The Spirit of Giving Quest and Christmas Meal Boxes Collection Mission





A new 11 day quest has been released in tandem with a Collection Mission.  THIS POST NOW IS COMPLETE!

Both Digging Pet Chests and Fishing 8 times with a Bone Hook are required in the second half.  Do not let your Pets dig all Chests, therefore, before the task becomes active, and do not cast a Net if you wish to complete as quickly as possible.

Note from Freyashawk:  As always, your votes for HM. Freyashawk are much appreciated.  A larger total appears to be necessary each Contest to stay in the top 10.  Whether I make it this time or not, I am grateful for every single vote.  It is a vote of confidence in this site and the work I do.  Many thanks.
