November 2025 All Guilds Meeting Summary
Here is the summary for the 187th All Guilds Meeting, moderated by Claidi Song, along with the raw and cleansed chatlogs!
Claidi announced that for various reasons she will need to step down from moderation after December. If you are interested in moderating the meetings after December, please get in contact via the Cyan Chat or MOULa Events Discord servers.
Contents
OpenUru
☛ Descent should be on schedule an early November test on Minkata Alpha: all the elevators should now be working. Credits go to Ametist and Ehren for improvements on various aspects of the Age. Things are unlikely to work past the elevators, but it will be a chance for suggesting visual changes.
The next update for Minkata Prime is locked down and should be ready for testing soon. Prime has been down for a while as the database required rebuilding, as a number of game files that were not meant to be included had to be removed.
☛ The Ae’gura Messengers Pub has undergone a vast overhaul that should reduce lag, and should also be ready for testing.
Events in the Cavern
☛ On Monday 6, Skyisblu shared her recipe of squash gnocchi à la courge. The Cooking Sessions are on the first Monday of the month at 12:00 KIT, via Twitch, in the Guild of Caterers’ Hood. You can find past recipes and recordings at Skyisblu’s blog and YouTube channel.
☛ IwonK will host a Wonky Talk (on her Twitch channel) on Friday 14 at 15:00 KIT in the Guild of Cookies’ Hood by the heek table. This month’s topic will be “Spooky Games”. Feel free to suggest interesting games she could talk (and draw) about. As always, there will be cookies!
Besides streaming, IwonK is making some games of her own as a year-long gamedev challenge, using Bitsy; you can find them at her itch.io page.
She is also working with Kefrith on an idea originating from the Mysterium Discord: a Mysterium-like online event. The work title is “Rivenium“, they are looking for ideas, events and presentations or panels. If you are interested, you can find IwonK or Kefrith on the Mysterium Discord, at the dedicated forum.
☛ Every Saturday, Ereshkigal is hosting an Ancient Stories event at 15:00 KIT in Chiso Preniv, reading folktales, translated ancient texts, historical fiction from all over the ancient world, as well as the occasional historical-inspired fan fiction.
☛ Babbel will host her next classical music program in the Hall of Kings in Ae’gura, on Monday 17 at 12:00 KIT. The theme for this month will be “When the leaves fall…”
☛ Augur’s Speculative Fiction Book Club will discuss their current book, Ready Player One by Ernest Cline, in Nezetahn(1)’s Hood’s Eder Delin, on November 15 at 12:30 KIT. Everyone is welcome to discuss their opinions on the book, using either voice or text chat.
☛ Brooketh presented the Competitive Myst Online Group, hosting an Ahyoheek game every Saturday at 21:00 KIT in the Competitive Myst Online Hood. All players are welcome, regardless of skill level. If you don’t know how to play, they will teach you. Or you can just hang out and observe. Voice chat is encouraged, but not required; both are used.
On the Open Cave shard, Ayohiker holds an analogous event every Monday at 14:00 KIT in the Ayohikers’ hood.
☛ Prad announced that the revived Cavern Choir selected three songs: “We Wish You a Merry Christmas”, “Oratorio de Noël: Tollite Hostias” and “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”. Participants are asked to send their recording by the first week of December, as the plan is to perform at Christmas. If you are interested, or need assistance with recording, please contact Babbeltje40 (aka Vrouwdinges) or Prad (KI #08406189).
☛ The Cavern Tours are on hold until late 2026.

D’ni Language Classes
Claidi had two updates on behalf of Shokhootahn Rehn, one for the D’ni Language Classes and one for the Story Nights. Two more students will start taking the classes this month!
Visitors are asked to not post pellet points into the hood imager: one of his former students and a close friend, Yutiel Yoshi, who passed away in 2018, is listed there. He has refrained from posting pellets to maintain her name at the top, as a form of memorial.
D’ni Language Classes schedule (click to expand)
- Those who would like to attend the lessons should contact Rehn, preferably on Discord (r’Tayrtahn#1317), or via KImail (#80428). Be sure to include your KI number, so that Rehn can send you a reply!
- The Guild of Instructors’ Hood will be open and public unless a class is in session. Classes are individual.
- Daytime openings are on Monday to Friday, at 10:00, 11:00 or 12:00 KIT, depending on the student’s schedule.
- Evening openings are on Monday to Friday, at 20:00, 21:00 or 22:00 KIT, depending on the student’s schedule.
- Daytime availability is subject to change with little or no notice. Last-minute changes to class times will be announced via Magic Bot (#27527) or Mimi Bot (#71459); to be notified, add both as buddies, then PM them “advert”.
R’Tayrtahn’s Story Nights
Story Night Europe and Original Story Night will conclude the story of young Atrus as told in the novel Myst: The Book of Atrus; after that, they will begin the story from the first Myst game. Eventually they will cover all of the books and games, as well as the three human attempts at the restoration of D’ni.
R’Tayrtahn records videos of the sessions (via an avatar named “I’m a bot, do not message”), that he will eventually upload to his YouTube channel. Be careful if you PM r’Tay or the bot during the events, as messages will be visible in the videos.
Videos now also come with auto translated captions in French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Polish, Portuguese and Spanish. Automatic translation often has trouble with words like “D’ni” or “linking books”, so your mileage may vary.
Story Nights schedule (click to expand)
- Story Nights are held in Tsahno’s Hood every Saturday, gathering at the fountain at around 23:00 KIT, with the story starting at about 23:30 KIT.
- For Story Nights – Europe, the gatherings are on Saturday starting at 13:30 KIT, with the story starting at about 14:00 KIT.
- On All Guilds Meeting days, the event will begin at 14:30 KIT or 30 minutes after the meeting, whichever is later.
- The stories are told using voice chat, so you will need to have your speakers, headphones or KI devices on. If you would like a reminder, please send r’Tayrtahn (#58324) a KImail with your KI number included in the text, so that he can add you to his buddies list.
Miscellanea
☛ This month, the Age Expeditions in Deep Island will visit Paah’kweh and Sonavio, by the late BobLishman; then the entries from the First Rapid Age Development contest held in 2008. In the Open Cave, they will tackle the Fifth Journey, in Er’cana and Ahnonay.
That was it for this month. Please consider donating to keep the Cavern open!
The next All Guilds Meeting is planned for Saturday, December 6 (Leevobro 9) at 13:00 KIT.
Until then!
