Why This Update Matters
This preserves urgency while allowing players to inspect Vale Sangora, read lore, and plan a route without a real-time countdown.
This article covers one specific player question so it can be refreshed without changing unrelated guides. The linked category hub collects the other updates that affect the same stage of the player journey.
What Is Still Unknown

Context for Players
