Sup Volties,
Seems like you guys just can't get enough of me this month! We've been pretty busy, haven't we? You all are in for a little break with the end of the Solstice celebration, but you still have your work cut out for you with those snazzy new Collector's set and the unlocked Milestone item.

We now have even more items to announce, but these shouldn't come as a surprise.
New commons are released on the 15th each month, so let's see what's in store!
