There's still a great deal of work left on it, and as you'll find out through the teasers, the new island is big, and contain a lot of various things and mysteries.
After a tough life in Thais, I decided it was time to explore the world.
I visited many cities, but there was always a reason not to stay.
I walked through Ab'Dendriel, but it was too overgrown, not by people but by plants.
I went through Kazordoon, but mountains and caves isn't me, I love open areas.
I visited Venore but all it had to offer me was a swamp as long the eye could see.
I took the boat to Darashia, it was nice at first but after a while the dry warm air got to me,
so I continued and arrived to Ankrahmun.
I only stayed there for few minutes, it was hotter and drier than Darashia.
After a long boat ride, I arrived to Liberty Bay, which looks nice but I didn't feel at home there.
Finally, after a great deal of travel, I arrived to Weston.
The second I step foot on that bridge, something sparked in me, love at first sight!
The weather was nice, the air was modest, not too warm, not too cold.
And I think part of the reason I fell for it was it reminded me about Thais, it felt like it could be my new home.
I explored Weston with great interest, and it didn't take long for me to find the city depot.
And I was still thrilled, I love everything I've seen to that point, and I don't think it will change anytime soon.
I even found a cool apartment, and I decided.. I want it..
unfortunately I don't have any money left, I spent it all on my travels.
I found this cool guy, he is part of some sort of clan.. guild.. society. whatever..
He told me that his society pay people various things to hunt and kill creatures that could pose threat to cities and buildings.
As I needed money, I accepted a task, as he called it.
I was going to hunt down trolls, make sure they don't come close of the city.
He told me to go a bit outside the city, and I'd probably find some trolls.
And I sure did, I realized they had a whole camp out there, and I could see why they'd pay hunters to keep them at bay, especially how close they appeared to be to the city.
After a long time of exploring, I almost soiled myself, I was stopped in a cave by pile of stones, and thank god..
I noticed there was a dragon in there, I was lucky, if not for the stones I'd run straight into the teeth of a dragon.
I might be good with my weapon on trolls, but I'm nowhere near experienced enough to take on a dragon!
A few days later, I decided to cash in my task and see if they where still offering other kind of work.
Turns out they had a price on Goblins as well, but I was unsure if Weston had a goblin problem, but sure enough, I was led out of the city once more to explore and try to find the hideout of goblins, and I did find them... after a while..
While I was exploring the deep caves of the Goblins, I found other mysterious creatures, green trolls.
I've never seen them before, I heard Venore used to have a problem with green trolls but I didn't think they existed anywhere else.
After few days at Goblins, I returned to the city and cashed in my task, and I could finally afford my apartment.
However.. I realized I have nothing to use as decoration,
so I might need to explore more and try to find nice things that I can use as decoration.
I heard there's many mysterious things in Weston, and I'm up for the task.
I'm determined, I shall dedicate my life to explore and learn about this wonderful city and island!
