While Vortea leads an expedition to the Abyss Caverns, many finley remain in town, daily life marching ever on. For most residents of Whistler Crest, life has been mostly the same. Except from one little thing... Fae spirits.

Fae spirits appearing around town, visible to those who normally cannot see them. Residents started to report seeing fae in their homes, in shops around town. Often the small spirits are just looking at them, but many are getting into trouble! Whether it be getting into food, knocking over breakable objects, or taking off with items! It has gotten so intense, the odd behaviour caught the attention of the Spiritualists. They have gathered together and announced to the town a plan to deal with the mischievous fae.

Good day everyone! It was brought to our attention that for unknown reasons, Faes are pestering the townsfolk. We will do our best to investigate the situation, but as the spirits are roaming through the streets, we will need to take certain steps to ensure no tragedy happens when interacting with them.

Some of you may be familiar with this item. It's a crystal used to store Mana. When it's sufficiently charged, it may serve as a good repellant. As we are dealing with minor spirits, I reckon placing them in your house or around town should be enough to discourage spirit activity in those areas. We will gladly offer our guidance and help to anyone willing to help us charge the crystals.

As for the... more malevolent Fae... Those crystals can be used to capture them. Once they are contained, we can release them away from the town.

One of the ways to deal with the spirits without causing any harm is simply trying to keep them away from households. Finley can charge the crystal with the help of the Spiritualists and a bit of their mana to create a repellent for the mischievous fae. It’s only a temporary measure, but will help the particularly affected locations. Leota and the Spiritualists will also be catching the more malevolent spirits. Although most of the spirits are just causing minor mischief, some have been… different. They ask any townsfolk with magical capabilities to help charge the crystals with more potent mana, allowing them to capture the destructive spirits, and to go out with a Spiritualist to catch them. Sure hope we figure out the cause of this soon…

Prompt Requirements:

Draw your character helping repel the mischievous fae! They can be encountering a fae spirit, working with one of the Spiritualists to charge a crystal, putting up some of the repelling crystals, or other similar actions! Additionally, if your character knows at least 1 tier of Magic, you can draw your character joining the spiritualists in catching the more malicious fae. These fae are not acting like themselves, and may cause mild bumps and bruises, but cannot seriously harm your character.

Pictures must have a complex background, and at least one fullbody in order to count!
