Castle Story: 02/06/2014 Pink Alicorn-LIMITED

[Aggwynn]

Hi All!

We hope you're ready for today's update

1) Valentine Quest Line
- Available to players Level 16+
- Complete this quest line for a big surprise
- There are 3 Limited Time quests embedded in the quest line. You do not need to complete them in order to progress, but completing them will help you get ahead.

2) Pink Alicorn is available for purchase in the Market
- Unique Pink Alicorn is available for this month only
- Like the legendary white Alicorn, this one drops energy as well! But due to the nature of the Pink Alicorn (immature, and very young) the energy that it drops will be in random amounts.


Next week will be fun for those who have Greselda =O

- Aggwynn and Glimmergate

[MiniLaura]

Edit- 3-2-14- The option to purchase the Pink Alicorn will be removed on Monday- 3-3-14.

General Goal Notes:
* Once you start this quest line, you have an UNLIMITED amount of time to finish it. (But the timed goals are still timed. However, you do not have to complete them to continue the quest line. Completing them just helps you do the entire quest line faster.)
* As you can see from the requirements, this quest line was designed to take a long time to complete.
* However, the quest line will expire/disappear IF YOU DO NOT START IT. So start the quest line by visiting Old Thomas even if you don't want to pursue the entire quest line right now.
* The first goal (Rumors Start Somewhere) will expire on February 28, 2014. You must start that goal to be able to continue the quest line!

Thank you TL for this update

Baby alicorn has a four hour tending cycle. It takes seven tends to grow.

The pink alicorn, once fully grown and tended, gives energy once per 22 hours. I sped it up a few times to test, and it gave me 4, and 5 energies respectively.

Are you sure it is 50 feathers? That requires 50 red dye!

[MiniLaura]

Are you sure it is 50 feathers? That requires 50 red dye!

I just copy what people tell me. I'm still making ingots!

[professorcharizard]

It says on the first page that bartering for feathers and/crafting feathers will drop more than one at a time so you won't need to make 50 red dye, and the bartering part with the stout axes is the only part that's timed so I'm assuming that once that times out it will unlock the option to craft them in the workshop or wherever.

[lordviv]

Are you sure it is 50 feathers? That requires 50 red dye!

It also means 20 white petals x 50 = 1000 white petals???? Is this right.. This sounds insane

MiniLaura,
Thanks for providing details concerning the goals. This is going to be fun!

The time limit is 24 hours (I will add an image to post #191)

[newzealander]

The time limit is 24 hours (I will add an image to post #192)

does this his drop more than one axe at a time? Because 10 axes, at 2 hours each (20 hours) within 24 hours is extremely hard if you work or want to sleep. Just wondered if maybe more than one axe drops at a time?
