==== The King's Giveaway has BEGUN! ====
 +
The gilded gates protecting the King's Royal Treasure Vault have been opened and the King's Giveaway has begun!
 +
 
 +
From now until '''July 2''', the Treasurer, Snooty, High Roller, Mobster, and Leprechaun mice will be encountered more frequently everywhere in the Kingdom!
  
The King's excavation crews are working on passage to a new region!
+
During the giveaway, each time you attract a mouse, you'll have a chance to attract a prize mouse as a '''bonus hunt''' which does not consume any cheese or charms and will appear as an additional hunt in your Hunter's Journal.

<center>''Capture these rare and valuable mice for Prize Keys and a chance to win SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+, King's Credits, and more!''</center>
<div style="font-size: 115%>Last week's news post included several eyewitness reports of a "mouse from another place that had visited the Sky Palace". These reports mentioned the mouse "savouring the opulence of the palace", which turned out to be a Bookborn Mouse from the Crystal Library savouring the opulent flavour of Extra Rich Cloud Cheesecake.</div></div>
 
  
<blockquote>
+
==== King's Prize Keys and The Vault ====
==== Passage to a New Region ====
 
Thanks to the diligent effort of hunters throughout the Kingdom, a means of passage has been discovered into what's now confirmed to be the region of Folklore Forest!
 
  
The passage was discovered after hunters found a clue from a Bookborn Mouse that lead to tracking Silth mice to reveal a subterranean passage. These passages expand from the Fungal Cavern to the Lagoon, and to what's now known to be the Folklore Forest.
+
The greedy prize mice have snatched up '''ALL''' the keys this year! Only prize mice will drop King's Prize Keys but they will always drop at least one! Use these keys to open 10 Mystery Prize Packs from your Hunter's Camp. These packs contain all sorts of goodies such as Gold, Regal Charms, King's Credits and SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+!
  
This passage is far too small for any hunter to navigate, however, the King's excavation crew is working on expanding and securing the passageway so hunters may navigate through to emerge in the Folklore Forest!
+
Once you've opened 10 Mystery Prize Packs, the King will allow you to peek into the vault and select one of three randomly offered, highly valuable prizes! Once a prize has been selected from the vault, the door will slam shut and the prizes will reset. You may visit the vault every time you open 10 prize packs!

==== Prized Items ====
 +
Capturing a Treasurer, Snooty, or High Roller Mouse will reward you with King's Credits which you can spend at the King's Arms or King's Cart for equipment to help you in a wide range of hunting endeavours.
 +
 
 +
Capturing a Mobster Mouse will reward you with SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ in quantities of 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, or even 1,000!
  
==== The Legendary Looking Glass ====
+
Considered some of the most rare items in the Kingdom are the Mystery Pot of Gold and Mystery Satchel of Gold dropped by the extremely rare and elusive '''Leprechaun Mouse'''. Should you have the extraordinary luck of not only encountering but also capturing a Leprechaun Mouse it will most often drop a Mystery Satchel of Gold containing a generous quantity of Gold along with SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ and charms. On more rare occasions, the Leprechaun will drop a Mystery Pot of Gold which contains even more SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ and the chance of a cash prize!
Entering the Folklore Forest requires the Legendary Looking Glass which can be purchased from the Floating Islands Cartographer. Gazing into this magical mirror will allow hunters to cross the protective boundary that lies at the end of the subterranean passage!
 
  
With the help of hunters, the Floating Islands Cartographer has confirmed how to assemble the Legendary Looking Glass.
 
