What is in the Cupboard?: ANO Cabinet Review
Spirits
Back to Talkair , let us dive straight into Spirits. A total of 6 months has passed since the last edition, and as usual, Spirits did not disappoint. As per tradition, a multitude of Wynnter events were carried out, including:
- Secret Santa, a yearly tradition of ANO, organized by the Llamas .
- Following that was yet another fan favourite, an ANO edition trivia held by Hibikies and lamplesspost .
- A data collection event was announced by Calluum in collaboration with Wynn Analytics, a group dedicated to collecting Wynncraft related data on raids, builds, and archetypes.
- To wrap it all up, a huge Wynnter seasonal event involving three minigames: Present hunt, Survival Games, and Team Build Battle. Hosted by the Llamas , it ended the Wynnter season with a high note.
Following the end of Wynnter, and stepping into 2026, the Spirit Cabinet has hosted the following events so far:
- Cross-guild collaboration Wynncraft scavenger hunt event with Cirrus [Crrs].
- Another cross-guild collaboration, this time with the Empire of Sindria [ESI], for their yearly anniversary event.
- With the release of Wynncraft 2.2: The Fruma Expansion, a special Fruma Scavenger Hunt was hosted by Aethei and Asoart .
- An ANO location hunt with special attention to new Fruma locations was hosted in May, by the Llamas , where participants took screenshots of themselves at the locations for a prize.
A huge round of applause to all our event makers, and we can not wait to see what is in for these coming months - especially with summer around the corner! As usual, spirits is always looking for new crew members, so feel free to apply, which can be done by navigating your way to the #roles channel and reacting to the confetti.
Brilliance
Welcome back into the cabinets of brilliance where I, C0rupted will be taking you through our recent happenings. It has been a quieter period for Brilliance this time around, though that does not mean nothing has been happening. On the maintenance side, a handful of tracking issues have been ironed out. We fixed some players that were not being tracked correctly, and a few guilds were missing raid records that have since been back-filled, so do not be alarmed if you saw some unusual raid counts appear in a single timeframe. The /warcount range option errors are gone, guild icons load a touch faster, and bugs related to username changes have been resolved. For updates, with the Fruma expansion now out, the team has updated the map and aspect/lootpool commands to reflect the new content. Backend changes have also been made to support the new raids, items, and lootrun camps that came with the expansion - everything should be tracked and accounted for. As always, we are always on the look out for new members, so if you are interested in joining Brilliance, head to ⁠role-react and grab the wrench emoji!
Military Updates ⚔️
Welcome to the military updates. It is Talkair again, taking you through the rough war-torn seas of ANO. A huge wave of applause goes to Nergi on achieving the rank of Strategist, successfully passing the Strategist test. Congratulations on your well deserved promotion! Now, we move on to our guild seasons. In over 6 months since the last Titan Times, there has only been 2 seasons, with Season 30 ongoing as of writing. In Season 28 , which went on from November 2025 to December 2025 , first place was taken by minty139 with 735 wars, claiming the title Champion of the Ocean. Following minty139 , was gunplafan123 in second place with 558 wars, and finally Calluum claiming third with 381 wars. Huge round of applause for all the warriors in defending our home, the Ocean. In Season 29 , which went on from January 2026 to March 2026 , a special incentive of warring was given by Zepart , who promised to double all Ocean Trials reward payouts. In first place, winning the title of Champion of the Ocean, was gunplafan123 with 1807 wars, more than triple Season 28 ’s first place. In second was Kindyybee with 482 wars, and finally GebutterteWurst , coming in third with 473 wars. Thank you soldiers for your dedicated service! Our journey within these rough seas has ended, and remember to tune in for Edition 22 for the Season 30 recap. See you around soldiers.
Main Stage: A Dive into Fruma
Written by DragonZftw & l1npengtul
After years of teasers, Wynncraft 2.2: The Fruma Expansion finally released on the 4th of April, 2026. Following a 13 part questline following a formal royal summon from Her Majesty, the clandestine Monarch of the Fruma province, the Royal Gates are finally opened, and the player is finally let back inside, to where it all began.
Warning: The following sections will spoil the entirety of the Fruma questline. The quests, cutscenes, and writing are quite enjoyable in this update so we highly recommend going in blind.
The entire questlines requires that the player have already completed the main questline quests in other regions, specifically:
- Recover the Past (Lv. 25)
- The Realm of Light (Lv. 79 - final part of the The Realm of Light questline)
