Shattered Kingdoms

Just wanna say, coming back after nearly a decade, one of my favorite things to stumble upon was the Raven-haired teen missin' his momma's cookin' from the inn. I remember findin' his [REDACTED] and whipping him back to the inn, so it's nice to see he's still a thing. It's super small, and he may not deserve his own thread, but dammit, I remember him, and he's growin' so quick! *Sniff*

Honestly I was a little sad when I came back and found the zakami training zone was changed. Now I vibe with it but I really miss searching for that Zakami tusk. Old area was #1 for expedient leveling due to all of the small quests in the area. Could knock out 10 side-quests in a matter of minutes if you knew what you were doing.

Welcome back! I loved him, too! I just couldn't get rid of him!

The Finishing School does have a number of quests available, but the old newbie areas were all updated to facilitate the Academy. I know there's some disagreement with that decision, but I did what I could to keep the pace reasonable and also incorporate the "new" ideals of Zhenshi that came with the Empress right before the remodel.

If there's room for improvement in that specific area, just let me know. I'm around and willing to make adjustments, but *personally* I've found it to be a pretty quick little spot.
