Dearest Elyrians,

It's that time of year again - the frost reminds us of the season, and the tendrils of the chill in the air encourages us to get a little closer to the ones we hold dear. Winter's cold embrace still has us in its grasp.

The new year on Earth and in Elyria is a time for new beginnings, growth, renewal, and the blossoming of true love. In the spirit of this time of year, Soulbound Studios wants to share their affection and gratitude with you, the Community, who we hold so dear!

Starting today, we've added a number of love-themed items to our store. If there is a special someone in the community for you, if you need a way to say "I ♥ you!" to your partner, your crush, your family or your dear friends - we've got you covered.

Please note: These items are seasonal and are available in our online store for a limited time.
