Site Update
I have a Lunar Meteor update for you, but before I get to that, I wanted to share a personal anecdote with you that just so happens to coincide with the magic of this region.
You always hear stories about people seeing strange things in the sky, whether it's another planet, a stealth plane or other flying object, or an actual meteorological event, but about the most exciting thing I've ever seen in the sky is a bat--and even then, I'm not 100% positive it was one.
Tonight though, I looked out the window to see glowing lights off in the distance moving toward my house. At first I couldn't tell how high they were in the air, but it was clear that they were moving quickly, all following the same path, one after the other in a seemingly endless stream of flickering light. I realized that they were moving with the wind, and they were lower than I originally thought, but they were definitely literally flickering like a candle. That's when we realized they were lanterns! I don't know where they were being released from or why, but they were beautiful. I couldn't have picked a more perfect night to see them, either. :3
Feel free to leave a note in the comments about neat things you've seen in the sky!
Now, onto the pet additions!
5 new pets have been added to the region to round out our zodiac pets and the new colorations for the region this year!
We have also added the Lunar Meteor Day Wallpaper to the Advent Calendar! You can collect it any time on August 18th (tomorrow).
For you night owls, you'll find the night version of the wallpaper in the Advent Calendar on the following day (August 19th).
Enjoy the pretty lights!

^Oops XD I've already recognized about 20 full constelations, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn, but I've never seen Mars, I wish I could see it some day :)
