This popped up on all shards in Moonglow (at least on the three I checked.) Are those dolls holding Candy Canes?!?

Ya the event has something to do with art in the Royal City.

Those elves are just one the presents we didn't get at Christmas.

I wonder how many of Hooks Map we will need if any. We will find out soon!

I guess they finally remembered the Christmas gift then, seems a bit bizarre to have elves with candy canes in April, maybe it's a late April Fool joke, everything seems to be running late around here recently.

The moonglow one had the book straps on the tables, why are they there if they are "Vet Rewards"?

It looks like some kind of a bazaar? A bizarre Bazaar *giggles* but you know what I mean? A little market type thing?

Maybe it's just to show off some of the vet/store items because there are a few of those at the gardens in the Royal City too..the gargish totems are there along with some other really strange stuff!

So...lets have a little backstory just so there's a some info for people.

When the *Mysterious creature* was spotted (St. Patrick's Day Clicky) some people noticed the town cryer had a new entry!

But when exploring the area just found some empty areas that might look like housing spots?

But today when I went to look there were some interesting art pieces being put on display!

This area remains empty, but the stairs leading to nowhere makes one thing there might be something coming soon!

Just to the East is a small area that looks like it might still be under construction

1617801527255.png

To the East of THAT....

1617801619099.png

Some old and some new!

I especially like the orange sparkly blood!

I think you are correct. If you click on the sign you see " The Oddities Traveling Merchant". I like that some of the new items are there for viewing, so you don't have to trouble players to show you!

The pink book on the floor of The Peg Leg Inn tells a tale of a lost love to be found:

I think the best part about events like this is trying to figure out as much as possible before it goes live!

There's a fairly good chance of lot of these items are leftovers from old Seer or EM events.
Most of these have new items that have just been put in the game this year. The book sure matches the Lore, I can't find which dock the orc is on but the other spots have items that are new, so it can not be from an old event since all but the book (can't find the dock) is also on LS.

The orc on the docks is NOT on LS


There is a clue in the screenshot....that tiny little bit of swamp.....where is there a dock that close to a swamp area...

The way I look at us discussing things on Stratics that we found in game is that we would be doing it at a Tavern if we were roleplaying, so I just pretend we are all talking over a mug of ale and we would naturally talk about new discoveries.

If things aren't on all the shards, they aren't part of the official story arc.

Don't go down the rabbit hole of old event leftovers.

I didn't click post. Is this a rabbit hole?

This guy always been in the Cats Lair on Origin?
If not, this is getting serious.

Yeah these are NOT event left overs...and no that Murder witness has NOT been on Origin...he's new.

Remember....they said the next event would be mid-April... it's the 11th day.....so we are getting close.

I know they add event tid bits a little at a time...remember the Black Gate? We had already practically finished that before the event was live. I think maybe they are just throwing in a little at a time so we can't do that this time....but these random pirates on the docks were most definitely not there before.

I do have to agree, however...that it doesn't quite jive with the next events description.....

A Soulless Seduction - Embark on a quest to discover the whereabouts of a missing artisan from Tokuno and meet interesting characters along the way! We are targeting a mid-April launch date for this event so keep an eye on UO.com for full details!

But we shall see!

I know a lot of the things are just to show off the new Store/vet/black market items....the dogs by the castle to show off the new pet castle, the cute little set up on the island to show off the map and chest and stuff.....but the NPC's are new and the pink book is new and neither have anything to do with any of the items.
