Firstly thank you to all of you who have received your books and been messaging me about how much you are enjoying it. It makes me very happy to see and proud of what we've been able to achieve.
I know there are some backers still waiting for their physical books to arrive. As much as I wish I could say I know exactly what's happening and give you a real play by play on when it'll arrive. Unfortunately, I can't.
Once files are handed over to printers and after our shipping partners take over, there is very little influence I have on the delivery. Contracts and the need for representatives in those regions means I'm not even able to directly speak to the officials as I'm not the importer of record.
However, that's not me washing my hands of this, it's just context for why direct information from me on the delivery/printing stages is quite flat. I know a little more than you do at any given stage, I try to give you as much information as I can.
I know how frustrating it is and it's not fair on you so I wanted to do something as a thank you for your boundless patience and understanding.
Sanctum VTT Release
Sanctum is the in-house VTT for all Crossed Paths titles. It was built with a singular goal in mind, let everyone play these titles easily and from anywhere.
Sanctum VTT
Sanctum was never part of this campaign nor was it offered as a reward but without you as backers, Crossed Paths would not be where it is today and so to that end I am very pleased to announce that Sanctum Access is Free for all Covens of Midnight backers!
Open your account at the top of the page and choose Purchases.
Enter the code under Redeem a code and press Redeem. The Covens of Midnight unlocks straight away.
Click Play in the nav bar, My Scribes and yours good to go!
I am very sorry to everyone who has had to be patient during the extended wait, I'm doing what I can but the sad truth is that it doesn't move the needle much at all.
I do hope you can enjoy a new way to experience this game and find Sanctum to be as useful as I would hope.
This month will be our final official update for Covens of Midnight!

YOUR PACKAGES HAVE ARRIVED
UK and US backers: Your packages have been received. Covens of Midnight is on your shelf and the magic has begun.
EU orders: Your packages are in final administrative checks. This is one of the final stages before your books can begin shipping out to your doorsteps. Your year at the Midnight Court will begin soon.

