Jorvik Star Issue 9: Christmas Edition Part 1 🎄

 ðŸŽ„★Jorvik Star★🎄

Issue 9 ★ December Month

A Note from the Writer/Editor: 

So sorry this issue was a bit later than planned. Christmas time is so busy and chaotic, especially this year, that I completely forgot to post the day after the update! I'm going to just give a summary and my thoughts and talk about the new Generation 3 Jorvik Friesian since that's this week's Wednesday update. Hopefully in 2021 there will be more amazing updates so I will feel like posting an update every week, give or take a couple weeks, especially if vacations are able to happen again soon. 
I will try to post a special post either on Christmas Day or the day after where I will give my full review of Heidrun.

It's Christmas!

It's officially Christmas in Jorvik! Snow is falling everywhere, even though the magic of the island keeps it from covering the ground, helping to keep the flora and fauna happy. The rivers and lakes, however, have somehow frozen over. We can now cross rivers without taking the bridge, making traveling around Jorvik so much easier, especially getting from Firgrove area to Moorland or Fort Pinta. 

Animals such as bears, moose, deer, and even penguins have joined in on the fun, and may even tag along on your journey! 

Wild Brinicles, Fawncys and Heidruns have come out of hiding to be tamed.

Oh, and James is up to his money-making schemes again. Now he's getting people to pay Jorvik Shillings to play in a pile of snow. 

Many of the residents have gathered inside the stables with blankets, pillows, and delicious cookies and might even tell a story.

Winter is also the best time to spot the Northern Lights at night. If you  are more active during the night hours you'll definitely be able to see them.

The elves at the Christmas Village decided to put out gifts every day for everyone to open and get a special gift. Don't worry if you're unable to log on or forget, it will still be there waiting. You might get tack, horse xp, player xp, or even some Jorvik Shillings or treats for your horse. 

And keep an eye out for Sunshine Joytree. She's set out some telescopes and a book about Jorvik's Zodiac signs.

The Jorvik Friesians

I don't have my own yet, and I haven't seen them in-game yet, so I'll add to my thoughts in another post. However, I do know as of their release a lot of people have complaints, mostly on animations, and more specifically the mane and tail. I will have a while before I get my own Gen 3 Friesian, but for now I'm going to stick to my Friesian Sport for dressage until I get the rest of the horses I want. The Jorvik Friesian is on my list for sure, but I'm focusing on getting a Jorvik Wild after I get Heidrun, and a few others on my list. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas! I will post the next issue on Saturday or Sunday.
