nobody deserves to be called a curse, but if you're gonna insist, I'm happy to make it worse

A story of the Visitor...

The 'Minerva' Hellebore Diadem and Veil from Vae Victis

She's frequently found on docks. Never the same one, usually by request, but at times she wanders on her own. You can find her through certain channels, if you know the right--or the wrong--people.

If you haven't reached out, however...if she finds you...'ware the Visitor. You have something to trade that she wants. She will have it.

Her promise is very simple: come with your item to trade; she will offer you payment according to the rarity of the item. You will survive the encounter.

Whether you survive long after...well, that's not her concern.

Trading with humans actually came fairly late to her. She's far more used to trading in areas where the normal humanoid rules don't apply.

But if you're careful, and you're courteous, you can trade for a thing you deeply want. Just be warned: she does not bargain. It is thing for thing, worth for worth...and you will never find her again if you play her false.


This is a truly lovely set. It's comprised of two parts, both can be worn independently: the /Vae Victis\ "Minerva" Hellebore Diadem, which I'm wearing in Fit 1 (of four), and the /Vae Victis\ "Minerva" Hellebore Veil, which I'm wearing also in Size 1 (of two). As shown in the last shot, there's an extensive HUD, with six colors for the diadem, fifteen colors for the large inset gem and the smaller decorative gems, a full twenty different shades for each flower, six colors for the stamen center, six colors for the stamen sections that ring the first part, and eleven shades for the diadem. Also seen in the shots: Dullahan's Wraithfire lantern, also from /Vae Victis\.

You can find this one at the Black Fair, January 15th to the end of the month. (Or if you don't port with a beacon, the booth is middle of the upper row, north. Get it now for L$380 before it hits the mainstore for a little more!

Also, heads up for any that missed the event, the Perchten horns, which remain glorious things of beauty, are now in the mainstore for L$450!
