For Walk in the Dust‘s release on the CN server, this was essentially the prelude to the second anniversary event, Under Tides. It won’t be the global version’s anniversary yet until January, so we’ll have to see which event they will run – the CN summer Dossoles Holiday event featured a limited Operator as well.
