Greetings Adventurers!
The Season of Enchantment has many secrets yet to be revealed. Continue helping the Spirits rebuild the new area tucked away in Golden Wasteland
Season of Enchantment
A new quest appears each Monday to help the spirits rebuild the mysterious area buried in the sands of Golden Wasteland. Please note the sixth and final quest to retrieve the orange light will not be available until June 11th. When you talk to the questgiver, there will be a countdown timer detailing the time remaining until the next quest to recover the colored light and return it to them. These quests are not Seasonal, award Regular Hearts, and will be available to complete after the Season of Enchantment has concluded. Once the area has been fully restored, the end of season cutscene will become available to view for anyone who has completed all six quests to recover the colored light.
