Tips from players (and me!)
1. It's not that you have one day to complete a chapter - it's that another chapter won't UNLOCK until the next day.
2. If you finish the chapter early, you have to wait for the remainder of the time to expire before the next chapter starts. You have to complete a chapter to begin the next chapter.
3. If you take longer than a day to complete a chapter then the next one will start sooner.
4. If you gem skip a chapter, the next one doesn't start sooner (you will wait even longer!).
5. The ability to find warm rocks and frost shards and to make the warming potion and the frost swords comes and goes. Be careful not to chop between chapters as NO ITEMS WILL DROP OR CAN BE CRAFTED.
So how much do I need?
Trees: 6 Yellow Acers | 7 Red Acers
Warming potions (3 warm stones, 10 hot peppers, 10 water): ch1x1; ch3x2; ch4x2; ch5x1; ch6x1; ch7x1; ch9x2; ch10x8 = 18
Frost swords (4 frost shards, 20 iron ore): ch1x1, ch3x2; ch4x2; ch7x1; ch10x8 = 14
Journey to the Snowy Mountains - 2 warming potions, 2 frost swords, 5 fur
Journey to the Frozen Forest - 1 warming potion, 1 frost sword, 1 simple feast
A blizzard has swooped into our kingdom without warning! It is completely unprecedented! I cannot find any similar incidents in my scrolls. We must look into this!
Chapter 1:
Goal 1 Collect warm stones 0/3 GO (skip 75 gems) | collect from rock outcropping

I think the best thing we can do is gather as many supplies as possible before the storm gets too out of hand!

Goal 2 Donate grits 0/3 GIVE (skip 15 gems) | reward: bacon
Goal 3 Harvest wheat 0/20 GO (skip 20 gems) | reward: fertilizer
I have been researching more into the storm, and it appears to be of unnatural origins, possibly from the snowy mountains! I suggest traveling there and looking into this mystery!
Chapter 3: ***GET RID OF ANY MONSTERS ON YOUR BOARD FOR GOAL 3 TO WORK***
Goal 1 Clear iron rich rocks 0/3 GO (skip 30 gems) | reward - Jewel
Goal 2 Journey to the Snowy Mountains 0/1 GO (skip 40 gems) | Castle, 3 hours - 2 warming potions, 2 frost swords, 5 fur | reward: silver ore + BOX DROP of 1 bear bait to place on your board. GET RID OF ANY MONSTERS FIRST.
Goal 3 Say hi to the lonely polar bear 0/1 | Find Polar Bear Bait in Snowy Mountains or your storage.
Goal 4 Defeat Yerik Bearson 0/1 GO | reward: Snowy Wall
That is so odd that all we found in the mountains was that angry polar bear. Maybe the storm is coming from the Frozen Forest?

Goal 2 Journey to the frozen forest 0/2 GO (skip 40 gems) | Castle, 2 hours - 1 warming potion, 1 frost sword, 1 simple feast | reward: sap
Goal 3 Defeat polar bearlings 0/5 | reward: creep tooth
Citizens have been complaining of bears drinking the taverns dry! Why have those feisty polar bears followed us back to the kingdom? Go check it out!
Chapter 5: ***GET RID OF ANY MONSTERS ON YOUR BOARD FOR GOAL 2 TO WORK***

Goal 3 Defeat enraged Yerik Bearson 0/1 GO (skip 20 gems) | reward: fur
This storm is only getting worse, and there must be a reason that the bears are here! I want to meet with their leader, Yerik Bearson, and get to the bottom of this!
Chapter 6:
Goal 1 Chop Yellow Acer Trees 0/6 GO (skip 60 gems) | reward: living wood clear 6 trees, not 6 chops
Goal 2 Craft an Ever-Hearth 0/1 GO | Workshop, 2 hours - 1 warming potion, 50 wood, 25 stone | reward: 2 chestnuts (you can make another while it's crafting if you want to...)
Goal 3 Cook Hearty Feasts 0/1 | reward: flour | The ones in inventory DO count, so you can make this in advance.
Goal 4 Visit Ivy's Hut 0/1 | reward:
Note: the Ever-Hearth is decorative
Apparently Yerik and his bears are out of work and just sleep the days away! Let us help them get back on their feet! I hear Yerik is a master carpenter! A bear carpenter! Amazing!
Chapter 7:
Goal 1 Journey to the Frozen Forest 0/1 | reward: faerie jar
Goal 2 Carve a Wooden Sled 0/1 GO | Workshop, 30 minutes - 50 wood, 5 simple glue | reward: chestnuts (you can make another while it's crafting if you want to...)
Goal 3 Train Polar Bearlings 0/10 GO (skip 100 gems) | reward: snow gate
Citizens can barely get around in the snow now, and Yerik wants to help more! With enough sleighs and sleds, we should be able to traverse the snowy kingdom easily!
Chapter 8:
Goal 1 Chop Red Acer Trees 0/5 GO | reward: glimmerbulb
Goal 2 Carve a red sleigh 0/1 | Workshop, 1 hour - 5 super glue, 50 wood, 4 red dye
Goal 3 Train Polar Bearlings 0/10 | reward: fish
Yerik told me he was going to nap after finishing that sleigh, and ever since the storm has been completely out of control! I think we might have finally cracked the case of this mysterious storm!

Goal 1 Clear Iron Rich Rocks 0/10 GO (skip 100 gems) | reward: mithril
Goal 2 Wake up Yerik Bearson 0/1 GO (skip 20 gems) 99 hits | reward: 5 red peppers
Goal 3 Craft Warming Potion 0/2 GO (skip 150 gems) | reward: chestnuts | you can prepare these in advance and wait till this goal comes up as it is the collecting that completes the goal
Goal 4 Ask for Gifts 0/20 | reward: 1 warm stone
Note: On goal 3, you will need to CRAFT the warming potion; the ones in inventory do NOT count toward this goal but can be used later for the adventures, so they don't go to waste.
I cannot believe that Yerik's cursed sleep was causing the storm all along! He is ever so grateful for our healing potions and wanted to make you something as a thank you!

Goal 3 Journey to Snowy Mountains 0/4 GO (skip 160 gems) - 3 HOUR ADVENTURES!| reward: After you collect the 4th adventure, Yerik Bearson is in your inventory.
The Grand Prize is yours!
