You'll Never Believe Which Royal Survives This Week!

Shadows of War: ShadowFlame Finale, Chapter II

Fear is spreading... and so is the ShadowFlame corruption. Malgor has stolen the Queen of Monsters' heart. Why? No one knows. Now the Mana Core itself -- or an entity within it -- has retaliated. You're losing control, and even your allies aren't safe from the Shadows' infection. This weekend, log in and battle alongside Empress Gravelyn of the ShadowScythe to prevent Malgor from escaping into the Timestream as we continue the Shadows of War Saga Finale!

Continue your adventure when you /join timekeep! See the full release lineup here: AdventureQuest Worlds calendar.

Magical Reward Gear

The Mana Core contains the most pure magic available. Any mage drawing from the Core would be flooded with pure magic, overcome in a deluge of power which would burn through their physical, mental, and magical veins. It MUST be guarded to protect our world... and YOU are just the Hero to do it. 

Battle monsters in /timekeep for new drops, then talk to Empress Gravelyn after completing the story quests to unlock her merge shop with even more gear.

Boss Drops:

• Mystical Acolyte armor
• Mystical Acolyte’s Hood, Scarf, + Horns helms
• Mystical Acolyte’s Swords Cape + Wings
• Mystical Acolyte’s Mana Blade (single + dual wield)

Merge Shop:

• 3 Mana Guardian helms
• 1 Mana Guardian cape

And if you haven't finished battling through Chapter I, don't miss out on the shadowy rewards waiting for you in the /ruinedcrown map!