  
Any hunter wishing to obtain one must follow these steps:
+
==== Regal Codex ====
  
*Recover a Liquid Lens from the Paragon of Water or the Empyrean Empress in a Hydro Reservoir
+
Unlock the new Regal Codex by hunting with any Regal Charm to find Regal Codex Pages as loot drops. Mice drop these pages both during and after the giveaway! The pages can then be turned in at the King's Arms for the Codex.
*Recover a Tactical Grip from the Paragon of Tactics or the Empyrean Empress in a Tactical Maze
+
 
*Recover an Antique Frame from the Paragon of Forgotten or the Empyrean Empress in a Forgotten Tomb
+
<center>''The codex allows you a chance to upgrade your existing Regal Charm into the next tiered version!''</center>
*Acquire an Adorned Empyrean Jewel and 1,000,000 gold
 
*Purchase a Legendary Looking Glass from the Floating Islands Cartographer

<div style="font-size: 115%>'''The Regal Codex will be a permanent addition to the King's Cart.'''<br>

 +
==== Rainbow Treasure Maps ====
 +
 
 +
Inside the King's Vault, hunters may have the option to select a Rainbow Scroll Case as one possible reward. This bright and colourful case contains a lengthy treasure map, which usually allows for six hunters to participate. However, hunters can upgrade their Rainbow Scroll Cases into a PARTY SIZE version by visiting the King's Arms or King's Cart. The exchange costs a regular Rainbow Scroll Case, 1 Rare Map Dust, and 50 Magic Essence. This jumbo scroll contains the same massive map, but allows for '''10 hunters''' to participate!
 +
 
 +
Whether you take on a regular or party size map they'll both lead to the same Rainbow Treasure Chest rewarding Gold, Points, Ancient Charms, Rainbow Charms, King's Credits, and more!
 +
 
 +
Not interested in completing such a huge map? Rainbow Treasure Maps can be completed at any time by claiming a consolation prize for a portion of the Points, Gold, and Ancient Charms based on the number of mice captured.
 +
 
  
==== The Mystery of the Subterranean Underpass ====
+
==== Royal Deals ====
March 2010 was the first time the Subterranean Underpass was mentioned. Entrenched in the lore of the mysterious Silth Mouse, this underground area came to be thought of as myth. It wasn't until hunters discovered a document from the Crystal Library that a certain Bookborn Mouse had in its possession that it became clear the Subterranean Underpass did indeed exist!
+
To celebrate the King's Giveaway, the King is offering royal deals on the most popular cheese in the Kingdom: SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+!
  
Upon this Bookborn discovering an Enchanted Page hinting at the existence of the passage, it quickly used its findings to scamper off to the Sky Palace in search of an Adorned Empyrean Jewel to create a Looking Glass of its own. The Jet Stream provided the perfect opportunity to infiltrate the palace without being noticed by its guards or any hunters where it quickly looted a jewel and returned to the Crystal Library. Although, not before acquiring a taste for the opulent flavour of Extra Rich Cloud Cheesecake.
+
Until the end of the giveaway, some of the most popular bundles of SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ are on sale with savings ranging from 10% all the way to 25% off.
  
After a day or two of sleuthing, hunters uncovered this hidden Bookborn Mouse by luring it out of hiding in the Crystal Library using its new found love of Extra Rich Cloud Cheesecake. With hunters now having discovered the Enchanted Page it wasn't long before the mystery of the Silth Mouse and the Subterranean Underpass was also solved.
+
Additionally, the King has put together some marvelous bundles, offering up the very best of his royal stash of Regal Charms and SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+, along with some Prize Keys to exchange towards a King's Vault prize, for a bargain!
  
With the King's excavation crew hard at work securing the passage, hunters can still experience solving this mystery to find special rewards!

*Step 1: Capture the hidden Bookborn Mouse in the Crystal Library using Extra Rich Cloud Cheesecake to obtain an Adorned Empyrean Jewel, Draft Derby Curds, and a new collectible Enchanted Page (Note: The Bookborn is so well hidden, not even your trap effectiveness meter will know it's there!)

A Reminder About Bonus Hunts

Bonus hunts do not affect area progression, consume cheese or charms, or trigger special hunting effects and abilities. This means bonus hunts will not do things such as move your submarine forward in the Sunken City, advance your position in the Valour Rift, affect rage levels in Whisker Woods Rift, etc.

The "special" bonuses specifically provided by your trap, base, charm, and aura(s) (not area bonuses like the Furoma Rift Droid) are taken into account as expected when encountering a mouse on a bonus hunt.
