When I tried to enter Ethernia for the first time, I was instead sent to the Astryl's Meadow page. I tried this multiple times and could not access it. The only way I was able to access Ethernia was by manually typing it into the url "?town=ethernia" although I ended up with what seems to be a more buggy version of the town. No text visible indicating where anything was though I am still able to click around.
I'm not sure if everything is even 100% working because there are no quests and the market is empty. Would definitely appreciate help?

edit: nvm im just a doof

with region 3 areas (Ethernia, SBO, Astry'ls Tranquility) and fest zones you need to hit the Exit Zone button to actually leave the area and go to a different region 3/fest zone area, unlike regions 1 and 2 where you can just swap area just by clicking a different one so long as you aren't in a fight (with Lost Grove you can hit 'exit zone', but generally want to use the Portals to exit)
It's because the explore system functions differently

Oh, thanks! Sorry for the false report ;;
