This concludes our event 'The Mighty Will Not Fall'. In light of these things, we learned a lot from this event and hope to increase the number of community events for this incredible community. When the next event rolls around, we'll make improvements based on your feedback.

I want to thank all our participants, you all did so well - we’ll see you again soon with some quality of life updates and bug fixes for the base game.

Until next time!
