Editing Update of the Avatar/Update 227 (section)

===<span id="1">The Making of Oracle Colossus</span>===
'''SPOILERS:''' Now that all three paths (Truth, Love, and Courage) are playable we have begun work on the Finale part of the plot, aka The Path of the Oracle. One of the crucial scenes of that path is the Oracle Colossus. This is of course the famous depiction of the Oracle from the concept painting by Stephen Daniele inspired by passages from The Sword of Midras prequel novel by Tracy Hickman. This scene was built as a placeholder and is now being polished into a final state.

We hope to have the Oracle Colossus ready for Release 42 or 43.

Here are some early shots of progress on the [[Oracle Colossus]] area.

I, explorer Earl Greyhot, arrive at the site of the Oracle Colossus, where a previous expedition from the University of Britannia disappeared under dubious circumstances.<br>[[Image:Oracle-Colossus-1.jpg|800px]]

I’ve discovered a mysterious magical dais, perhaps related to the magic elements.<br>[[Image:Oracle-Colossus-2.jpg|800px]]

The ruins have proven most inhospitable, but I have prevailed over the traps and puzzles so far.<br>[[Image:Oracle-Colossus-3.jpg|800px]]

..And there she is.. <br>[[Image:Oracle-Colossus-4.jpg|800px]]<br>[[Image:Oracle-Colossus-5.jpg|800px]]
