ere, in "files", you'll find patches, editors, and other miscellany to help you prepare and train for the hard adventures ahead. By their nature, they may require an adventurer's concentration be turned –robbing the blissful suspension of disbelief like bandits in the night– whereas "tools" differ in that they may be used while remaining immersed in a world of fantasy and lore. Most files are in the ZIP format. You'll need an unzip utility to open these files.
