Niska is a small, remote town with no strong ties to any greater legal authority. As such, the town is ripe for certain individuals to lend a guiding hand. Any other community would bristle at outsiders rolling in and making changes, but the promise of gold and the sight of heavily armed adventurers is, not surprisingly, more than enough for most people to look the other way. Niska citizens may not look kindly on you, but it has become apparent, to both them and you, that they cannot stop you, even if they were willing to try.

Adventurers may spend gold and astral shards purchasing and upgrading various improvements around the town. Some improvements are not immediately accessible and will require players to either reach a higher level or complete quests and discover things in the world first.
