The End of the Christmas Season!
Hi guys, and welcome to the update where we’re finishing off the holiday season with some fun activities!
No more snow!
The winter’s on Jorvik are chilly but short, and the snow has now thawed away again. If you ever miss the snow you can always pay a visit to Dino Valley!
Jorvik's Last Christmas Presents
For as long as anyone can remember, it's been tradition in Jorvik to round off the holiday season by hunting down one very last hidden present. This of course means there are treasure hunters all over the island, each looking for one last chance to capture that magic moment when you tear open the Christmas wrapping to uncover the lovely surprises inside!
Mrs Holdsworth will tell you what to do!
Begin by riding over to Mrs Holdsworth in Moorland and she'll tell you the story of Jorvik's yearly tradition of hunting for the final Christmas present, and get you started on your very own search! Listed below are all the people who have hidden gifts for you, and the quests you'll need to have completed to be able to unlock the present-hunting quest:
★ Professor Jura in Firgrove: You need to have left a picture of Mr Sandman with Elizabeth
★ Elsa Einstein in Dino Valley: You need to have checked for mail with Nic Stoneground
★ Jamie Olivetree in New Hillcrest: You need to have given the gluten-free bread to Ricky
★ Catherine at Jarlaheim: You need to have brought Ms Drake a coffee from Stablebucks
★ Pamela Moonriver in Crescent Moon Village: You need to have poured sand into GED's petrol tanks around Old Ridgecaster
★ Mayor Klaus in Cape West Fishing Village: You need to have told Mayor Klaus how you got the key to the city back
★ Marley at Marley's Farm: You need to have met Carney at the Vineyard.
These quests will not show up in your quest log, and don’t forget that you have to talk to Mrs Holdsworth in order to begin the present-huntings.
Christmas Wishing Porridge
This is Robert, and Robert happens to like Christmas wishing porridge. What on earth is Christmas wishing porridge? Well, every Christmas in Jorvik, the islanders fill up on delicious sweet porridge that's a lot like rice pudding. Inside the pudding there's always a whole almond, and if you're lucky enough to find it, you get to make a wish!
Robert wants to share the traditional porridge!
You can find Robert and his magical dessert in Crescent Moon Village, New Hillcrest, Jarlaheim, Cape West Fishing Village, Silverglade Village, Fort Pinta and Moorland. Go have a taste of the porridge for a fun surprise!
James' Cleaning 'Race'...
James can't even use the holiday season to give himself a break from being a lazy little conman. The cheap trickster wants you to do all his work, but be sure to get him to pay you a fair price for doing it!
In Fort Pinta, James will have a few ‘races' for you where you have to pick up all the stuff left over from Christmas and make the place look nice and tidy again. Each race is harder than the last one, and if James can let go of his greediness for just a few minutes he might even get you a reward for helping him!
Horse Market
Eddie and Ferdinand is open for business in Fort Pinta during this week!
Star Stable Game News
Game Master Ylva and Matilda are still enjoying their winter holiday. Don’t worry, they’ll be back soon!
Have a great week everyone!
