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...

I was really excited by the idea of this event so I wanted to see how it would play out. I love when petsites do Plot events. This was a plot I expected to last over the whole duration of the event. It wasn't until later that I found out that prizes would be limited for the people who do it the fastest.
I can't be on all the time. I've seen some Staff members have mentioned that this plot was supposed to last days. However, how can you expect a plot to last over a few days when you relase everything at once? Instead staff should have expected people to want to solve the plot immediately. This happens on all websites that have done plots. That's why most of them stager out parts of the plot throughout the whole event. This way giving everyone equal opportunity to figure out plot and finish that part.
However, this plot was extremely rushed. So those that weren't on when the first person solved everything and shared, missed out. Those that haven't even come online now miss out. While yes they can still finish the plot, there is no point to. The appeal of getting a gold trophy and the prize is now gone.
I think Furvilla really dropped the ball on this event. Making prizes super exclusive and limiting specific parts of the plot to certain villages is a sure-fire way to turn people off from doing future events. I do wish Furvilla all the best and I do hope they learn from this.
Hey, I'm a fairly new player (two weeks in Wooh) so i have know idea how this works.... Any one willing to telling me the heck this thing works? Thanks!
can someone like.. PM me the instructions or something beside I'm having a hard time knowing exactly what to do
I would read it up on the threat it's posted on but I can't click past spoilers on mobile
So Fang Clubs, Icy Swords, etc. don't work? Will this be fixed?
If only the event itself was as good as the art :/
WHY is the main quest in TEP when this is a Quetzal Palace looking event this makes no gorram sense! this whole event is a farce! ILLUMINATI !!!!
There's a quest? Trophies? VIP tickets? Where is any of this?
What about people who weren't on in that first hour?
I'm so confused and this event is a total mess.
Was the "First 100 players" who participated get a Trophy removed? This completely removes people wanting to help others if this was kept in. Let alone not all of us are even on for when the event starts. It's def not very fair to people on different timezones.
The trophy is already limited to being only obtainable during the event. Why make it even less obtainable to those who are not even able to access the event right away? Doing things like this discourages helping the community in a game that is based on communication ( aka community. ) It is very counter productive.
I'm finding it really unfair that these frosted lightbulbs can only be found and created in TEP. The dragons eggs and frosted lightbulbs events should be doable in all areas and not just be an exclusive to TEP. That seems incredibly unfair. I'm in QP and can't even get a dragon's egg?? Not fair! :(
I actually had to have somebody sit down and explain the event to me and I'm still confused. FV has this problem a lot, your site isn't written and designed well for people with dylexia/ trouble with reading comprehension.
