Christmas is Here! More Epona Quests! Yay!

Hey everyone, and welcome to Star Stable's first holiday update of 2015 – it's time for Christmas in Jorvik!

Christmas for the Councilman
Star Stable's Christmas classics are back! The Councilman in Silverglade Village is trying to prepare for the festive season, but it seems like he's taken on a little bit too much – it's easy to get overexcited at this time of year though, right?

This year's Christmas quests all start with Steve, so head to the farm and say hey before riding over to the village to give the Councilman a hand with the first of his holiday tasks!

Some players will remember these holiday quests from previous years, but completing them this year will get you some brand new rewards!


Christmas in Silverglade

Meanwhile, in Epona...
Grumpy old Professor Hayden. He's not the biggest fan of humans, but he loves insects! Help him gather samples of water, mud and creepy crawlies for his tests in Mirror Marshes, and maybe help him learn that people aren't so bad after all.

To start helping the Professor, you'll need to have completed last week's quest where you speak to Sunshine Joytree.


Professor Hayden doesn't really want your help, but he'll soon realise you're pretty useful.

New Clothes & Equipment!
The shops in New Hillcrest have got some exclusive new clothing and equipment on offer this week, and there's something for everyone with brand new clothes at the Mall!

Christmas Shops
A whole bunch of seasonal shops have popped up all over Jorvik, allowing you to get your Christmas shopping done in plenty of time! Go check out all the items on offer!

Horse Market
This week, the market is under construction at Jorvik Stables Arena.

Santa's Sack!
Jarlaheim is once again playing host to Santa Claus this Christmas, and he's ready and waiting for you to drop by and start getting your hands on some early presents!


Santa Claus is ho-ho-hoping to see you in Jarlaheim!

Some of the Christmas tasks and quests around Jorvik will reward you with "Christmas Wishes", which you can take to Santa and exchange for presents. Some rewards will come in the form of "Fragments of Christmas", and you'll need three of these to swap for a Christmas Wish.

The presents given to you by Santa in exchange for wishes are made up of a mixture of brand new gifts and presents from last year. Each gift is chosen totally at random from Santa's sack of goodies, so there's a chance you might get the same present more than once. To access the Christmas quests and goodies, you need to be a Star Rider and have reached level 5.

Here's how it works:

- Three Fragments of Christmas can be swapped for one Christmas Wish
- One Christmas Wish can be swapped with Santa for a random Christmas present
- To swap fragments for wishes, or wishes for presents, you need to have the fragments or the wishes in your rucksack
- You must be a Star Rider and have played through the game enough to be able to get to Jarlaheim

Have a great week!
