This is not a role play post.
However as events on Alqualonde at the moment affect the posting of role play here, it has been decided to share these events. After many years and much love devoted to it from residents, merchants, role players and visitors, our beloved Alqualonde the Swanhaven is being redesigned and redeveloped. Building in preparation for this has been in progress for some time, however the time has now come to put things into place.
As you will appreciate this is not an overnight process and is very time consuming if it is to be done well. So with this in mind there is currently a two week hiatus in the role play while the new Alqualonde is built. All other regular events and meetings are also in hiatus during this time.
Tonight was the beginning of this process. As you all know, to rebuild, first what exists must come down. So it was with mixed emotions tonight the existing palace was demolished. It really was the end of an era.

| Last glimpse of a beloved home. Demolitions charges are set. |

| She starts to fall.. |
 |
| ..and fall.. |
 |
| Going... |
 |
| ... going.. |
 |
| ... going.. going.. |
 |
| Almost gone.. |
 |
| The towers fall... |
 |
| Timberrrrr... |
 |
| Only rubble remaining.. |
 |
| The site is cleared and leveled. |
Over the next two weeks, a new palace will be put in place, a new harbour will be built, the new city will take shape. Today was the end of an era. We all know that when one era ends, another begins. We invite you to continue to walk with us on our journey.
The Fellowship of the Fourth Age.
