====A Strange Discovery... Toy Stockpiles====
+
==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 1 ====
−
Strange reports are pouring in from across the Kingdom from hunters discovering hidden stockpiles of pre-assembled toys. These toys, although made of wood, cogs and metal, are slightly different than those being built by hunters.
+
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
−
The slight modifications, and the fact that the toys were so carefully hidden suggest they were assembled for sinister purposes. Could a mouse be secretly assembling toys? What possible motive could the enemy have for constructing toys and hiding them across the Kingdom?
+
==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 2 ====
 +
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
−
While hunting with Festive Feta, you may come across a Toy Stockpile. When you do, you'll see it as a loot drop in your journal. These stockpiles will not be added to your inventory, and instead be immediately sent to the King to contribute toward the community toy drive goal.

Larry has given a quick inspection to the inventories of hunters and has noticed an alarmingly large quantity of toy parts siting idle! There are currently an abundance of parts, enough to increase the toy drive goal for Clockwork Toys by more than 30%, and the Metal Toy goal by more than 25%!
+
----
  
−
Spread the word amongst your hunting group to start building toys with these idle parts! Together we can reach the King's Toy Drive Goal!

===Festive Comet Arrives: Calamity Carl's Toy Factory Obliterated===
 
−
''{{date|07|December|2011}}''
 
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
  
−
What happens when a massive comet of holiday cheer traveling at 70 kilometres per second collides with a hastily built toy factory? A festive explosion causing snowy toy parts to be flung across the entire Kingdom!
+
'''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!
  
−
Poor Calamity Carl now has his factory buried under snow and all the toys he and his team so diligently built have been smashed into pieces and scattered across the Kingdom.
+
==== Classes have begun at the School of Sorcery! ====
 +
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 King now needs your help to right Carl's plan and rebuild the lost toys! The mission will not be easy, requiring special festive bait and traveling across the Kingdom, pushing the limits of your hunting expertise!
+
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.
  
−
====Finding Scattered Toy Parts====
+
==== 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.
  
−
The impact of the comet caused toy parts to be spread across the Kingdom, where they quickly fell into the paws of mischievous festive mice. To make matters worse, the festive vermin have become wise to the hunters' tricks from previous years. No longer do they come near traps baited with sweet gingerbread or carefully seasoned gouda. But do not lose hope, for the secret to attracting Festive Mice lies at the comet itself -- Festive Feta Cheese!
+
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.
  
−
The King's cleanup crew has already discovered a large deposit of Festive Feta and is handing out rations inside hunters' daily Loyalty Chests. Additionally, if you find yourself needing some more, you can hunt at the Festive Comet and search for a few extra pieces. As an added bonus, the very first time you travel to the Festive Comet the King will give you 30 free pieces of Festive Feta.
+
==== Lessons in the Science of Refraction ====
 +
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.
  
−
Once you've obtained some Festive Feta, it's time to hunt for mice carrying toy parts! Head anywhere across the entire Kingdom and use Festive Feta to lure winter mice out from their hiding spots. Try hunting in different locations, and you'll no doubt find different toy parts depending on where you choose to hunt.

Looking to further fine-tune festive mouse hunting? Winter Charms are made from small flecks of the Festive Comet itself, which is the only known means of attracting the rare Snowflake Mouse. Snowflake Mice drift across the Kingdom on the cool winter breeze, picking up various knick knacks and odd ends they find -- including recently displaced toy parts! If you find yourself with a surplus of Festive Feta, trade some in at the Festive Comet Charm Shoppe for Winter Charms before heading out in search of toy parts.

The Vacant Lot south of the castle is no stranger to visitors and festivities. The land is owned by the King and often rented to those looking to host celebrations or parties. For whatever reason, however, tenants tend to shy away from the area during late November, and despite the King dramatically lowering the cost of rent, no one has shown interest in renting the lot.
 
−
 
 
−
Just as the King had given up hope of finding a tenant, a particularly festive hunter named Calamity Carl came to Gnawnia asking to build a toy factory where he and his merry toy makers could produce toys for all the young hunters of Gnawnia. Delighted by the offer, the King gladly offered the lot free of charge to Calamity Carl, and almost overnight an amazing toy factory was built!
 
−
 
 
−
Despite having a reputation for not entirely thinking his plans through, Carl's mission to produce delightful toys is going extremely well! In only a few days Carl's team has already produced a massive number of festive toys. It seems his plan to bring a smile to the face of each young hunter will be a great success!
 
−
 
 
−
With Calamity Carl's plan to spread festive cheer, this upcoming Great Winter Hunt is sure to be the best ever! Wish Carl luck and knock on wood that his plan stays free of any minor setback!
