Nice event! I like the eyes and the new marking shape ^.^

I have a quick question about game balance though.... Why does the encounter with the charged core give a "reward" so disproportional to the offer of the ceded item?

A charged core is pretty rare trophy, made even more rare because it's only dropped from lunar enemies (which are only available for a limited time and have a daily cap for all users) and is already used in a crafting recipe (the gem cave)

It can fetch a pretty high price on the TC

So when a raven asks you to hand one over, what riches await?

Well...

3 LT, which is nice, I guess. Enough to buy a lunar wisp. And a little more energy than you get from ... A bone marrow

Was it intentional to have the crow rob you?

EDIT:

I was just made aware of another encounter involving lunar oil, while still a limited item, a lot more common since it's not a trophy drop and you can reliably get it by trading a flea cure to the itchy lunar raccoon.

It's currently not used for any recipes, so everyone's lunar oil has just been building up and up and up

And it's proportionality cheaper in the TC

So when you get this encounter, what do you expect?

So what doe the lunar oil do?

Fewer tears, but more energy! Almost half a guarana, which is available in the Grove for 5 GC!

Unless this transaction is based on chance and the displayed outcome is the least unfortunate, I'm questioning the new encounters. Along with this one another encounter has been released for this event where I could trade 2 pieces of Lunar Oil for 1 LT and 40% energy.

Lunar Oil is much common item than Charged Core, it can be obtained from encounter where raccoon asks for Fleas Remedy and I don't know what else as I notice that those are more common than the medicine. It used to have no purpose previously.
