Rawr!
Final Fantasy has two events currently happening, and another starting up the DAY these two end.
Currently, until Dec. 31st, there are the events, in game, of The Starlight Celebration and The Maiden's Rhapsody happening for people to enjoy.
The Starlight Celebration is the 'Christmas' themed event, which starts in Limsa Lominsa and sends you on a quest chain for the children of the world to renew an old custom of bell ringing. The reward for this is a set of reindeer antlers, complete with a big red glowing nose, helm, and some hoof gloves and shoes.
The Maiden's Rhapsody is a little more involved, but is basically a tribute to Final Fantasy XI, with music, flashbacks, and even a character from the first online mmorpg from SquareEnix. You will end up helping someone get her memories back by competing with her in FATEs which sport battle music from FFXI and at the end of it all, your reward will be some good fuzzy feelings, nostalgia, and a red Samurai outfit.
The 31st also marks the first day of a new event, Heavensturn, which features the antics of the 'Monkey' and the gods of Eorzea coming to together to decide the theme of the next year. It will last until Jan. 14th.
Of course, Maiden's Rhapsody has been out for a while, and Anima Weapons came out almost at the same time as The Starlight Celebration, so there has been plenty to do, even besides the 3.1 content that just came out in Nov. SquareEnix seems to love dropping the tidbits of content, and I love that they do.
And also of course, the seasonal events, while reoccurring, are different each year, with new rewards and storylines, so don't miss out on them if you can help it! (though, if you do, you can just buy the rewards for a couple dollars in the Mog Station next year. Final Fantasy likes to add content, not take away, and I appreciate this sooooo much. :) )
So get out there and enjoy and remember, the 31st is the magic date to get two events in by, and prepare for the third :)
Rawr!
