I'd just like to add it was Kaitheel who requested the lanterns for Frostfell, actually!  He and Feconix are the masterminds behind the majority of it.  <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

I love all who had a hand in it Truely, I didn't like the time I spent in that city. The ONLY thing I coveted was those lamps and now they shall be mine.

I have coveted the lanterns, too.  I love love love love them in Darklight Wood.  I love them in all the places they have shown up.  I want them. I want lots of them.  I want to have a house full of nothing bu... okay too far.<img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

It looks like no Frostfell goodies this year for our party.  <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

I still have boxes filled with raws from last year, hope they all work again this year <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/e8a506dc4ad763aca51bec4ca7dc8560.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" width="15" height="15" />

sigh I had just deleted two full mules worth of Frostfell raws right before RoK came out. <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> I just had no where to put them, and had to get rid of the char's. cry Guess I'll be spending the first week harvesting again.

Ah yes, fond memories of last year's mayhem running around the Frostfell village beating people off with my staff while trying to harvest the nodes needed for the crafting supplies. Note to self: remember to set the alarm clock for VERY early Sunday morning while all the peeps who went to Xmas parties the night before are still sleeping it off !! But, seriously, many thanks to both Feconix and Kaitheel for the great job they did last year and their efforts again this year to give us a spectacular way to celebrate the Holiday Season. Job Well Done and 2 Thumbs Up !!!
