Greetings,

In An Nox, skills can be gained by learning from a master of the task or by hard work, dedication and repetitiveness.

Fortunately for the people of An Nox, when the moons meet, their learning ability doubles, causing a quicker increase in the knowledge being applied.

The Poison has Returned

Greetings,

I had thought with the wiping of the worlds that the poison that birthed An Nox would not return. However, from the evil depths of the land the poison has begun to appear.
