World of Warcraft secret hunters now have a place to call home, as an over a decade-old mystery dating back to the Cataclysm expansion now has a new purpose.

As discovered by the WoW Secret Finding & Collections Discord community (via Icy Veins), a strange pearl on the very edge of the Vash'jir map that has perplexed players since 2010 now serves a peculiar new function. Bumping into the pearl teleports players to a mysterious location that looks to be an alternate version of the Seat of Knowledge from Pandaria, one where a secret group called the Cabal of the Mind-Seekers meets.

Scaling new heights is always a welcome thing for any developer, and The Game Bakers is celebrating the latest feather in its cap as Cairn sold 200,000 copies over the course of its debut weekend. A tweet from the studio behind a very compelling – and unique – survival experience showcases its own ascent to success in what many other indie studios might be dreaming of.

Out now on PS5 and PC, we certainly had a lot of good things to say about the gruelling, but ultimately rewarding experience it presents in our review. If the responses to the studio’s tweet are any indication, players share our sentiments about Aava’s climb and claim to fame.

Is this the revival of Kami’s golden age of tourism?
