Hello everyone,
Today’s update is short and sweet to release the birthday event to commemorate our 8th year of uptime! Today marks an incredible milestone for our community, and we simply could not have be here without every single one of you. What started as a passion project has grown into an extraordinary community that truly feels like a family and a second home for many of us. Whether you’ve just joined a month ago or have been with us for the entire ride, thank you for your support and being a part of this adventure — here’s to many more years of Alora! 
The drop party begins in less than two hours, so please do not miss it! There are plenty of items for you to have a chance at, so head over to ::event around 3pm EST.

- Head to ;;event and grab a slice of cake to celebrate Alora’s 8th birthday with other players!

- Smithing pet:
- Smith’ers is here! When it comes to Skilling pets, the Smithing skill has long been neglected — but no more.
- Made of nothing but pure metal and wood, Smith’ers can be obtained during any smithing action, as well as the following activities:
- Fixing struts in Motherlode mine
- Creating items via Singing bowl
- Smithing bars in Blast Furnace
- Using the Superheat spell
- The rate is similar to the House pet from Construction (but a bit easier), and using a Golden hammer (or even having one in the bank) will increase your chance of obtaining it by 25%.
