In light of current events, Housekeeper Elfa Hansdotter has decided to hold a ceremony to Vermella in the coming days. This ceremony will promote awareness of the goddess among the populous and will act as an opening ceremony for the House of Vermella in New Falandraal. We shall pray to the god of red so that she may know her people still care for her.
All potential and unknown housekeepers are requested to attend as this ceremony will allow you to meet with Elfa and work towards a common goal. You are also requested that you attend wearing your shawls. If you are not in possession of a shawl or you require a new one, please see Elfa at the event.
This sermon will be open to all who wish to know more about Vermella or wish to pursue her teachings. Guests are invited to bring food, drink, and redstone or monetary donations in support of Vermella and Her Housekeepers. A coat check will be provided, but we ask that all weapons are left with your coats. If you would like to volunteer to help with this sermon, we ask that you speak to the halfling Elfa Hansdotter in Storm's Landing, which she will be frequenting for the near future.
OOC:
I have listed this event as peaceful because that is how I would like it to play out. However, should someone wish to bring violence, all I ask is that it make sense. A copy of this letter will be posted major cities, so don't be surprised if you see that in-game.
Please also note that I am holding this event as Elfa because recent events have forced my hand. Specifically, the recent campaign where there is, as she feels, a real possibility that the gods may be in danger, something that terrifies her. With her becoming active, she is now the longest-active Housekeeper for Vermella. I understand that a few new players have cropped up that have an interest in this role, and I feel it is best that I hold this event to ensure that we are in fact on the same page with how this should be run. I am not here to replace you. In fact, I am very excited to see that there is an interest in Vermella besides just from me. This event should hopefully provide formal IC training to any other Housekeepers out there, including how to worship, Her holy artifacts, Her history, and so forth.
Edit: It has come to my attention that there is a large discrepancy between actual Vermella lore and what has been posted. As such, there is a large compilation effort in the works now. After the event has concluded, I will be pushing the "unreleased" lore to the forums. This lore will reflect what I will be saying in the event and will provide a more complete story about the myths and legends of the god as well as the nature of certain practices. The difference is I can discuss multiple OOC things regarding worship and similar topics that cannot be discussed ICly, such as the fact that Vermellan worship should NOT be Christianized. It will also provide a list of important items and phrases and their significance.
Mentors and Staff:
This event will also serve the purpose of counting towards Elfa's sermon count for becoming recognized by Vermella (I forget the word for this now). In the past when Elfa was active, this system was not in place, so she does not have this formal recognition in the new system (unless it is possible for her to be grandfathered in?)
Direct Invitations:
Ashna Khovr (as Elfa knows her) Solus
Nireth Alec and fam Lady Alec

Elfa: "My friends keep leaving me..."
Indirect Invitations:
(People of interest that Elfa doesn't know about but who may be interested in attending. Just tagging you here to make sure you see it.)
