I'm stoked from all the excitement around our crossover! Really cool seeing AQW players check out DF, and DF players giving AQW a shot!
Though almost-Christmas isn't Christmas, it's going to be a chill week so instead of All-Around Lore, here's a little Behind the Scenes Trivia

#DragonFable A quiet, cold, winter's night, perfect for stargazing. But hold on, is it maybe getting a little bit... too cold? An unnatural freeze is setting in, fast. What could be going on? dragonfable.com/gamedesignno...

A Shadow had slipped into Castle Whistler, and it was easily found. Our Hero apprehended the surprise guest, and locked them away. They'll have a great time at the gala, and deal with this later.
This Shadow's legend will continue to go unsung.

Tara and Victoria chatted about the delicious meals served at Yulgar's Inn. Nobles and commoners were going to be welcomed to the Gala. Perhaps comforting, warm meals would better connect them.
To that end, Serenity was invited to be the head chef, but she turned the offer down.

Hm, if I angle it there...tweak that so it makes sense, and line them up just right...Looking pretty snazzy! Let's try it out!
One, two, three...go!
The snow was beginning to make Tara's footprints disappear. She'd have to save decorating the courtyard for the very last minute.

I'm so stoked about this week's release, it's been a real relief sharing little bits through the previews after jumping up and down about it in private for so long 😊 Literally bursting at the seams, and excited cause of all the beautiful work the team put into it!

Release is live! It looks like you caught Oishii red-handed in an act most foul! Just kidding. She isn’t actually cooking your friends (even if she was sneaking slurps behind your back). The both of you need to save Twilly from some devious Fairies, and rescue their Moglin Meals!
