Heart Breaker's Fragments and Plushies have been packed away, and shopkeepers throughout Terrafrost are brushing glitter and sand off of their wares. After weeks of wholehearted competition, Amourok has come to an end! After much tallying, grumbling, and cheering, Halwn and Amaryllis are ready to announce the winning team in the event room.
It looks like crafty Pets on both teams were hard at work, because every Terrafrostian who participated will receive a trophy! Which one (and how many) depends on your level of participation and whether your team won or not. Your respective team lead is handing them out, so make sure to go pick up your trophy!
Halwn and Amaryllis would also like to reward the five Terrafrostians who earned the most points with a Golden Competitor Stamp! Congratulations to:
The Amourok Store has been helping clean up after all the festive chaos, and in doing so has expanded its inventory with a variety of Pirate and Fairy themed goodies. The amount of points you've earned are displayed at the top of the page -- both team leads hope something catches your fancy, and thank you for taking part in this year's Clash of Colours!
If Full Hearts have been collecting dust in your storage bin, or overflowing your gallery then you are in luck because you can now freeze all Full Hearts in the Ice Box to receive their frozen counterparts! Of course, some of you may have used up all your hearts in a heated competition, but do not panic -- we've got you covered! The Amourok Store is now selling all Full Hearts. You can find each heart under the year their team competed! In the case of the Pure and Corrupted hearts, these can be found in the 2018 category, the last year they competed.

I hope you've gotten your fill of another (bitter)sweet Amourok, as all Amourok festivities end tonight, February 24th, at 23:59:59 Icepets Time. Heart Breaker will tuck its remaining jars away, and all Amourok items currently stocking in the I.C.E and NPC shops will retire for the year.
To help bring the Clash of Colours to a heart pounding finish, the Full Hearts of both teams are now stocking more frequently in all NPC shops (except for the Snow Jar Igloo and Port Rakor)!
"I grow weary of entertaining these glittery mothballs," says Halwn the Pirate Xephyr. "The open sea calls, but I have no intention of setting sail with these Fairies thinking they're the sharpest sword on deck! I just know you Pirates give it your all today."
"Oh, boo! Halwn is so eager to ruin the fun," says Amaryllis the Fairy Jakrit. "But I wouldn't mind knocking those Pirates down a peg or two! Keep going -- I know you Fairies will finish up strong!"
Ah, there's nothing quite like the smell of fresh parch-mesan and cheese! This feta odd assortment has made itself at home this Amourok season, especially now that it brie time to vote on the Cheesiest Love Poem!
Too much? Too much.
Book Quests are doubled February 24th, 00:00:00 to February 26th, 23:59:59! This means 20 quests will be available each day instead of the usual 10, and you will receive extra prizes for each completed quest. I'm sure Penelope would agree this is a much cosier way to get into the Amourok spirit!
Last, but certainly not least, don't forget it's almost time for...

As Amourok nears its end, it's time for each team's final rally! The scores of both teams are hidden, and both Full Hearts will appear more often in all NPC shops, excluding Port Rakor and the Snow Jar Igloo.
In addition, the Token Booth, Quest Store, and Raffle Store are now stocking Empty Heart Fragments until Amourok ends, February 24th at 23:59:59 Icepets Time.
Feeling all sappy from the Amourok season? Don't forget to enter the Cheesy Love Poem Contest! Grab your quills and muses and purple prose -- and remember to have your entry uploaded and sent to Nexinhah by February 22nd, 23:59:59 IcePets time.
We have an adorably squishy User-funded items Please give a (quiet) hello to the sleepy Mochi Space Krittle Plush, funded by @joy3111! Thank you for helping bring this item to Terrafrost. Many Terrafrostians will snuggle this comfortably while they sleep.
Get one for your household from the Plushie Palace, or received as a reward from the Book Quest. A week from now, the Plushie Quest will begin asking for it as well.

Look -- there's a pirate ship on the horizon! And who's that hanging from the mast? Ah, it's none other than the new Pirate Dabu! This Pet is ready to call Terrafrost its new home, so let's be sure to give it a warm welcome.
This adventurous Pet is ready to set sail with you! So if you'd like one of your own, you'll need a Pirate Dabu Morphing Potion. Like every other Pirate Morphing Potion, you can always find it at the Token Booth. Or if you've spent all your Tokens, you can also purchase it from the I.C.E Shop until the end of the month. It'll cost you 500 IceCash (450 for Gold Accounts.)
And through the mist and chaos of Amourok, the Fairy Trido appears! This graceful Trido can't wait to make themselves at home and show you their favorite basking spots.
The Fairy Trido Morphing Potion will be stocking in the Snow Jar Igloo. It will also be available in the I.C.E Shop until the end of the month for 500 IceCash (or 450 for Gold Accounts).
Heart Breaker will now begin a new game every fifteen minutes -- more Plushies, more Hearts, and more jars to smash. Whoo!
(Also, don't forget all things Amourok will wrap up February 24th, 23:59:59 IcePets Time.)

