There was that whole thing months ago...a sort of newsletter from Daventry. Four Winds I believe it was called. It seems to have dissapeared. Perhaps some of you may recall such a thing, or perhaps my memory is already failing at the age of 18. Who can clarify this disturbing issue!?!
:idea:

Heh no your memory is not playing tricks on you, the four winds was around a while ago but unfortunately was put on hold as the game developement started to pick up speed.

Glad to see some people still remember it though  ;D

Welcome Tropicanafan! ;D I'm actually a fan of Tropicana too! XD  

As Alex mentioned, the Four Winds newsletter is no longer in production, due to focus being fully directed towards the game.  However, I suggest subscribing to the Newsletter if you haven't already.  You will be among the first to be notified when we perform site updates and important announcements!  :)

I miss the Four Winds! But I guess I'd rather have a game that I'll treasure forever than a newsletter that'll keep me entertained for an hour at most...SO GET ON WITH THE GAME! :P

Is it worth considering letting another person join the team as an official Four Winds newsletter person?  Sorry, I'm new here, I hope that doesn't sound pretentious.  Just sounds like it was an interesting feature.  But as said before, if it's gone in favor of game development, more power to you!

Thanks for the offer but as I said before, the Four Winds is no longer in production, nor are we looking for people to produce it.  You can find a list of all the currently available positions here. :)

Yeah, what's up with this Encyclopedia thing in the library? Is it something you guys were going to do and never got around to doing, or is it something to look forward to? :P

Now that the King's Quest omnipedia is up, are you guys going to put a link to it in the library?

Anyone have copies if the story telling of Abdul's trial and similar newspaper like source material that was up on the site at one time?

I think it was called the four winds?

I would like to put it up into King's Quest Omnipedia if at all possible.
Well, ya, King's Quest is on Earth. Daventry is very old city from a long time ago. It's in ruins now and people aren't quite sure exactly where it used to be. There are some archaeologists searching through the ruins, they think they know its Daventry. But its somewhere on Earth."-Roberta Williams http://kingsquest.wikia.com/wiki/File:Daventryisearth.ogg

Of course I remember the Four Winds and of course we have that, we took it down cuz it was a process we didn't aim to continue due to our goal with the art departmen was mainly to focus on production itself. Long story short, I'll keep that in mind :)

KQ Omnipedia?

Where can I find such a wondrous tome! ? !  :)
When cities burn and armies turn,
and flee in disarray,
Cowards will cry 'tis best to fly
and fight another day.
But warriors know it in their marrow when they die and fall,
It is better to have fought and lost than not have fought at all.

Right here! :D

(Or you could also go through the library, they link to it there too.)
