Prehistoric Pals In The Plushie Machine
Once fossilized for millennia, the adorable feathery Pheros returned to the world of Santae thanks to the invention of the Resurrection Machine. Now, you can also collect adorable stuffed versions of these prehistoric birdlike friends from the Plushie Machine!
There are 14 cute colors to collect, each one made with love from its soft crest to its sweet button eyes. Stock up on Plushie Machine Tokens to collect them all. Toymaker Quests can reward you with more Tokens if you're running low!
Sanctuary Construction Is Underway!
Thanks to your amazing efforts, the rebuilding of the hidden meadow sanctuary is making great progress! Together, Adventurers have already contributed tens of thousands of materials to this historic project and is now half way constructed!
We heard you! In order to make contributing to sanctuary construction more streamlined, the construction feature has had a "auto" button added to help with accessibility. This means you no longer need to keep manually clicking each individual item to contribute. Thank you for your feedback on making Santae accessible for all!
We have also updated the sanctuary's artwork. The peaceful valley now shifts between bright sunshine and cool moonlight depending on the time of day!
Even More Seasonal Sproutspire Bounty
The forests, fields, and streams of Santae are bursting with life!
Watch the waters closely on your next Fishing trip. If you see a flash of brilliant gold or a gem-like sparkle of green, it might be one of these three new fish: The Golden Virelin, Auraglow Sylquill, and Jadecrest Lioren.
It's one of the most fruitful times of year at the Great Berry Tree. The Tree's branches are bursting with fresh green leaves and decorated with the sweet, delicious fruits of spring -- including three brand new varieties!
The gem-like Verdance Berry Cluster looks almost too beautiful to eat! Vines bearing these shining, faceted berries spiral around the Berry Tree's branches: A beautiful -- and tasty -- decoration. The segments of the sweet Sunburst Berry are bursting with citrus flavor. Peel them away to expose the fruit's sun-like glowing pit!
But wait...this one's not a berry at all! The Blossomdrift Honeycomb is brimming with nectar collected from the rarest flowering trees in the Harmonic Heartwoods, offering a taste of pure floral sweetness.
Finally, stones shaded by the leafy canopy of the Harmonic Heartwood have begun to sprout a coating of rare moss. Blossomwhisper Moss can easily be identified by its soft, mystical blue glow!
TL;DR
★ Pheros plushies have been added to the plushie machine.
★ An "auto" button has been added to the sanctuary construction page, so you no longer need to individually click to submit items!

Combining The Relic Shards
Before long they were airborne, soaring into Santae's wilderness to find the place depicted on the ancient medallion that had finally been made whole once more, after centuries…
As the adventurers flew, the sun climbed higher into the sky, reached its apex, and drifted back down toward the horizon. They pressed onward tirelessly even as twilight draped the land and the first stars began to appear overhead. But Vespera didn't want to stop -- she thought they were getting close!
All at once, she spotted it. The mountains on the horizon formed a distinctive silhouette. The curve of the river below was an unmistakable shape. The rolling valley directly below simply had to be the site of the mysterious Meadow they were looking for!
Vespera urged Ripple into a dive, spiraling down to land on the soft grass. The sunset suffused the area with golden light, illuminating an idyllic pasture -- and a craggy ruin.
Rose's Harlowin came in for a graceful landing nearby, letting Rose and Orion down from its back to join Vespera.
Orion gazed around in wonder. "The Meadow Forgotten...this is a very ancient place, indeed."
Rose ran one hand softly over the edge of a ruined block of stone. "But time has not been kind to whatever once stood here," she sighed. "The structures -- they're just as broken as the medallion was."
Vespera placed a hand on Rose's shoulder, sharing a small smile with the researcher. "Well," she remarked, "we fixed the medallion.
"Let's get some rest for tonight. But soon, we'll get a better look at this place. Maybe we can rebuild these ruins, too!"
No Longer Forgotten: Sanctuary Rising!
