*coughs and crawls out from under a pile of rose petals*
We're busy bees behind the scenes getting a shop of love set up for everyone to enjoy! The shop will be going up some time today and we'll probably be breaking the news post up into two sections--that's how much lovely stuff we're buried under. Remember, if you see things going into the Seasonal Shop before the announcement, DO NOT purchase them, as they are subject to change prior to official release via the news.
If you're antsy about what's coming up, you can get a little sneak peek on the Welcome Back page. :3

Super Happy Fun Explore Times!
Pets
Good afternoon my little cherubs! Hasn't it been a while? Some heartless so-and-so who shall not be named Erienne oh gosh my traitorous fingers dragged me from my little cave of solitude in order to fill for Mauri this weekend. I promise to take good care of you and employ only a minimal amount of inappropriate eyebrow-waggling throughout.
Next week's pets are the Gael, Insi and Melo!
Don't forget that if you dedicate your time to colouring any of these little fellas over the next week, you'll earn a tasty 10 GP instead of the usual 3 GP per. Need a refresher on our incentive scheme? Visit here! Want to just get stuck in to colouring? Grab your PSDs here!
Finally, if you coloured any of the above beauties, be sure you swing by Kyu and Mauri of #1010 to pick up a copy of your pet.
Au revoir! :D

Kera Voting
Pets
If you haven't browsed the entries of the Weekend Kera Coloring Contest, I encourage you to take a look because the submissions were stunning. Originally, I was not crazy about the Kera as a pet, but seeing what people did with the base really changed my mind and inspired me, so thank you for that.
If you made a coloration that's not up here, feel free to do whatever you like with it. I know I'm going to be stalking Pet Design Sales for some. XD
This was insanely hard to judge, but here are our final six!
Remember, you are voting on which Kera coloration you want to be the official color appearing in the BP Shop.
The rest will be raffled off as customs! :3
To vote, please include the phrase "Kera #__" in your news post comment. For example, if you want the first Kera, please comment "Kera #1."
1................................................2................................................3
4................................................5................................................6
If you colored one of these Keras, don't contact Visark for your prizes just yet, we need to finish voting first!
You have until Friday February 10th @ 11:59 PM to get your votes in, so hop to it!

Flying Love Letters
Site Update
Love Letters are now dropping properly!
You should be able to find them wherever you can find R20 items.
Most notably, they are findable in both Explore and Adventure and you can obtain them from cooking as well.
They are also still restocking in the Random Crap shop!
Remember, you can view your point total along with letters sent and received here.
If you need a refresher on how the point breakdown works, check out the news post here!
You will be able to gather and send Love Letters from now until when the seasonal shop closes (and it's not even open yet), so you have plenty of time to spread the love! Have fun. :3

Site Update
The art gallery has been judged! The theme was Aywas jewelry and we had some really creative, fun and well-crafted pieces submitted. I loved looking through them, and here are our winners!
Congratulations! I want all of those. XD
They won:
The theme this week is Famine in honor of our reigning Apocalypse Unus.
This can be done in digital or traditional media or anything crafty that you would like to use. You can do artwork of Famine the Unus itself, or an Ay/Ara landscape affected by Famine, etc. Have fun with it!

Love Letter Update
Site Update
So, as you may have noticed, this year's batch of Love Letters are a little shy.
They are assigned to the proper places and are the correct rarity, but for some reason they're still not being found--something that needed a mass-release to figure out. I'm currently waiting on word from Yasu to see what's up and we'll give you the all clear when the issue is fixed.
I've seen a lot of people stomp their feet and give up on this event already.
Let me take a moment to remind you that, you know what, things break, and things get fixed, and I'm here to reassure you that Love Letters will be obtainable. Everyone is going to have the same amount of time to find them and Love Letters won't be going back to AD rarity until after the Seasonal Shop closes, so please relax. When have I not
You also have just a couple hours left to play the Free Custom Game!

<3 Love Letters! <3
Site Update
It's Love Letter bombing time!
We have a lot of new players and many who will be experiencing Valentine's Day on Aywas for the first time this year, so let's show them how it's done and brighten each others' days with some sweet messages. <3
Here's how the Love Letter event works!
Love Letters are now R20 and are stocking in the Random Crap shop, but you might see them turn up elsewhere, too!
(We'll see how R20 goes.)
Every time you send a unique card, you and the recipient get one Valentine Point which you will be able to spend in the Seasonal Shop. It doesn't have anything in it now, but it will on Valentine's Day (for a full week starting on Valentine's Day, to be precise)! For now, you can just pace around in anticipation!
To send a card to someone for Valentine Points, click on the Love Letter in your inventory and hit Use to bring up the prompt. We've added a confirmation screen this year to ensure your letter gets delivered to the right address!
I'm going to do a point breakdown for you here as well so that there's no confusion. We want to spread the love around this year, so that means only unique cards earn points.
Point Breakdown
If I send you a card, we both get one point!
If you want to send me a card in return, we both get one point again!
So that is two points for each of us for a card swap.
Now, if I go to send you a card again, that's a lovely gesture and I'm sure you'll be happy with the card (I hope you are, anyway, that came from my heart! :C), but neither of us receive additional points.
Make sense? :3
You can view your Love Letters and current point total here! To make things easier for you, this year we have also added a Letters Sent tab so that you can see who you've already given a letter to!
If you're looking for somewhere to arrange letter swapping and sending, try swinging by Aywas Talk!
Now, lets let those Love Letters fly!
(Oh, and make sure you take a look at the awesome news post below about Gold Paint Brushes and our newest item, Life Seeds!)
