The Farmer's Journey, Part 3: The Nemesis

I don't think it's fair to only have the ability to "collect rewards" active for only 24 hours. I spent 14 days on the event and wanted to open my rewards a few days after the event ended to take care of personal RL matters, but the day after the event ended I find a notice for KaW that my rewards were awarded after spending two weeks earning them I think we ought to have more time, a week would be optimum, to collect the rewards. I've now lost an entire 24 hours, over two days, when I could not take advantage of the plunder boost, n will miss more tomorrow n the next day, due to scheduled commitments. Come on, KaW "community" work with us a little, you take our $$ for xtals n SoDs willingly enough

Thanks for the support, Freddy...now if only the devs would be willing to implement constructive criticism 

Devs please add a activity spell that you have to cast 2 mins before war ..., this will prevent slackers ..... Maybe even make a second spell to cast during war at a random time, if you fail to do either it will result in broken sword 1 day for every extra offence for a grand total of 5 days broken sword. This would get rid of all the free riders .

The main road leading to the holy city of Ciro, birthplace of St. Timaios, was like a slow-flowing river fed by streams from all four corners of the kingdoms.

A great mass of traders, buskers, and most of all, pilgrims, moved steadily up the road to the city towards its main feature, the Grand Temple of St. Timaios. Musicians sang as they walked, while roadside merchants peddled trinkets at passersby. Although it was customary to fast while on the pilgrimage, food vendors swam up and down through the crowd doing their best to entice the hungry faithful to cheat.

Walking their horses amid the great press of life were the Mage and the Acolyte. Although the journey from the desert to the holy city would only have taken a few days on horseback on an empty road, the slow progress of the crowds meant that it was the seventh day since they left the edge of the desert, and by the Mage’s estimation they were still two or three days away from their destination.

The sky was thickly overcast for two days now, though no rain had fallen and there was only the occasional rumble of distant thunder. A refreshing breeze wove its way through the masses, and the solemnity of pilgrimage had given way to the pleasure of travel and of being out of doors in fine weather.

Despite the crawling pace and the constant noise, the acolyte was enjoying herself a great deal, albeit guiltily. She chided herself for not using her time on the road to Ciro for prayer and study. However, the vigor of the surrounding river of humanity was a rare change from the silence of the abbey and a heady contrast to the desolation of the desert, and she could not suppress a spark of excitement and curiosity in her heart.

For the most part, the acolyte and the Mage did not attempt to speak to each other over the noise of the crowd. The acolyte occasionally tried to read one or another of her texts, but always found herself watching the other travelers instead.

The Mage did not look around at all, but stared straight ahead with his customary frown of concentration, purposefully perusing his mental libraries.

After a noon meal of bread from a roadside vendor, the acolyte noticed that the noise of the crowd had diminished enough to allow conversation. She turned to the Mage and remarked:

“I see many here who are either quite young or very old.”

“Yes, it’s the wars,” replied the Mage. “Most men or women of fighting age have been enlisted. Those waiting for their return pray for their glory in battle. Many undertake the journey to Ciro in the hopes that St. Timaios will deliver their prayers for victory to the Great Farmer.”

The acolyte nodded, and clasping the symbol hanging from her necklace whispered a battle prayer before continuing, “St. Timaios was a nobleman before he met The Farmer, was he not?”

“Yes, he came from quite a prestigious family, apparently. I say ‘apparently’ because most records of the family were altered or destroyed after he was imprisoned,” said the Mage.

“‘The Great Leveler of wheat and men.’ Chronicles, 26.4,” quoted the Acolyte. “In life and in death, all are equal before Him.”

“Death and the dungeon make equals of us all,” replied the Mage. “St. Timaios was not a particularly virtuous or brave man, but he was well-educated and and keen of mind, and he was able to maintain both his sanity and his diary throughout his decades in the Nemesis’ dungeon.”

“He had a remarkable strength of will, then,” said the Acolyte. “No doubt it was his association with the Holy Harrower that gave him this strength.”

“Doubtless, doubtless. Yet, who can say?” said the Mage, then in response to the acolyte’s reproachful glance, said “It may have been the Farmer, who needed him alive and sane to record the Farmer’s doings and teachings. However, outside forces were even then acting on the Farmer’s fate. We know this to be true.”

He looked up at the steel sky and sighed. “The torment underwent by the Farmer would have killed a thousand men a thousand times, but He was not allowed to die. It was His misery and His miracle that He survived.”

