By the light of the moon we would sit by the shore and listen as the waves rolled in, the steady pulsing tide having quite the soothing effect. In the summer, you could close your eyes and breathe in deep the sea air. You could almost taste the tang of salt with every breath. In the springtime, fragrant flowers bloom a bit away from the shoreline, the sweet aroma of the flowers mixing with that sharp salt scent. In the sky, the birds wheel, hunting for game, or just soaring on the wind.  Their cries split the air and reverberate over the hills.
I can close my eyes and remember it all, even now. The keen sharpness of the air in Autumn when the storm winds begin to blow and the seas became wild.  A harsh mistress she is, and yet you cannot help but love her.  She gives life of her own, just as she claims life.  All those who live near the sea are keenly aware of this, and though we are long gone from sandy shores she stays with us still, singing the siren song of yesterday when brave adventurers sailed the stormy seas, and tempted fate with every bold voyage…

This week's release is a return to Stoneheart Fall!You can reach Stoneheart Fall from Lymcrest in Book 2 (down, right, down from Lymcrest), or you can use the button in the quest log to go there instantly this week!

Thanks to some newly uncovered tech, Tomix was able to add a whole new layer of depth to this quest- and it looks gorgeous. We hope to use this technology to create even more beautiful and wondrous quests in the future!

Unfortunately, due to an earlier typo in the code from when it was first released, you will need to redo the quest "Dive In" (if you have already completed it) in order to access the new quest.

This week, you'll be continuing True Mortal's quest chain!

It’s time to start unraveling the story of Nivalis’ past. Where did he come from? Why is he bent on destruction?

Find out the answers to these questions this friday! But be warned… you might find you have even MORE questions.

The man who stands at a strange threshold,
Should be cautious before he cross it,
Glance this way and that:
Who knows beforehand what foes may sit
Awaiting him in the hall?

Opening line of the Ice Giant History Chant

A message from True Mortal:

We all know things don’t always go the way we like. I had hoped to be able to work a bit more this week, but unfortunately that didn’t work out quite well. I am slowly recovering, and obviously not as fast as I want, but we do what we got to do, and do our best while doing that. I am eager to start drawing again, even if it will cost me more effort to do so. Luckily there is a whole team that is able to help me get through the work that needs to be done! They worked hard to get the quest ready for tomorrow, and I’m very* grateful for that.

In the previous quest, you had your patience tested while in search of the hidden Forest Gate and the guards that stand sentinel there. In this week’s release, you’ll finally be able to fight Wolf and Bear in a boss fight!  The quality they will be testing is Strength. As you might know, strength is necessary, but just one of the many, many qualities you need being a hero. If you succeed in this challenge, your journey will be continued, and as you progress, all the important qualities will be tested!

If you feel up for the challenge that they will put you through, log in Friday!