- A Journey Further (Lv. 101 - final part of the Silent Expanse questline)
Chapter I: Homecoming
- Queen’s Recruit (Lv. 103): The Royal Selection officially begins! Her Majesty invites the Player, Tasim, and many other characters you have met along your journey to Fruma. There can only be one winner, but the tournament quickly goes sideways.
- A Journey Home (Lv. 104): The player left agasp in front of the sealed Royal Gate… wondering if that was that. By going back to where the player came and with the help of the Caravan driver, the player discovers that curiosity kills the cat.
Chapter II: Leaves in the Wind
- A New Beginning (Lv. 105): After the events of the previous quest, Espren is off-limits to those without identification papers; including the player. While attempting to obtain and destroy a military report, the player finds themselves meeting the Leaves in the Wind.
- The Cursed One (Lv. 106): We meet Her Majesty again in the Auburn Festival, and as preparations are underway for the festival, Syndra, the leader of The Leaves in the Wind, requests that you teach the others about Wynn and its magic. During the festival, Syndra can be spotted talking to an… auspicious figure.
- Revelations in Fall (Lv. 108): The Crown begins to close in on The Leaves in the Wind, and as it is no longer safe the player and the group decide to move into the Roughworks, acquiring passports from an unexpected individual.
Chapter III: The Steel Feather
- Solidary of Steel (Lv. 109): After staying low in the Roughworks, The Leaves in the Wind regroup in Timasca, and we are introduced to a new group headed by a familiar face, the Steel Feather, who are based in an abandoned train station.
- The Price of Ingenuity (Lv. 110): Something is off about one of the brothers, Yusanu. He disappears into his workshop for hours on end, seemingly hard at work; however no sound can be heard from outside the workshop. Rex and the player decide to investigate and end up making a perhaps impulsive and rash decision.
- Echoes of Change (Lv. 112 - The Missing Piece (Lv. 111) completion recommended ): The festival for the Roughworks approaches near, and Her Majesty is expected to make an appearance. Tired of always being on the run away from the Crown, the resistance decides to take a stand, despite forewarning by a familiar face. The Resistance’s success, however, is all but certain.
Chapter IV: Amongst the Canopy
- Shrouded in Mist (Lv. 113): The fight at the festival ended in tragedy, and due to a request by Syndra to keep them safe, the player takes Sui and Yusanu to the Mistwoods, with help from an unlikely defector. Finding refuge in a cave, the group suddenly finds themselves at spear-point, but ends up joining another resistance cell, the Canopy.
- True Colours (Lv. 115): Changlings, the dangerous shape-shifting spies that the Crown uses to gain intelligence on activities happening within the Mistwoods. The Canopy catches one of these spies in a cell, and using special interrogation methods find the whereabouts of the other members of the Leaves in the Wind and Steel Feather. Yunasu, Sui, and the player are directed to travel to the Owl headquarters, but a certain Changling decides a change of plans. Will Sui and the player make it out of the Sovereign's grasp?
Chapter V: The Blossom of Blades
- Overture to Despair (Lv. 116): Sui and the player move from the Mistwoods to Hyloch in order to find the surviving Leaves in the Wind members, who are currently imprisoned at the Highland Sovereign's dungeon. Along the way, Sui and the player encounter a very particular resistance group, The Blossom of Blades, and the player’s silence leads to the end of a long friendship.
- Ensemble of Hope (Lv. 118 - Off the Rails (Lv. 109) and The Strong Survive (Lv. 117) completion recommended): Rex, Sui, Zeph, and the player regroup in Hyloch, and with the assistance of the Canopy and the surviving Steel Feathers members, a new plan to take down the Crown is formulated. Sui and the player, along with the help from a disgruntled Bleeding Rose, an ensemble of the Leaves in the Wind, Steel Feathers, Canopy, and Blossom of the Blades form an assault on the looming capital, Aelumia Citadel.
- Apotheosis (Lv. 119): The final part of the Fruma questline, the player is notified that Rex, Sui, Yunasu, and Captain Cileon have encountered trouble at Hyloch, leading to a fight with the Highland Sovereign, Majin. Her Majesty, tired of the rebels, decides to destroy the Royal Dam, which would flood the Auburn Forest. Defeating both Her Majesty and the final Sovereign, Rex is killed but ultimately revived, and the player is tasked with closing the rifts that now are visible above Fruma by entering The Wartorn Palace. - After the end of Apotheosis, Tasim can be spotted behind the Leaves in the Wind hideout, near a grave. A letter from Aledar can be read, thrown away in a nearby pot.
- Make sure to return to Fort Torann to open the Royal Gate in order to be able to access the Province of Fruma and The Wartorn Palace Raid on any class.

