Message from the authors

Greetings, friends.

Happy upcoming New Year to everyone! Another year has passed, which in my opinion has been a breakthrough in the creation of our modification for many reasons. Even though there were plenty of problems along the way.

I wanted to make you happy today with news about the storyline of the Water Mages, but unfortunately I can’t. Although it is fully written and scripted by me in the game, I thought I would manage to finish testing it by the New Year. But sadly… For certain reasons – I took a two-week break due to serious real-life issues – I didn’t have enough time to do it. At this moment, the storyline is tested exactly up to the point of entering Jarkendar. So all further testing will be left for 2026. I’ll start right after the holidays. And it’s also time to slowly start working on the Mercenaries. So prepare your suggestions about them and write them in the comments. From a story perspective, the Mercenary Guild is the most ambiguous, so any suggestion regarding them will definitely be considered.

Otherwise, I wish you all the best in the New Year, and here are a few screenshots from the mod related to the Water Mages’ storyline – what I can show without spoilers.

Happy New Year and see you in 2026!
