The Serin Cross-Country Race was one of the first Herald events ever created. It was set up with four kittens, one at the start line at North Square and three others selectively scattered about Serin. Each of the three scattered kittens held two riddles: the first riddle asked for an easily obtainable item in the area where the kitten resided, and the other revealed the location of the next kitten. Race participants were thus required to think quickly while speeding through Serin as quickly as possible! Use of magical transportation, such as word of recall, nexus or gate, resulted in disqualification. Heralds recorded start and stop time, and ranked competitors based on the swiftest completion of the race. The winner received a prize and bragging rights displayed broadly across the Herald Bulletin Board. Tickets for entry to the Serin Race may be purchased from Noldo in Seringale for herald chips. Hand the ticket to the Race Kitten at North Square to begin. Only Heralds are able to start and end the Serin Race. This is completed by making a request at Odile. ***Heralds only*** To begin the race, at Odile... Syntax: say 'Please send out the kittens' - sets the Race components into place say 'Please recall the kittens' - removes the Race Kittens from Serin
