Heatwave

The Heatwave is a weather event that happens whenever Marada becomes unseasonably warm, becoming hotter than summer itself. Although this mostly affects Biala Mountain, other areas such as Enpiah and Kamilah Desert have brought in some strange, new things.

What happens whenever there is a Heatwave in Marada? Well..[]

All Island, Shaved and Summer coloured pets will receive FREE training at the Gym and Elite Gym and FREE lessons at the School and University.
The retired Summer Treasure Chest will be back on sale at the Account Upgrades Shop and will automatically retire again when the weather changes.
The Snowman is melting - Biala really can't cope in this heat! Obviously this means he won't be able to give out quests.
Borak quests will reward BBQ Tools instead of the usual Cooking Utensils. These can only be earned during a heatwave and will be needed for a BBQ feature in the future.
There is very little wind and conditions are calm even in Vortex Park! The Windmill is barely spinning, but if you do wait for it to stop, you will be guaranteed to gain 2 stats for your pet.
The Earth Fairy is a climate expert and has once again warned the citizens about climate change in Marada. To spread her message, she is rewarding DOUBLE item and DOUBLE MP reward prizes during the heatwave. She was once again quoted saying: "Unless we act fast, this warm weather will be permanent."
To help farmers out during this heat, the Account Upgrades Shop has a 2 for 1 promotion on all Fertiliser.
To adapt to the new weather, the Frozen Food Shop is now restocking gourmet Melted Frozen Food instead. These items are only available during a heatwave.
The Kamilah Desert is having some of the hottest temperatures on record! They're used to the heat, however, and are coping so far. However, the Sultan has had to DOUBLE the cost of his tax to help pay for the air conditioning bills!
Turns out the Kamilah Desert isn't totally coping with the extreme heat. All of the Candles Shop stock has melted, and there are 63 new Melted Candles now restocking instead. These items are only available during a heatwave.
The Smoothies, Soft Drinks and Ice Cream Shops all have a 2 for 1 special on all items.
It's so hot in Biala that elves have stopped making Toys. In the meantime, the Toy Shop still has to make an income, so it is now restocking 63 different Twigs that they had in storage, waiting to be made into toys.
