Instead we'll dedicate weekly smaller posts for each Smugglers' representative and their respective journal. As we try to unveil their real motives and hidden origins.

Where did they come from? What do they want? Who is their client?

"Cipher of Stealth" trinket, featuring the unmistakably logo of the Smugglers' League.

You earn this trinket by completing all 19 deeds of this season Act 1, which includes talking with all the Smugglers NPCs.

As for the Smugglers' representatives' dialogues, since they are surprisingly fully voiced, we decided to incentivize pirates to go check on each NPC by themselves (and you have no reason to, since they are seasonal deeds as well!)

We are currently unaware if these shiplogs devise any secret meaning, especially as it points out certain locations...

Time will tell if more Chronicles will show up in future updates or relate to the story at large.

In-game screenshot of 4 small trinket ship models resting aboard a Captain's quarters.

The yellow and orange model of The Gilded Fox, sporting the namesake animal on its sails.

The dark tidal model of The Shadow Current.

The striking blue splendor model of The Sapphire Steel with a blue saber on its sails.

And the white familiar canine model of The Wolf in Winter, also with its namesake on the sails.

All these trinkets can be earnable by finding and reading the Chronicles of each ship. Since they are loot items, they can't be found in permanent specific locations.

The Smugglers' League have made an explosive arrival, and with them a new unique style of storytelling.

Join us as we dwell on the 8 Chronicles scattered throughout caches and shipwrecks. Journals that double down as loot items (Perfect to read on the go!)

Larinna has new dialogue if you ask "What sort of danger?", something we missed in the first round due to the use of the same prompt.

Shout out to AshinyRayquaza for pointing it out in his video.
