Event:

The ancient Greeks held a grand Flower Festival during Anthesteria (2nd and 3rd month of the Gregorian calendar) to worship the God of Wine - Dionysus. Dionysus, the God of Wine, was also the God of Theatre. In honor of this, the Manor Owner is holding its first Theatre Competition in the Manor. During the event, players will receive amazing rewards by participating in rehearsals and collecting Creativity.


 * [Theater Competition - Rehearsals] Log in during the event to participate in the Theatre Competition held by the Manor Owner. Complete tasks for a chance to participate in script rehearsals. 5 random characters will be chosen as your actors (the Dream Witch not included). After assigning roles to them and rehearsing, they can participate in the Drama evaluation process. During the event, there will be rehearsals for 5 acts. Rehearsal preparation time for each act lasts for 2 days, and the rehearsal's script can be submitted before the specified time. Once the submission time is up, the rehearsal's script can no longer be submitted, but players can still continue to complete tasks and collect Creativity. The Manor Owner will select the winners from all submitted scripts and present 3 awards respectively. Third Prize - the Aeschylus Award, and its corresponding prize, Abyss Treasure; Second Prize - the Sophocles Award, and its corresponding prize, A Costume Unlock Card; First Prize - the Euripides Award, and its corresponding prize, S Costume Unlock Card. Rewards will be sent via Mail. Event time: 09:00:00 Jan. 28 - 23:59:59 Feb. 6 (server time).
 * [Theater Competition - Official Performance] During the event, players will be able to collect lots of Creativity by completing all the rehearsal tasks. According to the amount of Creativity collected by the player, the Manor Owner will reward players with Emotes, Graffiti, Event Portraits, Photographer's Event Costume, Gamekeeper's Pet, etc. Once all Creativity is obtained, players can participate in the Main Event of the Theatre Competition. If players miss the first 5 rehearsal tasks, they can participate in Matches and exchange Deduction Points for Creativity. In addition to a chance to obtain the Aeschylus Award, Sophocles Award and Euripides Award, every player participating in the Main Event of the competition will receive a participation award. The final winner will be awarded with the Dionysus Award, the highest obtainable honor, and will also obtain all A Costumes, A Costume Unlock Cards, S Costume Unlock Cards from S1-S3 Essence.

Special Mention:

During the Call of the Abyss II - Global Festival event, we discovered that a small number of players are taking advantage of bugs, using external plugins, using underhanded methods to obtain high scores, not playing properly, etc. in-game, and this has greatly affected the game experience for other players. Subsequently, we will increase penalties for these acts, including but not limited to: Points deduction, club disqualification, bans, and other penalties in order to provide a fair game environment for all players. At the same time, we also hope that you can help us to use the in-game report system when you encounter such behavior, and work with us to maintain order at the manor.
