"850 Years Frozen In Ice" by pixeldream
Deep in Terror Mountains there lay hundreds of beasts, some friendly and some foes. It is a place long-forgotten by explorers, and home to potentially undiscovered Neopet and Petpet species. A lot of people, for a long time, thought that all there was to discover has long been known, but the somewhat recent emergence of the Vandagyre and a few other Petpet species has shown that there is a lot of Neopia we have yet to see. Terror Mountain has a certain scariness to it, it holds in some fearsome secrets and a lot may remain unknown for eternity. Even Dr. Sloth hasn't been able to break through some of the deepest parts. But there was one fabled explorer, a Purple Kougra named Phlonema, who made it her life mission to discover something new... 850 years ago... "Gather the supplies for me, I'm leaving in the morning." The young Phlonema was packing a bag and going over her checklist, speaking with an assistant of hers, a Red Meerca.

Of Weewoos and Potatoes
Inspiration had deserted me completely. I was supposed to be writing, but for the last five minutes I had just been absent-mindedly tapping on my desk with a pencil, staring at a blank page. This story for the 850th issue of the Neopian Times wasn't going to write itself, but at this rate, it seemed that I wasn't going to write it, either.

Finding Home: A Collection of Letters
It was just after sunrise when Veronique the Island Xweetok finally landed on the beach. The salty ocean breeze was warm and comforting, and the soft sway and rustle of the palm trees reminded her she was home, a notion that was more foreign to her than she expected.
