Thanks for the feedback so far folks, keep it coming!

Thanks for the feedback for the Silver Crows storyline. Our plan for the storyline is that certain parts will remain indefinitely, specifically anything related to the building of the Silver Crows camp or organization. So if you happen to join in Season 2 for the first time, you’ll still get the chance to go interview candidates and recruit Zander. The parts that will disappear between seasons is the season-specific storyline, which in the case of Season 1 is anything that has to do with Skye. We want new players to be able to hop into the storyline fairly rapidly, and we also want to make sure that the story feels relevant to the current season.

The story of Season 2 will be very different than the story of Season 1, and our end goal here is to make sure Aeternum feels like a living and breathing world, so as the season ends some POIs and enemies might change as well in preparation for the new Season. New POIs and new characters will be sure to pop up in Season 2 as we continue the tales of the Silver Crows!
