A whole new area!

It was a pretty lazy weekend, just spent some time without the Toolset. But before that I created a new area to the city of Endia. It was made on the spur of the moment, sorta, but now is an important link in the story - it gives important background information and hints of the future.

Otherwise the area isn't anything special :( Just a few encounters, a couple of new items and some testing with a more creepier mood. Who could have quessed purple works so well on walls in the right lighting. Well, creating the area took my mind off the somewhat monotonous dialogue writing.

Today I've written the dialogue of 3 non-major NPCs that act as servants in the Four Houses. Each has unique topics and personality. The last one was a blast to write. Now it's time to finish the dialogues for the four Magicas. Then I need to write several quests and journals...finally do the companion dialogues! After those, all I have to do is testing, tweaking, adding some more monsters and designing the final battle! I only wonder if there's a way to disable the player's ability to pause... If there is, the finale will be pretty much candy for the eyes and the ears.

If not, maybe it will just be challenging.
