Art & Design

- …On that note, started storyboarding the first cinematic in the prologue!
- Started a new environment for Whiterock Village, a location featured in the new prologue!
- Continued work on the UI, which includes drafts of the menus and a layout for choices and an animation!
- Drafted sketches for new sprites of Edith’s fellow acolytes. (They’re getting speaking roles and need to face the camera!)

Narrative

- Drafted two specific scenes for Chapter 1.
