The Case of the Missing Jewels




As you hurry across the beach to look over the Freyalise Trading Company goods again, you bump into a very unstable and bleary-eyed Mattieu. He hardly looks like himself with wrinkled clothing and messy hair.



"What happened to you?" you ask.



"I wish I knew," he moans as he attempts to straighten his rumpled clothes. "Last night I met Captain Jaques at the Rathskeller Inn to go through his stock and purchase some new jewelry materials--I didn\'t want to pay those ridiculously marked up prices he charges the tourists--and this morning I woke up with the most awful headache. But that\'s not the worst of it. All my money is gone but I\'ve only got a handful of materials!" He glares at the Freyalise. "Those dirty pirates must have gotten me drunk and ripped me off!"



"But there\'s a whole crew of them and just one of me," he says sadly. "Unless--no,I couldn\'t--but, well, I don\'t suppose you be willing to come with me for moral support?



Privately you think he may need you more for physical support than moral, judging by his unsteady gait.

Revamped Darkmatter Rreign and Serpenth!




All of the quests you\'re completing for Maleria are only contributing to her power. Thankfully this time she has simply used it to give a shiny new (and compelling) look to the darkmatter rreign and serpenth - but watch out who you help! You might be the one that gets brainwashed, next!

Revamp ALL OF THE WARADORS!













They\'ve been poked and prodded, restuffed and restitched, given shiny new staffs and a whole new look. The warador revamp is here! But what\'s that? There\'s more? It seems that Maleria has manipulated the darkmatter warador into a new pose, and Iltallo has given a new blessing to the galactic warador so they could join their shiny new comrades! And whoever is responsible for creating those large headed chibi terrors (someone evil involved with the Millionaire Center no doubt) has unleashed a new chibi warador upon Subeta. Boy, that\'s a lot of talking plush jesters.

Reading drive shop update




We're reopening the old reading drive shop for the week for people who have old reading drive points to spend.



On Saturday we are going to close the shop and clear reading drive points to prepare for the new pricing format in the shop. All old items will remain in the shop in addition to new items. So we highly recommend spending any reading drive points you have saved up from previous years!
Reading Drive!
Bound Glade Journal
Time Travel and You
Ballroom Fashions Paper Doll Book




School is back in session and the time for books is NOW. After a long wait, Archie has agreed to put on the reading drive once more.



He's running things a bit differently this year, however! Archie claims that he has not held a reading drive in so long due to the overabundance of common books he received last time. As such, this year he's looking to only accept books you cannot restock.



But worry not, dear users, for Alexander is joining in on the drive this year, and is willing to give out points to those who complete his quests!



Archie will open up his shop in one week, so you better earn all the points you can before then!
