Dryad Nairi captures Swamp Willow

Hi all,

October was very busy for us - we have been adding, improving, fixing, etc. I am happy that we can still deliver so much in so short time and enhance Age of Fear series further!

Please note that we will be increasing prices in early 2019. The economy of Steam became very hard and we need revenue to keep us afloat.
