"Well well! It's a NEW YEAR and I'd say a new me, but I don't think I can replace these nice creaky bones~ BUT for you lil wonderful mhoatlings do I got a gift? I do! It's the NEWS from wonderful lil me.

Wait.... That's not enough??? Hmmm, wellllllll, I suppose you'll find a better gift if you keep on reading and I hope you'll be excited for it!! As it's the real gift!!"

"I do want to note that the Starlight Gala is still running so you can still enter for the lil' frosty bun~ Remember, you'll automatically enter once you join the Giftmaking Activity! But! The activity does have it's own rules so make sure to read up on it~ I wish everyone good luck!"

"There are some minor news for some general updates as well:

• The trait categories have been fixed up with more information regarding mandatory and optional traits. Part of this involves new trait categories being added which are: "Mhoat Aethic Tones" and "Vabbit Tones". Which caused the "Goo" category to be altered to "Mhoat Special Aethic" instead.
• There is also an update to the navigation bar as well. If you go to “Info” you can click on “Species” and it has a quicker links and access for the both the species pages and their visual trait indexes as well.
• And just above the "Species" section in the navigation bar, also in the "Info" section. Is now a MYO guide! Hopefully it'll help with information regarding what is needed to make MYOs.
• There is also a link to OA customs in the "Market" tab as well! It includes how to buy customs, as well as how to buy MYO items too!
• We also have an End of the Year form here! It will be closing on the 7th, so be sure to check that out and let us know what your thoughts are!

Otherwise onto the prompt!"

"After the disastrous vabbit attack and due to the snow now melting, it seems the vabbit's hideouts are being discovered!!! There's been many reports of unsuspecting mhoats falling into holes that keep winding down and around. As a newscaster, it makes me want to check it out!! As these holes seems to lead to secret vabbit cities and more!"

"To end the last year cleanly, let's go to this month's raffle! We have another lil mhoat to give away. I'd also like to say, mewhaku, has won the previous Mhoat that was for Raffle!

"I do hope this New Year treats you all wonderfully and I'll bring this to a close. Or so I say! I did mention something, something read for a gift? Why YES! I did~ There are not only new traits and a new adopt set!! But ALSO a new years pack!

"All that art and you stuck around? For that, may I say as a bonus gift that there may be a batch of traits dropping alongside an event? Maybe even lil birthday gifts! Keep an eye out~ Or an eye socket out if you have only bones like me~ hehe"
