Hello! The following is an official update from Realm of Lyth regarding DeviantArt¢s intent to necessitate the use of Eclipse starting on May 20th, 2020.

- Our general plan for the future will be listed out below, but to summarize important points:
- The change to Eclipse does not greatly affect our plans for the future.
- Our goal is to make the site fully functional on its own, so that DeviantArt is merely a supplement and not required for any game features.
- Guest Artists may begin posting new adoptable designs to any social media of their choice, and are not required to post to DeviantArt. In the future, we hope to make designs more accessible on lythbound.com as well.
- We are working on an alternate way to allow character transfers and voids for those who do not wish to make an account, however this may require more thorough proof of ownership. Please read below for more information.

Lythbound.com's DeviantArt Functions

Since the release of lythbound.com, the goal has always been to make our own site self-sufficient so that we do not require DeviantArt in order to play any facet of the game. In some ways, we have thus far been successful; however some functions remain on DeviantArt (such as the ability to update Masterlist art, and playing the Gachapanions machine).

As such, we will continue working toward this goal. The DeviantArt group will not be deleted or removed, but our hope is that it continues to become more of a supplement to the game at lythbound.com than a requirement.

We will continue to support any functions currently on DeviantArt, and do not expect disruption from our end in providing game support.

Again, this was the plan anyway, and while we do not have an ETA for specific features being moved to lythbound.com, we were already preparing to do this.

Lythbound.com Guest Artist Sales

A feature that we have discussed internally is the ability for Guest Artists to sell adoptables on lythbound.com, to provide better accessibility to players to purchase them. We have held off on announcing this publicly as it is still in early stages of planning, but it seems prudent to mention now, given the situation on DeviantArt.

For the time being, we will be allowing Guest Artists to branch out on where they advertise and sell adoptables. Meaning, Guest Artists may choose to advertise somewhere such as Toyhou.se, Twitter, Furaffinity, etc, and may take payment from purchasers on those sites.

To better facilitate this, it is likely that going forward, purchasing a design from a Guest Artist will require having or making a site account.
When we complete our lythbound.com area for sales, a site account absolutely will be required for purchases, so this is a preliminary step toward that.

We recommend joining the official Discord Server to get updates on adoptable listings and other information.

Off-site Transfers

One feature that currently remains on DeviantArt is the ability to transfer or void characters on the masterlist without making a lythbound.com site account. If you have a site account, or plan to make one, you do not need to worry about this section.

We would like to keep this option available for those who own characters made in the past, as we understand what frustrations inherent in forcing sign-ups just to leave the game. However, we are looking into our options for the future.

If you do not wish to make a lythbound.com account and claim your characters, we recommend saving proof of your ownership of your DeviantArt account (particularly if you are planning to leave or close your account on DeviantArt). We will not transfer characters without proof that the transferer is truly the owner. The easiest way to transfer characters will always be making an account on lythbound.com and claiming your characters by linking to DeviantArt.

Lythbound.com Social Media

And finally, we hope to ramp up our presence on alternate social media, to make ourselves more accessible for anyone who would like to share their art elsewhere.

You can currently find our official presence in the following locations:

Discord: https://lythbound.com/info/discord
Twitter: https://twitter.com/lythbound
Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lythbound
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Lythbound
Toyhou.se: https://toyhou.se/~world/51442.lythbound

We will utilize and follow the hashtag #lythbound in our posts at these locations.

We are closely following and researching other social media outlets as well, and will post if we choose to support an official presence on any other supplementary sites.

Thank you all for your support! We look forward to continuing to work on lythbound.com, as well as see what DeviantArt has in store for us!

Happy Earth Day, everyone!

Silcoon has made us a new world map!! A actually map . . . how cool! :)

Along with this Silcoon and Coreath have made us a Globe and a new Earth Snuggly for your Snuggly Collections!!

On a different-but-same note: I know right now it is hard times with everything going on in the world, but it might be a good time to focus on the Earth itself and what we/you can do to protect it in your own way. - This site will give you a list of 10 things you can do for the Earth (the link is off-site).

ALSO CONGRATS TO SILCOON, THEY WILL BE OUR NEW HEAD ARTIST!!

Good evening, CE Players!

We are thrilled to announce a handful of new releases and share future development plans with you all! This week has been very productive on both the development and artist side of things, so buckle up for a fantastic update.

