| Harvest Moon fans have long been asking for more and better festivals and
| events, ever since the gems that were Harvest Moon 64 and Harvest Moon:
| Back to Nature. Animal Parade, unfortunately, has fewer festivals than even
| Tree of Tranquility. But fortunately, the festivals themselves are far
| better, and there are far more events.
|
| Festivals and events are broken up (by me) into four categories: Romantic
| Festivals, Social Festivals, Family Festivals and Events:
| - Romantic Festivals allow you to take one of the eligible bachelors or
| bachelorettes on a date to do something special. In order to have a
| date for these festivals, you have to talk to the person on the day
| before the festival, and they must have at least three hearts in their
| heart level. The dates all happen at night.
| - Social Festivals are much bigger. In Animal Parade, every social
| festival has multiple shop booths where you can buy goods and multiple
| contests you can enter. There may be only four of these festivals, but
| they're all huge events. Social Festivals also includes Theodore's
| monthly circus, which happens on the 22nd of every month.
| - Family Festivals are small family events. Unlike the other two, the
| dates of these events are custom-defined in your game. These are
| birthdays and anniversaries, and are celebrated by small gatherings in
| your own house.
| - Events are plot sequences, series of dialog and other interesting
| little scenes that are triggered by your friendship with different
| villagers or presence at certain places and at certain times. There are
| lots of events in Animal Parade, and I'm not going to list them all in
| this section: I'm only going to list the ones where it might not be
| clear what you need to do.

| Flower Festival \
| \
| Date : Spring 14
| Location : Celesta Church Area
| Arrive By : 6:00PM
| Ends At : 10:00PM
|
| The Flower Festival is the Spring romantic festival. First of all, in order
| to take a date to the Flower Festival, you must talk to your chosen date on
| the day before (that is, Spring 13) the festival. If they have more than 3
| hearts, they'll offer to be your date to the festival. If you accept, no
| one else will offer to go with you. If you deny, they'll ask again if you
| talk to them again unless you've accepted someone else's offer. They won't
| lose any affection if you turn them down, so don't worry about accidentally
| talking to someone you don't want to take first.
|
| Then, on Spring 14, show up in the Celesta Church area before 6:00PM and
| hang out until the clock hits 6:00. You might be able to arrive as late as
| 7:00PM, but to be safe, go ahead and get there early. The scene will
| automatically trigger by 7:00PM. If you're in the right place and it
| doesn't trigger, run around a bit.
|
| There's nothing to do during the festival but watch the scene. Then, the
| event will end, and you'll be in an empty Celesta Church area at 10:00PM.
|
| If you don't show up in time, your date will be upset and lose some
| affection points.

| Firefly Festival \
| \
| Date : Summer 7
| Location : At the beach, near the river in Flute Fields
| Arrive By : 6:00PM
| Ends At : 10:00PM
|
| The Firefly Festival is the Summer romantic festival. First of all, in
| order to take a date to the Firefly Festival, you must talk to your chosen
| date on the day before (that is, Summer 6) the festival. If they have more
| than 3 hearts, they'll offer to be your date to the festival. If you
| accept, no one else will offer to go with you. If you deny, they'll ask
| again if you talk to them again unless you've accepted someone else's
| offer. They won't lose any affection if you turn them down, so don't worry
| about accidentally talking to someone you don't want to take first.
|
| Then, on Summer 7, show up at the beach near the river (you'll see the
| festival decorations) before 6:00PM and hang out until the clock hits 6:00.
| You might be able to arrive as late as 7:00PM, but to be safe, go ahead and
| get there early. The scene will automatically trigger by 7:00PM. If you're
| in the right place and it doesn't trigger, run around a bit.
|
| There's nothing to do during the festival but watch the scene. Then, the
| event will end, and you'll be on the now-empty beach at 10:00PM.
|
| If you don't show up in time, your date will be upset and lose some
| affection points.

| Moon Festival \
| \
| Date : Fall 14
| Location : On the hill in Flute Fields
| Arrive By : 6:00PM
| Ends At : 10:00PM
|
| The Moon Festival is the Fall romantic festival. First of all, in order to
| take a date to the Moon Festival, you must talk to your chosen date on the
| day before (that is, Fall 13) the festival. If they have more than 3
| hearts, they'll offer to be your date to the festival. If you accept, no
| one else will offer to go with you. If you deny, they'll ask again if you
| talk to them again unless you've accepted someone else's offer. They won't
| lose any affection if you turn them down, so don't worry about accidentally
| talking to someone you don't want to take first.
|
| Then, on Fall 14, show up on Moon Hill in Flute Fields (middle of the area,
| behind the fork that leads to Marimba Farm and Horn Ranch -- same location
| as the Starry Night Festival) before 6:00PM and hang out until the clock
| hits 6:00. You might be able to arrive as late as 7:00PM, but to be safe,
| go ahead and get there early. The scene will automatically trigger by
| 7:00PM. If you're in the right place and it doesn't trigger, run around a
| bit.
|
| There's nothing to do during the festival but watch the scene. Then, the
| event will end, and you'll be back at the fork at 10:00PM.
|
| If you don't show up in time, your date will be upset and lose some
| affection points.

