Cultural Year of the Dragon

The Cultural Year of the Dragon arises from the mutual initiative between the United Republic of Obscurium and the Principality of Hershwell. Atlia and then Lower Isturus were integrated into the planning started between Obscurium and Hershwell to have activities related to dragons throughout the year, arising from the fact that 2024 is the Year of the Dragon according to the Chinese zodiac, which begins on the day of today, Saturday, 10 February, and traditionally consists of several days of celebrations.

On 11 February at 10:10 AM an opening presentation was held from the Obscurium Discord server, broadcast on CTAVA.
