Happy 15th Anniversary AQW! And a happy celebratory month to Artix Entertainment! 🥳 To continue October's AEnniversary AExtravaganza, it is my humble privilege to finally announce the grand unveiling of the literature initiative, and the majestic return of The Zardian at The Zardian.com! 🎉🎊 For the inquiring mind, The Zardian E-Zine was AE’s former newsletter and literature magazine. It is a treasure trove filled with a plethora of stories, cooking recipes, news, contests, literature, lore, puns and more! 📚 On this very special anniversary month, we invite you all on a nostalgic literary journey back through time! Meet returning friends and foes, such as Pae, Nel and Kabroz as you explore the vast literary texts in Maya’s Grand Librarium. There is something for every reader to enjoy. Feeling hungry? Learn how to cook Galanoth’s Spaghetti and Dragonballs 🍝 with his special dragonslayer recipe! Still hungry!?!? Try his coveted Ultimate Quiche of Ultimate Destiny! 🥧 Curious to learn about the team? Join Loremoglin Nel as he probes the inner minds of the men, women and moglins behind the making of AE games! ✏️ Whatever you end up reading, just be sure to stay away from the hungry Gecko! 🦎 Thanks to the legacy’s restoration project, the E-Zine can now be enjoyed on both PC and Mobile without the need for Adobe Flash! Almost all articles have been recovered and restored, which would otherwise have ended up being lost media… or Pae’s next meal O_O *chomp!* A massive thank you to all the team members and contributors that worked hard on the project, including our wonderful family over at the AE Forum. Thank you all for the amazing memories and hilarious shenanigans we made along the way! 🤣 This project was a year in the making and we had to keep it under-wraps until Anniversary month, so we are all delighted to finally share with you what we’ve been working on for the past year! 😎 A special thank you to the legendary contributors of the original e-zine, including a special /salute and shout-out to @Alina_AE, our former Editor In Chief! Hope this brings back some nostalgic memories! 😊 Thank you all for your talented writing and magical storytelling that filled our hearts and minds. We couldn’t have done this project without you all! ❤️ Last but not least, a huge thank you to @ArtixKrieger, @Alina_AE and the AE Team for what has essentially been 21 Years of ultimate awesomeness! From the humble origins of the 2002 AdventureQuest, to the highly-anticipated AQWorlds Infinity, it has been an incredibly fun ride, and we’re all looking forward to more amazing adventures. To infinity and beyond! 💫 Ok, this is becoming a very long post so I must wrap this up! It has been an honour to help restore and bring The Zardian back to life. An Undead Zardian!?!? 💀 Wherever your literary journey takes you, know that your next adventure is only a page turn away! We hope you enjoy a cozy stay at The Zardian.com and find the stories you are looking for. We wish you happy readings with your literary endeavours. So sit back, relax, and as always… ZardOn! ⚔️ P.S. A word of advice. Please do NOT poke the Gecko! 🦎
