This option is available for flight-run pushes or push preparations that will run during the specified week. Flights are not required to reserve posts, and if no representative is specified, it will be assumed that the flight does not want a reserve post for that week.[br] Out of respect for pushing flights, reserve posters should always give priority to flights that are pushing during that week. Pushing flights should all get their reserved posts [i]before[/i] other flights. Please [b]do not[/b] announce that your flight is pushing if your flight isn't going to be primarily exalting dragons to your deity, as this would unfairly bump your flight up in the reserve post priority.

Each house believes in different values that glorify the Windsinger, and this reflects in their lifestyles. This year the Windsinger decided to once again shake up the festivities. He whispered a few words of magic into the wind to provide himself some entertainment. The dragons of the houses launched into a heated competition, with their onlookers choosing a house to cheer for. Who will be victorious this year? [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/2RmtdWX.png[/img][/center] Windies, make sure to join in for fun and glory to your house! By participating, you can earn badges based on your exalts as well as your house’s donation efforts. What are the houses you ask? Well, take a read below! [columns][img]https://i.imgur.com/JB30QcL.png[/img][nextcol] [size=5][b]House Apeliotes[/b][/size] [size=4]Wind of the East[/size] Autumn winds bring the celebration of the harvest and community, and the dragons that take after it are some of the most giving and supportive in all of Wind. Those of the Apeliotes house are empathetic and emotionally sensitive and are always willing to pitch in what they can spare to help those around them. They tend to be the shyest of the houses but make loyal and caring friends. [/columns] [columns][img]https://i.imgur.com/iYJ0n2X.png[/img][nextcol] [size=5][b]House Notus[/b][/size] [size=4]Wind of the South[/size] The dry heat of summer brings with it the strongest winds, and dragons of Notus are intense and passionate to match. Of all of the Wind flight, they are the strongest warriors and the deftest fliers. They follow their intuition and are driven by a strong sense of duty. These dragons believe in fighting for what they think is right, and will exhaust every option to see a task through to the end. [/columns] [columns][img]https://i.imgur.com/Rza0gyi.png[/img][nextcol] [size=5][b]House Zephyrus[/b][/size] [size=4]Wind of the West[/size] Filled with the refreshing burst of new life the warm spring winds bring, Zephyrus dragons focus on creation. A very spiritually and emotionally attuned group, they communicate through a variety of arts and bring music and color to the land. They focus on introspection and are always chasing their muse. [/columns] [columns][img]https://i.imgur.com/sxzzfBx.png[/img][nextcol] [size=5][b]House Boreas[/b][/size] [size=4]Wind of the North[/size] Blown by the strong northern winds, Boreas dragons feel a tug deep in their bones to go out and explore. They live for the thrill of discovery and are constantly pursuing knowledge as well as uncharted land. Those of house Boreas tend to be dreamers, always searching for new possibilities. They tend to be the best diplomats and explorers and sometimes consider themselves to be the closest to the Windsinger.
