September 9th 1997 was the day Achaea first opened its doors to the public, inviting them in to create their own characters and begin writing their own stories into the world's vast and grand narrative.

Now, twenty two years later it's my great pleasure to wish this unique and weirdly wonderful world a sincere happy birthday - approaching a quarter of a century in age, Nicola, Makarios, and myself, along with the entire Garden team, continue to be amazed by the creativity and passion we see from our community.

While various contests are running throughout the month and we'll be hosting a series of world games and other mini events over the coming weeks, everyone can type HAPPYBIRTHDAYACHAEA once to receive 22 bound credits and a 24 hour period of bonus critical hits and double XP!

This command can be typed at any point through the rest of the month, but only once!

Happy Birthday Achaea!
