Behind the Design: Sky: Children of the Light

  

CELEBRATE DAYS OF FEAST

Prepare to don your holiday apparel in Sky! With many new winter-themed cosmetics, accessories, and props added this year, players will have many options to choose from to build their perfect holiday outfit.
 
As with all of our holiday-related mini-events, our intention is to make this event inclusive for all types of players. We wanted to design several kinds of items in order to offer more variety in the available options. While many players may not want or be able to obtain all items during this event, it’s our hope that there might be something for everyone to express themselves this year.

Players can check out the holiday decorations by visiting the ‘Secret’ area on the ground floor of the Vault of Knowledge realm, where a friendly spirit will await to swift you and your friends through the barrier to join in on the celebrations in the Office. Don’t forget to check the daily quests before making your trip! There will be some Days of Feasts quests you can complete for regular candles.
 
During the duration of this event, a Days of Feast spirit in the Secret area will appear with a friendship tree full of festive items that will cost in-game currency. Please note that these specific Days of Feast items for in-game currency will only be accessible by interacting with the friendship tree of the spirit in the Secret level.
 
Here’s what items will be available for regular candles and hearts:
 
Days of Feast Cape - 65 Candles
 
This “fur” lined red cape is sure to keep you warm when you show off your coolest tricks on the ice-skating rink. Grab a cape of your own for 65 candles.

Feast Necktie -15 Hearts
 
Flaunt festivity with the Feast Necktie — a delicate holly neck slot item that you can exchange for 15 hearts.

Days of Feast Table - 150 Candles
 
This premium prop works just like a chat bench, allowing players to sit and chat with each other in style. You can snag your own Days of Feast table from the Days of Feast staff spirit for 150 candles.
