This ones a bit late as I went on vacation for the first time in years. Hope you enjoy the new stuff!

This is the monthly update build for August. It focuses on adding storyline to The Clash in the form of a number of routes for Avocado. As always, writing is the lions share of work left in the game. It takes time but I will keep releasing monthly updates until it is done.

You can reach The Clash by

treating The Mossbacks terribly.

If you're having trouble finding this section of the game reach out on the official Discord and talk to people in the #Heartbound channel. You can reach this channel by selecting the Heartbound role under #channels-and-roles. There are a ton of routes so it can be unwieldly to find specific areas at times.
