The Great Shattering
The shockwave that spread through the world was not one of anger, or of rash action. It was methodical, prepared-planned far more in advance then anyone could have expected from the Maiden of Chaos. From the edges of Belinard to the distant shores of Bannesiel, all wondered in both fear and silent curiosity just what had been wrought upon this world.
For the past few Years, every so often a strange landmark would rise from the ground, in particular areas that seemed to carry no rhyme or reason, save for that they emboldened a theme of history within the lands they sprouted from. They seemed to appear after some great threat that had come and passed within the regions, or if a small incursion had been properly repelled from their lands. Regardless of how- these "Pillars" have risen, Twelve in all, across the landscape.
And now, they have been activated, their dark deeds coming full circle.
Beams of pure violet light now pierce the skies from each pillar, creating an unseen barrier over the plane of mortals that has had an immediate effect on those connected to the Divine. Terrible feelings have overcome them, of pain wrenching from their very form as if their souls separated from their bodies..and then a feeling of weakness for septs afterwards. Those not connected to...

Another CiT Update! (4/3/19)
CIT Update!
Hello again, we in CiT have discussed a set of changes, and feel as though such would be quite pleasing to the lot of you! These changes range from the pricing of custom items, backstory-ing custom-items, to the monthly cap of Liquid Mana. To begin, the changes made to the pricing of custom items are as follows:Pricing Changes: (Affects Everyone)
All of the prices for custom item categories have been halved, or reduced in some form, and the values based on item rarity, altered. Currently, the values of discounts remain unchanged, but this is entirely subject to change over time. This was performed on many complaints relating to pricing being too high for new players, being too close to those being paid for regions, or making discounts feel like something needed. These numbers are also subject to change over time on account of the new material gathering system, and/or upon further feedback.

Aethier - The Gathering Update
Not my usual way of posting a service update, however today I have the first phase of a major update that is being introduced to the server.
This is the Gathering Update, and as of now you can now find resource points scattered around the map in which you can find resources, currently mining resources that give actual items to represent what you are finding. This being ores that you can take to vendors and have them converted into ingots, in which can be used to make items.
I dont want to ruin it by giving away too much, but I will give you a few examples.
Finding An ore item in a chest at a disgite:
Finding ore at a Ore Node Location:
Smelting ores at a Smelter on the Spirit Island:
Selling Excess ores at the Ore Trader on the Spirit Island for a small amount of arunes:
In accordance with the this update, we have also added rule 24 to the code of conduct found here: https://www.aethier.co.uk/forums/index.php?threads/rules-policies.46002/
