==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 2 ====
The eerily glowing moon signals atop the Spooky Sandcastle have pulled a massive meteor towards Gnawnia! The otherworldly chunk of rock has crashed into Varmint Valley, just south of the Gnawnian Express Station.
+
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
The cosmic radiation from the glowing chunk of space rock has had a profound effect on the local mice -- they're transforming into powerful weremice at night! The King needs the help of Baron/Baroness (and up) hunters to setup a defensive grid between the meteorite and the rest of Varmint Valley. Get ready to embark on a lycan-slaying, mutant-hunting endeavour, hunters!

====Building Your First Wall====
+
----
The first line of defense you'll build is a basic wall made of sturdy Meteorite Pieces. Fortunately, the mice in Fort Rox seem to be adept at mining and have been spotted carrying massive quantities of Meteorite Pieces around the area. Setup your trap with a Law power type weapon and Brie, Gouda, or SUPER|brie+ to start hunting these meteorite-dropping mice!
 
  
Keep an eye out for the Mining Materials Manager Mouse -- this mouse drops the most Meteorite Pieces of all! You'll encounter this mouse most often by using SUPER|brie+.

====Hunting at Night====
+
==== Write the Mythweaver's finale at the Conclusion Cliffs! ====
Once your defenses are prepared, click the "Defend Fort" button on the HUD to indicate you're prepared for the coming night. When night falls, the relatively normal mice change from mild-mannered miners to enraged Weremice!
+
After months of Fighting the Blight and Riding the Rapids, the brave and resilient MouseHunters of Gnawnia have finally discovered the final step in the Mythweaver's ultimate plan.
  
Each hunt you take during night will bring you closer to dawn. When night first falls, you'll encounter Weremice that are weak to Shadow traps, however, as dawn approaches, more Cosmic Critter mice will appear that are primarily week to Arcane traps. The Fort Fox HUD will help you spot when it's time to change your setup.
+
The Mythweaver is making his last stand at the peak of the '''Conclusion Cliffs''' overlooking the Kingdom.
  
During night, it's best to use one of two lunar-themed cheeses to lure the Weremice and Cosmic Critters towards your trap and away from your wall. If you fail to attract or fail to capture a mouse, it will slip past your trap and assault your wall, causing damage.
+
The King is calling upon all hunters ranked '''Viceroy and above''' to ascend to that great precipice with their trusty droids and conclude the Mythweaver's story once and for all!
  
'''Crescent Cheese'''<br/>
+
==== The Folklore Forest Ends Here ====
Crescent cheese is crafted by combining three Meteorite Pieces and three Curds and Whey. It has an attraction rate slightly better than Gouda during night and will lure a few more mice that drop valuable resources and loot.
+
If you haven't already picked up the '''Mythweaver's Guide to World Domination''' then visit the '''Draconic Depths Cartographer''' to purchase it for 2,000 Dragon's Breath Opals and 1,000,000 Gold.
  
'''Moon Cheese'''<br/>
+
Owning this book will unlock access to the Afterword Acres, Epilogue Falls, and Conclusion Cliffs.
Moon Cheese is crafted by combining one Meteorite Piece, three Curds and Whey, and two Magic Essence. It has a near-perfect attraction rate during night and will lure more mice that drop valuable resources and loot!
 
  
*'''100 Moon Cheese'''
+
==== Every Good Story Needs a Hook ====
:Avoid the Battering Ram Mouse!
+
Use the '''Plot Hooks''' you earned in the Epilogue Falls to craft '''Plotting Paneer Cheese''' which will be essential to thwarting the Mythweaver's final plan.
*'''250 Moon Cheese'''
 
:Collect more loot!
 
  
'''Other Cheeses and the Battering Ram Mouse'''<br/>
+
This pivotal and powerful cheese can be purchased in the Cheese Shoppe at the Conclusion Cliffs or crafted from the area's Heads Up Display.
Lurking throughout the night is the fearsome Battering Ram Mouse. This mouse has been specially-trained by being constantly exposed to light from the moon in order to keep him in his enraged state. At night, when the moon is out, this mouse will charge headlong towards your fort, unimpeded by traps, and will always cause damage to your wall even if captured!
 
  
However, if you use Crescent or Moon Cheese, the presence of two sources of moonlight will confuse this mouse and send him into a blind, uncontrollable rage, causing him to flee from the battlefield altogether, screaming incoherently.
+
With Plotting Paneer armed, your droids will have what they need to start writing a conclusion to the Mythweaver's story.
  
====Upgrading your Fort====
+
==== Raise Your Authorial Reputation ====
*'''Wall'''
+
In order to find the Mythweaver in his final form, you'll need to establish yourself as a successful writer by raising your '''Notoriety''' in all the major literary genres.
:Upgrading your wall will increase its health, allowing your wall to withstand more damage during night!
 
  
*'''Moat'''
+
Once your Notoriety is high enough, you'll be capable of writing the most awe-inspiring genre of all: '''Fantasy'''.
:The moat will reduce the damage your wall takes when failing to capture or failing to attract a mouse.
 
  
*'''Ballista'''
+
Fantasy is the only genre powerful enough to attract the '''Ultimate Mythweaver''' himself!
:The Ballista specifically targets Weremice, Shadow type mice found in the early parts of the night. As you upgrade the Ballista, it will gain more specialized abilities to help capture Weremice.
 
  
*'''Cannon'''

Once you've upgraded your fort, your defenses should be able to hold back the mice and allow your wall to remain standing when dawn arrives. The rising light summons two more big, bad mice to assault the fort in an epic final showdown: The Dawn Guardian and the Monster of the Meteor.

During dawn, your wall will still take normal damage when failing to capture these mice. However, each time you defeat the Monster of the Meteor, it will enrage him and his company of guards, causing them all to inflict more damage should you fail to capture them.
