Shorah and salutations, dwellers of the cavern!

I find on the heels of the newest update to MOULa, I have the signifigant duty of providing an important announcement on behalf of the Guild of Messengers. In recent weeks, explorers may have read about many changes that were in store for the guild. The first of which, was seeking of two new Guild Masters to run GoMe's day to day operations. The appointment of those new leaders has arrived, and it is time for us to share with community who they are.

Before I do, I would like to take a moment to thank our previous leaders Leonardo and Luna for all of their hard work over the years. Leo's endeavors brought to the community the All Guilds Meeting, where he still serves as its moderator, helping to build bridges within the community's various groups. Luna's efforts complimented these labors, by reviving GoMe's newsletter, attempting to add for the community an extra element for its members to look forward to. I feel I can say with certainty, the impression of this change noticeable, much like the previous era when Marten stepped down as Guild Master. Although all three will continue be with us as Messengers, gracing us with their thoughts and advice, their hands are not "at the helm" on a daily basis. Taking up these duties will be two new "set of hands", as the Guild of Messengers charts a new course into the waters of the future: Read more

Every once in a while the Guild of Messengers generates News instead of just reporting about them. This time it may be a shocking one for some of you.
Luna(nne) and I have decided to resign from our positions of Guild Masters for the GoMe.
Unlike what happened in the past for other Guild Masters in other Guilds, our action is not the result of arguments or fights, we are not leaving out of anger or delusion. We are leaving in a peaceful way, we have had a good time as GMs of the Guild and we have happy memories about it. But time has come for us to step back and retire in the shadows of the virtual printing office.
Recently we have felt that we were no longer able to give the right energy to our Guild and we were becoming a weight that was slowing down all the activities and was compromising the possibilities for the future of the GoMe. So, unlike some other GMs, we are choosing to give the opportunity to someone else to use their personal approach to shape the GoMe and give it new energy, before our inactivity starts to be too heavy and bring the rest of the Guild to a dormant state.

Heather Larkin, a talented freelance artist, has started the very interesting project of drawing the story of The Book of Atrus.

So far she has drawn three Chapters, telling the story of Atrus's childhood with Anna. The drawings are really well done, they are able to communicate the atmosphere and the feelings of the characters, which have very detailed expressions.

She is also putting together a proposal to send to Cyan Worlds to see if they are interested in publishing her work as an official commercial product by Cyan.
