The Ravel

An annual, invitation-only event held at the Isle Dormiir, honouring and celebrating the rare vestiges of magic left in Veranis.

The Ravel goes back over five hundred years, always begins on the fifteenth of the month of Mystis, and is organized and hosted by Kier Leafcurl and the inhabitants of the Isle.

Invitations
Ravel invitations take the form of a black envelope sealed in silver wax bearing a celestial sigil. The interior text of each invitation is identical save for the 'Condition' that marks the intended recipient. The invitations read as such:

This letter is destined for the hands of CONDITION.

Your presence is humbly requested for the long-anticipated return of The Ravel.

This invitation is both your guide and your ticket: it grants you access to a silver-sailed ship, departing promptly at dawn on the twentieth day of Haelis, bound for the private island Dormiir, from the port of Ankhus, Esmeria, or Shinri.

''I eagerly await your attendance. ''

Kier Leafcurl

Each letter has a unique 'Condition', presenting an identifying feature to separate the recipient of the letter. In their intended hands, the letters feel 'right', instilling a sense of belonging in the holder. Attempting to hold a letter with a condition one does not qualify for feels Wrong, and fills one with the compulsion to seek out someone who does qualify. People have tried to resist this compulsion, obtaining letters they do not meet the Condition for and boarding the silver-sailed ship to the island - but it appears that the strength of the compulsion grows as the letters near the island, and those who resist too long end up diving overboard and drowning at sea in their attempts to swim back to land to deliver their letters.
