The synodic night revolves around a great ocean's lull, deep in the nebulous abyss a light blinks reverently.

SOLL'S STORY AND SHOP
Thick snow pristinely blankets a vast sandy expanse. The night sky
is illuminated by pinpricks of light, dwarfed by the moon's face.
You search at length for a sign of company.

DECEMBER DELAYS
During December, between the holidays and some difficult life changes for members of staff we were unable to meet some of our original projections.

We'd like to apologize for the additional and unexpected delays especially around the holidays during December that caused a general delay in our work queue. We are regrouping and getting back on track for the new year!

VAER BALANCING STATUS
vaerpetteaser.png
The Vaer Balancing update is a few days away from being ready to release. We're in the final stages of testing and preparations now!
Item & Pet Assets • 100%
Quest Adjustments • 80%
Misc Tasks • 90%
More info and teasers will be going up in the next few days, thank you for all your patience!

CUSTOM QUEUE STATUS
Due to our holiday delays during the month of December, we needed to pause our work on the custom queue to focus on our site-wide task list instead. We're looking to be back on track this month with finishing the current and taking on the next batch!

UPCOMING PLANS
Once the Vaer Balancing update is out, we'll be looking at updating our current priorities and working fully towards the Marketplace updates. More info on this as we progress!

    No way, an actually purple monthly set. What a world we live in.
  • Villager Honeebunny (#7072) 4 Jan 2025, 12:15 am
    what a pretty set!! gonna have to try and get most of this one.

    OH MY GOD IT'S PURPLE HELL YES
  • Villager Steex (#8821) 4 Jan 2025, 12:17 am
    the item disparity between oran and pai is a little disappointing but this is otherwise a very beautiful set, with a beautiful color to boot. appreciate the inclusion of an oran pet too, it has been a long time since our last one i believe.
  • Villager Steex (#8821) 4 Jan 2025, 12:21 am
    one thing though - why is the pai hatching item not available from bonus prizes like the oran one is? is this intended or a mistake? i don't remember if this was the case with past pai pets since i don't usually look at them, so feel free to remind me if it's always been like this.
  • Villager Myrrhmaid (#48226) 4 Jan 2025, 12:26 am
    The set is so pretty, and the pets look adorable! I think I might be even more excited about the Vaer pet though, it looks so gorgeous! ✨🐚

    The hatching item in Pai has never been in the bonus pool, to my knowledge, probably because of pricing disparity to the other Pai items while Oran is all flat at 9k.
  • Villager Steex (#8821) 4 Jan 2025, 12:36 am
    R000P (#13367) understood, thank you!
  • Villager fumus (#64615) 4 Jan 2025, 12:39 am
    I'm so excited for all the new pets! This is also one of the most well done sets I think in a long time. I've been disappointed with the quality and quantity of items in Oran's sets especially the last few sets it felt really unbalanced but I think this 8 item + 1 pet layout for both stores is far more balanced but the details on the Pai sets makes sense to me as the RLC set whilst still making the in-game currency set beautiful and worthwhile. Sometimes I feel like people who really only have in-game currency have been really getting the short end of the stick for a bit especially when we had items like skins/lips/eyes/hair/etc that you'd expect in a Oran set omitted or placed in the Pai. This set that went above & beyond my expectations, and I really hope sets continue this balance more if possible. I've also had purple eyes on my wishlist for a very long time, so what a pleasant surprise.

    whoa :O ... oceanic starchaser ribbon looks so stunning <333 .... and those trinkets, eyes and skins are all love ... definitely worth the wait ^_^
  • Villager EarthYing (#70311) 4 Jan 2025, 1:51 am
    I am so glad that we have Oran Hatching again, thank you very much for put it into the first month at 2025, we have something that everyone can be happy=)
