Dear people of Soledad,

the sun here in Italy is unforgiving these days, but the scent of kapok blooms is relegated to our imaginations only as we work on The Roots of Soledad.

For the English edition, we have completed the revision of all text, for both the cards and the guidebook. It was a team effort that helped us focus on the details and keep as many inaccuracies out of the text as possible.

For the Italian edition, Oscar is done translating all the cards and is about to start working on the rules.

Meanwhile, Maria is working on the graphics to make the book richer, with additional art for the Location cards and card backs for every kind of deck.

Matthijs is setting up some demo games and spreading the word, because we want this campaign to be just the beginning. If you have any tips on places that would love to hear about Soledad, we’re all ears!

All in all, we can say we’re working perfectly according to our original schedule, and on track to go into print by the end of July.

This lets us start preparing the ground for new magic of a darker, more cryptic nature. If you hear the babbling waters, fear not: it is only the secret pool, beckoning to you. Soon you will learn more.
