[As the new year rolls in, a deep cold settles into Kaisou. Best bundle up and make sure your heat is on. In the sky, the spirit vein shifts from hues of white and gold to hues of blues. As the clock hits midnight and many of the older app users are well into drinking, the blaring alert sound that comes with a new Zodiac post. The alert will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will take over your phone until you read and comment to the message.]

Hello! Thank you for using the Libra App!

Happy New Year! We've reached the new year, and what a year 2022 was! So many incredible and memorable things happened in the past year, it's hard to know where to start! We thank everyone who has been along for the journey of the first year of the Libra app, whether you were with us from launch day or if you just joined today. Your time and engagement with our platform really means the world to us!

We're looking forward to another exciting year with everyone! Let's make 2023 our year, shall we?

Now, as a quick aside among all these new year celebrations, we wanted to report that we have been looking into the unusual changes some of you have been experiencing. While we're still trying to figure out the exact reason it's happening, we did notice that despite our earlier proclaim that the Spirit Vein's barrier was showing signs of healing - we perhaps jumped a bit too quickly on early data. In fact, it seems that early data was nothing more than an outlier and well... the spirit energy level within the city is actually higher than it's ever been, and the exposure to that energy might be what's causing the recent mutations.

While we're not sure why these changes are happening and what can be done to reverse them, don't worry! We're looking into solutions to this problem and let you know as soon as we find something. In the mean time, since it's the start of the new year, we recommend viewing this as a new challenge that could encourage growth! There's been no reports so far of these changes being lethal or harmful, so perhaps you can garner a whole new set of experiences from them!

But with that news out of the way, we encourage you to not let these things get in the way of enjoying the holiday and reflecting on the past year! So now we'll leave you with our icebreaker, and our first annual Libra Unwrapped. Enjoy!

Happy New Year from Zodiac!


[As you finish reaching the message, the app will change to one of end-of-year videos that show off stats like how many times a person has commented, active days, which people they message the most, etc. There is also a slideshow of photos that depict "memorable times" of the year - like the time you fought a dragon or played death soccer or ate at dennys! It's not clear how some of these photos were taken, but that's not important right? For brand new users of the app, the only photo they have is a selfie shot of the expression they made when the app opened. ]

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and userpics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone. Demyx and Sora will be around the city with no memories of the app. Meanwhile Five will be nowhere to be found.

Like always, there'll be no responses from Zodiac. ]

I did, and up until the app showed up on my phone I had an incredibly normal and boring life. But turns out my past self was a ghost hero, so what can you do?

You were a ghost hero in the past? Sounds very fascinating to me.

As for me, I have spent most of my life trying to hide my water magic and that I can sense spirits from everyone else, including my own family. It feels weird being the only one in the family with magic.

It took a while, but I'm starting to see the bright sides to it now. [Some of them at least. Flying was nice.]

You know, there's a lot of people here in similar situations. My parents aren't on the app, so I can't really talk about any of this to them. I think they think I'm just going through a really weird and clumsy stage.

And hey! At least you have the advantage of actually knowing something about magic before all of this happened.

Oh wow. So it is not just a me thing after all. I was always scared about using water magic publicly for the longest time. But now I’m actually starting to notice that I’m not alone in this situation.

Anyway, um, thanks. I guess being able to control water to some degree and being able to handle being in cold weather are very handy things to have on hand. Although I am still wondering why I didn’t get fast swimming early on since I am in the swimming team in uni.

Well the good news is that there some kind of filter where people outside of the app don't notice our weirdness. Normally, I mean. There was something going on around Halloween where they could see us and it was a massive pain. but as far as I know its back to normal now. So even if you do something they;ll just think they're seeing something normal and boring.

Whoa! This is pretty intriguing so far. People outside of app not noticing any of our antics and that means nobody may not have noticed my water magic antics all this time.

Yeah, if I can fly through the park in full ghost mode, you can probably get away with some water magic.

Awesome! That’s some comforting words to live by.
