The above mentioned "easy mode" will be added with the next update 1.3, uncluding an early healing crystal, some loot and a 100hp boost for the entire party. A new party now starts elsewhere with the option of two teleporters: The "Ordinary" one leaves everything as it is now, the other one for the "Faint of Heart" spawns the items and boosts the party.
Additionally, some helpful text wall advice for the Rutted Moor area will be added as many seemed to got lost in there (as intended

). Amongst other minor changes/fixes/secrets, there will be a Rod of Wisp Summoning which works just like the Summon spell, a small new Catacomb area and a note hinting at the new healing system with common herbs.
