Welcome to Hinderstap.

The woman stood by the west gate of Lugard, looking out to the west, her hands clenched with worry. Every time a figure approaches the city, she stares fiercely. Then, her shoulders sag as it turns out the traveler is not her husband. He had been gone for weeks now, off to visit cousin Sammrie, who was a cooper in a village in north-west Murandy. He had not returned.

She saw a group enter the square to the east, seemingly well prepared. She hesitated, then approached Firimei Sedai, asking for assistance. She explained her predicament and asked if the party could go to the village and find an answer to the question why her husband had not returned.

The group set out and rode west, crossing the pine clad hills of Murandy. Turning north onto a broken road, they reached the village. The sun was out and all seemed normal. The mayor walked the street, village women went about their daily business. They spoke with Sammrie, who said Tomlin was free to go, in a way. Then night fell in Hinderstap and the screaming began...

Introducing Hinderstap, a village and sequence of events taken directly from the books! The village contains a minismob chain (with a twist!), which can load a variety of NO-RENT uniques*.

*Several of the lesser uniques have been made NO-RENT, and some may be made NO-RENT in the future. With lesser uniques we mean the types that used to not be played (as much) and frequently were inactive on characters. Making them no-rent saves on items to check on for activity. This is an experiment, and it may be reverted, or changed etc.

However, Hinderstap is here to stay, probably the highest quality zone overhaul to date, taking over 36 hours of ingame work and that week of downtime writing descsriptions. Suffice to say, not every zone is going to get this level of attention when being overhauled. ;)

Enjoy Hinderstap! And do take a look around in the other part of the zone, it hints at things to come regarding the zone west of there...
