Site Update
A community-focused user event brought to Aywas by Chianya (#12264) and a Slashbot.
Life might give you lemons, but Aywas gives you Love Lemons. <3
This event marks the end of our user event marathon for a little while, so enjoy this one!
"Sometimes we all need to be given a reason to love life, and once we have that reason, we start to see many other reasons that we hadn't noticed before. This event strives to make you love your life on Aywas a little more, in the hopes that it will drive you to realize other reasons to love your life that you may have overlooked in the past. So during this event, please take some time to remember those who have passed on, as well as those whom were taken away from the world against their will. Then please take some more time to reflect upon the reasons that you have to love your life, large or small." -- Chianya

A phoenix, symbolizing blazing rebirth and a thrilling existence.
