Creative, LadyC, very creative... :D

However, reality isn't this fancy. The Pearl of Portents is animated anytime there is an event going on (According to legend, the Pearl of Portents only opens on very special occasions!). True: these days those 'special occassions' are the norm, rather than the exception. But there are still a few of us dinosaurs around that remember the time when events were something New and Exciting. The Pearl of Portents would announce an event by slowling unfolding it petals in the days prior to the event. These days the petals have to work 24/7, almost 365 days of the year.
