Tips about the Event 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. There are 2 sets of requirements for this event - Low level is 15-30 and High level is 31-50

Just a reminder...the tiny terrarium and the little Fire pit from previous storybooks are both great sources of iron ore. They are both 1x1 and have a 2 hour timer. Very helpful when crafting lots of longswords!

Also don't forget to check the autumn raccoons and skunku-pets for wheat.
The harvest pergola for a chance at flour, bread, maybe grits(?), and possibly even a ready made simple feast!
The food shelter for bread.
The milk and dairy trades for bread and grits.
The frog prince, level 5 horse track & jousting arena, Thurston's fort, and knights hall for ready made long swords.

These aren't guaranteed drops, of course. But they happen often enough to make it worth the energy IMHO. I'm sure there are probably others I've missed, but those are my go-to collections.

Some of you were wondering about crafting an extra lily since we had to collect 3 wisps. I crafted 2 black lilies because they look cool, but you really won't need to worry about collecting from them very much since you only need 10 petals to craft the steed. The petals had no other purpose in the storybook. And the players who do not want the bear will still need 70 teeth in chapter 9, but you'll get most of those by fighting the 25 bears as part of the goals.

Some guidance on the 2 neighbour requests - how you might make it work:
* Keep a record of who is sending you requests as they are clearly active and playing the event.
* For the 1st request, limit requests to your most active neighours (those who have sent you a request) and try for about 40 requests.
* If those neighbours return your requests within a day, then it means for the 2nd request, they should also be the neighbours to target first.
* For the 2nd request, send your request to the same 40 neighbours including Stormie, then send out to everyone (just tick everyone).
* The second request overrides the 1st requests if your 1st request was not responded to (I know this is true...I have multiple accounts)
* Getting requests 4-7 days later is just the way gifting works. Not all of your neighbours a delivered a request at once.



Posted 11 May:

Thank you guys for all of your feedback on the event. Light and Dark Wisps will now drop more frequently from the 'Venture to the Forest" adventure.

If you're level 31+ and haven't spawned Dire Boars in your Kingdom yet, please follow #33 in the Story Outline Guide to complete the Goals in your Kingdom Goals and get the Dire Boars.
