As we continue our search, we must remain focused! Zero in on our goal - to save our faerie friends! Alarming though this situation may be, we cannot let ourselves be distracted. Let us worry about suspicions and accusations later! Even now, we must be getting close... Another scouring of the Plume Hive should do the trick!

[==Update requires completion of Close Enough, and will be here to stay.==]

I've been playing a game! Have you figured out this week's answer? The answer is: AZALEA

Notes on Troll Training Grounds (TTG)
1. In part one we upgraded the TTG to Level 3. It's optional whether or not you upgrade the TTG to L5 as upgrading is not a goal of either story part. You can upgrade if and when you want to. Drops at all levels are the same.
2. You can have 2 TTGs as they are a resource building.
3. Be careful when in edit mode as it can be sold.

I skipped ahead. The next step is to Search to the Plume Hive 3 times. Skip is 150 gems.

Each search uses 1 Tracker Kit, 5 Fey Crystals and 20 Faries Murmurs.

Yes, and the boars already sense something is up. I had to park a troll during the egg hunt, just to be able to collect...now that he's gone, the boars have all but disappeared. I sent the barracks knights to the feral lands to see if they can find any. Hopefully they will return with many pelts.

Seriously, I only like to battle monsters during Monster Hunting Seasons... Otherwise, I befriend a diff one as a temporary pet, depending on my mood. And right now, it's a green troll, as a remnant from St. Patrick's, lol.

I have a troll neighborhood in my kingdom where all the different resource options are placed (swampy pond, castle, Kaz's house, vault, pit, etc). I usually make a collection round a couple of times a day and have stayed maxed on troll essence. I've collected 4 since yesterday's crafting of the first Tracker Kit. Sometimes the boars will give you the essence. (Have to wonder how the boars got them and the tusks in the first place...)

Troll Essenes are easy to get. The training ground, glimmer fountain lvl 5, the swamp pond all have a chance to drop them. The glimmer fountain also drops mysterious venom.

What is only 8 hours? I just got sent on the only Adventure to the Plum Hive I have in my castle and it is 22 hours. Am I missing something?

The Tracking Kit takes 8 hours to make in the forge. Is that what you are talking about?

I made the Tracker Kit and when it was done I clicked on the search the Plum Hive, but mine is taking 22 hours. My barracks shows a 2 day adventure. Since this is a storyline quest I am not going to stress about it even if it does take 22 hours. I am in no rush and just glad to be back on a non-timed storyline quest. Maybe my game wasn't fully updated like I thought it was, but I will catch up eventually. That is the good thing about storyline quests. No pressure and eventually everyone will get there. I have plenty of time to battle direboars to keep my pelt numbers up, and I conveniently finished getting the Glimmeregg rabbit just before the update came on line. Glad to see Kaz is back!

After completing a first normal 22 hour adventure a new 8-hr one comes up which requires the tracking kit and the other two items. You need to do this 8-hr one three times and as far as I can tell you get nothing from this adventure (no gems, energy or items).

+ the new 8 hr adv is NOT in the barracks, only the castle.... SW

Ditto for me. My plum hive is taking 22 hours. PS. Thanks for bringing back the glimmer egg ability. We are a fickle lot. One minute we complaint about decorations and the next minute we complain about not being able to make more. I went to the app Store and saw that I could update the game, which I did. My second adventure is now 8 hours instead of 22. It's a big bummer that my first trip to the plum give did not register. I used the tracker and fairie stuff so now I am stuck collecting material for a 4th adventure.

If the cap is 5, I'm assuming you can get more if you keep chopping old logs. Can anyone confirm? I got the trinket from the second log and have chopped 3 more logs since... But no souvenir yet...

Can't get boars to appear now that I want to rebuild my pelt inventory. Strange isn't it ;) And no, I don't have any monsters lurking and I've been harvesting strawberry and cocco and collecting from know building:) Anyone else having similar issue?
Yes, same here. I've spawned only one dire boar since we've needed the pelts

Same here, not been able to get a second one. As we will need this one, I am inclined to continue shopping logs to find more. So far after a dozen extra, nothing. Need to wait I have an Ali ready.

I have still a reasonable spawn rate of Boars, no differences here. Also I tend to only harvest from selected sources as I only need some selected sources ATM.

I got two trinkets from the first log I chopped. I've chopped a few more logs since and haven't gotten another.

You don't have to finish chopping the logs.. I got my trinket on the second chop , it have a limit of 5 trinkets I was hoping more then one would drop , and I chopped extra long
Yea the problem is filling up my kingdom with logs that take up room. So far I've done 8 logs chopped twice. I have so many logs hidden that we couldn't sell.

I've done about 12 logs and nothing yet it's very random. If I chop my final log I'll see if I can find more.

I got the trinket on the first chop of the log but found no more when I finished so haven't bought or chopped any new logs.

I am also tripping over direboars so not noticing a shortage there. I rarely get anything from the Baron's tent but I did pick up the troll with the umbrella when he was available and I find he drops a lot of helpful troll items. Plus he has a high amusement value.

I just chopped another 48 logs trying to get a second trinket with no success. I'm guessing it is not possible. Also, I can't recall anyone getting multiple copies of the other clues and this is sort of a clue.

Hi, I've done about 25 additional logs and decided to come here to see if anyone has had a second thicket trinket drop. The max is set at 5, so that's why I thought we may be able to collect more.

You find Azalea hiding in the dead trees. It took me something like 7 chops to find her, I think? She's in my inventory now. :)

That seems quite abrupt. You must be right that it will continue. There was a lot of chopping at the edge of the brush. Do you think there will be something hidden in the next expansions like they used to do early on on the game, when the story took geography into account? I hope we get expansions soon because once again my kingdom is getting quite crowded. I was glad to see a return to the storyline. Looking forward to Part 3.

I have never received part one part two's new update with Katz. I play every day but I did not get this goal. I did see it on some other boards but I did not know what it was all so I have a I OS so I should have it and I am still chopping rocks trees and flowers searching for the glimmerwood private investigators and believe me I have chopped a lot of rocks and trees and checked a lot of flowers during this Easter egg hunt and still have not got the third finding can you tell me why I never received the part one of this update? This update does this have something to do with it because it does say that it is blocked by a goal but I have to receive the first one in order to get to 2. My farieblub was at a level 5 and I went on many adventures but nothing ever happened to the bulb and I still only receive money from it. No drops if there is any. I looked at the link and it didn't have anything to do with the private investigators and part one so I'm not sure what's going on and I am unable to participate in this quest due to never reciveing the first half.......is this a goal that has to be done in A timely manner ? Can you see what is going on and let you know why I have not gotten this far that's I have spent plenty energy enough to find the third part of the private investigator and because all I did was chop rocks, trees, and flowers during the Easter hunt. thank you very much.

This is a core storyline, so it actually depends where your at with the main story. This comes after you build the troll trading grounds quest if you're not there then you have aways to go. This quest does not depend on your operating system but where you're at in the game. Hope this helps

I collected for the 5th time and the fairy said, "this is what I found out." or something like that and then it disappeared before I could see anything else. Is that it? I was so excited to collect the last time and nada. Was there a prize? I do not see anything new at all in my inventory and the goal is gone. All I have left is the Stable one (mitts)
