Chapter 20 was announced in Beta this morning
From Marindor
Shortly after the Sorcerers have taken Peregrim into custody and brought him out of the city to discuss his future fate, the Woodelf queen Ahskahala arrives in the city because her husband has not returned. King Aelrindel is still turned into a tree and Ahskahala's magical powers alone cannot solve the curse. For the proud Woodelves it is unthinkable to ask the hated Sorcerers for help. Therefore Ahskahala calls Peregrim's sister Luania from the woods - a powerful Woodelf who can combine the healing powers of Mana and music.
Luania manages to solve Aelrindel's curse with the help of an aria that she holds from a small stage that is set up in the city. Aelrindel and Ahskahala then demand that Dean Durcu surrenders Peregrim to try and punish him according to the laws of their people - that is the least that the Sorcerers can do for the Woodelves after they brought so much mischief over the forest. Durcu agrees to the proposal and has Peregrim brought back to town. Peregrim, cursed and betrayed, is still foaming with rage, but without his magical powers he is no longer a threat to the city. Luania tries to defend her brother: He is not the mad scientist and cold-hearted villain that everyone now sees in him: It is the curse that has clouded his mind, and it is precisely this curse that must now be removed from him. Unfortunately, her magical powers are not enough to free her brother from his curse. It has since eaten too deeply in his heart to hear the healing sounds of Luania's voice.
Will you be able to help Luania prove that her brother is not the evil person everyone thinks he is, or is he exactly what everybody expects, and should he be punished? Find it all out in this new chapter in the story of Elvenar!
The Settlement
With the arrival of the new chapter, comes the next tier of Ascended Goods, allowing your Merchant to trade not 6, but 9 Goods in total (after upgrading your Trader to level 9).
The challenge for this chapter will be that some settlement production buildings will need to be placed directly next to your manufactories and others need to be (directly or indirectly) linked to the portal building in order to work. Over the course of the chapter you'll find that you'll need gradually more city space for your settlement buildings and you'll need to make strategic choices in what to produce and which resources to use for what purpose.
Of course, the new chapter will bring new city map expansions, upgrades and units. The city grid will also be expanded. At the end of Chapter 20, you will be able to unlock 2 brand new Ancient Wonders:
Scout's Tavern (5x3)
Reduces scouting times
and produces Ghastly Banshees
Ancestral Resting Place (4x7)
Reduces decay of Ascended Goods
and increases the amount of Neighborly Help chests
We hope that Chapter 20 - The Power of Music will provide you with new challenges and an exciting new storyline, and we are looking forward to hearing your feedback in our discussion thread!
Kind regards,
Your Elvenar Team

Goodness me, have I been here nearly 3 years already? I arrived in Elvenar just in time to catch the last couple days of the Autumn Zodiac event. That was in mid October, 2019. Even though I didn't have time to do much in the way of quests, I still got a big bowl full of nuts building, and I was pretty proud of that for a long time. I had to eventually part with it. Gosh, I wish we'd had teleports back then. I would have saved it just for the memories.

For everyone at the end of chapter 19 and waiting for chapter 20 to release, 6 of the last 7 chapters were added to Live between 12 and 18 days after release on Beta, so be prepared, in case we get another short release gap for 20.

Because raccoons are related to bears.

Well, we did have the Red Panda, which isn't really a bear, so to speak. Sort of an upscale trash panda, actually.

Finally! Expansions
I checked when I saw your message and I have 23 of them in inventory. I guess I'm an expansion hoarder. Now that I'm getting ready to start chapter 11, I think I'm going to have to place one. I'm getting the itch. lol.

New Tome in the Autumn event now on Beta. As with other recent Tomes in crafting, it will require 2 of the event's artifacts to make it.

Seems logical to me - in the midwest they are commonly known as Trash Pandas

6% when 1st placed. Drops it to 94%. To be honest, that doesn't matter much to me since I have completed 706 provs and keep scouting. Getting an extra chest each day would do more for me. Though, I don't know if I'll place the AW.

That is actually better than I had expected. Most AWs are structured so they increase a full order of magnitude every 5 levels. So a level 6 AW is twice as powerful as a L1 version and a L11 version is 3 times as powerful as a L1. Assuming it follows this trend, you would be getting a -24% reduction in scout times by L16. Not bad!
