Please see below for some additional information regarding the event coming up this Sunday evening, March 22nd, at 9PM ET: Lunar Experiment: The Stellar Collector. There have been multiple expressions of interest so far, and so we’re looking forward to a great event.
Although designed around Trader lore, I can’t stress enough that all Guilds are welcome to attend. The last such Experiment in May 2019 brought out a collection of Warrior Mages, Empaths, Moon Mages, and more.
Quick Summary:
The Stellar Collector, a spell granted to the Trader’s Guild as part of the Contract struck with the Arbiter in Darkness, is a mysterious thing. Between the versatile Iridius crystal it is made of, and the fact that it once worked with the tesserae, a known communication device, there are those who posit that the full potential of the apparatus has not yet been realized. Encouraged by recent Moon Mage visions that appear to refer more and more to Traders and their new brand of Lunar Magic, a group of Lunar Researchers, led by Rafano Rekletar, plans to use the Collector to reach out to the stars for guidance.
