Hello again, Freelancers! We hope you all had a happy holidays indeed, and while some of us might still be getting up to speed again in 2020, we do hope you've had some extra time to spend in Bastion on your various holiday breaks.

As for us, we’re rested and excited, but we haven’t been dormant. Icetide continues and we’re ready to face the cold with you. Have you been enjoying it thus far? Be sure to let us know! You have no idea just how valuable your feedback is to us.

Additionally, lore stories have resumed, penned from our talented storycrafters. Look out for the next one this Thursday, but be sure to catch up on the one that just went live over the break: Korox in the Box. It’s a poem about Icetide, though there are no red sleighs or eight tiny reindeer like in the ones you might be used to.

There’s so much that we haven’t explored with you yet, even just about characters you know (and don’t know). It’s always nice to get to share some of those little bits when the right occasion arises. We hope you enjoy these pieces as much as we enjoy making them!

With that, let’s get into the details for this week.
