Alayna had forgotten the time when she last celebrated her birthday, if it wasn't for the system that issued a mission that left her speechless, she would have completely forgotten about this.
[MISSION: Celebrate your birthday with everyone and in any way, you see fit. REWARD: 2 lotto draws.]
Thanks to this, Alayna remembered about this day and was now forced to organize a birthday party for herself. She didn't trust anyone to organize such a ceremony on her behalf.
It was her big day and she wanted it to be beautiful. And it being beautiful, it also meant that her kids should be present. So, she sent a message to Neal to have him return for this day. She didn't care where he was, he had to come back home.
The same was true for Olinda who was doing well at the medical valley sect and knowing that Alayna's birthday was coming, the elders began to prepare as well.
