What has changed in the realm, newest first.

Stone that looks like stone

2 October 2026 · version 0.38

Castle and city walls are built of proper masonry now: big dressed stones in tall and low courses, each its own shade, catching the light along the top and with deep, shadowed joints. Here and there a crack, a stain or a little moss.
Towers and gate lintels no longer stretch their stones out of shape.
On a phone, the front page darkens only the very edges, so the world behind the login shows.

Behind the login, the world itself: the view circles slowly over Saltcrown's Grand Market and its walls, framed in black.

On a phone or tablet, tap to walk and act, and press and hold for the menu of choices — on the world, in your backpack, the bank and the shops.
Drag with one finger to turn and tilt the camera, and pinch to zoom.
On a narrow screen the side panel's tabs sit along the bottom: tap one to open it, and tap it again to close. The chat sits above them, and every window fits the screen.
Creating a character fits a phone too: the choices sit on three tabs, Body, Top and Legs, beside a small preview.

Castle walls and city walls can now run at any angle, diagonals included, with towers at their ends and corners and gates that open as one.
Remains dropped on the ground now show what they are, a rat's small and big remains big, instead of a pouch.
The bank's menu speaks English: Deposit 1 and Deposit all.

Jewellery is worth less to the shops now: plain pieces, set ones and above all enchanted ones. Shops no longer pay more for a piece than its bar, stone and shards cost.

A new quest: once you have told the barkeeper in Clyffside of the wreck, the barkeeper has a letter for the harbourmaster at the Port of Falbridge.
The harbourmaster now keeps watch on the pier, and knows every ship by its creak.

The land goes on east now, all the way to a new coast. A road leaves Clyffside past the wizard's hut and runs down off the plateau towards it.
The Wayside Inn stands by the road: food and drink, gossip, beds upstairs, a well in the yard and a stable across the road.
At the end of the road is Saltcrown, the walled capital of House Marlowe. Castle Marlowe looks down on it from its hill, and so does everyone else.
Crown Street runs from the great gate to the Grand Market, past a terrace of tall houses and the bank of House Marlowe.
On the Grand Market: stalls and a fountain, and House Marlowe's trading house with the main coupon desk. Around it the merchants' mansions, a jeweller's with moulds, cut gems and finished pieces, a goldsmith's workshop with a furnace for casting your own jewellery, and Marlowe Fine Arms for iron and steel.
The church of the Seven Crowns keeps seven candles burning. House Marlowe's is lit first, naturally.

Beds are two tiles long now, and there are double beds two tiles wide.
Three kinds of each: an ordinary wooden bed, a king's bed with gilded ends and a crimson coverlet, and a bedroll on the floor.
