Frostval: Song of the Frozen Heart

Part 2 of the Frostval event has been released. There were 2 new areas, /alpine and /icevolcano. The story starts when a deadly snow falls and turns the people of Lore into ice zombies. Blizzy takes you on quests to find the Flame of Frostval. He takes you back in time to when Gravelyn was still a child, and had never experienced a Frostval. You go to the Alpine Forest and do some quests. She returns to the fortress to show her father, Sepulchure, what she had done. Sepulchure turns her away. Frustrated, she goes back to another room and finds that its filled with Undead Frostval stuff. Chuckles rolls out and she finds that he set this up for her. Her father allows this. The Flame of Frostval is found. Blizzy takes you back to the present. In the next release, You find Chilly, Blizzy's son, who tripped and fell when the ice zombies came. You go to the ice volcano, which resembles the volcano in Arcangrove. You find that Dead Morice is responsible for this. His ice venom cant infect the moglins, so he freezes them in ice. Once you finish Chilly's quests, you battle Morice. Once you defeat Dead Morice, he falls apart. You hold up the Flame of Frostval and melt the ice venom. The scene goes back th the village of Frostvale, where everybody is exchanging gifts and celebrating. Empress Gravelyn has a cameo appearance in this cutscene; she is looking at a picture of her father and herself on the night of Frostval where you and Blizzy traveled in time to. Gravelyn looks up and talks to her father. The scene switches back to the village of Frostvale. Blizzy asks you if you wonder what Empress Gravelyn is doing. You say that she is probably celebrating in her own way, with her undead.

 Here are some Christmas song variations that my friends told me:

1. Crashing through the snow
    On a pair of broken skis
    Over the hills we go
    Crashing through the trees
    The snow is turning red
    I think I'm almost dead
    Oh all I want for Christmas is a hospital and bed! (Tune of Jingle Bells "Dashing through
    the Snow")

2. Jingle Bells
    Stalin Smells
    Hitler is a jerk!
    Mussolini bit his weenie
    Oh this doesn't work! (Tune of Jingle Bells Theme)

3. Derp, Derp, Derping all the way! (On AQ Worlds Design Notes)

4. Oh the weather outside is delightful
    but my fiery is frightful (Tune of "Let it Snow," said by Xan in DragonFable

Dead Morice

Ice Zombie

Chilly
