Welcome to update 1.10!
Grandmaster Areus looked over the collection of scrolls and tomes recently delivered to his personal library. Within their pages were the experience of adventurers and scholars, wise men and mad men, the living and the dead.
The creatures of the Sacred Grove, relegated to myths and folklore for so long, had turned out to be quite real. Furthermore, they were emerging from the Plateau, which concerned the Grandmaster more than a little. He picked up the first tome and began to skim it for any mention of the deerfolk and treefolk or the Grove itself. After all, the Order’s purpose was not only to gather knowledge, but to put it to use.
This month's update brings the second Festival of the Sacred Grove and its featured hero Cervidus, as well as new challenges with two new Hero Adventures, and changes to XP Books. Additionally, some balance changes and bug fixes await!
