After careful consideration, the development team has decided to retain the original server name, despite the community's suggestions, to honor its legacy. No wipe is planned in the medium or long term, unless a significant issue affects the server or database (which is unlikely). This server launch is intended to be long-lasting. The server will support multiple languages, including English, French, and German, to make it accessible to a broader community of players. The current content is based on the latest version of Abomination from the Erodas period and will serve as the foundation for the server’s relaunch.
