Legend of Queen Opala: Origin - Week 43 / 2026

Alright, I managed to add some word-salad to make this update seem bigger than it is!

This week I've covered Arlon, Four Seasons Inn, Smuggler's Route and Fierra Falls.
Castle Warrengard is quickly coming up, and as I've warned earlier, this one might take some time to update due to how massive and involved it is with all the various triggers and cutscenes across multiple maps.

But once I get across that hurdle, I don't think there is another location that is as complex as Castle Warrengard and/or Colussia, so it'll be pretty smooth sailing after that point.
I may release the next beta after finishing the citadel, which would allow you to continue the story until the point you have to cross Smuggler's Route into Harmonia Sands.
It's too early to give an ETA on that, though.

Anyhoo, I'll be getting back to work now!

Yup, still doing what I've been doing! 

This week I finished updating Uncle Dad's Farm, Tower of Descent, Serenity Lake, Immemorial Glade, and should be done with Arlon later today, or tomorrow at latest.
I've also fixed some issues reported from the latest beta...and that's about it!

Super short post for today, but that sometimes happens when you do it weekly!

The latest beta was indeed released over the weekend!
Most of the workload leading up to that was finishing updating the camp and tweaking/fixing a few minor things, with the two days of this week involving finishing Valley Checkpoint and Desert Checkpoint.

Not much more to add, so that'll be it for today and I'll see you again next Tuesday!

Aaaand that's a wrap on Summer Cove and Whitehaven!

I still need to double-check some things and update two characters at the camp site, although everything else should be ready for the next beta to hopefully hit this weekend.
That one will cover the High Lord Gathering arc and let you finish everything up until you have to cross River Checkpoint!

So with that short Tuesday drop, I'll see you next week!

Week 39 Minus One...apparently!
Since last Tuesday I've finished updating River Checkpoint, Royal Cottage and Gentlemen's Club, with the last one in the list taking a bit longer than expected and the middle one having a potential soft-lock removed. (You can now leave the location at will)

I'm currently in the process of handling Summer Cove, and will hopefully fix the black-screen issue that has been associated with that location for quite some time, related to visiting the spot at night, and then we only have Whitehaven left before the next beta!

So with that, I'll see you next week!

The updated UI is progressing like normal!

Brightstone and Crimson Forest were both finished this week.
Besides that, I also did some bug fixing and added a "Distress Status" tutorial to when Farah joins your party, to better give players an overview of the pros/cons of having it, intentionally or not.

And that's pretty much it really, a short one for this week!

Still hammering away at Brightstone, but almost done!
While certainly not as extensive as Colussia, the town still needed quite a few rewrites due to some of the dialogue being severely outdated with how the current story is.
For example, one of the conversations with Mayor Willheed stated there was never an empress when discussing the previous emperor's children, when clearly you can now find some busts around the Imperial Castle and other places of Empress Alvastasia who was once married to Emperor Augustus before she passed away.

I also slightly changed the dynamic between the two Farah's, emphasizing more on their possible sibling connection, rather than that of a mother/daughter relationship.
I should have Brightstone finished this week, though!

And with that, I'll conclude today's update and be back next Tuesday!
