Festival of Fire 1

In the past, when the frost and snow fell and the moon disappeared from the sky, the Frostmoon Demon Beast Thysdyr would awaken from his sleep and cause destruction everywhere. At the time, the people had no way to stop him, so they could only flee. They would wait for Thysdyr to leave, then return to rebuild their homes. The villagers lived through this nightmare year after year, until one year at this time, a strangely-dressed traveler came to visit even though he knew the terrible beast would attack.

That night, as Thysdyr's angry roar drew nearer and nearer, the traveler sat in the empty city, quietly waiting... The next day, the villagers returned to find their village untouched. Surprised, they asked the traveler what had happened. It turns out that Thysdyr was afraid of rune-catalyzed flame. This exciting news spread quickly to all the nearby villages. After that, every time the Frostmoon Beast awoke, he could only continue to hide in the darkness.

Many years have passed, and Thysdyr hasn't been seen for a long time. But every year when the snowy season arrives, people build a giant pyre and dance around it, throwing in rune catalysts. They celebrate day and night, and call the celebration the Festival of Fire. [1]

Flame Altar

 Arcane Flame Skill
Arcane Flame effect
Thought Bondage

Go to Varanas Gates, find the Flame Altar, and get as much Arcane Flame as you can carry (100)! Now target a Hungry Mouse and use the Arcane Flame skill (Alt-1) to drive it away. When you target the Hungry Mouse, make note of his Ferocity level. If your Arcane Flame is less than his Ferocity you will need more Arcane Flame! If his Ferocity is more and you use Arcane Flame anyway, you will be struck with Thought Bondage and unable to move for a few seconds.

Be aware that your Arcane Flame will slowly die out. When it gets low, return to the Flame Altar to get more! Also, gathering Arcane Flame does not dismount you but using the Arcane Flame does.

Note: If you ask Ajis where the Flame Altar is, he will offer to send you directly there.

Chef's Hard Work

Once you have the meat, use the Silverfall Fire next to Drake Gates, choose a recipe, and use the Extinguish skill to douse the flames at the right moment! You must rest 3 hours after each cooking attempt.

Hint: We strongly recommend you use 2 rows in your bags to keep the food organized so you know at a glance which foods you have and which you have yet to perfect. Every time you cook, strive to fill one of the holes.

Varanas Gates/Bridge[ | ]

Ignite the Holy Fire Altar[ | ]

She wants you to drive one of the Holy Flame Chariots and use it's Holy Flame to ignite 7 altars within 60 seconds.

Warnings!

  • The chariots have a very large turn radius
  • The mouse moves your viewpoint only. Only WASD and up-down-left-right will move the chariot. Think of it like driving a tank.
  • The altars tend to be among obstructions to force you to eat time getting in and out.
  • You are not there to shoot flame. The whole front of the chariot is on fire. Just bump into the altar to light it.

You receive a chess piece of a certain color. Clicking on a Pure Rune Crystal will change it's color into the color of the chess piece you are holding. When 3 or more chess pieces of the same color line up your team will score. Think "Bejewelled". Diagonals work as well as straight rows or columns.

  1. After registration, you must wait 60 seconds to start the game.
  2. Up to 4 challengers may play at the same time.
  3. Registration is closed while the game is being played.
  • Chess Piece colors are: Red, Yellow and Blue. The color changes after each use.
  • work each row or column from the ends toward the middle so you get 5 gems instead of 3. This increases your score considerably.

Advice when playing in a team: Agree beforehand to assign a specific color to each row or column.

Hint: Drop a trap near the mob, smack it lightly (not enough to kill it! Best would be to use a debuff to anger it without doing damage!) then kite it across the trap to snare it.
