The Preparation for the Ritus quest page updated with details on how to obtain the Energy Crystal, the Bracelet of Dark Essence and the Living Tome! Thanks to Fist of MT, Tears of Blood of WE and Magicpipe II of TD for help on the walk-throughs!

Elemental Weeping Weapons page also cleaned up into a full write-up. I've received tons of poses for the weapons, but many of them are too far away or too dark to use. Please email jackcat@spacestar.net with pics of you posing with your new elemental weapon (please include icon also)! If it's dark outside, go inside a building to snap your shot! See the Stuff I'd Like page for missing poses.

Happy Anniversary AC!

Four years ago today, new portals opened from Ispar to Dereth and adventurers began to explore the dangers of a new world.
In celebration of that day and in honor of the heroes who have swept back the forces of darkness, the Council has decreed that fireworks shall be set off at the bronze statues in the cities of Dereth.
Happy Anniversary, Dereth!

Thanks to Arrden of TD, Angelica Barroun of MT, Irish Faerie of SC, Andon of MT, Bosch of FF, Stormborn of TD, Harbringer's Slave of SC, Akarn Winfield of MT, Siner of TD, Parka of TD, Lightning Dragon of TD for reporting this morning's global!
