Something’s gone wrong (and maybe a little right?) in the heart of New Ognos. A portal has opened in the middle of Pyronmouth tied to an ancient nursery known only as the '''Wildkitchen'''. While we’re unable to step through it, nothing else seems to be having the same problem. The portal has begun spitting out strange hybrids known as '''Harvestlings'''—creatures that are part animal, part plant... or part ''food?''

From caramel owls to squash wolves, these weirdos are cropping up fast and it's up to us to round them up! Every post you write helps contain the chaos. Welcome to harvest season—it’s gonna be a wild one!

== IN CHARACTER ==

* The portal resists our attempts to enter; it may open in future though! 👀
* Harvestlings have been sighted across the island: nesting in tree hollows, rooting into the sand, hoarding breadsticks
* Some settlers have been assigned Barns to help safely contain the Harvestlings
* A previously unexplored island off the coast has been designated as a sanctuary for captured Harvestlings. Players can participate in catalysts and mini-games set on this island both during and after the event! The community will vote to name the Sanctuary Island at the end of the event

== OUT OF CHARACTER ==

* You earn '''1 Harvestling''' for every '''500 words written''' (cumulative)
** Example: Write 650 words, then 370 words = 1,020 words = 2 Harvestlings
* You begin the event with a Barn featuring 3 stalls and a random S-Tier Harvestling
** When your Barn is full, you can Swap one of your current Harvestlings to the Sanctuary to make space or Release the new one to the Sanctuary
* Harvestlings in your Barn generate '''Scraps''' every time you post. Scraps are a special event currency used to buy upgrades and rewards in the [https://kinrpg.com/markets/harvestshop.php Harvest Market].
* At the end of the event, you may keep 1 Harvestling permanently (unless you pay to keep more). All others will be released to the Sanctuary where they'll give you a final reward and become species available in future encounters
* Your count is automatically tracked on the [https://kinrpg.com/wildharvest.php Wild Harvest Tracker]

=== EVENT TIMING ===

* '''August 3rd – October 4th''': Harvestlings and Scraps can be earned
* '''September 14th – 28th''': POSTING PARTY!
** During this two-week window, all Harvestling and Scrap rewards are doubled; it will be a great chance to catch up or stockpile for final purchases!
* '''October 11th''': Harvest Market closes
