You know if anyone has been hard at work during The Shadow Odyssey beta, it has been Niami Denmum! Our favorite little halfling has an excellent crafting preview that goes into great detail and, as always, includes a fun story along with it.

Once Mum finished a grand adventure with Jess (who definitely did suit Mum's personality to a T), to help a young Augren lad learn more about harvesting, Niami let herself be talked into helping the Far Seas folks already out in the field on the Moors of Ykesha. In theory, enough time had passed for the gnomes to work all the kinks out of their flying ship, so she wasn't nervous ... much. After all, it wasn't a brand-new invention, but rather rebuilding something they'd made in the distant past, which made it safer right from the start, or so they said.
