Notes:

Introduced in 2026, this mount can only be obtained during the Midsummer Fire Festival. This event occurs around late June to early July each year, but the precise dates change annually so check your in-game calendar. During the event period you can use the Dungeon Finder to queue for the festival boss, Ahune in a special version of The Slave Pens. Currently, the probability of obtaining this mount is unknown, but following recent trends it's likely you only have a chance on your first attempt per account per day
