The Dark Time period expanded...

The last future updates since Chaos Part II had gained ample applause

I assume for all the players who had been the Dark henesys before knew that there was a burning tree of life at the "Previous Sixpath Crossway". And rumored that a new area is coming soon
Yes it had ! It had arrived in KMS(T)
But somehow differently , it goes the backwards, as in, it shows the past of Leafre instead of the Future as it was rumored.
and surprisingly with Slient Crusade or Cross Hunter contents
Also with Maple Unite!
New BOSS ! Cygnus had been kicked down from her "Newest boss ever" throne.
But she's still is the sexiest and strongest.



Slight changes for Theme Dungeons
Don't you hate the looooong and annoying quests for Chryse the theme dungeons or some of the theme dungeons with lots of items to be collected?
They had all been revamped, with the maps shortened, minimized, monsters readjusted. You can now finally solo some of the bosses inside without getting your precious items looted by the others.
However,if you went in with a party, when a member looted the Quest Item, you'll get a share as well.

Slient Crusade / Cross Hunter
Who are they? This content is originated from Japan MapleStory named 十字旅者 if I was not mistaken.
The content was recently brought to Global MapleStory during The Age of Triumph (Part V of Chaos)
It was mainly about the revamped Monster Book with new attractive abilities and quests with interesting storylines and mouth-watering rewards.
However, It seems like they had been doing the same thing for Golden Temple and Neo City.
They recycled the Exclusive contents to make full use of them to further expand their storylines.

The quests were about clearing some areas with special boss monsters. (Oh, cheer up, it works like a Mini Dungeon, so you don't have to worry that something like  'ZOMG WHO THE HELL CLEARED ALL THE BOSSES AND MADE ME UNABLE TO COMPLETE MY QUEST !" would happen )
One of my favorite new boss was,
Mama Pixie
I had been thinking of Mama Pixie since the first time I went Orbis Party Quest in the late 2008.
Papa Pixie was sooooo strong that time until I was thinking of "Hey, Let's summon Mama Pixie and teach Papa Pixie some lessons, pull his ears and knock him out instantly". It had become true afterall.
This had been quite a known issue since it was released in both Japan MapleStory and Global MapleStory.
It's basically about slaying monsters , trading special Silent crusade items.
Note : You can only join the Silent Crusade at Lv75.

The Past of Leafre and the Crack of Time
I guess nobody would care much of the Silent Crusade, every player was excited about the Leafre patch.
Since I don't have a KMS(T) account, I could not show much but some of the precious pictures from our greatest blogger - SPADOW (I thought that he was back, but he wasn't ><)
however, THANK YOU SPADOW ,I LOVE YOU (I am straight) MY IDOL EVER ! <3 
How comes a Silent Crusade member is here? Perhaps they linked the contents together and changed it a little.

Well you guys had heard right? Aran was sealed after the war..






























the Mercedes before she was awake right after the war and have her final conversation with Afrien, (OMG SO THAT MEANS THERE'S ACTUALLY PEOPLE WHO LOOKED AT THEM SINCE THE WAR?!)

Perhaps this quest is about getting Afrien 's Egg back and sealed it somewhere so that Evan in the future would find it !

Seriously I love how Nexon linked everything up, it's like a dramatic novel, but sadly, is it going to be the end of MapleStory?

You can fly to the Timeless Temple in the present, What about the past? It's the same ! Also I suddenly can confirm that the evolution of Dragons in Maple World :P, from the black dragon becomes the Bahamut-ish red dragon..
The depth of the Timeless Temple was known as the Forgotten Twilight in the present. However it looks much more scarier last time and we can conclude that it was the time period before the ritual of Ariel (Or timeless goddess?).

Yes yes,it's him, the one who appeared in Demon Slayer 's tutorial. The evil Snakeman
 It was true afterall, I had seen the storyline somewhere from a Chinese MapleWiki before.
During the past, there were not many continents, there's only 1 giant land. During the war in ElinForest or the whole land, the heroes were sealed after Black Magician was too. Ariel got sacrificed for a ritual and summoned Pink bean (From the other dimension) instead.
For the True storyline, there had been a lot of discussions and forked opinions.
Some stated that, Pink bean was not intended to be summoned, it's the failure of the ritual.
Some even stated that, Black Magician had a clone in the Temple to do the ritual for him as he leaded the army to attack the land.
It's like the history or questions today, "Which comes first? The egg or the chicken?"

The Timeless Temple at the past was much gloomier and much eerie than the present one with 3 paths.

 OH! Don't show that disappointing look or that mocking smile! Somebody said he could even finish this much of HP even if he was sleeping during the fight somewhere in Southperry.
