It's a bit difficult to put this into words, but I'll try anyway.

I've been playing ESO since its first baby steps back in 2014, during beta, with only a few breaks along the way. After reading the news about ZOS today, I was left with a heavy heart.

TES, and especially ESO, has always been my safe haven. A place I could return to after a long, stressful dose of real life. No matter how many years pass, no matter how many hours I've spent there, Tamriel always finds a way to bring me back.

The recent news saddens me deeply. So many talented people helped shape ESO into the world many of us love and return to again and again. Knowing that they are affected by this is truly heartbreaking, and I really hope they know how much their work has meant, and still means, to so many of us.

For those whose journey is changing now, I truly hope the days ahead are gentle to you, and that kindness and support find you wherever you go. Thank you for all the care and heart you put into this vast and beautiful world. 💜
