### The end of the story
- **Thessaly, the Voice of the Void**: a new boss in the Abyss, summoned with the **Echo of Thessaly** found in the
Crystal Temples. Three-phase fight, with Voidling reinforcements.
- **The Void Entity** now has two scripted stages, at 50% and 25% health.
- **A final, permanent choice** at Aldric's:
- **Save**: Thessaly returns to the Ruin as an endgame merchant.
- **Free**: she leaves **Thessaly's Tear**, which gives Regeneration and Night Vision while you carry it.
- Aldric has new after-ending dialogue, different for each choice.
### Reputation and contracts
- The Consortium and the Order each have a **reputation** (`/reputation`) and **3 ranks**, with a reward per rank.
- **Repeatable contracts** across 4 tiers: deliveries, and bounties on the Silent and on Voidlings.
- At rank 2, Ysolde and Thalia open an **elite shop**.
### A living world
- **Void Breach** (Age III and up, at night): a rift opens near the player and spawns 3 waves of monsters. Close it
to earn Shards.
- **Aether Tide** (Age II and up, by day): Haste and Luck for every player for 5 minutes.
### The Capital
- The **Foundation Stone** (Age II): place it at the heart of your town. Right-click it to measure what you have built.
- **4 tiers**: Hamlet, Town, City, Capital. They need beds, lights, storage and key machines, and give bonuses within
48 blocks (Regeneration, Haste, Resistance).
### Great Works
- **8 giant production challenges** (Ages III and IV): 1024 iron ingots, 512 brass, 256 AE2 processors…
Progress is kept from one delivery to the next.
- Final challenge: **The World Factory**.
### Creative items
- **18 creative items** can be crafted at Age VI: Creative Motor, Creative Blaze Cake, AE2 cells, Mekanism cubes,
IE accumulator, etc. It is a very expensive 5×5 recipe on the Mechanical Crafter, using Abyss materials.
- Create Encased's **Creative Casing** no longer has its cheap original recipe.
### The quest book
- **898 quests in 43 chapters** (up from 680 in 32), in English and French.
- **9 new mod guides**, including a Decoration page: every gameplay mod now has its own quests.
- New chapters: faction contracts, The Capital, Great Works.
- Automatic tasks now have a real title (they used to read "Stage: aldric_8").
### Rule changes
- The **Uncrafting Table** (Twilight Forest) no longer uncrafts items. It keeps its other uses.
### Fixes
- The "Enhanced Celestials 2 is here!" announcement no longer shows on every login.
### Known issues
- The 0.1 issues are still there (Void Moon purple sky from Age I, early cultists).
- Open Void Breaches are forgotten when the server restarts (the monsters stay).
- Prices, rewards and boss health are still provisional.
