wind up odin is beautiful though i only wish the companion reward was any where near its level.
Actually its designed so you can interrupt your subscriptions from what I read on it. You can paid 2 months straight take 3 months break than pay for another month and you would be at 3 months subscription paying, getting the 3 month sub reward.
