    Mythic Passage
    A great project is underway at Teren's Grasp in Kylong Plains! Come join the marvelous scholars of the Deepwater Circle as they work tirelessly to empower the Combine Spires, under the rigorous direction of The Duality. They're offering an extensive list of items in exchange for your assistance gathering arcane energy sources, collecting luclinite, defending newly erected propylons, and creating teleportation aspects. There's something everyone can do, no matter how experienced!

    [IMG]

    Maximum experienced players receive a summons in the mail requesting their presence in The Duality's Vigilant Sanctum, once more. Inside, the adventuring level 110 players can speak with the Duality, and the tradeskill level 110 players can speak with Head Scholar Nabihan to learn how they might lend their skills to the situation.

    From the pictures it looks like a return to Thalumbra or perhaps another Kunark.

    If it is Kunark again that could mean Epic 3.0 is in the works.

    In before someone says it Lucilin.

    I want something added to Antonica.... map extension or something. Antonica was always great.

    Ah, but the article mentions collecting luclinite, so ... well, time will tell.

    Looks like this prelude event will be a little bit different from years past. Looking forward to checking it out :)

    Sweet. Another bunch of underground areas that use the intestinal tract color palette.

    I love a good throw-up hue to play the game on. Makes everything feel more real.

    More intelligent mushrooms with eyeballs? Ugh. Would prefer slightly more realism and better detail in rendition. Its why I don't play WOW, don't like their cartoonishness. Ive got a suggestion for another expansion though, how about raising up the ground and draining off some of the waters to connect the lands between Qeynos and Freeport. Seriously, I miss being able to take the long runs though between the two areas, and High pass being a High pass.... of the old eq1. Making the seas swimmable and running personally owned ships over it would be neat too. (and yes, do have the personal house galleon too). Will love it if Lucan and the Shir Val are both reintroduced. Maybe would just have to add another appearance factor choice to the Kerran for that rather than a whole rework to do so too that way? Either way , looking forwards to seeing more of the old eq1 style content added if that is what it is. :D

    Mythic Passage- Collecting luclinite, firing up ye old Combine Spires, looks like some shissar and some reishi mushrooms. Hmm, I wonder where this is going?

    Assuming they are what I think they are, they had eyes in EQ1 as well. Mushroom folk are a long-standing staple in EQ lore.

    Well, considering we had the Deepwater bit, what with the underwater prestige house, the watery-themed CE building block recipe book (and the Brackish Water incredible house items! :D), the flying water elemental "horse" mount, etc., looks like we're going to something like the Elemental Plane of Earth. ;->

    Wasn't there something about the Plane of Fire in there, other than just special new Scorched Sky stuff? I didn't pay much attention to the adventure part of CD, it must be said. If not, that'll probably be the next GU or expac after this one. ;->

    The fourth picture is the Nexus having been redecorated by the Shissar. So I think the next expansion is going to Luclin.

    Hey, very cool! :D

    So, they're rebuilding from the core out? :D
