File:Demeter logo.jpg

During the event "Demeter's Name" there is war raging on the islands and many people are on the run. Help them and be kind to those who are in need. Go and feed the young as well as the old. The goddess Demeter will shower you with rewards for your generosity and hospitality.

During the event you are owner of a tavern wherein you will have the opportunity to serve meals! You will be able to use 8 different types of provisions to unlock prizes that will help you dominate your enemy. You can collect provisions by performing every day one of the following in game actions: attacking and defending, constructing buildings, researching, casting divine powers or recruiting units.

Once you have enough provision you can mix them together on the main event screen, and you will be rewarded with a specific bonus. The served meal for that combination will then be stored in your Book of Meals for future reference.

In addition to the rewards you receive from serving meals, you will also have the opportunities to compete against your fellow players in the daily rankings. The top player of the day will be given the Master Innkeeper award, and the top 4 players of the event will be given the prestigious Lord of Innkeepers award!

Serving meals

In order to serve a meal you must first gather three provisions. It does not matter which provision you use, and you may use more than one of the same type. Once you have the necessary ingredients you may put them on the plates by dragging them on an empty plate on the main event screen. Once all 3 plates are filled you can click "Serve meal".

After you click "Serve meal" your ingredients will be combined, and you will receive a reward from the guest. You may use the reward immediately, or store it in your inventory if you have space. You will not be able to serve another meal until you have collected your reward.

How to collect provisions

You can find provisions for your meals just by playing the game. Below are some common actions that will award provisions:

• Attacking and defending
• Recruiting units
• Research
• Construction of buildings
• Casting of spells

The amount of free provisions you can receive daily is limited to 10. You can buy as many additional provisions as you want by spending gold, although the price of each ingredient will increase with each purchase by the base price (and reset at midnight).

Base price in gold	40	40	40	40	60	60	90	90

Book of Meals

The Book of Meals will automatically save your combinations of provision so that you can easily reference back to them! Meals will be ordered by the type of reward, and you will be able to filter through your provisions by availability or needed provision.

If you wish to unlock an unknown meal without experimenting, you may do so for a small amount of gold.

Rankings

All players can compete against each other in terms of served meals on a daily basis. Every time you serve a meal, you will get a random amount of Hospitality Points (up to 10). The ranking is based on these points. No matter which meal you create, you always have the same chance to get points.

As soon as you serve the first meal on a day you will be listed in the daily ranking. The winner of the day (rank 1) will earn an award and an effect. Every day at 8pm the ranking gets evaluated and reset. The rewards get handed out as soon as the evaluation is finished.
