Our first stop this week was on Ignis Fatuus grid which has always been a favorite for Safari, since Max's regions combine extremely beautiful fantasy with an elegant gallic style. Coralys is a recent addition to the dozens of builds, often made in combination with Max's partner Nadir Rae but this one is a solo effort. As always the address is at the end of the post.

| Nadir and Max |
There were about ten of us Safarians on Coralys, together with the welcome company of Vlad and Vanessa VanHelsing of Bloodmoon grid, always nice that the francophones support each other's events. A special shout out to Nadir who has a long standing commitment to DJing in SL on Wednesdays but who always seems to manage to be there for us, and of course, Prodyck Theas who livestreamed our event on Twitch. All this, plus the wonderful Roff Kisses who took a bunch of lovely pictures and shared them with us on the HG Safari group on Facebook. We are surrounded by excellence!
Forest Azure: pondering
Thirza Ember: we DARE - we are very brave look at the shoes of James - clearly we are very daring people
Max Well: This region was built from an image found on the internet To enhance your visit, we offer a little treasure hunt.
nadir rae: it's good max
Tina.Bey[es→en]: in what language?
Max Well: To find out what to do, we need to question the guardian Arkhavel.
Forest Azure: the strong silent type
Thirza Ember: hey Roff!
Angelic Kisses: Hello everyone :)
Thirza Ember: oh I see - need to click on Arkhavel and ask a question
 |
| Arkhavel |
Arkhavel: I am Arkhavel, the Guardian of the Forgotten Flame...The Flame is an ancient force... fragmented by time.
Arkhavel: Listen carefully...
Find the vial of BREATH that gives life,
Find the vial of STONE that shapes kingdoms,
Find the vial of ASH that preserves memories,
And find the door that leads to the FLAME.
Forest Azure: preserves memories .. i could use that!
Angelic Kisses: this should be fun!
Max Well: We now know that we need to find 3 vials. They are scattered around this region.
nadir rae[fr→en]: everyone in the shower ! shampoing, crème, et parfum = 3 flacons
Prodyck Theas: there the video live >> https://www.twitch.tv/prodyck
James Atlloud: OH we are on TV!!! :)
Taarna Welles: My pixels are washed out
Max Well: We have electricity now on Ignis Fatuus. We no longer need endless stairs. The teleporters are working, let's take advantage of it before I forget to pay the electricity bill.
Yay instead of stairs, we just used these handy and very effective TPs to move around. A big group often messes with the efficacy of teleports, but this time we got very lucky and all went smooth as silk.
nadir rae[fr→en]: max and the stairs...
Taarna Welles: lol
Dings Digital: hehe
Max Well: To find the first vial, we'll take the boat. Sit in it and then click on the boat to begin the journey.
Forest Azure: thirza stop hopping, we will sink!
James Atlloud: I hope the boat is strong!
Tina Bey: Did we forget something?
James Atlloud: so many stairs - oh my knees!!
Taarna Welles: are your pixels broken James?
Dings Digital: great textures and lights
Vlad.Helsing[fr→en]: have you seen the first bottle?
Yara Eilde: Yes I have Cendre
Max Well: Here's the first vial. To find the others, we need to get back in the boat.
Forest Azure: it tastes ashy
Thirza Ember: barbecue flavor
James Atlloud: I received the cendre
Max Well: Let's now go to the end of this bridge to find the second vial.
eva Nowicka: on the other dock
Taarna Welles: Love your new face James
James Atlloud: ty - it seemed the thing to do
Thirza Ember: it's lovely here - what a great idea to have a hunt here
Angelic Kisses: this is a lovely region
nadir rae: merci... I didn't do anything for once lol
Max Well: This door can only be opened if we possess all three vials.
Thirza Ember: oh and we only have one vial so far... must keep hunting!
Max Well: We can take a well-deserved break on this bench before resuming the adventure.
Thirza Ember: vanessa looks so cute sitting there!
Max Well: Look, a tower. We're in luck, the door opens...
Thirza Ember: is it safe? oh we can walk on water we must be divine
Max Well: We're in luck, we've just found the second vial.
Thirza Ember: haha i just got the joke about James having a new head
Tina Bey[es→en]: what beautiful sculptures!!
Dings Digital: the power of pierre
Max Well: We need to return to the island to continue our adventure.
Max Well: What is this strange building? Perhaps we'll find the last vial here. Let's go in quietly. There might be a ghost haunting these parts.
Forest Azure: ooh
Max Well: Ah, there it is at last, the third vial.
Forest Azure: another thing that won't come loose!
Thirza Ember: There are so many bottles
Max Well: We can now open the mysterious door we saw earlier.
Dings Digital: the whole region is a wonderful play with color and light and experiences
Taarna Welles: There is so much detail to explore. Love it
Thirza Ember: I think these bottles are going to James' head
James Atlloud: receive it.. wear it!!
Max Well: Finally the door opens. Perhaps we will discover a treasure that will make us rich.
Dings Digital: et voila, I could need some extra money, lol
Max Well: Oasis... Let's proceed cautiously through this forest. There might be a tiger prowling about.Max Well: Finally, the treasure is here. We're lucky; we arrived before the pirates. You can carry the flame if you wish.. Right-click on the item in the inventory and select Add.
Max Well: We can now finish the tour by clicking on the orb in the center to enjoy our treasure. Will we offer the treasure to the Goddess of this place or keep it for ourselves? We can ponder this while dancing downstairs.
Thirza Ember: indoor fireworks are usually dangerous - but not here... now we can drink all the spirits in the vials!
Dings Digital: yay
Taarna Welles: Burb
Forest Azure: phew! /me feels so much lighter without that bottle
nadir rae[fr→en]: please open your audio players, I mix for you live
Taarna Welles: Max.Well, who made all the lovely art assets?
Max Well: the buildings are made with prims and the region was inspired by a photo that you can see at the arrival point
Nadir Rae: Max collects pictures. He finds a common thread, be inspired by it and the dream arrives
Max Well[fr→en]: yes I made the buildings first
Thirza Ember: I think it's impressive because you have created a whole story here, in one region - doesn't need to be a 4x4 VAR for you to make a rich and interesting adventure for visitors
nadir rae[fr→en]: it always builds in prim, then mesh for the rest
James Atlloud: This build is so light and uplifting - a fun choice for Ignus Fatuus
Thirza Ember: an adventure and a dance the perfect cardio workout for the Safari group!
Forest Azure: and a boat ride! two boat rides even
Dings Digital: and a heavy shopping bag
Taarna Welles: I hope to come back this summer to explore more of this lovely Coralys.
Max Well[fr→en]: all the vials in the building next door are freebies
Thirza Ember: nice to see everyone and to see this wonderful build - congratulations Max and thank you for welcoming us here
Max Well[fr→en]: it is with great pleasure that we received you
Forest Azure: it was great, thank you so much! except for the sticky bottle of course ::)
Yara Eilde: Thank you Max
Dings Digital: this was a nice tour, great experience. thank you
Angelic Kisses: 0000yes.0iyes...it was lovely
Tina Bey: hermoso lugar!!!
