[Pythia]

Hello there, Abandonians. I am Pythia, the Prophet. I have been asked to come here and help you see a glimpse of what the future holds.

We're standing at crossroads. This year is at an end. People are insecure about the future of Abandonia, and reminiscing the past. This is a place of nostalgia, on so many levels.

Now, I have a gift, that lets me see things unhappened. I have traveled wide and far, seen kings and emperors, warlords and heroes, to guide them and council.

Now let us proceed. The future is not as bleak as many may see it. There will be bad things, of course, but there will also be great things.

Love

There will be love. New, fresh, young love. The members have already joined, but do not know each other well by now. That will change early on the next year.

They will meet in the living world by the end of next year and will be very happy.

But another couple will split. A couple that has already formed. One of them is active, but the other is a mere lurker.

Future of Abandonia

Ooh, this is juicy. I see a saviour. A knight in a shiny armour. He shall help us in ways nobody could have imagined were possible. He will come with new ideas, new points of view and bring you all hope. He will keep those ideas hidden for a while, but then emerge into the open. Just wait.
He is already in your rows.

The Old King shall return, but not for long.

Old Abandonians

More old Abandonians are yet to return. Some of them only for a moment, others will linger on. They will be welcomed greatly.

New Abandonians

There will be an increase in new Abandonians, too. They will need guidance at first, but in time they will become solid and helpful members. Some of them will come as a good surprise.

Politics

There will be a change in the row of leaders. Old ones will go out, new ones will come in. Controversial, but will prove good in the end.

Now I have told you what I know of the future here. My duty here is done.
Just remember. There will always be those testing your patience. But there are also friends and allies.

May the new year bring you hope and happiness.
