There are places people are afraid of – the Dark Weald is one of them. And for a little goblin in distress, even more so! This week we bring you long requested quality of life upgrades, along with a quest and a new zone!

New Content:

• Added the Dark Weald zone, along with a new quest. To start it, talk to Itchyneck near the abandoned mill at Old Guswacha's Firefly Forest.
• Added a new FOE in the new zone. It might hold the last remaining piece of the cursed knight's armour!
• Added a new dexterity weapon, also found deep in the new zone.

Quality of Life Upgrades:

• Added a minimap! The minimap displays points of interest close to you, along with enemies, FOEs, NPCs and other players. You can also use it to know your coordinates, in case you want to tell your friends where to find you!
• The questlog for Guswacha's part of the main storyline will now tell you how many ingredients you still owe her.

Bug Fixes:

• We've fixed a bug in the dialogue system that left players immobile after being resurrected by the resurrectionist.
• We've fixed a different bug in the dialogue system that, when laggy, displayed a single message multiple times in a row.
• We've fixed a bug that made your character walk very slow when clicking a mill or Tarrasaga's tower.

In other news:

• We've updated multiple UI elements to make the game look better.
• Old Guswacha has been revising the recipe for her potion has realized that she only needs five frogs to cook it. She's happy tons of adventurers have given her free frogs for future stews, though. Gloromilda, you've done it again!
• We've added multiple bonfires to the Firefly Forest so you can cook your raw items without going anywhere else.
• Ex-members will now have their member items unequipped after logging in as free players for the first time.
• We've enhanced the descriptions of some items.
• Eating slugs is now considered yucky.

Between Stonehollow and Tarrasaga's Tower lies the Eastern Grove, a mountainous grassland full of animals, treasure and adventure! Join us in this new update as we improve the early sections of the game to continue making it more welcoming for veterans and new players alike!

New Content:

• Added the Eastern Grove zone, east of Stonehollow and west of Tarrasaga's Tower.

Bug Fixes:

• The system that checks if memberships are still active had a hiccup and unsubscribed two players. We've restored their subscription and fixed our process.

In other news:

• Most maps have been graphically revamped at least somewhat.

We've uploaded a patch for two issues that arose in the last update. Ending a conversation with an NPC should no longer move your character to the location clicked to end the dialogue. Also, music transition between maps was broken, so we've fixed it.
