Time to knock out some side-quest hunts.

I beat the Griffin, and get Blackthorne his materials.

Blackthorne is in a creative funk. Time to help him out.

I start a new side quest chain – killing monsters for food!

Clive is reunited with his uncle.

I launch a sneak attack on the Black Shields.

The official ways in are closed, so we have to use a more sneaky route.

I make my way back into Imperial Territory.

I learn about a couple of new HQ mechanics.

I save an old friend from bandits.

Clive’s mother has intensified her efforts to eliminate the Bearers.

I take on a quick side quest to keep our boat working.

I continue my exploration.

I explore our new home.

Clive has taken over as leader of the Resistance.

We destroy the Mother Crystal – but at a cost.

I reach the chamber leading to the heart of the Mother Crystal.

The mines are flooded with magic radiation, which has turned the guards and miners into zombies.

We try to sneak in a side entrance, but quickly go loud.

I, and the writers of the game, would really like to make our thoughts on slavery clear.

I continue to explore how badly Bearers are treated, in ways that are honestly not too far off from some historical reality of the mistreatment of slaves.

I take on a few more side quests.
