For the last few years I’ve been helping my mother with her duties as a priestess. However, when I was finally able to return to my people, everything was in disarray.

My absolute favorite self portrait. The festival was amazing: I even made a new friend!

Contrary to my element, my two favorite things at the festival are the large torches everywhere, and the candles that float in the waters in the major cities. I enjoyed the festival very much, as I hope you all did.

You may visit the vendors at the festival, and in exchange for fireblossoms you’ve collected, they will pass on to you lots of fun things. Fireblossoms are collected by Honoring the Flame in each city. When you have enough, you can buy clothes, food (like Amithyst’s favorite: smores), potions to make you dance in flames, flowers to share with your friends, and even a strong alchaholic beveridge that will set your breath on fire!

While in the city, I was showered with petals someone bought from the vendors.

Care to dance? No matter what your race or class is, you turn into a dancing pixie.

I love all the light the festival brings, even in Darkshire!

There are fantastic events at each location, including firebreathers! I’m going to learn how, too.

My only regret is that Amithyst isn’t here to appreciate all the life. She would love it even more than I.

The Midsummer Festival has been in progress all week. I have plenty of interesting things to share with you, so there will be more images per post this week!

Even Darkshire got in on the festivities.

Even in the darkest places, there is hope.

I ran half way across the continent today! I stopped to admire the falls, as always.

It was a dark place, but there was so much water.
And a hydra!

I learned my cat form today. You can learn a lot from the temple.
