    Event Testing – New Life Festival
    The New Life Festival returns to Tamriel! Breda and Petronius are back to help you embark on a festive adventure across the world.
    • As always, the first New Life quest you complete each day will award you Event Tickets (3, this year) and any completed New Life quests will award you a New Life Festival Box.
      • This box contains an assortment of valuable and flavorful items, along with a chance for motif pages, style pages, furnishings, or special charity writs (Deep Winter or Imperial).
      • Added to the Festival boxes this year are a chance to get a tradeable page of the new Evergreen armor style.
    • The Impresario has brought back all of 2022’s morphing collectibles for the Soulfire Dragon Illusion. She also offers bound pages for the Evergreen armor style for 5 tickets each, as well as the returning Powderwhite Coney pet.
