The astute among you will notice that this is not Saturday - it is, indeed, Sunday. I was rather swamped yesterday, so I had to postpone this until today.
This week is a build week and the newest build can be found: here or from the bar up top.
We've got a couple of graphical updates this week along with some additions and a new EIR encounter; which I guess technically isn't found anywhere yet as it is for an area that will be added in an update which should be coming soon.
Anywho, changelog!

The Tiiru Tööräätenaaraa'idar, also featuring the new AOE mask
The Tiiru are found in the northern reaches of Goldrath, near the Cervine homelands. The trees are the favorite growing areas of Cervine moss, which is used in more traditional Cervine crafting. As such, the gathering caste of the Cervine are generally considered to be their most physically resilient.
The Cervine homeland is surrounded by barren ground, almost all plant matter having been killed and absorbed by the Tiiru. The Cervine worry not about invasion - even the Leonen have decided that it is not worth what they would gain; the Tiiru would need to be uprooted before the land would be worth anything to them and it is much more difficult to uproot a Tiiru than it is a traditional tree, as their root systems are large, dense, and constrictive.
It is a rite of passage for the young gatherers to venture alone into the barren Naaraavaanet, the dream lands, to gather as much Cervine moss as they can muster. Many fail and are felled by the parasitic nature of the Tiiru, but those that survive are ranked and placed into appropriate families based on their performance. Those that fail to bring anything back are stripped of their gatherer titles and forced into the merchant caste - the lowest in their society.
A quick, ugly shot of the new pines, along with the updated sheets material. I only uploaded this because I noticed that I had it, heh. :p
Anywho, that's all for this week. If you have questions, concerns, opinions, or bugs which you wish/need to share with us, you can e-mail us at cloudsofglassgames@gmail.com
Until next time,