Side Quests
- Undersupply (Lv. 107, Auburn Forest): The festival has caused the water allocated to the people of the Auburn Forest to be reduced even further, and the player is tasked with entering the Royal Dam to open the dam so the villagers may drink.
- The Scarred Springs (Lv. 108, Auburn Forest): In a quiet corner of the Auburn Forest, the Pishlas Hot Springs sit dilapidated, its waters dirty. Accompany Maripe in restoring the Pishlas Hot Springs to what it once was, and help in getting the word out to the Auburn folk.
- Off the Rails (Lv. 109, Roughworks): Upon boarding one of the trains in the Fruman Underground by finding a misplaced ticket, a murder mystery unfolds as the General of the Provincial Guard is found murdered in her cabin. The player is tasked with collecting evidence to make an accusation to find the murderer. - Correct or otherwise, you will receive all the rewards upon completing the quest.
- This quest unlocks the Fruman Underground, a very powerful method of fast travel between the Fruma regions.
- An animation plays every time you ride the Fruman Underground, and the animation that the player model does every time is different.

- Through the Pipes (Lv. 110, Roughworks): Help Fichu find their package, which was stolen by a racoon by going through the Roughworks sewer system. - The final reward differs based on the player’s performance on the last section of the quest.

- The Missing Piece (Lv. 111, Roughworks): An overworked Postmaster asks the player to bring a stack of letters to an elderly resident, Elise, who lives nearby. Reading the letters, Elise decides to hold a small picnic on a nearby hill, and remembers. - This quest is very buggy. Do not leave the quest during the factory section - otherwise you risk softlocking the quest. There is currently no way to unsoftlock the quest.

The academy is more corrupt than it seems however... - Arnol remakes his appearance in the final 2 quests of the main storyline, Ensemble of Hope and Apotheosis . If you complete this quest, he can be seen at the Canopy Hideout (Ensemble of Hope) and then at Aelumia Citadel (Apotheosis) as a resistance member.

Member Shoutout
Shoutout to villainessbian and iHadNever for their service to the guild and participation in guild raids, and another shoutout to Nergi for becoming the new #1 Guild XP contributor, earning himself the @xp grinda role.

"Scientifically, how many items that people can store in their working memory (short-term memory) of most people is around 7 items, give or take 2, referred to as Miller's Law. (Note: This is only a general (but useful!) heuristic - many factors may affect one’s working memory capacity.) (Source: https://doi.org/10.1037/h0043158)" - l1npengtul

Closing Remarks
Hello, I am l1npengtul, the new Editor-in-Chief for the Titan Times. From the next release onwards, Volume 22, I plan to revitalize and get Titan Times back-on-track as a regular, quarterly publication. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to not only the Titan Times readership but to the existing team of Talkair, DragonZftw, and C0rupted for giving me this opportunity and for having been and continuing to be excellent writers for Titan Times, as well as Councilor Chloe for giving me the final push I needed to become a regular contributor. The next release will come out late June, as an in-between synchronization release so Titan Times can publish at the start of every season in March, June, September, and December. Thank you all for your support so far, and this subject humbly requests your continued readership and support going forward.
-l1npengtul
With that, this journey has once again come to an end. On behalf of all our crew, thank you to all readers who took their time going on this expedition into the sea of ANO news with us, and we hope you enjoyed our first publication in 5 months. Until next time Titans!
