Foolish Godir,
You thought our return was merely jest, yet here we stand before you. Behold the might of Myrrida, our grand ruins and beautiful creations. Our work has only begun as we start our improvements of the Realms within the Astral Sea.
The Ogre 1.1 Update brings a few adjustments to the Crystal Dwelling and adjacent systems while fixing a bunch of bugs. The Ogre Update was immensely helpful in tracking and addressing issues for the official release of Giant Kings on April 1st. The fixes we deliver today are things that could no longer be included in our Day 1 Version or that were reported in the days following our Launch.
As Spring begins to take root, we hope you continue to enjoy Giant Kings and the Ogre Update.
May your Pantheons Thrive
