Dragon Tales 11/14/23: Arctic Dawn

(Mods, can you put a sticky on this thread? Thanks a bunch!)

Hello Neighbors,

Here are the simplified directions to complete the new Arctic Dawn Tales event, the first for the shine month of November. Not only are the chapters and acts listed, I also put in the supplies needed and how many times the Chillshine Dragon has to be sent on missions. I hope it helps all of you to get the Afterglow Dragon. With no further ado, here's the chapters and I divided them up by levels.

Note: You can level up the Chillshine, Keogram and Highlight Dragons to their required levels early and they will count. For most players Chillshine needs to be at level 14, Keogram to level 12 and Highlight to level 6.
***If you are below level 80, then look at your level listing to see required levels for your dragons.***

Note: You can breed Highlight Dragon early (Breed green and white) and it will count when asked in Chapter 6.

Note: For anyone who have difficulty breeding the common dragon for Dragon Tales events, you can skip the acts where that dragon is required for a total of 112 Gold.

Note: Of course it's too early for me to breed the dragon and I may just breed it to show all of you what the egg looks like as I'm not interested in this Dragon Tales at all. I will not participate in this one.

Note: Finally bred the Highlight Dragon after a parade of Cadmium, Elder, Lorekeeper, Stone, Aplomb and Fuzzy fails. Used Mire (white, green) and Cadmium (green, white) and got Highlight after 3 tries with the pairing.

Note: The Highlight Dragon egg to look for is below:

Attachment 71931

Note: Isn't it just sweet of Storm8 to name the markers (Northern Lights) to get the monthly dragon after Yours Truly, lol.


Note: Take a look at your Dragon Tales directions split by level. If you have any problems with missing markers, etc, please contact Storm8 Support through this link. https://support.storm8.com/hc/en-us. They're available Monday - Friday 10am-6pm PDT (Pacific Daylight Time)

Highlight Dragon finally bred. There should be an alternate way to getting these "common" dragons or get rid of the requirement altogether. I say return the Dragon Tales back to where Fire, Forest, Water and Air can be sent on missions to get parts to create the Tales dragons.

What do you mean by 3rd decoration?
