We also have an update to Xbox stability in our newest Producer Letter posted today. https://forums.funcom.com/t/producer-letter-on-the-xb1-stability-issues-v/151066

Before you can march onward, you first look back at what you and your scouts have uncovered.

First, the burned parchment - scribbled in coded tongue, perhaps the intent was for it to be destroyed after the command was received, but whatever sorcerous cur in possession of the missive neglected to finish the task. Your scribes were able to decipher the message. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FGWQp9sXoAEQxdp.jpg

Your next clues came from the remains of your scouting parties returning from their task. The survivors, once proud trackers, were transformed into blubbering husks, barely able to speak in full breaths.

With them, they brought hasty illustrations of what they saw, as well as tattered robes adorned with unknown cultists’ markings. The ornamentation could be admired for its craftsmanship if it were not caked with dried mud and the putrid scent of dead men. Gods, that smell. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FGWRC-xXoAkHPPB.png

Later, you dispatch one of your seekers in pursuit of your missing pathfinder to the east. Moons later, they return.

A diary report and roughshod illustration from your pathfinder to the east. The paper torn to shreds and soaked in blood, you can only imagine a similar fate befell your pathfinder; may they finally be at peace after surviving in these blasted lands. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FGWRiGJXIAgPh2I.jpg

The seeker noted the scattered remains of another fallen soul on a nearby overlook, believed to be an ill-fated scavenger who turned over the wrong stone.

Finally, the illustrations themselves. Hastily rendered with whatever materials they brought with them, the images of locations across the Exiled Lands were difficult to scry - but were ultimately no match for the keen eye of your other watchers. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/FGWR5SAXoAAyymm.jpg

Grave matters, indeed. This is but a show of force; but the beginning of something far greater and more terrible. To what end…? Scribe Jimbo is keeping a running ledger of the murmurings of late; you may review his findings at the pavilion noticeboard. https://forums.funcom.com/t/3-0-and-sorcery-speculation-megathread/183616/1
