Channel 5 News Update! - A Spirited Journey

Titania McGee here with Channel 5 Action News, your best source for up to date information.
The master spirit lays defeated, with the final blow dealt by Emrys, and the curse of Kiyo’s Sorrow is beginning to lift, thanks to the brave battlers and crafters that took up this monumental challenge, however something unexpected has happened! It seems that with the spirit gone, not only has the sudden inclement weather cleared, but a new land has been revealed in the South Seas. We now go to our Channel 5 Field Reporting, live on site:
“Er yes, hello Titania. I’ve made it to the emerald hills of the new land and have spoken to some of the locals. They say the land is called Shengui Guo, a land of spirits and the otherworldly, and that is has been shrouded by spirit energy for some time.
No one has come and gone from this isolated island nation for centuries, the streets and markets are almost bare, but the mood among the few locals I spoke to is celebratory. Perhaps, with time, the markets will fill again with the chatter of vendors and crowds.â€
You heard it here first: the threat of rampaging spirits has come to an end, and a new land has been revealed. What mysteries and adventures await in this new land? Only time will tell.
(You decide to visit Connor for possibly the last time.)
Note: There will be a few days in which we tally up the scores and sort out prize distribution. Work on your pets, play with your returned-to-color avatars again, or plain just have a rest! Thanks for sticking around, everyone. - Subetateam

Good god, some of the feedback for this plot just..



I literally shouted "holy cheese balls" when I saw the new land!
Can't wait to actually interact with it xD

Ahhhhhh!!! So excited for the new land, especially since it seems to be Asian-inspired! :)
Thanks for the lovely plot/land, staff! (although personally, I hope this isn't the last time we see Conner Rainsong! :) He's adorable, and I really like him as a NPC)

YES!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! The fashion and food should be interesting! Well done Subeta people (Staff)!

Soooo pretty! I'm happy to have color back, and I can't wait for prizes! This was such a fun plot.

f*ck me and my Tab & Enter
Well
All these questions and more, on your next news post with the same title over and over and over and over again

OK, I took a break and she's defeated..did not expect it for another hour, but alls well that ends well I suppose! A new land!! Can't wait to see if I get any prizes :D

sigh I knew this plot was just a way to introduce a new land, pet, or color, but did it have to feel so rushed? Why did people change color?

Once again, the art blows me away. Also... now I feel nostalgic and I shall go Guild Wars it up for a while.... happy sigh
reporter voice Is Kiyo still going to ferry the spirits? Who will replace her if she doesn't? Will we ever see Jaxon alive again? WHY PICK SUCH A CRAMPED SPOT ON THE MAP? All these questions and more, in your next news post!
But seriously, big questions left here. Gimme some heavy lore already, gosh. :D

So the spirits are now at peace because we fought them for being angry at being forgotten? o: Well I'm glad all it took was a little brawl

I loved all of the facets to this plot, personally. It felt varied, with different types of tasks, and the games were solid (and at what I thought was a good difficulty level to muddle through at just enough to pass, but still fun to play afterwards for the achievements!), and the art... GORGEOUS.
Can't wait to explore this new island! It's exciting to see a new land pop up!

I cant believe it is all over. I need to work tomorrow so i suppose it is a good thing it has finished but now im bored xD what to do now. Huh huh huh huh huh

I don't know what to do anymore, it's over.... ;c
Thank you for the event, i had a blast! Now hope i get myself some prizes indeed with the around 2k losses against this Kiyo.

I just want to add, in addition to "like Binder said, Shen = Deity, Gui = Ghost, Guo = Country. It's chinese.", "shengui" is a pretty popular genre in Chinese novels/games, themed to ancient china and involving supernatural characters and elements.
ALSO IM VERY eXCITED IM VIBRATING AND THE ART IS BEAUTIFUL WAAAA

I actually saw Shengui Guo on the map of Subeta, before the news appeared and I thought it would be the ending, a new land. It's quite nice :)


@Amber
Just one question, when is the carnival gonna return to the Subeta map? Is it just going to be found by going to Delphi and clicking from there?

@flamboyantCuttlefish like User not found: binder said, Shen = Deity, Gui = Ghost, Guo = Country. It's chinese.
Come on, that's the most mainstream idea about China and this is a way to introduce more of the eastern asia culture into Subeta.

I was kind of hoping the new land would be more mystical-looking. ;o; But it is quite pretty, I must say. The fact it looks like a lion turtle on the world map gives me a feeling that no word in existence can describe. It is a happy feeling, though...so, so happy.
Also, I hope that wasn't the end of Kiyo.

i didnt realize chinese was a neopets culture/language huh"Shengui Guo"? I thought Subeta wanted to avoid being like Neopets, but the name and the picture for it seem an /awful/ lot like Shenkuu...? Not to mention this is similar to how Shenkuu got discovered too.
Shengui Guo no where is clickable yet. II'll miss Connor. It is good to have a person who is challenged in his case his speech.

The RE is on a cache, so even though we disabled it it's taking a bit for all our servers to catch up!

HAS ANYONE ELSE GOT THE RE AGAIN?! Because I just did.... ;___; :o (one that causes you to turn grey xD)
The event was pretty fun, I enjoyed all the mini games and battling plenty.
Also, that new place with the strong Zhongguo influence and the turle looks amazing! (and that legeica keeping an eye out for it, sobbus)

Haha, Emrys got again the final blow, congrats.
Can't wait for the final results for all of this.
Hope the 1825 loses are worth it.
