==== The Great Winter Hunt is Coming to an End ====
After considerable effort, dedication, and ingenuity, the brave MouseHunters of Gnawnia were able to solve the Mythweaver's mystery and uncover his latest sinister plot!
+
Congratulations MouseHunters, thanks to your valiant efforts, the Frost King's forces are retreating!
  
Thousands of MouseHunters came together and pooled their collective problem-solving skills to answer all six riddles after only six rigorous hours!
+
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.
  
Unfortunately, even though they were able to catch one iteration of the Mythweaver, he had already managed to write his concept into the next phase of his dastardly plan!
+
Soon all the snow will be gone and the Frost King and his forces will go into hiding for another year.
  
==== The Plot Thickens ====
 
From his extensive research while studying at the Crystal Library long ago, the Mythweaver learned of an alternate, albeit more difficult, way to alter the history and culture of this world: the long lost Folklore Tales.
 
  
After his initial plan to rewrite the Book of Lore failed, he decided to move on to his backup plan which was to obtain one of these lost books and write himself into it so that he could change its outcome from the inside!
+

==== A Precarious Agreement ====
+
The following changes have happened in the Taiga:
Most scholars believed that these fabled tomes had vanished from this plane of existence long ago. But the Mythweaver is nothing if not resourceful, so he made the pilgrimage to the Acolyte Realm to convene with an entity that was also not of this plane of existence.
+
*Mice are no longer dropping Golem Parts or Pecan Pecorino
 +
*Mice in Cinnamon Hill are no longer dropping Compressed Cinnamon
  
After striking a deal, the details of which are unknown, this entity was able to manifest a copy of one of the lost Folklore Tales for the Mythweaver. The book was a very old and very important story in Gnawnian culture: the Tale of the Bountiful Beanstalk.
+
The following things will remain the same '''until January 16''' when the event shuts down completely:
 +
*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>
  
==== A Narrow Escape ====
 
Sensing that the MouseHunters were closing in on him, the Mythweaver quickly wrote his concept directly into the book so that even though his physical form was captured, it was already too late!
 
  
Now he is roaming free inside the Tale of the Bountiful Beanstalk where he is safe from any MouseHunters and undoubtedly wreaking untold havoc!
+

==== Hope on the Horizon ====
+
Hunters can continue to send out Snow Golems until the event ends completely.
Despite not stopping the Mythweaver in time, hunters were successful in retrieving the Tale of the Bountiful Beanstalk which is currently being studied by the King's top scholars.
 
  
The scholars are confident that very soon they will have learned the ability to write the concept of a MouseHunter directly into the story just as the Mythweaver did.
+
After the event ends, the following items will melt away and be '''removed from your inventory''':
 +
*Golem Parts
 +
*Animated Snow
 +
*Reinforced Ice Shards
 +
*Compressed Cinnamon
 +
*Hailstones
 +
*Firework Sugar Cookies
 +
*Magical Holiday Scarf
 +
*Golem Gift Box
  
Once this amazing feat has been accomplished, the MouseHunters of Gnawnia who have reached the rank of '''Viceroy or above''' will be able to travel into this story and put a stop to the Mythweaver in whatever new form that he has written for himself!
