'''Many exciting new things have arrived in the Folklore Forest!'''
+
<blockquote>
  
Treasure Maps, New Rewards, and lots of quality-of-life improvements!
+
'''Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.'''<br>
 +
Study hard to advance from Apprentice to Master at the School of Sorcery!
  
<blockquote>
+
==== Classes have begun at the School of Sorcery! ====
==== There is More to the Story ====
+
The Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it involves instructing the mice of the Folklore Forest in the ways of his malevolent magic!
The story of the Folklore Forest has been edited, updated, and embellished with many exciting new plot points, details, and even a brand new character!
 
  
==== A Foreboding Foreword ====
+
The King needs the bravest and most studious MouseHunters, Viceroy and above, to enroll at the new School of Sorcery and teach the Mythweaver and his minions a thing or two about classroom etiquette.
The serene soil of the Foreword Farm has been disrupted by a new and very lucrative type of plant: '''the Twisted Parable Papyrus Plant'''!
 
Twisted Parable Papyrus Plant
 
  
This new plant requires Crop Coins to plant but will yield even more Parable Papyrus when harvested! Open the "Manage Plots" popup in the Foreword Farm to see all the details of this valuable new plant.
+
==== Enrollment Process! ====
 +
The Tale of the Sorcerer's Apprentice map piece can be purchased from the Bountiful Beanstalk Cartographer for '''1,000,000 Gold''', '''1,000 Golden Goose Eggs''', and requires completion of the Slay the Mythical Giant King adventure for any hunters who have yet to obtain it.
  
However, farmers should be warned that there is something... not quite right about these new plants. There is a warning in the Gnawnian Farmer's Almanac that planting too many of these in your field may attract a new and very dangerous kind of pest to your farm!
+
Alternatively, hunters who earned Thousandth Draft Derby Cheese during the Spring Egg Hunt can earn the map piece by hunting the M1000 at the Table of Contents.
  
==== A Tale to Tell for Treasure Hunters ====
+
==== Lessons in the Science of Refraction ====
The Cartographers throughout the Folklore Forest now sell two new scroll cases that lead to valuable treasure hidden in this storied region!
+
The new Trapsmith at the School of Sorcery has become a master of refractive science and has developed an extraordinary new entry into the line of refractor bases.

+
| style="border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em" |
This inexpensive scroll case will unveil a treasure map that takes you on a short trip through the Foreword Farm and Prologue Pond and will result in a chest that rewards several useful items including Draft Derby Curds. This map offers a unique opportunity to save an Encyclopedia run should you end up writing longer than you anticipated and have run out of Final Draft Derby cheese. You no longer need to give up on that lucky run, just do one of these maps and you'll be able to pick right up where you left off!

The treasure chest that you'll find at the end of that journey will contain a variety of very powerful charms including a brand new one!

=== New Quality-of-Life Improvements ===
 
A variety of exciting new changes and improvements have made their way into the Folklore Forest!
 
 
 
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
 
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''New Look for the Manage Plots Popup''' </div></div>
 
 
 
The Manage Plots popup in the Foreword Farm has been restyled to add more information while taking up less space and the plant selections have been reordered so that they appear in the same order on both Browser and Mobile.
 
 
 
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
 
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Brainstorm Chum Can Now be Scattered Without Cheese Armed''' </div></div>
 
Previously Brainstorm Chum could only be scattered if Grubbeen, Clamembert, or Stormy Clamembert Cheese was already armed. Now you can scatter your Brainstorm Chum with any cheese armed or even no cheese at all! The chum still only functions with the above-mentioned cheeses so you will now see a warning on the Heads-Up Display if you arm an incompatible cheese but you now can activate your Chum first and arm your cheese afterwards. Furthermore, if you do activate your Chum with an incompatible cheese such as Gouda or SUPER|brie+ and you accidentally take a hunt, you will '''NOT''' lose any Chum during that hunt and it will automatically deactivate itself afterwards.
 
 
 
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
 
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Loot Per Catch on the Pond HUD''' </div></div>
 
An indicator has been added to the Heads-Up Display in the Prologue Pond (on both Browser and Mobile) to show which item is currently being looted based on your cheese and chum state and the quantity range that you can earn per catch!
 
 
 
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
 
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Mobile Camp Page Improvements''' </div></div>
 
The Mobile camp page has been made much more informative when hunting in the Foreword Farm and the Prologue Pond. While hunting in the Foreword Farm, the camp page now tells you which plant types are in each plot (via their thumbnail) and how many catches are remaining until your next plant finishes. While hunting in the Prologue Pond, the camp page now tells you whether Brainstorm Chum is currently being scattered (blue is inactive, magenta is scattered) as well as your quantity of Chum and the quantity of the item you're currently looting.
 
 
 
 
 
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
 
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Choose What Happens to your Bait After Publishing''' </div></div>
 
In the Table of Contents, you can now choose what happens to your bait after publishing a book. You can choose between the default behaviour which is to automatically arm your standard bait of choice or you can choose to have your bait disarm completely. This way you can easily prevent valuable charms from being wasted after an Encyclopedia run ends by simply choosing to have your bait disarm automatically. Whenever you start writing a new book, you'll be presented with this option but you can also change it at any time directly from the Table of Contents Heads-Up Display.
 
 
 
=== New Treasure Hunting Kit ===
 
With the discovery of the new treasure maps, the King has created a Folklore Forest Treasure Hunting Kit packed with Condensed Creativity, SUPER|brie+, and Rare Map Dust!
