Hello Pachans, in this 4th edition you'll learn more about your home, resources, trees, the importance of "ideas," and the mysterious caves that dot the landscape of Pacha. Join us on Discord! [url=https://rootsofpacha.com/discord]

Your house

When you reach The Land Between Two Rivers, you and your friends will first live with your adoptive parents, the elders Igrork and Maeri. But youre a grown up now, and probably want to get your own place. With a few materials and the help of Croll, the builder, youll build your home wherever you want.
You wont need a lot of space in the beginning but will probably want to expand it later on!

Ideas

We started talking a little bit about ideas last month. Theyre a core part of the evolution of the Clan. Our ability to imagine things, to try our ideas and push ourselves to new things that might seem impossible, is what sets us apart from the other Pacha creatures.
All Clan members have ideas that theyll share with you at some point in time, when improving their friendship and trust, discovering new regions, or finding elements. An idea is not more than an image in someone's mind, theyll tell you a little bit about it and show you a rough sketch of what theyre thinking. Itll be your choice to use the Clans Knowledge to develop ideas in any order you want.

Trees

They dont move but are always there, growing and reaching to the sky. Trees are usually taken for granted when they give us so much: shadow to rest, wood to make tools and build, bark to heal our wounds, fruits for food and medicine. Weve added 3 trees that grow natively in The Land Between 2 Rivers:

Craftables

We worked on the placing system for the craftables in your farm. There are now wood fences and gates that can open/close automatically when youre nearby. We also added a new small water well so you dont have to go to the river everytime you need water for your crops.
Most craftables will have to be unlocked through an idea too, so youll have to decide which ideas you want to develop first!

Contribution

Your contribution will mainly be the crops that you grow, the food that you make from them, and anything you can find throughout the world.
This large vessel holds the daily contribution. It seems bottomless, but someone from the Clan distributes its content every night.

Gathering

Throughout the world youll find different items that will help the Clan survive and progress.
Maybe a mushroom for rituals, some datura flowers with strong healing powers, poop for the hunters to camouflage their scent, or oregano to make your favorite dishes (prehistoric pasta sauce?).

Social

We improved the dialogue UI, with a new layout, answers and style. As you talk with the Clan members, give them gifts and help them in their everyday tasks, youll develop friendship.
And whats a friendship if not a plant that needs to be nurtured and cared for. Thats why we represent it as one. Start from seed and watch it convert into a beautiful flower.

Shed

Following up with previous months animal love, weve started trying out the first shed you can invent, build and place in your farms.

Caves

You are walking next to a rock cliff, and suddenly see this entrance partly hidden with vegetation. An entrance to the inner depths of the world, where Pachas manifestations take real shape. Caves are places where you can find resources and encounter magical beings. To venture deeper therell be challenges, but rewards will be worth them. In following devlogs well be revealing more about them. Good for you if you made it this far, its been a pretty intense month with lots of stuff taking shape. See you next time!
