The quest for the divine emerald and at least one of the two remaining

sands elimination quests will (as Aldaron has posted) take place this

weekend. However, the amethyst quest and the Ordination itself, will be

postponed until NEXT WEEKEND. This is both to avoid a clash with the

Thanksgiving weekend and to allow all those final contenders to be available

and fully prepared for the big event.

Thus, depending on whether the victor in the emerald quest currently

underway is an existing or new contender, we will know by the end of this

weekend the final competitors for Ordination. And the amethyst quest

will begin at 9pm by the Avalon clock on SATURDAY DECEMBER 1st. Any

current contender should let me know if there's a problem with this date.

Good luck to you all in your contest for the emerald.
