - the heraldry of his family. I am told that this is in honor of our continued bravery and heroics. He and the High Queen have decided that he no longer needs to watch over us, and now Asheron may return to his home."
Jalina al-Hajj tells you, "Take this pennant and display it proudly! But be warned that I am only commissioned to provide you with this once."
Jalina al-Hajj gives you Homecoming Pennant.

--Spikeyhairedguy of SC reports: "Virindi Shroud exit portal no longer transports you to the Caul -- it will drop you in Zaikhal next to Ecorto the Lost Director instead. When my old tie that links me to the virindi shroud dungeon and hit the exit portal I got this message:"
You return from beneath the Caul.

--Jonin reports on the changes to the Singularity Bore: "It is now full of Assailers, Virindi Adjudicators, Executors, Consuls, and Profatrix's. There are also some Shadow's near the Caul portal. Where there used to be only Augmented Drudges you will now find 3 times as many Bloodletters and Ascendants mixed in with a ton of Telumiat Hollow Minions. My recomendation for the Bore is a party of at least 6 or 7 -- a party of 2 mages, 3 melees and 1 or 2 archers would be best. The way up the Caul portal is Deadly. Expect tons of Assailers,Virindi, and Shads."

--Jira of MT reports a few new landmarks on the Caul: "I decided to run as far north as I could, and came upon some sort of temple. It might be the future place of a new quest that hasn't been put in game yet. There was no portal, but neither did the falacot dungeon the first month. Its a skull, with an entrance in its mouth, with steps leading down. Then about a click away, there is a big tower that resembles the tower in greenspire."

--Riddic of LC reports: "Found this landmark near the other two up north. It looks like a statue of BZ that has its head and hands cut off. Also there are many corpses of shadows around the statue."

--Wraithchild of LC sends pics of Floating Advocate Towers in the south of Caul and the towers to the north! Thanks also to Sauron's Pet of FF!

Known Event Bugs
Posted by Ibn on the Turbine Forums:

• We are investigating reports of lost items from the dungeon of the mansion at 47.1S, 79.4E on all worlds.
• The Quintessence Sickle should have a 325 wield req, not a 325 activation req. This should be fixed in the February event.
• The Sleek Dress may not look correct when dyed. This should be fixed in the February event.
• If you receive a message over allegiance chat before you are finished logging in, it and further messages may appear in green text. This should be fixed in the February event.
• Removing characters from house guest and storage lists is case-sensitive. If you are having trouble removing characters from these lists, make sure you are typing in the name exactly as shown. Adding characters to guest and storage lists works normally. We would like to have this fixed for February.
• The Nefane Listris is dropping it's shell on every kill, this is not by design and should be fixed in February.
• Dolls found on the Singularity Caul are casting level 1 Life Vulnerabilities. They should be casting higher level spells in February.

Iceiss of SC reports: "This is a screen shot of my beloved argenory dyed sleek dress. As it turns out while I was gone my char went and had a few too many at the pub in Tou-Tou and messed up her dress! *cry* Hope my alchemist can whip up a batch of azure gromnie detergent!"
