Special Event Week: Competition of the Creators

“Welcome, traveler. You have your invitation then? Good…good. Your skills caught the eyes of the island gods, and they are quite happy for you to join in the competition.

Others have already arrived and begun their designs. If you want to garner a foothold in this competition, I beg you to move with haste. Time is limited.

I look forward to seeing your work and your part of our legacy at Rust Empires.”
