You asked -- we answered!

1. The Local Ferryman Union #528491 has reviewed complaints that the blind ferryman has been taking longer than the allotted time for lunch breaks. The usual penalty for this is blinding, but since we cannot do that twice, we have merely spanked him silly. From now on, we hope his lunch breaks to be in the 5-7 minute range. Ample time for a man to scarf a snack and get back to the relatively cushy job he has been set up with.

2. The travel police reviewed the mine carts farther along the trail and realized that, while an excellent length of time for an amusement park ride, it was a stunning waste of time for those adventurers with pressing business elsewhere. They have twisted a few arms and more direct routes, somewhere in the realm of 3 minutes each, shall be utilized.

In other words -- 5-7 minute lunch breaks at the ferryman, 3 minute rides in each cart = (we hope) less tedium for you on your walk to the EN.

Many thanks to SGM Sleken who jumped on these for me and got them done so quickly!

Holy shit, I did NOT expect them to shorten those cart rides. I really didn't.

I think I'm in shock.

It has been years since I went to EN. How long was the cart ride?

Cool change but they're like six years late.

I bet if you look on the officials right now, there would be people bitching about this change.

I don't think it was necessary; however, it doesn't bother me either.

I would like the journey to be longer. Epic even.
I loved that the world felt huge when I first started playing. I want it changed to loads longer, just for me.
