Gallia’s Newsletter - Community Highlights - January edition (en anglais)

Hello Paxians,

Welcome to the first edition of Gallia’s Community Newsletter for 2026! This edition features heartfelt Yule celebrations and bustling winter markets, recruiting clans and more. Let’s dive in.

🎄 A player-hosted Yule celebration

At the end of December, Vyx hosted a Christmas gathering for the Selene server that truly embodied the spirit of Yule. Attendance was RSVP-only, as each guest received a personalized in-game gift ranging from steel ingots to PvP-focused food. More than 40 players joined the celebration.

Every attendee had a place set at a custom-built table, and the evening continued in Discord voice chat with laughter and stories shared between players from many different clans. A thoughtful, generous event that left a lasting impression on everyone involved.

📜 Player-made quests: The Path of Carpentry

The Menagerie continues to push the boundaries of player creativity with in-game, player-made quests. The Path of Carpentry is a tutorial-style quest line designed for new players, currently featuring five interactive tutorial quests.

🏰 Yule markets at Magnus Lunae castle

Clan: Magnus Lunae

Location: Magnus Lunae Castle / Maremna, Ancien (Demeter)

During the Yule season, Magnus Lunae opened the gates of their castle for two festive Christmas markets on December 22nd and 29th. Visitors explored snow-covered courtyards filled with lantern light, seasonal decorations, and carefully crafted stalls.
