Balance December Update

[petros]

Greetings Denizens of Genesis!

I hope everyone is enjoying the Yule. This update is a
tad late, but it's still December =P Here's what has
been going on.

Thanksgiving Turkey Event
-------------------------
The Thanksgiving Turkey Event was announced after the
November Update was already posted. Many of you had
experiences with the rune stone that guided people to
the turkeys. The stone itself is quite an addition to
the Realms. It will be adapted and configured so that
youngsters will have an easier time finding things
when they first enter our world.

Academy of Elemental Arts
-------------------------
The Beta has now officially begun! Thanks to all our
testers in advance as I'm sure that they will make it
a much better place than it would be otherwise. I
consider the guild a big win for youngsters who seek
to pursue the magical arts.

Item Improvements
-----------------
Work continues in this area. Thanks to the players
who have continued to provide good feedback regarding
the item situation in the realms. I'll report back
in the next update if there's anything new.

Cheers!
Petros
