Hallows Eve The Veil Falls

[Caliane Ruinë]

Once upon a morning eerie, when Arethil awoke weak and weary,
Complaining of the day ahead that should have come---
While they yawned, pouring coffee, suddenly there came a screaming,
As of some one madly reeling, reeling at the sights revealed,
"Tis some trick," one muttered darkly, "can't be real," another sneered--
"Only a trick and nothing more."​

As Arethil awakes on the All Hallows Eve the world over will discover that the moon doth block the light of the sun. And in the unearthly, unnatural light ghastly figures now wander amongst the living. As the veil between the realms becomes its thinnest one the Death Echoes become revealed to the general population whereas before they were only visible to those gifted with such magics. They appear in the streets, in rivers, and in peoples homes reliving the same cycle over and over; the last minute of their life.

Scholars theorise that this will only last for the duration of the eclipse, though they do not sound convinced, and they issue statements to leave them well alone.

Amongst the Echoes come the Pstyxia. The spirits appear worried at the fact these spirits have become visible to the public and a few attempt to catch the attention of passers-by, almost suggesting that they should follow them into the unknown...

Will you follow?​

FAQs:

How will this impact our own stories?

• Echoes develop all over Arethil but they are harmless if a little alarming. Therefore it is entirely up to you how much it impacts your story from not at all to very much.

Can I just do my own thing?

• Absolutely! There will be wiki articles on the spirits and pstyxia for you to use in your own stories how you like: why not help a local Echo break free of their torment?

I have more questions! Who do I ask?

• Hop into the All Hallows Eve server in Discord and a member of staff will be on hand to answer all your gruesome questions.
