Let the Fun Commence
December is here and that can mean only one thing - Aurestal is almost here! Today Aurestal is celebrated as a wonderful time of year when good-will and hospitality grips the world of Terrafrost. However, this isn't how December used to be thought of by Terrafrostians -- especially those in villages covered in snow and rough terrain this time of year. The harsh weather was dark, cold, and a bitter place to be, making it a lonely, desperate time. Legend goes that the accumulation of these emotions welled up as more IcePets were born and communities grew, until there was enough to reverberate up the tallest peaks of Snowslide and wake the Aurora.
Encased in ice on that highest peak was a family of three magical creatures, said to have formed from the very first ice crystals on Terrafrost. These three partners slept peacefully among the ice for aeons, until the sadness from below finally cracked through and reached them. Generosity woke first, a blaze of green, heart going out to the many IcePets in need. Prosperity woke second, red, sensing the frail young and old. The white light of Peace woke last, longing to comfort the distress below.
Everywhere the Aurora went, the three partners spread their warmth and joy. So much good-will and hospitality was fostered, that it became tradition for all IcePets to give gifts, share food and shelter. In celebration of the season, they hung artificial lights on trees and bushes, so the brightness and happiness could be enjoyed the whole month. Gradually, the month-long festivities of Aurestal took form. Green symbolised generosity, red for prosperity, and white represented peace. As IcePet populations grew around the globe, the Aurora found it difficult to reach everyone in time; they needed help. They used their magic to bring more ice crystals to life -- though it had been aeons since their own creation, they were able to muster enough power to give life to thousands of tiny snowsprites. The snowsprites were small, but they had enough magic to carry the gifts of peace, prosperity, and generosity. The Aurora would carry the sprites with them, flying overhead in a streak of light, and let them float down with the snow. Thus a snowy Aurestal became a sign of good luck, and to this day young IcePets get excited about the snowsprites floating down with presents.
Christmas will now be referred to as Aurestal. The lore of Aurestal will change previous Christmas stories, which will be announced as adjustments are made.
With the arrival of December and Aurestal nearing closer, it is time for festivities to begin! The Advent Calendar is available for the month. Be sure to check every day!
