Festival of Masks

In Nujel’m, some months ago, a magical fire engulfed the royal vaults. It destroyed priceless flying carpets, melted untouched old lamps, and reduced to ash the jewel box of the blood-red Eye of Dahsk. As his sorcerers recovered from the fierce firefight, the Sultan strained for a glimpse of what remained of his treasures. He could not resist stepping into the vault and going to the Eye of Dahsk’s pedestal. At a touch, the ashes fell away, revealing the gem, now a shimmering blue, the shade of the Nujel’m sky on a clear day.
----------------------------------------------- The Sultan of Nujel’m invites all to his island for the annual Festival of Masks. This will be a lighthearted street party with food, drinks, and shameless thievery. Please wear a mask and pretend not to recognize anyone else who is wearing a mask.

“The Game” will be played. The goal is to figure out who in Nujel’m has the Eye of Dahsk. Then steal the gem and return it to the sultan. The name of the first to return the Eye of Dahsk to the sultan will be displayed on a suitable item at the Felucca Award Hall. To steal the jewel, your character must be a member of the Thieves’ Guild.

This year the Sultan has another request of the assembled thieves. He has made a deal with Sir Dupre, pro tem Commander of the Royal Guard. It will be announced in the (Felucca) Nujel’m throneroom on Saturday, June 16, at 8:00 p.m. CDT.

You can recall or sail to Nujel’m for the Festival of Masks and The Game. There will also be a gate from a few steps southwest of the Felucca Britain Moongate directly into Nujel’m, a guard zone.
