First mysterious footprints, giant claw marks… and now this, something magical seems to be happening at Almond Valley… ✨

Something strange has been spotted in the woods…

Our team recently discovered some rather unusual claw marks and footprints deep within Almond Valley. 👀

Could a dragon have paid us a visit? Or is there another mythical creature lurking among the trees?

You might just uncover the answer at our upcoming Festival of Myths & Legends — a magical adventure filled with dragons, legends and mythical tales. 🐉✨
