I had the kids the whole weekend, so I didn't...

I had the kids the whole weekend, so I didn't work on the module a ton. Still, I managed some solid progress. I started writing the beginning of the fourth module, which is slowly solidifying in my mind. I'm not sure if it'll make it through unchanged, but so far I'm pretty happy with the opening.

Focusing on the task at hand, I hunkered down and went through the Woodhaven quest. Things were pretty badly broken, but I'm fixing them as quickly as I can. In one case, I deleted a key house and forgot to add it back. In another case, you couldn't actually learn new skills for use in the arena, which basically made it impossible to win. I've also reduced the number of fights you have to engage in. Mostly I want it to be a fun little area and not a series of tedious battles.

It still needs things like journal entries and more polish, but it feels good to start taking care of the last of the main quests.

I also had another side quest come to me. I've been wanting to give your companions and the romance with each of them a bit more attention. So far Heather gets lots of action, while poor Daniel doesn't currently do much more than admire the player. This new potential quest fixes that, though you can certainly engage in it out of friendship instead of l'amour.
