Previously, the party saw the fall of Castle Graceskull and acquired the legendary Armour of Orgo. Only one piece of legendary equipment remains now, the legendary sword. Leads indicate that it may be in the snowy lands west of Pescado.

For another lead, they zoom to the rogue town of Turnscote in the east of the world (time 1:28). To enter, the party will need a reference from a man living near a large snowy mountain across the sea to the east, which is on the western side of the globe.

From Turnscote, the party can reach the appropriate area by flying or sailing east and wrapping around to the western side of the world. As they reach land, they will find a building on the northern side of a river (time 2:39). This is the inn south of Mt Snowhere. People here seem to be in search of someone named Ali Kazam, but it sounds like they're about fifty years too late, for some reason. It sounds like Kazam knew the words to lift the seal on the legendary sword, so maybe the party should see if he's still kicking. Or if, barring that, they can at least commune with his spirit.

In the northwest room of the inn, the middle barrel contains Mini Medal #080 (time 5:04).

Northeast of the inn, the party finds the path leading up to the snowy mountains. No ridiculous snowboarding game here, at least, but there are monsters.

Along the way, Amos, the Local Hero, reaches Level 30 (time 6:22). Neven reaches Mage Rank 2, Apprentice, and learns Sizz and Dazzle.

Atop the southern plateau in the snowfields, the party finds the chilly town of Mt Snowhere (time 7:25). This town is suffering a terrible blizzard, and everyone is frozen in ice. Something seems unnatural about this.

Only a couple of people are unfrozen. One is a soldier downstairs in the inn. He will let the party spend the night for 200 gold.

In the eastern house just north of the inn, the wardrobe contains a Fur Hood (time 11:44).

In the northeastern house's main level, the party finds the volume 'Time and Confessions' (time 12:37). Has some intelligence service been at work redacting information here?

Downstairs in the northeastern house, the chest of drawers contains Mini Medal #081 (time 13:27).

Also down here, they find an unfriendly old man (time 13:38). As they go to leave, he tells them not to visit the shrine to the northeast. Well, guess where they have to go next! Even Heorot's party members reach the same conclusion.

After leaving town, the party visits the Shrine of Winter to the northeast (time 15:22). This shrine features a delightful slippery floor. The party will continue to slide forward until they reach an obstruction.

Here, the party finds a lady sitting on the throne (time 15:57). She advises them to seek a "young" man named Colburn in Mt Snowhere.

So, the party returns to Mt Snowhere (time 17:01). As they go downstairs in the northeastern house, they find that the old man has a familiar visitor (time 17:16). Evidently, Terry is in search of the legendary sword, as well.

Then, the party talks to the disagreeable old man (time 17:49). This turns out to be Colburn. Evidently, the shrine has to do with why he is what he is now.

So, the party makes tracks back to the Shrine of Winter (time 19:05). There, they talk to the lady on the throne again (time 19:19). She is actually Gerda, the Snow Maiden, protector of the winter wonderland. She rescued Colburn after he had collapsed on the mountain. She told him not to tell a soul about her, but when he did, she frosted all the village except for him. Now, she thaws out the village. She reminds the party never to reveal that they met her. It's a deal.

Before returning to Mt Snowhere, the party Zooms to Medford's Manor in the dream world (time 23:18). They talk to King Medford within (time 23:44). For bringing him 80 Mini Medals, he rewards them with the Glombolero. It isn't all that great in terms of defence, but it does allow its wearer to absorb some MP occasionally when struck with an enemy spell. The reward at 90 medals, the Dragonic Diligence, is much better, as it allows its bearer to take on the powerful Dragon vocation.

Next, the party returns to Mt Snowhere in the real world (time 25:31). People are now on the move in town. Yay! In the next episode, they will go around and talk with the townspeople.

Thanks for watching!