The acolyte was startled and moved by the Mage’s unexpected and uncharacteristic display of emotion. The noise of the crowd seemed to fade away as she suddenly found the concentration that had eluded her over the previous few days.

She looked back to the text she was holding and began hungrily to re-read it. Before them, the road wound on and on as the river of pilgrims continued slowly flowing towards the holy city of Ciro.

Accessing the Event Page

To access the event page tap the Chest icon located on the top right of the game on IOS and Android. You can also access the event page on PC by tapping on the Event Name located in the new Events section on the right hand side (located just above Friends).

Descensio Elixir

As you complete Epic Battles from now and the end of the event on August 4th at 12PM PDT you'll earn Sparwort, Brimweed, Lapso Sage, and Jugis Herbs. When you collect all four of these items they'll form the Descensio Elixir which determine your rewards at the end of the event.

As you win wars you'll earn completed Descensio Elixirs

Weekend PvP Blitz

During the weekends of July 24 - July 27 and July 31 - August 3 we'll be hosting PvP Blitz events in a addition to the main event. During these Blitz events you'll collect and steal Broken Shackles items from players in order to earn Descensio Elixers to help you with your progress in the main event. Every time you collect 500 Broken Shackles they'll be converted into a Dungeon Keyring which cannot be stolen.

Rewards for these PvP Blitz Weekend events are based on the number of Dungeon Keyrings you own.

PvP Blitz Opt-In

To Opt-In to the event, players will need to cast the Death Warrant spell at the Alchemist. NOTE: Death Warrant will only be available to cast once the weekend event has started.

Warning: Opting-in lasts for the ENTIRE DURATION of that specific BLITZ EVENT and there will be no way to opt-out after doing so.

Opted in players will:

Have their name colored orange to indicate their participation

Have a spell indicating their participation on their profile

Have their Battle List updated to show only players who have opted-in

Broken Shackles + Dungeon Keyring

Once opted-in, players will earn Broken Shackles by attacking other opted-in players. These items are both generated AND ARE STOLEN. The number generated depends on the players size. The number stolen depends on the amount of Broken Shackles they currently have. The higher the number they have the more you'll steal.

Once a player collects 500 Broken Shackles they'll automatically turn into a Dungeon Keyring which cannot be stolen. These Dungeon Keyring are what will determine your rewards from the PvP Blitz Weekend events.

Flail of Agony

When you hit another opted-in player there's a chance that the Flail of Agony spell is activated. This spell lasts for 24 hours, and has the following properties:

Provides you with more plunder when attacking or stealing from opted-in players

Allows you to obtain more Broken Shackles when attacking or stealing from opted-in players

Provides you with a chance of creating Mithril out of thin air when attacking or stealing from opted-in players

Will be visible on your profile as an active spell

CAN BE STOLEN when you are attacked or stolen from by opted-in players. If stolen you will lose the spell, and the attacking player will receive it. Duration is not reset when stolen but continues to count down from where it was for the previous owner.

Note: You cannot steal another player's Flail of Agony spell when you have an active Flail of Agony spell yourself.

Blood Oath

Blood Oath may be purchased in the Marketplace for 59 Nobility Points and casts the Dominant Faction spell on ALL of your current clan members. If you already have Dominant Faction active you will not be able to purchase it until the current spell expires.

This spell lasts for 1 hour and has the following properties:

Provides you with more plunder when attacking or stealing from opted-in players
(This is able to stack with the Flail of Agony spell)

Allows you to earn more Broken Shackles when attacking or stealing from opted-in players
(This is able to stack with the Flail of Agony spell)

Prevents other players from being able to steal your Flail of Agony spell while Dominant Faction is active

Will be visible on your profile as an active spell

Royal Coffers

As you complete Epic Battles you'll occasionally find Royal Coffers. This rare chest can contain a number of goods including Health Crystals, Descensio Elixirs, Seals of the Damned, and more!

You can open these chests in one of two ways.

1) Purchasing a Royal Key from the Marketplace using Gold. You can purchase ONE of these keys per day.
2) Purchasing a Golden Royal Key from the Marketplace using Nobility. There is no limit on the number you may purchase.

Rewards + Leaderboards

Please see the event page in-game to view event rewards and leaderboards.
Weekend PvP Blitz events reward players with Descensio Elixirs which count towards your totals in the main event.

Rewards will be made available for you to collect through the events page shortly after the event ends.
