Sneak peek to the Lore scene. Lore will be added to the lore book as you play. This will be part of the game, not a dlc.
It's to increase immersion in the game.

I am so happy. Beta readers and players read the story so far and they cried, smiled, laughed, and loved it. They told me to write a novel too, beyond the game.

I finished writing and now I am going to implement it in Caverns and Dryads. I will add some new features to support things that happen in the story, to combat and other things.
Beta readers are loving the story.

If you have a call to create a game, a story, or an artwork: do it as you wish. Don't do it as others want you to do it. Do it for yourself. Others akin to you will love it.
Listen to your muse. They know what they do.