First off, a new gene management area has arrived at the Exploration Map. Adorafly's Lair was the crown jewel of the Love World, which has been salvaged by Celestial Sprites. They have worked tirelessly to preserve this special magic in order to allow the new horses of Celestia to experience its power! All genetic items can be previewed and applied to horses in this area. To access Adorafly's Lair, simply navigate to the "Exploration Map" or click this link! Let us know your thoughts regarding this feature in the comments! We always look to player input for future revisions.

Next up, a new installment of the Celestial Lore has been released. Will Nyssa make it to the healing pool unscathed, or with Evander's goons wipe her off the face of Celestia? Find out here! Unfamiliar with Celestial Lore? This is a fantastic story of the falling Kingdom's royal family. Read about each character, catch up on previously released chapters, and read the Celestial Backstory in the Celestial Lore area! This feature is also accessible through the Exploration map.

Celestial Equine has also received a ton of new genetics to the Cash Shop and the Magic Shop! We are still working on this month's Spotlight Event Package, but we can promise it will be a good one! In addition to new genetics, we are also 80% through our white marking revision project. We only have 10 more white genes left for whitening and brightening! All horses will see this change through their profile. Which white marking are you most excited about? Let us know in the comments!

Development Plans

As you all know, we constantly have new ideas in the works! We are currently cooking up a beautiful training area for players to interact with their horses to increase adjustable stats. This area should release by the start of next week! In addition to a new training area, we are continuing to revise bugs associated with the Battle Arena. The bug with points and incorrect images displaying will be revised by early next week!

These will be that last few updates before we change our focus to our beloved herd-lands. Who is ready for a little bit of character interaction? I know we are!

Lastly, our biggest update is occurring tonight at 2am! We are upgrading to a faster server to cut allow for more resources and reduce our lag time. CE will be down for about an hour for this update but will be well worth the wait! We will post reminders on Social Media and send a mini-message for those of you who miss the memo.

That wraps up today's news post. We will check-in with you all this Friday for feedback and additional updates regarding new features.

Sorry this post is a little late. . . . but the easter egg hunt is from April 10th to April 30th.

If you have already found the egg last year, this year you will be able to keep it! You will still have to find the new locations for all the easter eggs to get the new freshly made 2020 trophy.

To view eggs you have found: Go to "Personal" > "My solCloset" > "Easter Egg Hunt"

This year's Festival of Eggs has begun! You have three days to collect all 60 eggs. Happy hunting!

Conclave of Warlocks
is looking for Colored Eggs!

Hunt all guardian monsters on islands to collect the eggs.
Here's a sample:

Visit our exchange station to trade Colored Eggs.
Offer is valid until April 19th, 23:59!

Top 50 Beastlords who bring* the most eggs will get a random Hopper!
Check the ranks

The annual migration of Hoppers has started. Search for their eggs in the lairs of guardian monsters in all biotopes. The Conclave is highly interested in collecting egg samples. As always, the Warlocks count on the help of the Beastlords and offer nice rewards for the eggs!

Two new colors emerged this year, adapted for the everblooming plains of Europa.

*Only Colored Eggs spent in the Warlock Exchange Station count.

Each player is allowed to have only one account. Players who have multiple accounts will be banned.

  Miscellaneous Updates

• Titles management update:
  • The titles are automatically removed from pets sent to SPSB, used for activation of Etelia Snowflakes, and sent away in events.
  • It's now possible to edit titles for pets in the Reserve.
  • You may remove a title from all pets at once on the Manage My Titles page.
• The Stinky Cloud ability (a squad of 4 Throdama grade 3 Warriors) now causes an instant 3-maneuver degradation instead of adding one degradation cycle.
• A bunch of typo fixes.

Hello everyone!

You may have noticed that over the past little bit, the server has been having more general hiccups/downtime than in previous months! While this means that we are growing and having more people visit the site, it also means that it's time to get some better server specifications under our belt to support those visits!

We have found a new server host which should be able to better support our needs (and prevent randomly-occurring downtime), but moving to them will require some planned downtime time.
The plan is for this downtime to begin at approximately 13:00:00 EDT on April 10th, 2020 (tomorrow). The site will be put into maintenance mode and will remain in maintenance mode for at least an hour. However, it could take up to 24 hours for the site's URL to successfully direct to the new server.

We recommend joining the Discord server for real-time updates on the transfer progress.

Thank you for your patience! We'll see you on the other side.

Once again, the famed Dragon's Dilemma¢¢ has returned (for one day only). Enter the biomes and make your choice¢and see if you survive. You may even get something from it if you choose wisely.

In addition, many of the adult sprites have been replaced with vastly better versions, but again only for the next day. Enjoy them while they last.
