[quote][i]"Reverend Timothy, having secured the attention of an attractive woman prepared to listen to his sermons, is now elucidating his previous *and* his next intended Christmas sermon. Coquille fastens her smile more charmingly on her face. Her eyes travel the room from end to end. There is no escape.”[/i][/quote] There is never any escape from Christmas. So you might as well embrace this year’s edition of the [i]BOOK OF HOURS[/i] advent calendar!

You can redeem each item every day either in [i]BOOK OF HOURS[/i] or in the real world. The calendar runs from 1st - 25th December. [h1]What’s *in* the advent calendar?[/h1] A mix of in-game items and little real-world treats. We’ll announce what’s behind every day's door at noon on our social channels ([url=https://x.com/weatherfactory]Twitter[/url], [url=https://www.facebook.com/BOOKOFHOURSGAME/]Facebook[/url], [url=https://www.instagram.com/weatherfactory/]Instagram[/url]), and update [url=https://weatherfactory.biz/the-christmas-market-or-the-advent-calendar-2024/]this blog post[/url] with a megalist of everything released so far. [h1]How do I get it?[/h1] Make sure you have the latest version (2024.12.m.3). You’ll see Christmas decorations appear throughout Hush House when in-game winter rolls around, and will be able to redeem any in-game gifts from Reverend Timothy’s Christmas tree next to his Rectory in Brancrug Village. [i]Please note: [b]you can’t get advent calendar gifts during spring, summer or autumn.[/b] You have to wait for in-game winter to appear (or start in winter) to receive any in-game items. When playing at x6 speed, the longest you’ll have to wait is a maximum of ~6 minutes.[/i] [h1]What if I miss a day?[/h1] Any in-game items will remain available on Reverend Timothy’s Christmas tree until midnight on New Year’s Eve. The advent calendar ‘ends’ on Christmas Day, but you have an extra week to collect any missed items after then! Real-world gifts are either only usable on that day, or will be available in perpetuity. Check the megalist of advent gifts below to see what they are (or were). [h1]What if I *hate* it?[/h1] You can turn off any and all seasonal art in the Settings menu.
