::Summer festivities continue in Dereth, as heroes sample both new footwear and new cooking. And while many have been busy waxing poetic and wishing upon the shooting stars, none should dare grow complacent -- but instead prepare for momentous and impending events. Beginning in September there will be lots of exciting changes for all players to enjoy as we approach our one-year anniversary -- making sure we celebrate AC's first birthday the way it should be done!
::<br>As part of this update, a new game feature has been added, one that players have been discussing for quite some time -- secure trading! Players will soon be able to use in-game resources to make transactions fair and safe for all parties involved. There'll be no more need for middlemen, no more chance for outright theft. Instead, players will be able to negotiate trades, whether it be healing kits for gemstones, yoroi sleeves for an ivory tachi, or motes for matty coats! Also, those adventurers with particularly well-developed craft skills will find that secure trading allows them to set up an actual in-game business. Imagine -- alchemists, fletchers, and cooks able to sell their wares with complete security. Player-run pie shops and healing tents can operate with the same legitimacy as any NPC equivalent!
::<br>Secure trading has come about in large part due to the expressed wishes of the players. Please note that we are listening, and have been making such appropriate changes when able. For now, we hope you enjoy the new secure trading resource coming soon!
::<br>Take part in this incredible on-going story -- and we'll see you in Dereth!
