Standing over the desolate [[Glacier]] | Standing over the desolate [[Glacier|Glaciers]], the '''Aurora Palace''' is a striking and beautiful sight for adventurers in the Twilight Forest, with its walls constantly shifting in a variety of colours reaching into the sky. Beauty is only skin deep sadly, as there are dangers within who will not hesitate to defend their magical home. | ||

As alluded to already, the most obvious and distinctive feature of the palace is what forms it. [[Aurora Block]] | As alluded to already, the most obvious and distinctive feature of the palace is what forms it. [[Aurora Block|Aurora Blocks]] make up the walls of the tower, giving the structure an ethereal appearance as the colours move and pulse in random patterns over the surface. Inside, supporting columns built from [[Aurora Pillar|Aurora Pillars]] can be seen, standing distinct from the walls with their bright, ice-like appearance, though it does not change colour. The floors and stairs are built from birch slabs. | ||
The overall structure of the palace consists of multiple tall towers, interconnected by small doorways at varying levels within the chambers. While some rooms can be reached by simply walking up, others are built so that jumping, mining and block placement are required to reach further up. Despite the softly pulsing walls, it can be difficult to get one's bearings while exploring the palace - adventurers are strongly recommended to bring light sources to illuminate the interior, as well as some way to mark their progress as the utter lack of distinguishing features can make it very easy to get lost. | The overall structure of the palace consists of multiple tall towers, interconnected by small doorways at varying levels within the chambers.

Icy enemies patrol the dim halls and walkways. Most common are Ice Cores, animated by frost magic and coming in two varieties - [[Stable Ice Core]] | Icy enemies patrol the dim halls and walkways. Most common are Ice Cores, animated by frost magic and coming in two varieties - [[Stable Ice Core|Stable Ice Cores]] have a distinctive halo of icy spikes and launch magical snowballs at intruders - while one is merely an annoyance, they can prove to be a deadly threat in numbers, especially as the snowballs pack enough punch to knock an unwary explorer off the narrow platforms in the palace. [[Unstable Ice Core|Unstable Ice Cores]] do not hold back from the fray, but instead charge in close, inflicting damage with their sharp spikes. They present an additional danger by violently exploding upon death, destroying some blocks but transforming others with the sudden release of the magical energy that bound them. Also found are [[Snow Guardian|Snow Guardians]], magical animus clad in armour formed of materials found elsewhere in the Twilight Forest. | ||

Chests are usually to be found hidden amongst the pillars in the palace. Some of these chests contain food and arrows, useful for the travels ahead, but others contain valuable loot such as [[Ironwood Ingot]] | Chests are usually to be found hidden amongst the pillars in the palace. Some of these chests contain food and arrows, useful for the travels ahead, but others contain valuable loot such as [[Ironwood Ingot|Ironwood Ingots]], [[Steeleaf]] and [[Charm of Keeping|Charms of Keeping]]. Explorers have reported that the most valuable treasures are often found in the dead-end chambers, with unique enchanted weapons such as the fragile but deadly [[Glass Sword]]. | ||

Defeating the Snow Queen ends the Snow Forest part of the Twilight Forest journey. In order to explore the [[Twilight Highlands]], adventurers will also need to find and kill the [[Hydra]] and [[Ur-Ghast]] as well. | Defeating the Snow Queen ends the Snow Forest part of the Twilight Forest journey.
