CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
The yearly celestial event known as the Festive Comet has crashed into Gnawnia just south of the Town of Gnawnia Castle with a snowy kaboom! The collision instantly transformed the Kingdom into a wintery wonderland full of festive snow and holiday cheer! However, it seems one mouse is bent on destroying the snowy ambience by using several over-sized space heaters to melt the lovely festive landscape into a slushy and disgusting mess. Yuck!

Luckily, the blast of winter weather has also brought with it beloved Winter Snow Golems. These powerful friends can be sent out to any location you've mapped and gained access to in order to retrieve all sorts of useful goodies! Where you send your golems will determine the type of loot which with they return. However, no matter where you send them, they'll bring back Explosive Christmas Crackers. These festive ordnance are just what you'll need to demolish the space heaters which are trying to turn the Great Winter Hunt into the Great Muddy Waterfront. Again I say: Yuck!

Collect Pecan Pecorino to attract mice carrying golem parts and assemble a golem to send on a loot mission. Once dispatched, your golem will return, after you take 25 hunts, with valuable loot and Explosive Christmas Crackers. Carefully pull the tab on your crackers to detonate its cheer in the direction of a space heater, obliterating both in the process. The Shorts-All-Year Mouse has setup 10 heaters in a row, each larger the the last, requiring more and more explosives to destroy.

It's time to party down during a one week mapping extravaganza known as the '''Treasure Map Mega Party'''!
  
The Explosive Christmas Crackers provide a powerful, yet precise, bombardment. In the rubble of a demolished heater, you'll find useful Heat Exchanger Coils which you can re-purpose to upgrade your Golem Generators! Level up your golems to have them return with a greater quantity of more valuable loot, including more Explosive Christmas Crackers. Keep on upgrading and your loot collection abilities will really start to snowball!

====Brief Fashion Lesson in Shorts====

So gather twice as many map mates and get the mega party started!
  
If you manage to destroy all of the heaters setup by the Shorts-All-Year Mouse, you'll be able to confront him in the cold. In this weakened state, you'll be able to catch him with his pants down... so to speak. Capturing the Shorts-All-Year Mouse will recover a pair of Plain Shorts which you can then fashion into a much more elaborate festive version using the heads-up display.

Each time you capture the Shorts-All-Year Mouse, he'll drop another pair of Plain Shorts. Collect four to fashion each variety of festive shorts available. These shorts not only look amazing but are also incredibly itchy decorative!
+
If you're still on a map when the event ends, everyone currently on the map remains on it and can finish it. However, new hunters cannot be invited beyond the map's regular size.
  
Once fashioned into festive shorts, you can wear them to attract mice with a similar theme to your shorts. These themed mice in turn drop themed Sugar Cookies which you can spend at the various Winter Hunt shoppes for all sorts of rewards!

''Increases in power with each Acolyte Mouse Catch, adds bonus loot to Chrono Mouse''
 
This carefully tuned timepiece is capable of siphoning power from the Acolyte Mouse within the Acolyte Realm. Each time you capture an Acolyte, the trap's power within the Acolyte Realm will increase by 2,000! The Chrono Mouse is the only mouse capable of rewinding the timepiece, releasing bonus items in the process! The more Acolytes you capture with this trap before capturing a Chrono Mouse, the more loot the Chrono Mouse will drop, but doing so will also revert the trap to its original power.

Every day from December 1 to December 24, a new door on the Advent Calendar will be able to be opened. Opening a door '''always''' rewards an Advent Chocolate which you will be able to exchange during the Great Winter Hunt for a variety of unique trap skins, journal themes, and more.
 
 
 
If you open the door on the same day which it unlocks, you'll also receive a bonus item in addition to the Advent Chocolate!

The Festive Comet has entered the Gnawnian solar system and the fine astronomers employed by the King predict the comet will land just southeast of the Windmill where the Vacant Lot resides. For real this time.
 
 
 
As the news spreads through the Kingdom, so do rumours of a warm-weather loving mouse filling with spite and rage over the impending blast of winter. Once the comet lands and brings with it a winter wonderland, hunters are warned to keep an eye out for an all-year shorts-wearing mouse bent on ending any sort of celebrations involving snow and holiday cheer.