| Starry Night Festival \
| \
| Date : Winter 11
| Location : On the hill in Flute Fields
| Arrive By : 6:00PM
| Ends At : 10:00PM
|
| The Starry Night Festival is the Winter romantic festival. First of all, in
| order to take a date to the Starry Night Festival, you must talk to your
| chosen date on the day before (that is, Winter 10) the festival. If they
| have more than 3 hearts, they'll offer to be your date to the festival. If
| you accept, no one else will offer to go with you. If you deny, they'll ask
| again if you talk to them again unless you've accepted someone else's
| offer. They won't lose any affection if you turn them down, so don't worry
| about accidentally talking to someone you don't want to take first.
|
| Then, on Winter 11, show up on Moon Hill in Flute Fields (middle of the
| area, behind the fork that leads to Marimba Farm and Horn Ranch -- same
| location as the Moon Viewing Festival) before 6:00PM and hang out until the
| clock hits 6:00. You might be able to arrive as late as 7:00PM, but to be
| safe, go ahead and get there early. The scene will automatically trigger by
| 7:00PM. If you're in the right place and it doesn't trigger, run around a
| bit.
|
| Unlike the other festivals, this festival has a bit of a mini-game. You'll
| be prompted over and over with a set of 5 "wishes". If you select the same
| wish every time, you'll get a reward. The wish dialog only stays visible
| for a few seconds, so you'll have to act fast. Then, the event will end,
| and you'll be back at the fork at 10:00PM.
|
| If you don't show up in time, your date will be upset and lose some
| affection points.

| Animal Festival \
| \
| Date : Spring 28
| Location : Horn Ranch
| Arrive After : 10:00AM
| Ends At : 6:00PM
| Description : The Spring social festival is the Animal Festival, and takes
| : place at Horn Ranch. Like the title suggests, the Animal
| : Festival is a celebration of animals of all kinds:
| : livestock, poultry, and even pets.
| :
| : There are three contests at the Animal Festival, as well as
| : several shops selling various animal products.
|
| Contests : Animal Contest: The Animal Contest is for livestock and
| : poultry. Enter the contest by talking to Hamilton at Horn
| : Ranch and selecting Animal Contest. You'll be asked which
| : animal you want to enter, and presented with a dialog sorted
| : by heart level of all your animals. Any livestock animal can
| : be entered, but higher-heart level animals have a much
| : better chance of winning. If you have multiple animals of
| : the same heart level, go for the "biggest" one -- a cow
| : would be better than a horse, which is better than a sheep
| : or goat, which are all better than chickens, ducks and
| : silkworms. If you win, you'll get a heaping helping of bird
| : feed.
| :
| : Pet Contest: The Pet Contest is, you guessed it, for your
| : pets. Well, one of your pets. Trigger it by talking to
| : Hamilton and selecting Pet Contest. With the Animal Whistle
| : you can teach tricks to your pets just by whistling for them
| : once per day. As they do more tricks, the skill of their
| : trick will improve. At the Pet Contest, choose your animal
| : with the best trick, and it will do that trick for the
| : contest.
| :
| : Horse Race: Well, technically you can ride any animal, but
| : the horse or ostrich is the most logical. To trigger
| : practice for the Horse Race, talk to Cain before 9AM -- to
| : actually enter it, talk to Hamilton and choose Race. He'll
| : let you choose what animal to ride. From there, the game
| : follows the same mechanics as the racing mini-game.
| : Note that you can only ride animals -- even horses and
| : ostriches -- that have at least 5 hearts, so odds are you
| : won't be able to participate until your second year unless
| : you befriend your cow really quick. You can also just watch
| : by talking to Cain and selecting Watch. You can even get
| : prizes for correctly predicting the winner! Whether you're
| : racing or picking a winner, the Horse is always the best
| : option.

| Ocean Festival \
| \
| Date : Summer 17
| Location : Harmonica Town beach
| Arrive After : 10:00AM
| Ends At : 10:00PM
|
| Description : The Summer social festival is the Ocean Festival, a
| : celebration of all things sea-related. Aside from two booths
| : stocking primarily sea dishes and items, you'll also find a
| : booth with lots of regular dishes as well.
| :
| : The Ocean Festival has only two contests, but also has a
| : fireworks event to close the day.
|
| Contests : Fishing Contest #1: I'm not entirely sure how this contest
| : works yet. At this contest, you're graded on your fishing
| : prowess thusfar in the game, based on how many fish you've
| : caught and how good they are. I'm not sure the span of time
| : you have to catch contest-eligible fish, though. To enter,
| : talk to Hamilton in the morning. The prizes for this
| : festival are all medicines.
| :
| : Fishing Contest #2: The second fishing contest is a bit more
| : obvious. Talk to Hamilton in the afternoon to trigger it,
| : and he'll tell you a fish that you need to try to catch.
| : Fish in the Harmonica Town ocean to try and catch that fish,
| : and the first person to catch it wins! The prizes for this
| : are fish recipes.
| :
| : Fireworks: The fireworks aren't a contest, but rather just
| : an event. If you're in the area at 7:00PM, the fireworks
| : will start and you'll chill on the beach and watch them with
| : everyone else.

