The war is over.

After many weeks of fighting between the troops of Atlantis and the denizens of the islands, leaders from each side finally met to come to an accord, and the Treaty of Thorns was codified.

Queen Rhys and her people yielded their claim to the isles of Kela and Pera, and the Queen vowed that Atlantis would cease their fighting. In return, island residents agreed upon this: Atlantis shall be granted a territory on Isla Kela in which they may establish a new home, growing their plants and nurturing their own way of life. Not all island residents agreed with this clause, but the alternative would be sentencing all of Atlantis to a slow decline with their dome as a prison- and most took mercy on them, especially those who once dwelled within the Alpha Labs and understood their plight.

The Queen has opened an invitation for any island resident to join the kingdom of Atlantis, now beginning its move to its new home on Isla Kela- those who want a fresh start, a new life, and a loyal people will be welcomed into the fold. Additionally, the Queen and Atlantis are taking steps to be friendlier with their new neighbors, including teaching others the way of agriculture, armor use, and Atlantean history.

The Atlantean dome has yet to be fully repaired, but progress was made, and the leak has slowed. For now, the dome still stands- but only time will tell if it lasts. Saltwater has already poisoned a section of the dome, killing most plant life, and it will continue to gradually spread as time passes, lest someone is able to repair it completely someday. As the kingdom abandons their guardianship of the dome, it becomes open to curious explorers and daring adventurers. Those who still wish to brave its feral jungle may do so.

If a dinosaur has any standing reputation with Atlantis, those status effects will remain- for now, at least.

And if you've got any shimmering or tarnished doubloons left- we may have more plans for those again in the future! We'll provide updates on the status of those once we've determined what is to be done with them. In the meantime, they'll remain as trophies in your inventory.

There are still many event quests waiting to be processed, and we'll be doing our best this week to clear them all out! Please excuse delays as we work through the queues.

Quest corrections: all event quests have a 2 week time limit for corrections. This means that you must resubmit your corrections within the time limit for them to count for War of Thorns prompts and loot. The 2 week countdown begins when a staff member responds to your original submission.
