MEMORANDUM

TO: All Knights

FROM: Spiral HQ

SUBJECT: Taking Another Cue From Nature

In order that we may better survive while on Cradle, Spiral HQ science teams continue to gather data on ways to blend in with local flora and fauna. Study and analysis are ongoing, and as part of that, we ask for your assistance again with field testing.

Volunteers for OPERATION MIMIC TWO will receive, as part of the Vile Prize Box, items that mimic some of the most toxic creatures on this planet. For example:

* Venom Fiend Wings

* Venom Fiend Mail

* Venom Fiend Mask

* Venomous Aura

* Vile Helms and Armors

* Vile Accessories

SUMMARY: OPERATION MIMIC is go! Please remember to report your findings to Spiral HQ.

Hail, knights!

The cosmos briefly swings into balance. The Strangers have brought forth celestially-themed offerings in the Equinox Prize Box, available to you through September 30th:

• Celestial Orbitgun
• Celestial Vortex
• Celestial Saber
• Celestial Shield
• Orbit Aura
• Solar and Cosmic Plasma Wings
• Celestial Dragon/Valkyrie Wings
• Celestial Nav Helm and Suit
• Galactic Guardian Helm and Vest
• Celestial Accessories
• Unique Variant Tickets

Since the troubles with the last Tortodrone Migration, Spiral HQ established a monitoring station in the Ancient Grove. Recon Knights there report an increase in activity and suspect the Fiends have returned to the Grim Gates. Spiral HQ is sending you to investigate!

Gather intel and Fiendish Glyphs from Fiends in the Clockworks. Explore the Ancient Grove and collect Ancient Shell materials. Craft new Tortodrone handguns at the mysterious alchemy machine!

ATTENTION KNIGHTS

Black kats are once again storming the Moorcroft Manor Archives and consuming the precious tomes within! We need all knights of rank 4-1 and greater to gear up and retrieve Ancient Pages from these nefarious creatures. The event will run through August 28th.

Accept the Kataclysmic Confrontation prestige mission and/or fight through kat levels in the Clockworks to find black kats. Then, visit Montague in Moorcroft Manor, or the href="https://wiki.spiralknights.com/Mysterious_Alchemy_Machine">Mysterious Alchemy Machine in Haven, with your collection of Ancient Pages, to craft some Kat related gear.

If you dare to perform a Dark Ritual and survive the encounter, you may find yourself in possession of a Black Kat Cowl or a Wicked Whisker which allow you to craft the following gear:

• Kat Claw cloak, mail, raiment
• Kat Hiss cloak, mail, raiment
• Kat Eye cloak, mail, raiment
• Black Kat cloak, mail, raiment, hood, mask

If you have participated in a previous Kataclysmic Confrontation and still have Ancient Page tokens, they are still valid! Ancient Page tokens do not expire.

During this event, Spiral HQ is offering the Katastrophe Returns Prize Box. Contents include:

- Kat Suit Costumes

- Shadow Armors and Helms

- Shadow Accessories

Our new Kat Forecasting Intern predicts that the Kataclysmic Prize Box will run through September 18. Best of luck, knights!

Warning knights!

We have confirmed that the Apocrean Harvester has returned again. Spiral HQ needs your help!

From now through July 24, travel onto the Grasping Plateau full of trapped souls and phantom-like monsters. In a maze-like graveyard, knights will find the Apocrea trapping and collecting souls. This sinister being will pursue any who enter the Grasping Plateau hoping to add to the collection. Work together to free souls and find Apocrean Sigil tokens which can be used at the Obelisk of Creation to craft Obsidian weapons and the Grasping Aura.

You don't want to get caught out there alone--definitely bring your friends with you on this mission, and try not to lose sight of them! Click below for a detailed brief.
