Hi guys, firstly thank you for waiting, I was expecting this update taking so long to annoy some people but I've had very kind support, the update has taken a while due to several PC issues, bits of code being lost (which I managed to restore) and a few personal issues which have slowed me down a little, but finally after just short of two months the update is ready, it's got tons and tons of new things to even if you ignore the vampire city part of the update! thank you for the continued support and enjoy the update!
**THE CITY OF STONE**
The Crown jewel of the update is something that halfway through development I realized the majority of players won't find unless they are purposely searching for it, which in a way is slightly depressing considering how much work it's taken! none the less this adds an entire vampire city hidden in the canyons of the Drylands, once discovered you'll unleash vampires into the world, trade with them, fight them, arrange deals with them and explore their city, with taverns and bards, hidden towers of magic with mazes, batracing, special buildings and even an arena with beast fights!
