Greetings,

To celebrate all things green, Spiral HQ has put the Lucky box for sale in the Supply Depot along with a few other lucky charms.

Act fast, as these will only be available for a limited time.

Spiral HQ calls upon you to once again assist the Tortodrones on their Long Migration. This migration is proving irresistible to the fiendish denizens of the Clockworks, who are gathering tortodrone parts for mysterious purposes! Take up arms to investigate and defend against this terrible mischief, and explore the Clockworks to gather fiendish glyphs.

Be sure to collect Ancient Shell materials from the Ancient Grove to craft 3*, 4* and 5* Tortodrone handguns and shields at the Mysterious Alchemy Machine!

The Spiral HQ intel forecasting interns predicts the Tortodrone migration will continue through February 22. We’re counting on you to protect the magnificent Tortodrones!

Ice and cold: beautiful and deadly, just like you, you majestic beast.

Also, best experienced through the window of a warm abode, with a cup of hot cocoa in hand. Perhaps not like you. But who can say?
