The Gallows Family Foundation is pleased to announce the Twilight Isle Development Endowment (TIDE). A fund established by former Duel of Magic Coordinator Claire Gallows in the wake of her retirement from Duel of Magic, this fund is intended to foremost form and develop a school of magical arts as well as fund further development on Twilight Isle, including but not limited to housing, commerce, and supporting infrastructure.
With the school set to open in late summer, the Endowment intends to support additional construction which is already underway, converting the seldom used Magi Market into a focal point of the south-central part of Twilight Isle. The newly ordained Twilight Market will connect by a seamless portal to Rhydin City for easy access to magical wares for even the most mundane users. The Twilight Market will also provide a one stop shop for school supplies for students of the yet to be revealed school as well as offer a safe haven and place of comaraderie for magic users of any background. From the Twilight Market, it is only a short trip to the school, the dueling venue, and more.
A study in fulminology, the market’s layout is much akin to a branching arc of lightning. A wide primary boulevard is packed with freshly remodeled storefronts for businesses both mundane and magical. Narrower offshoots from the main street are home to open air stalls, smaller shops, and even modest apartments. Through it all, visitors can find owners hawking wares for everything from potion ingredients, magical creatures, and wands to tomes, candy, clothing, and more.
Starting March 1st, 2020, available retail space will be open to citizens of Rhydin City for leasing. Those with existing storefronts in the city are encouraged to explore Twilight Market’s specialized Mimic Storefront, allowing business owners to imprint their existing business’s appearance upon their chosen location, the doors of which can either open to the shop’s counterpart in Rhydin City or to a secondary location local to Twilight Market. Interested patrons are encouraged to contact Jexart Fizzleboot, Lead Leasing Coordinator for Twilight Market.
