Question of the Week
Mabinogians! August is a particularly special month for Mabinogi as it is Sabina’s birthday! When your real life birthday comes along, how do you celebrate in your Fantasy Life? Do you have any special in-game plans for your next birthday?
A diplomat is a man who always remembers a woman's birthday but never remembers her age. - Robert Frost
Here's what some of your fellow Mabinogians had to say:
My birthday is in May. Usually in-game celebration near the river with a bunch of friends. We play music, sit around the fire, and eat delicious food. Then we run Rundal Adv and Peaca raids all night til about 5am in the morning. It's alot of fun and I can't wait til my birthday comes again to do it all over again. Happy birthday Sabina! - Katie Y.
Go into Peaca and get to a room of red ghosts. Get on mounts. Play fire-dodge-ball. PROFIT. - Luna S.
For my birthday I plan to run a bunch of guild events and dungeon runs with my guild. I'd much rather see my guild and my friends happy on my birthday and celebrate that way. It makes me happy to see everyone I care about enjoying the day. That would be the best birthday present of all ^^ - Dylan E.
