Game updates/20061102

Update - Thursday November 2, 2006

End of Halloween Event

Now sadly, the madness is ended

Laughs abounded and no tears were shed

King Thorn has returned to the Underworld

Pumpkin still very much on his head.

No more scares for Elona and Tyria

No more transformations or spooky décor

Peace comes at last, though we can’t help but ask:

Will the Mad King return once more?!