A new day had risen over the ruins in The Meadow Forgotten, and Vespera was ready to explore!
"Go carefully," Orion urged her. "Don't disturb the ruins -- but let us know right away if you find anything of interest!"
"I know. I will!" Vespera promised. "While I'm gone, can you send a message out to the Adventurers across Santae? We'll need their help to fully explore this place. Spread the word about how to reach us!"
"That's a wonderful idea," Orion agreed. "I'll get the word out!"
Vespera set out across the Meadow, marveling at the idyllic landscape. The grass was green and lush, the waters of the river ran clear, and the mountains on the horizon lorded over the scene with stately beauty. She could easily understand why ancient Adventurers would have used this place as a sanctuary!
But while nature had continued to thrive, the ravages of time had torn down the man-made structures. Vespera ducked into the shadow of a crumbling stone wall, trying to get a sense of what the building used to be.
The weathered stone itself didn't reveal any secrets, but Vespera noticed something hidden in the protected nook under the slanting blocks. Kept safe and dry by the stone, a scrap of paper was poking out from beneath the ruin.
Vespera swept the dirt and dust away, revealing a fragile scroll. "Oh!" She gasped, picking it up with care. "Orion and Rose need to see this..."
Vespera returned to where the researchers and her crew were encamped, waving to get everybody's attention. "Look -- look at this! I found something. A document, I think!"
The group gathered around as Vespera handed the scroll to Orion. The scholar carefully unrolled the ancient document, revealing its contents for the first time in centuries...
The surface of the scroll was covered in detailed diagrams and illustrations depicting a large structure: The magnificent shelter that used to stand proudly in the heart of the Meadow!
"Do you know what this means?" Vespera exclaimed. "We can use this as reference. Rebuilding the sanctuary is truly possible!"
"Yes!" Orion agreed. "How incredible this place must have been, in its prime. Together with the Adventurers, we can restore it to its former glory!"
There are new rewards for your effort in restoring the Sanctuary!
There are two new avatars appearing around Santae! Can you find them?
TL;DR
★ You can now combine the Seraphic Medallion Shards to create the Complete Medallion.
★ Use the blueprints to help construct the new Sanctuary as a Community!
★ Use construction materials found during the event to construct the Sanctuary and discover the hidden secrets of the Seraphic Meadows!

Secrets of the Seraphic Medallion
Orion nodded in thanks to the group of visiting Adventurers, gratefully accepting the handful of relic shards they had discovered. Every additional piece was a vital clue. As a seasoned researcher, Orion felt that he had a keen instinct for mysteries of this kind. His scholar's intuition was telling him that this investigation was on the cusp of something big!
"Here is the latest batch," Orion said, arranging the fragments on a work table for Rose and Vespera to examine.
"More shards," Vespera smiled ruefully. "If only one of these artifacts had survived intact!"
"It's alright," Rose smiled. "We should be able to reconstruct one!" She picked up one of the new fragments, turning it around in her hand to examine every angle. "In fact..."
"What is it, Rose?" Orion asked.
"This is it!" Rose exclaimed, taking the jagged fragment over to a separate desk, where a handful of artifact shards were already neatly arranged. "This piece fits right...here..."
Rose set the fragment down among the other shards and carefully nudged them closer together until the broken edges touched. "Yes! A complete artifact, finally!"
"Very good, Rose!" Orion replied. "It looks like a coin, or perhaps a medallion."
"More importantly," Vespera said, peering closely at the engraved surface, "it's another clue! Look at the structure there, and the mountains."
Vespera met Rose's and Orion's eyes in turn, gazing seriously. "I can find this place, I'm sure of it."
Vespera and her crew began preparations for the journey immediately, bustling to and fro with the excitement of a new discovery buzzing in the air.
Soon, adventurers will gain the ability to combine the scattered Seraphic Medallion Shards themselves and forge the legendary artifact once more. When the medallion is made whole, its true purpose and the long-hidden secrets will finally be revealed.
