Terror struck one of Kiel Hyre's cargo ships this morning, when on the seas near Turtle Island, the crew was attacked by the Turtle General and his army. The invading reptiles threw everyone overboard and hijacked the ship, stealing over 400 Million zeny worth of ores and stones. Fortunately, everyone carried butterfly wings, and were able to return to Alberta safely.

Victims claim the Turtle General asked for forgiveness when attacking, making the incident even more confusing. If the General only attacks those who interrupt the peace of Turtle Island, why was he going out of his way to steal a cargo ship full of ores and stones?

Due to this incident, the authorities warn those in port towns to be careful, in case the turtles attack again.

(On Friday, August 7th at 8:30 PM server time, Turtle General will attack a port town. Be prepared to fight and find out his reasons for attacking the ship and town!)

The heroes met yesterday at 8PM in Niflheim. Lord Matthew stood at the town square, ready to answer questions regarding the accusations of the Turtle General. Several dark siders offered their alibi, but it seemed not everyone believed the Crimson Lord was innocent.

Determined to prove his innocence, Lord Matthew granted the heroes access to all of the properties he owned in Niflheim. However, in less than one minute, the high priestess Sheena Archer found various turtle eggs in the tool dealer building. When confronted with the possibility of being taken to prison, the Lord Knight attempted to flee. The creator Maya hurled acid bombs at Matthew, forcing him to retaliate, but with the help of Sacerdos Signat and Sheena Archer, they managed subdued the man.

Now in prison and awaiting a preliminary hearing, Lord Matthew refuses to talk to anyone. Several people, not just the ones from the dark allegiance, claim the man is being framed, but it is now all up to the courts of the Kingdom of Rune-Midgard to decide on the Crimson Lord's future.

Meanwhile, the rest of the Turtle Generals eggs are still missing. The Rune-Midgard Government has offered a reward for whoever finds the eggs to encourage people to help out.

(To Recap: There are 3 different groups of eggs hidden in 3 different maps. All of these must be found before Wednesday August 19th, or they will perish and disrupt the life cycle of the Turtle Kingdom. The use of science and logic is recommended to successfully find them, e.g. the eggs won't be at Thor's Volcano or Ice Dungeon.

For every group of eggs the player finds, he or she will receive 1 Old Card Album and 3 Bloody Branches. Screenshots of the eggs must be posted on this thread.)
