Welcome to V1.5!

In the previous update, I established the Lake of Lightning area, which included an additional boss fight alongside access to a new class, the Apprentice of Air. Now, in this update, I have expanded upon the main questline with the addition of the Forest of the World Tree. This is the area where the open world feature of the game will truly begin to shine, because this next area basically relinquishes all exploration-based control to the player. While none of the maps it connects to have yet to be established (they will all be added in due time), this hub sets the state of the world to come. To access the new area, head to the Pathway Deeper into the Grove, and continue forward. So whats in this new update?

Access to the World Waypoints

World Waypoints offer a way for the player to rapidly traverse across the entire world. Think of them like the in-map Waypoints, but across ALL maps. You will be able to discover these World Waypoints in key locations as you explore the Grove. At any point in time, you can teleport back to the World Tree, and access the World Waypoint menu and thus transport to any location corresponding to a World Waypoint discovered.

Expansion upon the main questline

The main questline continues on with the discovery of Okeiri, the World Tree. This is an ancient tree from times of old, and has much lore and rewards to offer. The purpose of Okeiri in this scenario is to establish the main plot of the Grove: find and slay the Hydra Jhiik. With Okeiris help, it is clear where Jhiik dwells. However, being such a powerful dragon means the player must prepare. Opened up is now main routes to various places in the Grove that can contain new elemental Tomes, similar to the Tome of Air from the last update. Upgrading your Units and establishing your army will be pivotal when it comes to facing Jhiik.

This ends the blog, best wishes checking out what the Forest of the World Tree has to offer! Thanks for checking out Fragment's Moonrise!
