My guess is it's Bingo related or is not an event at all as we have springfest and the anniversary event coming up so soon. Rumor I heard was that it's female dwarves being added to the store, but this seems super unlikely given that they would want to put that out for feedback first like they did with the dwarf/man/elf revamps.

**Annaveil** · Mar 14 2018, 09:27 AM

This is exciting!

It makes me think it'll be the secret door into Erebor, but anything could be a secret.

If we find that blonde bowl cut with a stupid grin waiting for us outside though I'm gonna laugh and cry in equal measure.

Actually if you visit the Suggestions Forum you'll see how there has been feedback on this issue nearly non-stop since Beta.
Personally I hope so for I have two available slots just for female dwarves and enough money in my Steam Wallet to buy inventory slots, travel cd reducers, etc. to bring them up to 'usable' for me.

**Selfserving_Greed** · Mar 14 2018, 12:06 PM

Maybe there's something akin to class balance coming?

But who am I kidding...

**miriadel** · Mar 14 2018, 01:16 PM

they release the fabled 64 bit client. Lol I wish...

**Knight.** · Mar 14 2018, 04:01 PM

so dailies opened up:

and with them a new deed called "The Lay of Rust and Rhyme: The First Verse"

Today is 14 March and patch notes initially mentioned a special reward becoming available on March 21st.
This could be it or there could yet be something more in store for us. Also "The First Verse" implies there could be also be a second verse...

**Aly** · Mar 17 2018, 07:00 PM

I'm hoping it opens the quest "The key and the keyhole", rewarding the new goat !

The quest that started that deed was called something like "ballad of frost and whatever" and it was about searching for the weeping warrior and the frost dragon stuff. as we find out, he drags power from dead dragons... and I guess, we'll follow his path in this ballad.

**Tirian-Hammerfist** · Mar 21 2018, 01:58 AM

Regarding this special event, two questions:

- Is it going to only happen today (as in, will whatever happens remain in the game after first being made accessible today, or will it disappear after today)?
- Will it be accessible by all, or do you need to have finished the current area to access it?

It would be useful if this could be confirmed so that we know what sort of thing we are looking for today!

**valkrye** · Mar 21 2018, 02:12 AM

To all of the people speculating about the 21st... if you open up your Mount Collections you will see a new Goat for the Erebor Royal Guard which says that it is rewarded in a quest. The quest is not in the game yet so that is probably coming on the 21st.

Just my thoughts.

Secret Stone Treasure Hunt

King Thorin III has asked you to try to locate an ancient relic known as the Secret Stone.
But what dangers did the poem warn about? Can you solve this mystery on your own?
This difficult treasure hunt will require community teamwork and resources outside of the game itself.

Good luck!

But the keyhole cannot be found until Durin's day - which be at the end of Autumn.

**Gertes** · Mar 21 2018, 05:38 AM

My kinnys got a quest today, i got nothing.
I hope i will get it later this day.

**ChromiteSwiftpaw** · Mar 21 2018, 05:44 AM

King Thorin has a new quest that sends you to Lake-town to meet the new master.

Doesn't have one for me, weird.

**Yolli** · Mar 21 2018, 05:56 AM

The first quest "The Secret Stone" (for 115 lvl) I got automatically when I was in Erebor.

**ChromiteSwiftpaw** · Mar 21 2018, 05:56 AM

It was just the next step of the episodic content. Thought that came on Thursdays? Guess not.

Really? Interesting. Nothing for me.

Go on the 2nd floor above the keg-quest giver and you'll probably get it.

Intersting. Hadn't seen that.

"Resources outside of the game itself" : like real-life money some are expected to spend to Valar some toons, as it sounds like a 115-only event?
