Carpe Noctem, also "Seize the Night," is a Holiday commemorating the deceased. As macabre as that may sound to many off-islanders, the celebration itself is joyous and anything but grim. In appreciation for lost souls, many people offer gifts, praises, and song and dance.

For Manta Carlos, this event is held in the forest around a large bonfire. There are even rumors that searching citizens may be able to see or communicate with the dead in the flames.

Displayed on tables around the perimeter are hot cider and harvest foods. People are encouraged to dance, laugh, and rejoice rather than feel sad by their losses.

The Bonfire is an ICC and forum event spanning from November 4th to the 5th and located at the edge of the forest. You may join the official thread here. If anyone happens to wander off by themselves beyond the bonfire, we encourage you to create a thread and prefix it with "event" and tag it with "the Bonfire."

During the Bonfire, everyone was attacked by monsters that seemed to come from the fire itself. The police and ambulances were called. Later, the remaining people around were herded to Starlight Academy's Ballroom for safe keeping.

There are reports of monsters cropping up all around the island, but thus far there hasn't been any casualties.
