==== Excavation is Complete ====
 
The King's excavation team has finally finished securing the hidden subterranean underpass making it permanently safe for human exploration! At the furthest North end of the tunnel, just beneath the mountain range, the excavation team stopped when they discovered something that they did not expect: an immensely powerful, magical protective barrier. The barrier (or "veil" as some of them described it) looked almost like a mirror but with a strange and compelling reflection that defied explanation.
 
  
==== The Cartographer's Theory ====
+
==== The Great Winter Hunt is Coming to an End ====
Word of this protective veil spread quickly throughout the Kingdom and it caught the attention of the Floating Islands Cartographer who has recently been all-consumed by studying their profound new discovery: the Legendary Looking Glass. The description of the veil seemed uncannily similar to the inscription on the back of the looking glass' Antique Frame. The Cartographer was convinced that what the excavators discovered beneath the mountain must be the specific spot in Gnawnia referenced in that description: "where the veil between perception and imagination is very thin".
+
Congratulations MouseHunters, thanks to your valiant efforts, the Frost King's forces are retreating!
  
Upon sharing this revelation with the King, the King decided to test this bold and exciting theory by sending his most trusted subject: Larry, the Friendly Knight! The brave and noble Larry took the Legendary Looking Glass to this thin spot, opened his mind, and looked deeply into it and suddenly found himself on the other side of the reflection and inside the mythical Folklore Forest! What he discovered while there however, turned out to be very concerning...
+
After the relentless barrage of Hailstones from the brave hunters of Gnawnia, the Frost King's icy powers are waning and the Great Winter Taiga is beginning to thaw.
  
==== Larry's Terrifying Discovery ====
+
Soon all the snow will be gone and the Frost King and his forces will go into hiding for another year.
Upon entering the Folklore Forest, Larry discovered very quickly that someone... or something had beat him to it! According to legend, the veil was supposed to have protected this land from the mouse invasion that has gripped all the other regions of Gnawnia. But to his dismay, this mystical land has now been overrun as well!
 
  
One extraordinarily powerful mouse discovered the way through the veil and has let in a number of nasty and destructive mice along with him! Larry learned that this mysterious mouse, known as the Mythweaver, has devised a plan that threatens the very history of the Kingdom of Gnawnia!
 
  
==== The Book of Lore ====
+

The Folklore Forest is home to one of the most powerful and influential objects in existence: the Book of Lore. The enchanted pages within this book contain the entire history of Gnawnia since the dawn of time but unlike a traditional history book, if the words on these pages were to be changed then history itself will change with them!
 
  
The devious and dangerously clever Mythweaver learned of this powerful exploit and has made it his mission to rewrite history so that the mice become the celebrated heroes and the humans become the vanquished foes!
+
The following changes have happened in the Taiga:
 +
*Mice are no longer dropping Golem Parts or Pecan Pecorino
 +
*Mice in Cinnamon Hill are no longer dropping Compressed Cinnamon
  
==== A Call to Arms ====
+
The following things will remain the same '''until January 16''' when the event shuts down completely:
With all of history at stake, the King is calling upon the hunters of Gnawnia who are ranked Archduke/Archduchess and above to go forth into the Folklore Forest and stop the Mythweaver before it's too late!
+
*Golems can still be built and sent out
 +
*Cinnamon can still power the Forges in the Golem Part Workshop
 +
*Hailstones can still be fired at the Ice Fortress</div>
  
Purchase the Legendary Looking Glass from the Floating Islands Cartographer and begin your journey into a place where imagination is the ultimate power!

==== Go Forth and Explore Three New Locations! ====
+
Hunters can continue to send out Snow Golems until the event ends completely.
