The Chrysalis Update: Difference between revisions
From Wings of Fire: The New World Wiki
(Drafting the start of a page for the Chrysalis Update with Bog’s permission. Do not look, it’s still ugly. Maybe we should have an updates category; the update that added Pantala would also be a good candidate for a wiki page, among others. Granted, the blog already exists. I’ll leave considering that to Bog and Heron for now.) |
(Jesus Christ, that’s a lot. I have screenshots on hand for the reference section, will get this done hopefully before lunch.) |
