Question of the Week
Mabinogians, It’s time for the Question of the Week! With the release of the Romantic Gift Box comes an array of amazing items. What have you received from your Romantic Gift Box so far? What would you like to get?
Romance should never begin with sentiment. It should begin with science and end with a settlement. - Oscar Wilde
Here's what some of your fellow Mabinogians had to say:
I would like to get Lorna & Pan Puppets! cutest thing ever! :D - Carla L.
I'd LOVE to get myself the Steel Needle or Flame enchants. Gone would the days of painstakingly dragging myself through Peaca Int for a shot at them. - Darryl L.
I got a Mushroom Robe, which I gave to someone who reeeally had been wanting one and didn't have the 2 mil to get it. I would really love to get a Bat Set (F) for my best friend. She's been wanting one forever, and it would just be the perfect gift for someone who is always so giving ^_^ - Chelsea E.
