+ Replaced the legacy game world with a map which will last and evolve forever
+ Added new building item for player towns: Throne
+ Added new building item for player bases: Groundskeeper
+ Added gardening system for the cultivation of plant based resources in the Drought
+ Added multiple Seeds, craftable items which act as precursors in the gardening system
+ Removed all shrines from the crafting menu
+ Replaced all shrines in player inventories with seeds
+ Changed all pickable resources from glowing colored orbs to representative objects, which dissapear on gather
+ Reduced all gather rates to one per item, this is because the new biomes have many more items per acre than the last world
+ Implemented new Cursed Ones
+ Cursed weapons and items are now dropped by the Cursed Ones, and are not pickable anywhere
+ Added a bank, bottles, and gatherables to the new player spawn area to encourage early engagement from new spawns
+ Added a PVP arena; the Cathedral Garden, where players do not drop loot on death. Kills in this area are displayed as 'defeats' in server chat
+ Rendered the entirety of the Second World as navigable by mobs, to allow free roam mechanics for all creatures
+ Added new item; Cells, which can be farmed in the Gore Rift. Cells are a crucial precursor to another new item, the Blaspheme, which is used in cursing a Throne to temporarily allow raiding within a town's limits.
+ Added new building tier; Amber, which is invincible in range of a healthy Throne
+ Added a GUI compass, which is especially useful when navigating the Drought, which is unmapped
+ Added a Steam store, enterable through the Tab menu. Some elements of the store are still in testing, please report any bugs to Ded or I and we can reimburse for any genuine issues.
+ Added store currency, the Obol. Obols will not be dropped on death, but can be traded between players like any other item
+ Added new item, craftable only with Obols; the Giving. Givings will increase the gather yields on all pickables within a range when used. All players are able to reap the benefits from a Giving which has been used by a single player.
+ Added new crafting ingredient; Minds, which have a 40% drop rate from all creatures.
+ Added new pickable item; Root. This material can be crafted into ramps and planks that can be placed in the center of the map, when other buildings do not go. Root structures dissapear after a short time
