Hello Illarionites!

Today we bring you a new update. It contains the following changes:

• Enchanting, formerly known as Enchanting of Jewels, has been reworked. This includes new glyph graphics, new glyph effects (with some old returnees) and a new magic tutorial NPC by the name of Terry Ogg who can be found in Troll's Haven to guide you through your first steps of this reworked system.
• Husbandry has been reworked. It now has a larger variety of egg, honey and milk products available for gathering that unlocks at certain intervals of husbandry proficiency, similar to gathering crafts like mining and fishing. These new resources are currently directly edible and can be sold and bought at relevant NPCs. In the future they will be used as ingredients in an upcoming update to the cooking skill.
• Parchments can now be disposed of by burning them via a lit item such as a lit torch or lit candlestick.
• A new horn graphic has been added. The instrumental horn that can be played and the material horn used for crafting are now two separate items. Carpenters can craft the instrumental version, while the material version can be primarily obtained from cattle.
• Cloud Mcgoughey, David and El Cycib have retired, leaving Blight Ronin in Troll's Haven as the only trainer left in Illarion.
• Trap doors and staircases can now be locked. In estate housing players can attach locks to these objects on their own, anywhere else a GM is required.
• A fishing quest bug was resolved.
• As some of you may have noticed, night returned to Illarion a while back as the daytime bug was fixed in between updates. This is just documenting the change that already happened.
• One of the bugs that caused server rollbacks has been fixed.
• Material errors in the housing catalogue for specific stone pillars and chests have been corrected.
• Wall remains, more rock graphics and various dungeon item graphics have been added to the housing catalogue as buildable items for housing estates.
• Ivy can now be grown on walls in housing.
• Some minor backend bugfixes have been fixed.
• The GM tool has received improvements to make it easier on the GM(s).
• Estates in housing now have a quick demolition option that can be used to start from scratch by deleting everything on your property as immersively as feasible. This feature is only available to the tenant themselves, not guests or builders.
• The magic tutorial that has new mages attuning themselves to magic for the first time has had a minor change that introduces you to the magic tutorial NPC in Troll's Haven, Terry Ogg, as part of it.
• A large amount of new drinking and eating vessel graphics have been added to the game. This includes new functionality such as requiring drinking vessels to drink liquors or being able to transfer tea into tea pots or wine into serving jugs for a more immersive experience. Some items such as juice bottles will still be drunk directly from the bottle, although even these have new graphics.
• Town leaders will now be able to use more discretion when it comes to town license requirements for the use of static tools, being able to make individual exceptions rather than always punishing entire realms at a time.
• Honeycombs now have an additional intermediary step of being pressed into honey jars before being used in cooking.

Have fun!
