==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 1 ====
The King's Royal Explorers have returned from their exploratory expedition to Queso Canyon with detailed information about where to hunters can setup their camp sites. Hunters who have obtained the Queso Dowsing Rod from the Fort Rox Cartographer can now travel to this new region where there are three new areas to explore!
+
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
The areas in the region require the hunter rank of Count/Countess or higher to enter and the explorers recommend first setting up camp at the Queso River. The river contains a special pump, however, the mice there are relentlessly attacking it. You'll need to '''attract''' a mouse away from the pump '''and catch it''' to secure the delicious Bland Queso from the river!

Explore all that Queso Canyon has to offer to discover six unique varieties of queso. The pump at the Queso River will extract Bland Queso from the flowing river with each successful hunt which you can use to then hunt at both the Prickly Plains and Cantera Quarry.

Made from a secret source of wild desert flowers, Wild Tonic is a big ol' bottle of YEE-HAW! Its magical properties carry all sorts of benefits for hunters in the region. At the Queso River, Wild Tonic will aide your pump, DOUBLING the quantity of queso extracted. In the Prickly Plains, Wild Tonic will fertilize the soil to DOUBLE the quantity of spices dropped by mice. At the Cantera Quarry, Wild Tonic will violently erupt, blasting through the rock, DOUBLING the quantity of Nachore.

Congratulations MouseHunters, thanks to your valiant efforts, the Frost King's forces are retreating!
  
The pump at Queso River can also be doubled in efficiency by utilizing Queso Pump Charms. These trinkets of technology will operate your pump for you each time you capture a mouse ANYWHERE in the Kingdom (except magical locales like The Rift and related areas). The additional pump operation will not be affected by any bonuses such as Wild Tonic, but if you use them in the river your pump will effectively operate TWICE per capture.

Found amongst the rock and rubble surrounding the meteorite crater at Fort Rox are mysterious splintered sticks.

Capture the Monster of the Meteor to recover one of these lost Y-shaped rods and then have the Fort Rox Cartographer imbue it with 50 Dawn Dust from your inventory to create a Queso Dowsing Rod that will magically lead you to the flowing liquid Queso River.
 
  
Once the King's explorers have identified camp sites in Queso Canyon, any hunter with a Queso Dowsing Rod will be able to navigate their way into the cheesy canyon. The King's explorers expect to return in '''less than a week's time'''!
