Amberlight canals
What it is
A lantern-lit canal town that never quite sleeps, boardwalks over dark
water, paper lanterns strung everywhere.
How to get there
In the Harbour Market District, find the quiet side canal with a
lantern-lit skiff moored and waiting (press shift enter there) and board
it. You arrive at South Mooring. The same skiff, from inside Amberlight
Canals, takes you back to the Harbour Market District.
Places
South Mooring is where you arrive. North of it is the Lantern Quarter, a
night market square where Mask-maker Talia keeps her stall. Boatman Rosa
waits by his skiff at the South Mooring dock. Cross the main canal (shift
enter to talk to Rosa and board, or wade the shallow water yourself) to
reach the Glassworks Quarter on the north bank: Glassblower Enzo's
workshop, a quiet diving cove, and a shuttered door in the far corner.
Gathering
The sandy bank near the south side of the canal: shift+enter, no tool
needed, silica sand. The diving cove beside the Glassworks Quarter:
shift+enter, no tool needed, lagoon pearls (lower chance). Both have a
short cooldown between tries and a daily limit.
Trade
Glassblower Enzo buys silica sand and lagoon pearls for ln point, capped
per day. One of the two goods pays 50 percent extra each week; ask him
which.
The lantern festival
A world event on a schedule: paper lanterns bloom bright along every canal
for a few minutes and gathering is easier while it lasts. Check
/amberlight for when the next one is expected.
The lantern trail
Five hidden landmarks scattered around Amberlight Canals. Look at each one
(shift+enter) to collect it. Once you have found all five, the Sunken
Glass Atelier in the Glassworks Quarter opens to you, and you earn a
title.
The wishing canal
Offer a lagoon pearl (shift+enter at the Wishing Canal, or use one while
standing there) toward your Amberlight Favor. Offerings are used up, not
refunded; milestones at 5, 15 and 30 wishes unlock a keepsake charm, a
title and a trophy.
The masked regatta
A three part quest chain from Mask-maker Talia at her stall: bring her
silica sand, then speak with Boatman Rosa about the old regatta route,
then, once you have opened the Sunken Glass Atelier, tell her. Each part
pays a little ln point on top of its own keepsake, title or trophy.
Canal errands
Ask Glassblower Enzo for an errand and he hands you a pouch of glass beads
to carry to Mask-maker Talia. Deliver it within about a minute and a half
for a small ln point payment. Limited tries per day.
Command
/amberlight (or /canals) opens the Amberlight Canals menu from anywhere:
the guide, your Lantern Trail progress, your Amberlight Favor, the Lantern
Festival status, and Amberlight records. It is also listed in the village
"More to do" menu.
