Read on for Dr. Singh's full update...
Dr. Singh: Hi, everyone! Welcome to a special holiday edition of the Evolving Item Report, with a very special guest: Mrs. Claus, wife of Santa! We had a little mix-up last week... we invited Santa to co-host the program, but he turned out to have the mind of a cow, so it didn't go so smoothly.
Mrs. Claus: I'm sorry about that! I suppose I should have told you about that when you booked him...
Dr. Singh: Oh, don't be sorry-- he was much more polite than most of my co-hosts. So, Mrs. Claus, how goes the effort to get his mind back?
Mrs. Claus: Well, last I checked, the Cheer Coil is still nowhere near powered up, so we need all the help we can get. Big thanks to all the Gaians who have participated so far! With any luck, we'll have Santa back to his old self within a few days.
Dr. Singh: That's great to hear, Mrs. Claus. Now, if you don't mind, we'd better get down to some science: I'm excited to report that we've got a
brand new item this week! The creator of the legendary Alruna's Rose is back in the lab with another dazzling invention: the
Anima Adamantea, a piece of high-tech equipment whose true purpose we can only guess.
Mrs. Claus: Oh, my! It looks like it would make a lovely X-mas tree topper.
Dr. Singh: No offense, but something tells me it's destined for bigger things than that. If you'd like to get in on the ground floor of this exciting technological development, you can get a first-generation Anima Adamantea now in the Gaia Cash Shop! Remember: first-gen items hold higher value in the Marketplace, and get all their newest poses weeks before the other generations.
Mrs. Claus: Not to be impatient, dear, but I must ask: is my Holy $#17 finally evolving?
Dr. Singh: It is! In fact, the Holy $#17 has reached its exciting final form this week, complete with some fantastic new poses. This strange little item has truly pulled through with outstanding results! In other news, the
Copper Twopence is evolving again this week. Be sure to get this one while you can, folks-- it will be in the Cash Shop through December, but after that, it's gone!
Mrs. Claus: Dear me! That's not even two weeks from now.
Dr. Singh: The
Coocoon is also seeing a long-awaited update this week with some great cool new entomological action!
Mrs. Claus: Such wonderful news this week! Oh, what a fine season...
Dr. Singh: Not so fast, Mrs. Claus. There's some bad news, as well: this week, one of the most dangerous scourges ever to hit Gaia is reaching its final stage of evolution.
Gro-Gain, this discontinued hair-growth tonic that turned my former sidekick Timmy into a cognac-swilling smooth jazz scoundrel, has now completed its terrible journey. My deep concern goes out to all those unfortunate souls who fell under its evil, hairy power! Goodness knows what dangers still lurk within its terrible bottle...
Mrs. Claus: Timmy! I've heard of that child... he tried to eat Santa!
Dr. Singh: Tried to
eat Santa? Good heavens. There's no telling how low he'll sink, now that he's under the sway of that awful substance. I suppose that's enough negative thinking for now, though. After all, it's almost X-mas!
Mrs. Claus: Yes! And with any luck, Santa will be back to his old self very soon. Keep on making those toys, Gaians! We need all the cheer we can get!
Dr. Singh: That concludes our report for the week, ladies and gentlemen. Please remember to vote in our weekly
poll and let us know which items you like best. Thanks!
Please note: unfortunately, the evolution of the Fallen Wish has been delayed until next week. As you may know, most evolving items are created and maintained by a specific artist; the creator of the Fallen Wish is out of the country this week on personal matters. She'll be back soon. Thanks very much for your patience and understanding-- we know the item will be worth the wait!