SANCTUM IS HERE
While your deliveries have been making their way through the system, we have been hard at work on our new digital hub - Sanctum!
It is now easier than ever to draw from the Covens of Midnight tarot deck and discover your Scribe's fate, one card at a time.
Not only that, but you can now challenge your rival to a dual right in your browser. Draw your cards, and let Sanctum walk you through who wins each round and why.
New features are always being added, so keep your eyes peeled for more Midnight Court shenanigans coming soon!
WITH GRATITUDE
We want to thank you all for being a part of this magical journey. We know it hasn't been the quickest or smoothest process. We know you waited. We know you had questions. And we are so, so grateful for your patience, your faith, and your belief in what we were creating.
We are incredibly proud of what we have created. And we are grateful for each and every one of you. Your support is priceless.
Please, enjoy your year at the Midnight Court. Share your stories. Experience the magic.
And know that we are always here, should you need us.
We're overjoyed to announce: fulfilment has officially begun. Orders are arriving to customers in the UK right now.
If you're in the UK and backed Covens of Midnight, check your inbox. Dispatch emails are arriving and your term at the Midnight Court awaits.
For international backers: Your books are in transit through our shipping partners, with books already in US ports as we speak. We'll have updates on additional regions very soon.
This is the moment we've all been waiting for. After the long journey; the delays, the challenges, the waiting - your copies of Covens are finally on their way home!
Thank you for your patience. Thank you for your faith. And welcome home to the Midnight Court.
We're thrilled to announce: Covens of Midnight is on track to arrive in port in the US on or around August 16th, UK Shipments have just been imported, we are now awaiting their arrival into the Warehouse.
The import invoices have started coming in across the world. Your books are making their way across the ocean right now. We know this has been a long wait, but the finish line is in sight.
🏠 ADDRESS UPDATES - ACTION NEEDED
If you need to update your shipping address, please submit a form now rather than waiting for fulfillment partners to contact you:
Alternatively, you can wait for fulfillment partners to send address update requests directly to you. But submitting now ensures your update is processed immediately.
This is important: Address locks will happen once fulfillment begins. If you wait and don't update before then, you may not be able to change your address.
IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS:
Check the form link above, or reach out to our Discord. We're here to help.
We have wonderful news to share this month, both long-awaited and brand new!
Shipping Update: Late August
Your patience has been extraordinary, and we're thrilled to finally share concrete news.
Your copies of Covens of Midnight are currently making their way across the seas to our international shipping partners, and everybody is working around the clock to make sure that your books will be delivered safely to your doorsteps! While the journey has tested us all, the finish line is in sight.
Our US shipping partners have confirmed: your books are expected to arrive in port around late August!
From there, they will make their way to you in approximately 2 weeks! We know the wait has felt long and we are sorry to say that we don’t have more information, as we have handed over all shipping and fulfilment to our external partners.
Thank you for your patience and your faith in us. Soon, Covens of Midnight will be in your hands where it belongs.
🔮 A Gift While You Wait: The Forbidden Archive
To celebrate the approaching shipping date, and to give you something to explore in the meantime, we're introducing a brand new expansion, coming soon:
The Forbidden Archive
Venture into the restricted shelves of the Midnight Court's sacred library. Here, spells of unimaginable power lie dormant on dusty shelves. But knowledge, as every Scribe knows, comes with a price.
In The Forbidden Archive, you will:
Master the art of spellcrafting
Explore chambers no student should enter
Seek spells more powerful than you've ever dared attempt
Uncover secrets the Court has kept hidden
But beware: things in the Archive are rarely what they seem. And some knowledge, once gained, cannot be forgotten.
What's Next?
Your books are coming. Your expansion is approaching. And the Midnight Court grows richer with every secret uncovered.
We're in the final stretch of fulfillment preparation, and we have important news!
📍 Final Address Lock: Tomorrow
Tomorrow, we are locking all addresses for shipment. This means: - If you've already updated your address, you're all set - If you haven't updated it yet, this is your last chance!
If you need to update your address, you can do it here!
What Happens Next:
While addresses are being locked, your order will be assigned to a fulfillment center and preparation for shipping will begin. You're on the home stretch!
📺 A Stream Announcement You Won't Want to Miss
We have something exciting to share about Covens of Midnight during our upcoming stream. The magic is building, and we want to show you what's coming.
Hey,
I'm sorry to ask again but there was no answer from you on my previous post.
GamesQuest has had the project blocked at "Final Administrative Checks" for months now. It specifies that it's tied to making sure they have all the items, correct datas about it, and that payment from the publisher has to have been sent.
Can we have an update on why it is blocked at that stage ? Is it a payment issue ?
Can we have a loose estimate on whether we'll get this in 2026 or if it's closer to 2027 ?
The delay isn't the main issue, your lack of communication on what is going on and what you're doing to fix it so Europeans get their packages is.
Thank you for your reply.
I know the shipping has been handled to a third party, but do you have any timeline to give us at all ? The packages have been checked in the administrative stage according to their website for close to two months now.
Can we still expect a shipping for fall, or should we consider this will be a 2027 thing? Do you know what's delaying things at all?
I know you've sent an email about some of us not receiving it, and the Sanctum is really nice, but I haven't pledged on the new project because I still haven't received the first one in physical yet.
Any communication on this would be appreciated.
Firstly thank you to all of you who have received your books and been messaging me about how much you are enjoying it. It makes me very happy to see and proud of what we've been able to achieve.
I know there are some backers still waiting for their physical books to arrive. As much as I wish I could say I know exactly what's happening and give you a real play by play on when it'll arrive. Unfortunately, I can't.

I think there was a place to buy the other items we might have missed for like physical merch like the journals and physical copies of the books for the rules etc? I just am not sure where that was. Or if it was some kind of fever dream. Please let me know if you can!
