Quote of the Week
They said it wouldn't last. In a way, they were right. But the love between Venuquin and Halcyon would be legendary for centuries.
Venuquin, a beautiful Island Peophin, gazed adoringly at her love, a bespectacled Sketch Grarrl sitting on a pier. Calm, bookish and serene, the Grarrl contrasted sharply with Venuquin, a passionate, stormy and quick-tempered creature with a wild mane of curly hair. While Venuquin splashed in the water beneath the pier, Halcyon sat cross-legged on the pier, his lips pursed in thought and his pen scribbling furiously in his notebook.
Money, Money, Money: A Guide to Earning Neopoints
If you’re anything like me, you may have returned recently after years away from Neopia, all grown-up and raring to accomplish your goals since childhood: a completed lab map! Fully-customised Neopets! A comprehensive collection of every plushie ever made in Neopia! There is just one problem: your bank account. Maybe you weren’t the best at making Neopoints, or maybe you returned to a side account that has little in material assets. You see other users on the Neoboards flaunting lab-exclusive pets, expensive avatars, and stamp collections that number in the hundreds. How will you ever get close to that? |
5 Unique Ways to Celebrate Tyrannian Victory Day
The 12th day of the Month of Hunting is the official date for celebrating Tyrannian Victory Day. The holiday emerged in year 3 after Tyrannians successfully won over various enemy forces that had planned to take over the territory. Although a promise of revenge was made, those same villains have not returned ever since.
Some would think this would lead to tension amongst Tyrannian citizens, but the truth is Tyrannian has been prosperous and enjoying a long period of peace (if you exclude the War Of The Obelisk, of course, but that is a story for another issue of the Neopian Times).

 | Neopian Nibbles: Tasty Tyrannian Foods!
Ugga ooga uggh oogh!! That’s Tyrannian for “Welcome to the latest edition of Neopian Nibbles!”. Your hosts and food critic extraordinaires Riss (riss_chan) and Sammy (ciarza) decided to take a walk on the wild side this week, and sampled some of the finest food available on the Tyrannian Plateau in celebration of Tyrannian Day!
The humble Tyrannian Food Shop is owned by a Tyrannian Kacheek, whom we could not ascertain the name of -- when asked, he merely drooled a bit and scratched his head. |

"Kookie the Dancer" by rkbear
Kookie winced as her elbow hit the wall, again. Aviator rushed over and squawked dutifully at the wall telling the wall off for hurting her owner. She smiled and scooped up the petpet and cuddled the airax.
He seldom left her side. Wherever she went he was sure to be right behind. Her siblings told her that he was dark blue with light blue lightning bolt stripes, whatever that meant. She liked the feel of his soft feathers and leathery legs.
“Thank you, Avie,” She laughed as she put him down, and listened to him skitter around on the hardwood floor. She hoped he wasn’t scratching them, but there was no way for her to tell. Kookie had been born blind. |
"Faerie Fables - Naia the Fountain Faerie" by devotedly
Naia crouched down at her small desk, clutching an armful of goodies. Carefully, she balanced herself on the chair and let all of what was in her hands fall onto the desk. She sat back in her chair and looked at what she had found: a water pot, a few brushes and some flowers she was going to grind down to make the paint. Naia longed for actual paint but as her father had said, paint was very expensive and hard to find in the Neopian Shops. Satisfied with what she had, she began to grind down the flowers she had picked in the forest to make beautiful powders of blue, red, orange and pink. She smiled to herself and slowly added the water... |
