We have officially cleared US customs! The shipment is expected to reach Orlando today and should arrive at the Quartermaster Logistics distribution hub next week. I am currently awaiting final confirmation from our freight forwarder to lock in the timeline.
Good News on Tariffs
We have excellent news regarding customs fees. To our pleasant surprise, several items received tariff exemptions that we didn’t anticipate. While there was still a small fee, the total was significantly lower than expected, so we have decided to absorb the cost entirely.
This means there will be no further charges for you.
I have removed all additional pending charges from your BackerKit surveys. As a result, some of you may see a slight "credit" on your profile; this is simply a byproduct of the batch update process to ensure no one was overcharged. You won’t pay a cent more—we’ll call it even. You can use that credit against any digital file available on the Pledge Manager, but bear in mind that you will probably need to pay something on top, and since the survey is locked, you will have to email me at [email protected] to make changes.
New Short Story Available!
By now, you should have received a download link via Backerkit for a new short story set in the world of Valraven. Written by Sean Newton, The Vestiges of Pain is a 35-page dive into our setting, available in both PDF and ePub formats.
This story serves as a potential first chapter for a longer arc. We would love to know if you're interested in a full novel or a collection of stories, so please share your thoughts in the survey and comments below. (Writing a quality novel is a massive undertaking, so please keep in mind that a full-length book would be a separate, paid release.)
We hope you enjoy The Vestiges of Pain and that it inspires your own sessions of Valraven: The Chronicles of Blood and Iron.
I’ll be back in touch as soon as the goods reach the hub and I have a clear shipping timeline to share.