We'd like to introduce four new User-funded Items! First up is the lovable Woodland Krittle Plushie, funded by @Mongolou. You can find it at the Plushie Palace or receive it as a reward from the Book Quest. A week from now, the Plushie Quest will begin asking for it as well.
Up next are the super-yummy Space Ducky Toast and Rainbow Ducky Toast, funded by @tarshaan. They'll be stocking at the Glacial Grocer and rewarded by the Candy Quest. And a week from now, the Space Quest will be looking for them.
Next, we'd like to introduce the sparkling Onion Ice Cube, funded by @Travis. This Ice Cube will be stocking in Frozen Collective's Emporium, so keep your eyes peeled!
Last but not least is the adorable Bubbles, funded by @titaniumfire. If you want to add this Companion to your collection, it can be found at Jacobi's Companion Reserve!
Attention bookworms! The Book Quest is due for another Questing weekend. That means from today until February 12th, 23:59:59 IcePets Time, the opportunities and rewards for this Quest will be doubled. Be sure to take this opportunity to help Penelope restock her library.

It looks like this Amourok season is starting off with a bang (fortunately unrelated to any volcanoes)! Less fortunately, it's because the recently settled Pirate and Fairy Pets of the Misty Isles have found themselves in a kerfuffle...
"These overgrown tufts of glitter think they're something sharp, covering the Isles we worked so hard to map in this obnoxious mist. The hot springs are almost too blinding to use," says Halwn the Pirate Xephyr. "But it's no matter -- a Pirate is more clever than a Fairy. We can sail in any weather, magical or not."
"Oh, please. We're the only reason any map of the Isles is coherent. These clumps of salty seaweed think they're so smart, using our mist as cover to dig up treasure!" says Amaryllis the Fairy Jakrit. "Not that it matters -- we Fairies are more than capable of outwitting some Pirates. Just wait until a treasure chest is filled with marbles!"
It looks like this year's Amourok will involve another Clash of Colours! Make sure to head on over to the signup page to see which team takes a shine to you before you start hunting for Empty Heart Fragments!
These Fragments can be found stocking in NPC shops (except for the Snow Jar Igloo and Port Rakor), as well as from Heart Breaker and quest rewards. There is also a small chance of finding a Full Heart instead! Speaking of...
Once four different Fragments have been collected, your may bring them to your team leader to have them transformed into a Full Glimmering Heart or a Full Nautical Heart. More Full Hearts means more points for your team!

What rocks? Amourok! The season is upon us, which means it's time for Heart Breaker!
To take part, just click a heart once every 30 seconds for a chance to win a prize. The game will end when an Amourok Plush is found, with a new game will begin every thirty minutes -- and if you're eager to break some hearts, you may purchase a UHD from the I.C.E Shop to reduce the time between clicks to 15 seconds. (You will also get to select an additional perk -- the game timer reduction is included no matter what you choose!)
For the first half of the event, the consolation prizes are a familiar array of scented candles. They'll be switched out for some new prizes on February 17th, so make sure to grab enough to keep your house smelling great.
Heart Breaker will run until February 24th, 23:59:59 IcePets Time.
It wouldn't be Amourok without the classics! NPC Shopkeepers across Terrafrost are stocking both the Love Letter and Evil Letter (except for the Snow Jar Igloo and Port Rakor).
In addition, four Amourok Items are returning to the I.C.E Shop! The Single Red Rose, Sweetheart Sugar Cookie, Sir Heart's Day Bath Set, and Evil Sweetheart Card are now available for 500 IceCash each (or 450 for Gold Users).
All NPC and I.C.E Shop items will be available until February 24th, 23:59:59 IcePets Time. Show the love (or lack thereof) while you can!

Not just one, but two brand new Pets are joining us in Terrafrost today! Be sure to give these guys a warm welcome, because they're here to stay.
First up is the Tech Ori, funded by @titaniumfire! It's the perfect companion for technology enthusiasts -- or alternatively, anyone who needs a tech-savvy Pet to help them navigate this ever-changing world.
Up next is the Dreamworld Ridix, funded by @joy3111! This Pet is super chill and always in the mood to cuddle with you. Don't be surprised if the Dreamworld Ridix curls up on your lap and takes a long nap!
You can find both the Tech Ori Morphing Potion and the Dreamworld Ridix Morphing Potion at the I.C.E Shop until the end of the month. They'll be selling for 500 IceCash (450 for Gold Accounts.) You can also find them restocking at the Snow Jar Igloo, so keep an eye out!
Additionally, residents of the Halipar Jungles have reported a strange, glimmering fog persisting throughout the week, as well as an increasing number of ships looming off their coasts. They seem to be heading towards the Misty Isles, but that doesn't explain why the fog hasn't dissipated so far inland...
Speaking of the Misty Isles, its signature mist has turned mysteriously thick and... sparkly, enveloping the land and making it dangerous for ships unfamiliar with the harbour to dock. While some residents have been eyeing the volcano nervously, Pirates have taken the opportunity to delve for treasure within Fairy portions of the isle.
Ah well, it's probably just temporary -- besides, it's time to grab your sweets and ribbons and groan-inducing puns, because Amourok is almost upon us! Don't get lost in the fog, as there will be more Amourok news soon.

Low on IceCash? Don't fret -- we have something for you as well! Consider stopping by the Toy Trunk for the Basics Trading Card! It'll also be rewarded by the Plushie Quest, and a week from now, the Space Quest will begin requesting it. We're also rolling out the new After the Igloo! You can find it at the Ralph's Page Turners. You can get it as a reward from the Weapons Quest, and a week from now, the Book Quest will be asking for it.
