Project Update: #12 - Thank You! + Twilight Spears: Epilogue

Hello Mercenaries,

This battle has been won and the campaign is officially OVER.

But don't despair, one battle doesn't make a war, and our march is still long.

First of all, I would like to say THANK YOU to all of you, veterans of our campaigns or newcomers, who gave us the chance to do this. We're going to do right by you and make the best English edition we can.

It will take time, Valraven is a big game, but it will be worth the wait.

Second, by the end of Overtime Mode we managed to unlock The Birth Scenario. You can read more details about it on the campaign page.

Now, before we take a little rest, there's one last thing we need to address. Who won the battle between Jared and Kyra for leadership of the Twilight Spears?

The Twilight Spears: Epilogue

[The final vote ended with an incredible 50-50 split! If you joined the campaign just before the end you can read the various Seasons here: Blood, Iron, Venom, Destiny]

Kyra attacks, confident in her superiority as a fighter. Jared is not an excellent warrior, so he has learned to compensate for his lack of strength with tactics. After parrying a series of lunges, Jared anticipates Kyra just as his sister is about to deliver the final blow, but to his astonishment, Kyra steps aside and slices cleanly through his sword-holding hand.

Jared falls to his knees, clutching his stump and screaming in pain. "You thought you could trick me? I know you better than you think, a duel is not a game."

Kyra leans over to her brother and helps him tend to the wound, then sounds the horn to summon the Company medic.Jared shudders in pain, tears in his eyes. Kyra helps him to his feet. "Now that you can no longer fight, you must focus on what you do best: management and strategy. Stay as lieutenant in the Twilight Spears and accept my superiority."

Jared draws a smile, twisted by pain. "You are the best, I accept your proposal and will serve you loyally."

Kyra smiles in response and they both walk towards the exit of the cemetery. Jared turns one last time to look at his father's grave. A just revenge must be served cold: today Kyra took his hand, but tomorrow Jared will take back much more.

Here's the final surprise: the Core Book will now include BOTH the Twilight Spears and a new Company-within-the-Company that Jared will lead, aided and encouraged by the Hand of the Abyss.

Cheers!
