As mentioned, the Thinned Festiveil takes place around the Ravenwood Guardian Tree and there are interesting ghostly forms hanging nearby.

Addy speaks to Alice and learns of her sorrow.

Alice is missing her children and wants to know what happened to them. Addy is more than happy to help a grieving mother.

She’s first led to a crypt and decides to enter it.

Addy finds a forgotten sarcophagus that turns out to belong to DEIMOS, one of Alice’s children.

Next, she follows the hints to a group of glowing guys.

Addy is able to interact with one of them. His name is FREDDY.

Upon further questioning, she learns that he too is one of Alice’s children.

Next Addy is led to an island and on the island is a lone tombstone. It belongs to ANN, another one of Alice’s children.

If Ann is the teacher who inspired many, why is her tombstone hidden away and hard to reach?

Alice’s next child, and possibly last, is going to be a bit of a challenge. Addy got this moodlet upon being near EDITH.

There is a well where you can essentially wish for courage to help with Edith. Let’s just say that Addy didn’t get the expected results and move along. Nothing to see here, folks!

She decides to go BIG instead of going home and tries to talk to Edith anyway.

It appears that Edith is open to chatting but Addy feels like treading carefully is a very good idea!

Upon further questioning, she learns that EDITH is indeed one of Alice’s children.

Time to return to Alice and share the news, not sure if it would be considered good or not. But… the event is over and nobody is by the Guardian Tree. Boo! Guess Addy will have to come back later.

The very next Thinned Festiveil …

Addy heads over as soon as she gets home from work. Alice is there! Time to share what she learned about Alice’s children.

Addy’s reward is the satisfaction of helping Alice and … Alice’s Guardian Tree is available to Addy! There are several interactions available but she’ll explore these options later on. Maybe when she understands what these actually mean.

Alice looks quite happy now and so does Addy.
