The Blisscast Journal

I forgot to give this an excerpt initially. Sorry about that. Basically, the Anniversary is upon us once again, so there's a few things that we wanted to let you all know about that's been going on behind the scenes.

What is it that matters to you the most in this world? Is it a fond memory? Maybe a familiar place? Could it even be a person? And how far would you go to ensure that thing remains safe? If you could, would you try to defy fate? Would you deny your own destiny? Would you even try to twist the very fabric of time itself?

Join us as we take a look back at what 2025 brought us here on the site, whilst also taking a glance toward what awaits us in 2026.
