The Serpent Festival

Greetings, villagers of the mainland. The time has come, and the serpent has landed on the mainland and is ready for your offerings. This ancient beast is one of the last remaining from the old times, before written history, before the villages came together in a global economy and named themselves, collectively, Furvilla. This serpent is where the villagers of Quetzal Palace have made our town, and its constant movement allows us travel across the entire Furvillian continent. Except for these coming two weeks, at least...
The serpent is peculiar, you see. It enjoys collecting small animals and weaponry/armor (though we are widely uncertain what it does with these items). If you bring it an offering of these items, it will reward you in turn. Our Cloudog species was created by the serpent, and it appears that it has created more life from the clouds:
As you may note, these creatures have a breeding cool-down of one day. This means that you may attempt to breed them, if you are skilled in animal husbandry, or you can continue to offer the serpent creatures in exchange for its creations. You may find that the serpent is more rewarding, if you are seeking out a rarer animal. When the serpent leaves on March 1st, these creatures will become infertile, and will not be able to breed.
But fear not, as the Guardian Angels will be working to collect rare and super rare creatures to offer at the Gala Ball. Nonetheless, if you happen to include 5,000 FC with your animal offering, the serpent may regard which species you prefer.
The serpent is giving away weapons and armor (and a helm) that are far stronger than most we have created... and much more sturdy. Perhaps one day the serpent will share its techniques for durable construction with our blacksmiths... hm...
This is the Serpent's Feather, and you can obtain it by trading in weapons or armor to the serpent. This is the currency of the Gala Ball. If you wish to purchase anything from the Gala, then you should collect these. Hm... I do believe you may want to make sure you collect fifty of these beautiful feathers before the Gala opens... but that is your choice, of course.
That strange fellow who creates all the plushes has been hard at work designing ones for our illustrious festival... now, you may not find you are able to get your paws on these until the Gala opens. However, you can gaze upon them right now and begin your plans for collection.
Speaking of the Gala, you are aware it opens on February 21st at 12:00 PM, yes? I expect you will be getting yourself ready for that... place yourself in a nice suit or dress, and you will look your best. Perhaps you can earn yourself a VIP ticket to the Gala? Do be sure to bring plenty of feathers, as there will be many fashionable objects available at the Gala for your perusal and purchase: plushes, furniture, vistas, rare and super rare creatures... perhaps other things, as we hosts see fit.
It appears that the Skunk and Dutch Angel Dragon species have found their wings in the Fairy Costume... or an extra pair of wings, depending on who you're talking to.
The Snake and Dutch Angel Dragon species have learned to smile down upon us from the stars, and can now wear the Galaxy Costume.
The Dutch Angel Dragon and Bear species have joined our ranks in the army, and can now wear the Angelic Costume.
Now, if you will excuse me... I am a bit preoccupied with a promise I made earlier... *she searches for a note that she had written, but frustratedly cannot find it* ...oh dear. Well, this may not end well...

- Help Ana! Something's gotten her worried...
Tom_Suke I'm glad to hear that your experience with the mods has been more positive than my own (and I hope more users have had your experiences than my own, for their sake). Nevertheless, bitter personal experience with staff tends to make people shy away from communities, and I have little interest in using the forums when the Mods have been unfair to me in the recent past.
I did, however, try to find a spoiler thread, and I found one, but it will require copying and pasting to read the spoilers (because they are white text on a black background, which I cannot read without migraines and blurred vision). Besides, it just seems unfulfilling to simply read the answer, rather than a logical kind of puzzle where one can puzzle it out for themselves. I mean, the general public isn't even given a clue to start with or a page to start on, just something about a note Ana lost. I understand not handing everyone the answer, but you have to give everyone a place to *start*. I can't even visit Ana because she's not the mayor of my town, so how am I supposed to find a note for her? I like doing puzzles when they are clearly defined and give you a direction to go to solve it, but just randomly guessing or bumming answers off of others isn't that appealing to me. Maybe I'll feel differently later in the event, but I tend to doubt it.
Still, it was nice of you to try to help. Maybe others will be less leary of mistreatment by users and staff and more into this kind of puzzle than I am. (I'm more of Sudoku type of puzzle person, where the puzzles have a clear logical progression one can follow with some effort and thought.) Thanks anyway, though. :)
Can someone tell me where to go to trade? I haven't done this before.
I keep getting the headdress. XD
But i am SO happy the snakes are getting costumes <3 Now i can work on something for my Snow Globe
Great...I go and buy 10 barnacle swords, only to find out the serpent doesn't take them...I guess it makes sense though.
Has anyone got anything but the feathered dagger?
im loving this event so far, the item sink is looking really effective. hopefully a slightly more permanent specific sink can be implemented after this. the new item art is really gorgeous & im excited to see all the news costumes on the 21st u0u
I can't use the breeding potion I just got....all it does is give me the loading bar.
What did you do Ana
Gah, didn't realize trading in weapons/armor didn't always get you weapon/armor in return
welp it'll be a long haul to get them
Will we still be able to give the Serpent minipets and equipment once the Gala starts, or is that for the first week only?
