The response to The Elven Slave and the Great Witch’s Curser Patched has been overwhelming, but not without nuance.
So why patch now? In the AMA, Frost explained: "I woke up one night realizing that players were exploiting the glitches to ‘beat’ the Witch without ever facing her. They were bypassing the moral choice. That’s not a story about slavery; that’s a story about cheating. The curse had to work properly for the metaphor to land."
Morvaine discovers Kaelen and laughs. She reveals she wanted the Curser patched — because a repaired Curser can be aimed. She seizes the blade and begins a ritual to transfer her immortality into Kaelen’s body, turning him into her new vessel.
