In the previously unnamed Omen Islands a celebration has taken place every year, one to thank the goddess of the sea for her protection over the past year, and to give her offerings to ask for prosperity and guidance in the seas for the next year. This celebration was always closed off to non-native Omen Islanders, but this year, they have opened up their home and hearts to celebrate their culture with the rest of Subeta.



Starting today, Subetans can be a part of this festival in Delphi as well as in the Omen Islands themselves, if they know the way. Celebrate the power of water by soaking your friends with water balloons and pistols, sold by a festival vendor named Noijatat. While you're visiting her, why not have her paint your face in typical Omen Islander fashion?



If you find a golden trinket or relic, it's said to bring good fortune and prosperity to give such items to the goddess of the sea. Moana has set up an area on the coast of the Omen Islands to accept such items and offer you a small reward for your generosity.



In the spirit of celebration, the Islanders would like to wish you, "Yeyei'i ao vivi natatl,, which roughly translates to "Live the life of the sea." Have fun!

i was hoping on something like this! subeta's kind of boring without community-wide events like this.
anyone find any gold trinkets yet?
This sounds fantastic and fun. But I don't understand how you get people 030 <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
I hope this lasts for at least a week - I will be gone the next 3 days!
Beautifully drawn o.o
This would be more fun if there was no lag.
This looks like my favorite holiday so far.
what complete a map for an event..unfair i say
Moana is gorgeous &#9829;
This sounds like so much fun but I can't get any of my pages to load... sigh.
why and the heck would you have a big event when we are having MAJOR lag issues? i mean i love the event and everything, but its not much fun when nothing loads.
I like the addition to the Island, think it will stay?

And I hope the achievements aren't too extensive for the tokens, otherwise I'm in trouble xD (0:0 so far)
So much fun! I'm so glad I finished the map like a week ago <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> Moana is beautiful, great job whoever drew her <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" /> Yay for face paint and getting soaked!!
Too bad I never completed that Uncharted Land Map. I am so bummed now! ):
i can't layer the face paint :/ or remove it
I think you do need the Uncharted Land Map.
For those asking, I found my trinket like I did the flowers at the Vesnali event- they appear randomly on a page, and you click on them to get them.

To get to Omen Island, you have to complete the Uncharted Land Map (NOT the same thing as the Treasure Map!).
I can't get there, do you have to have the Uncharted Land Map or something..?

Looks awesome though, I love the face painting x3
Oh, my god. That art is SO BEAUTIFUL, seriously my favorite npc ever. In loooove

How do you get to Omen Island?
Wow, my first event here <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> and it sounds... interesting xD...
...There's no time limit between soakings?
Will there eventaully be a way to layer the face paint under our wigs and stuff?
It's similar to the Bonfire event, how we'd throw red rreign items into the fire and usually get an item in return.
I found a golden nest trinket on the site and tossed it into the sea. I got:
Red Giant Bead Necklace
in return. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Thanks for the event!

Is it worth it to use your Trinket for that?

And I found my trinket in my items randomly. O-O
I don't understand paying to get the balloons and then randomly find the trinkets? Except for the achievements that come with it. I don't know I found one trinket when buying a balloon, so I'm not sure how to get trinkets. I just think it is odd you have to pay to get the balloons unlike the flowers and stuff. Hopefully it'll get clearer and not so laggy. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />
yay more things to do <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Dang, hit the post a comment button before typing anything. xD

ANYWAYS, AWESOME new event. 'Cept for one thing. I'm going to be leaving for camping tomorrow morning, hopefully this new event will be up for a little while, so I won't miss out on anything. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_sadface.gif" border="0" />
Wow, Elwood is in love XD

Well, I liked that event, but I hope I find that trinket really soon XD

EEEE! New event! Beautiful art. ='D I'm so excited! <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> For some reason I picture the Omen Island native's with a Jamaican accent, but talking in a tongue similar to Swahili. xDDD
Oh exciting.
;.; I wish the lag problems had been fixed first so we could enjoy the event. But right now the site is so laggy its impossible
