The annual Festival of Hearts returns to Free Realms tomorrow! February 7 through March 8 players can enjoy an event centering around the premise of love and friendship. The town of Merry Vale will be transformed into a magical place infused with the power of love.

An eleven part quest series is the center of this event, telling the story of two lovers who were seperated, one becoming jaded in time, the other waiting the return of her true love.  Featuring this one-of-a-kind pixie love story, the Festival of Hearts is a time of love, joy and friendship. Players will be treated to Valentine's Day-themed environments and invited to participate in quests to earn special Valentine's Day items, including heart blocks and petals from the Heart Flower.

Enjoy the Festival of Hearts and we hope to see you soon in Free Realms!
