ΒΆ The Freedom of Luta's Lover
After Stalwart Fortress was liberated by Rita and the other Blight-ridden captives from The Prisons of Yore, the travellers rested a while as Luta's Lover was released from their chamber for the first time since being locked up by Remo and his disciples from The Church of Her.
Eager to experiment with the being's power, King Offling tested The Beacon's powers; and it was heard by all. Then, it was used to invite all Artificers to join The Concord of Research.
By appearances, it seems that whenever the owner of Luta The Beacon tweets an intentional broadcast, it will be retweeted by the official @wagdie_eth twitter account.
Shortly after, The Beacon began broadcasting a wide message to guide wandering pilgrims, and the travellers within Stalwart Fortress would debate about what it should communicate.

In the end the travellers voted to have the Linktree highlight the Community Discord and the Wiki.
ΒΆ Invitation of The Crows
As The Dark Blade Guild recount the messiness of the encounter between the prisoners and Remo's band at Stalwart Fortress, they extend an invitating reminder that Yuler's body at The Crow's Den had still not been visited and their supply of Fetid Crow's Talons were yet to be claimed.
ΒΆ World's Expansion
Zell the Cartographer delivers a new map to the travellers, placing it upon the Ancient Stone of the world.
It reveals new locations; The Grand Elevator, Desolate Wastes, Prisons of Yore, and The Wound β as well as the scale of The Forsaken Lands.
As the travellers surveyed the new map, Rita spoke and conveyed appreciation for the help in liberating Stalwart Fortress, the value in freeing Luta the Beacon, and her glee at Gregor's safety. She also spoke briefly of The Glutton β an adorable beast of tremendous appetite, and mentions an empty valley leading to the unexplored Volcanic Lands of the North.
She closes in reminder that she can prepare The Grand Elevator and leaves the travellers to decide where they wish to go next.
π€Where will you go next, traveler?

With option to travel to The Primordial Lands, The Crow's Den, The Descrated Valley, and The Her Church, the travellers decide by narrow margin to head southeast to The Crow's Den.
ΒΆ Beyond This World
On June 20, 2022 members from The Concord of Research invited all travellers to attend a gathering in New York City.
Shortly after the event was made known, word of Monarch Tokens began to circulate, and soon coordinates were revealed, matching the time and location of the planned event.
Though none knew their purpose, there was much fervor surrounding them. When the day of the event came, several travellers found strange, miniature coffins hidden throughout the grounds. Inside these coffins were scrolls of invitation to the concord of The Monarch's Call.
Four were found during the gathering, another two were hidden elsewhere the next day, and others were bestowed them in public.
In total 9 were recovered and redeemed.
Within a week, each would have their wings bestowed.
