River of Souls is a Rift world event that launched March 30 and will run in phases. We have no eta for the end of the event.
Some rewards can only be purchased from the world event merchants and certain achievements can only be earned during the course of this event.

New rifts and invasions from the Plane of Death are appearing across the world. Visit Sanctum or Meridian to learn how you can help defend Telara and earn Otherworldly Sourcestones, which can be used to obtain items of power and mystery.
Fully participating in Minor Death Rifts will net you four Otherworldly Sourcestones and Major Death Rifts net you eight. Defeating a roaming death invasion force will net you one sourcestone.
This phase started on March 30, 2011.

Friday's Dev Chat revealed:
This information is from the Alpha Shard and may change before going live: Alsbeth is attacking Fortified Wardstones, mostly of the Order of Mathos, with undead Colossi pulled from the River of Souls. Destroy these creatures in each zone to save Telara from destruction!
The Order of Mathos have established Fortified Wardstones in all the Neutral Zones, while the Sanctum Guard is stationed in Silverwood and Gloamwood, and the Eldritch Vanguard are stationed in Freemarch and Stonefield.
Note: sometime the night of 4/10 the Fortified Wardstones vanished. Our guess is, we were not supposed to know where they are until Phase 2 goes live. Now, they will probably move them.
The starting date for this phase is TBA.
Friday's Dev Chat revealed:
The currency for this event is Otherworldly Sourcestone, which can be received as a quest, death rift or death invasion reward. The rewards are available from the merchants below and from at least one of the two Daily Quest NPC's in the cities. When looking at the items that can be bought you will only see the rings that your Calling can use.
