In the depths of Hell.

I can't quite understand the value of this artifact; they gave me the "Spirit of Frida," and I've been carrying it around for three months now (see the attached picture). There's nowhere to use it, and it doesn't provide any noticeable benefit when stored.

As for the game, I've been playing for two months, reached level 35, destroyed three castles, and amassed a huge army (2,000 archers, 1,200 griffins, 500 lizardmen, 109 Nightblades, 19 Shadowlords, and 56 Red Dragons). I haven't suffered any significant losses yet, except for 150 archers in a battle with the Factions early on (Hydras and Minotaurs don't count; I got rid of them immediately to avoid them interfering, and I don't pick them up anymore). It's a shame that there's nowhere to upgrade the Nightblades into the first version of Shadowlords; they're much more useful. I used them to defeat the Factions early in the game. Also, I would definitely upgrade the griffins into Furies; they have less health, but higher initiative, which is often a greater advantage.

P.S. If the "Return of the Hero" map is in the maps folder, instead of talking to the altar, it shows a cutscene of the battle with the Druid at the beginning of the "Return of the Hero" mission. There might be other glitches, but I deleted this map and others immediately afterward. Maybe the "Spirit of Frida" was a reward from another map?

P.S.S. Sorry if I'm repeating myself; I didn't read the entire forum thread.
