The Serpent Festival

Greetings, villagers of the mainland. The time has come, and the serpent has landed on the mainland and is ready for your offerings. This ancient beast is one of the last remaining from the old times, before written history, before the villages came together in a global economy and named themselves, collectively, Furvilla. This serpent is where the villagers of Quetzal Palace have made our town, and its constant movement allows us travel across the entire Furvillian continent. Except for these coming two weeks, at least...
The serpent is peculiar, you see. It enjoys collecting small animals and weaponry/armor (though we are widely uncertain what it does with these items). If you bring it an offering of these items, it will reward you in turn. Our Cloudog species was created by the serpent, and it appears that it has created more life from the clouds:
As you may note, these creatures have a breeding cool-down of one day. This means that you may attempt to breed them, if you are skilled in animal husbandry, or you can continue to offer the serpent creatures in exchange for its creations. You may find that the serpent is more rewarding, if you are seeking out a rarer animal. When the serpent leaves on March 1st, these creatures will become infertile, and will not be able to breed.
But fear not, as the Guardian Angels will be working to collect rare and super rare creatures to offer at the Gala Ball. Nonetheless, if you happen to include 5,000 FC with your animal offering, the serpent may regard which species you prefer.
The serpent is giving away weapons and armor (and a helm) that are far stronger than most we have created... and much more sturdy. Perhaps one day the serpent will share its techniques for durable construction with our blacksmiths... hm...
This is the Serpent's Feather, and you can obtain it by trading in weapons or armor to the serpent. This is the currency of the Gala Ball. If you wish to purchase anything from the Gala, then you should collect these. Hm... I do believe you may want to make sure you collect fifty of these beautiful feathers before the Gala opens... but that is your choice, of course.
That strange fellow who creates all the plushes has been hard at work designing ones for our illustrious festival... now, you may not find you are able to get your paws on these until the Gala opens. However, you can gaze upon them right now and begin your plans for collection.
Speaking of the Gala, you are aware it opens on February 21st at 12:00 PM, yes? I expect you will be getting yourself ready for that... place yourself in a nice suit or dress, and you will look your best. Perhaps you can earn yourself a VIP ticket to the Gala? Do be sure to bring plenty of feathers, as there will be many fashionable objects available at the Gala for your perusal and purchase: plushes, furniture, vistas, rare and super rare creatures... perhaps other things, as we hosts see fit.
It appears that the Skunk and Dutch Angel Dragon species have found their wings in the Fairy Costume... or an extra pair of wings, depending on who you're talking to.
The Snake and Dutch Angel Dragon species have learned to smile down upon us from the stars, and can now wear the Galaxy Costume.
The Dutch Angel Dragon and Bear species have joined our ranks in the army, and can now wear the Angelic Costume.
Now, if you will excuse me... I am a bit preoccupied with a promise I made earlier... *she searches for a note that she had written, but frustratedly cannot find it* ...oh dear. Well, this may not end well...

Well I can say Anna didn't promise Fairy Dust. That seemed like a rare enough thing...
Also. There's a fang club in the picture of the serpent... But you can't give him fanged clubs...why...T-T
where do I go to turn in items?
If it was one crafted weapon/armor or five bought w/a per chance, i wouldnt have as big of a problem as i do with this event, but FIVE crafted w/as for a CHANCE of one feather is absolutely untenable, considering the time commitment and materials you have to put into that. Really hoping this gets properly balanced soon, this is really, really disappointing. :/
I'm new, and very confused as to where to go for anything....
Well... I was super happy about this event... but now, seeing just how hard it is to get anything other than the pets... I'm not really too cheered about it anymore... Is that supposed to be the thing? To emulate how V-day is a consumer's heck, and half the time the stuff you buy can't be useful?
So what weapons or armor *can* we trade to the serpent? Because apparently shop stocked versions aren't acceptable? Would've been nice to know that before I went and bought a bunch.
okay how in the world are we supposed to get 50 feathers in a week if the chances of getting a feather are so low already
you'll need at least 250 weapons and that's only if you're getting a feather for 50 consecutive tries
I ticked off what items I'm offering but the serpent isn't accepting. What is going on? Help!
RNG? Turn in pet to trade? Oh no I am kind of confused. I don't really know what's what on this site. :(
