There be dragons! needchocolatenow (#41056) let them out!
And where there are dragons, there is a very shiny trail of treasure...
A wonderful world of wings and fire awaits you in Dragon's Canyon, a beautiful realm dappled with jewels--and, of course, DRAGONS!
Before you run off to the Canyon, I have a few important nuggets of wisdom to bestow upon you.
Currency
The currency in this realm is gems; they come in emerald, sapphire, ruby, and magicked (white) varieties, and each has a different point value.
Emerald = 1 point. Sapphire = 5 points. Ruby = 10 points. Magicked = 20 points.
In a new and wondrous twist of events, there is no seasonal shop--but your gems will still come in handy.
Quests
Questing in Dragon's Canyon is quite special. For every 3 quests you complete, you will have the opportunity to appease a rather grumpy dragon in an attempt to steal a coveted egg from him. How will you snatch an egg out from under his gaze? By tossing gems at him, of course!
So, after you finish your first three quests, you will be invited to the Dragon's Lair. Then, you must throw a certain number of gems at him to be rewarded with eggs. I'll give you a hint: the first time, he wants 60 gem points. You don't have to give him 60 all at once; if you give him 10 and then come back with 50 more, that will work as well. He will then reward you with colorful eggs.
After you complete 3 more quests, you will be able to throw more gems at the dragon for more eggs. This time, he'll want 120. Again, after another 3 quests, you can snag another egg, but it will cost you 240. If you complete 3 more quests, you will have another egg opportunity, but it will cost you 480.
Free Eggs
What the Grumpy Dragon Tavi doesn't want you to know is that he has a soft side.
Once an hour, you are able to collect a free egg from the nest!
Eggsurprises!
You might be wondering what you're going to do with a hoard of eggs that would rival any dragon's nest.
Since there is no seasonal shop for this event, you probably guessed that the eggs have more value than just looking pretty--and they do! Each egg is openable, and will yield a random prize. I won't tell you exactly what you can find in each egg, but the prizes range from food, clothes and collectables to fauna and some even cooler eggs. *wink*
P.S., not all of the prize items are activated yet. They have a note in their description that states this, but their magic will be revealed soon! Keep an eye out. :3
But Eri! If I can just get free eggs, why should I bother getting gems and questing?
Because we're going to have a high score table, and some pretty cool prizes for those of you that prove you are a top quester. More on that to come!
Adventure Items
You'll find a few helpful items strewn about the canyon, but I wanted to bring special attention to one in particular: Dragon Dung. Use this on another user to throw a random amount of gems at them to assist them with their questing endeavors!
What else will you encounter on your journey?
Why, the stars of the show of course--the Dragons!
Note: We have more pets to add, so hang tight and keep an eye out for an announcement! (Descriptions are also still being added to some of the colorations.)
Enjoy the canyon!
(And let us know if anything is behaving wonky; this is a new feature for us, so we'll be ready to make any necessary tweaks. Thanks. :3)

Finished my quests. It would be really nice to know if there is any other use for gems or if I am done with the event now???

@Saar: "why should I bother getting gems and questing?

So, there's a use to them if you hoard a lot of them.

Eri & Dew (#17) Seems to be an issue with poaching, it's not kicking in/using the tote right away. I was trying to see how the tote works and was able to get quite a few extra high levels without issue until it kicked in just now @.x
Also seconding..thirding...uhhh also saying for 4th egg think it took 4 quests.

There's only 4 possibilies to get eggs from the grumpy ragon after quests.

Okirin (#40141) I guess if the first quest isnt counted, but 3/15=5 total.
I'm hoping we can go back, with the rng it seems a lot of the items aren't actually getting out there.

I really love the new approach to this event, but I think this has been a little hectic. XD I, too, thought that we would get 5 chances at bribing the grumpy dragon, but I guess that was not correct. Was there any other use for the gems? I've gotten all four of my chances and have almost THREE THOUSAND of them left. I'm really hoping they're not going to be waste and do nothing further. I haven't even managed to collect all the pets from the area yet, so I'll get even more before this event is over. I also have about a hundred pieces of Dragon Dung that I could "swap" with people, meaning even more gems.... yeah, I'm really hoping there will be another use for them. By the way, I'm really loving the idea with the eggs. =) Kinda a little scared to open them since people are reporting having problems with them and there does not appear to be any written response from the staff, but meh. I guess I'll take my chances. Also, thank you very much for adding in all those pet descriptions! Makes the trivia questions so much easier. ^.^

Okirin (#40141) I know it says that, but I KNOW I won't be on any highscore table since I don't have enough time. I want to know if there is some other use for them.

we need more Quests, lol...or a way to "buy" eggs from the Dragon with our gems.

Ok, I opened six eggs and got the exactly same thing each time. Now I'm afraid to open the others since I want a chance to get someof the other things. Is that a glitch, or something?