| Harvest Festival \
| \
| Date : Fall 27
| Location : Marimba Farm
| Arrive After : 10:00AM
| Ends At : 6:00PM
|
| Description : The Harvest Festival is the corresponding crop-oriented
| : festival to the Animal Festival. Here you'll celebrate a
| : year of bountiful harvests, fitting for the second-to-last
| : day of Fall.
| :
| : The Harvest Festival has four different contests: one for
| : each type of crop, and one for recipes. To enter all the
| : contests, you'll want to bring something in each category
| : with you in your rucksack.
| :
| : There are also several booths open selling crops and
| : vegetable dishes. Note that Ruth sells many common recipe
| : ingredients like Olive Oil, Flour and Cornmeal -- you won't
| : get to get these again for almost another year, so if
| : there's any recipes you want to make soon you might want to
| : buy some. Note, though, that if you buy these ingredients,
| : your final dish usually won't sell for enough to make it
| : profitable.
|
| Contests : Crop, Flower and Fruit Contests: These three contests all
| : work exactly the same. Talk to Hamilton and he'll ask you
| : for a crop, flower or fruit, depending on which contest you
| : choose. Have them in your rucksack, then hand them over when
| : he asks for them. A crop is anything that grows in a single
| : square on your farm and has a quality rating

| New Year's Eve \
| \
| Date : Winter 28
| Location : Town Hall
| Arrive After : 6:00PM
| Ends At : 12:00AM
|
| Description : The New Year's Eve festival is a celebration of...
| : miscellaneous other stuff that didn't get covered in the
| : other three festivals! There's a hodgepodge of contests
| : covering mining, foraging, and clothing. Be aware that for
| : one of the contests, you'll need to find and refine an Ore
| : or Wonderful before the festival day.
| :
| : Additionally, there are shops at the New Year's Eve festival
| : as well. This is the only place that I know of where you can
| : buy herb seeds, which are great for dyeing yarns. There's
| : also a wide assortment of clothing available here.
|
| Contests : Foraging Contest: This contest is like the first fishing
| : contest from the Ocean Festival. Essentially, all the
| : different forageable goods you've picked up are tallied, and
| : whoever has picked up the most wins. Forageable goods in
| : this case are pretty much anything you can find on the
| : ground outside, like berries, herbs and beach stuff. The
| : prizes here are different quantities of lumber, so this can
| : be a great way to get the wood to build that new home
| : extension or barn expansion.
| :
| : Clothing Contest: The Clothing Contest is a fashion show.
| : You'll be judged on what you're wearing at the time of the
| : contest, so come dressed all fancy-like. I have no idea if
| : the results of this festival are randomly determined or are
| : actually based on what you're wearing, but just in case,
| : come dressed in the most expensive stuff you have -- the
| : game doesn't understand color complements or anything like
| : that.
| :
| : Mining Contest: Like the Crop, Flower, Fruit and Cooking
| : contests from the Harvest Festival, the Mining Contest is a
| : contest to bring the best mine product. As usual, this
| : appears to be solely based on the item's sale value, so just
| : bring the most expensive thing you can find. Gems are better
| : than Metals. This is a great way to get a lot of stone
| : lumber, as that's the prize for winning this contest.

| Date : Spring 22, Summer 22, Fall 22, Winter 22
| Location : Celesta Church area
| Arrive After : 3:00PM
| Ends At : 8:00PM
|
| Description : Theodore's Circus is a monthly festival, although it really
| : has none of the characteristics of other festivals. I've
| : outlined most of the details of it in the Theodore's Circus
| : Event section -- for that, search for [-THEOD-] without the
| : spaces. This section just focuses on the monthly elements of
| : it.
| :
| : The first couple times you come to Theodore's Circus, you'll
| : be focused on completing Theodore's Circus Event. After
| : that, though, there won't be much to do here. Once you're
| : married, you can have your family follow you to the circus
| : and see your kids playing with all the animals.

| / Family Festivals /
| / /
|/_________________________________________________________________________/
|
| In addition to those seasonal festivals, as you get married and start a
| family you'll find a few events that occur on particular dates to celebrate
| birthdays and anniversaries.
|
|\______________ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Your Birthday \
| \
| Before marriage, you probably noticed that people around the island
| mysteriously wished you happy birthday even though you probably can't
| recall ever telling them when your birthday is. They probably looked it up
| on Facebook.
|
| After marriage, though, you'll have a little celebration at your house.
| Just enter your house after 6:00PM and you'll get the scene, which goes
| until around 10:00PM. Other than that, you don't have anything to do.
|
| If you don't return for the event (you don't get home until after 10:00PM),
| you'll miss the event, but your spouse won't really mind.
|
|\______________________ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Your Spouse's Birthday \
| \
| You'll celebrate your spouse's birthday too, but be warned: do NOT give
| your spouse a present early in the day. As soon as you give them a gift,
| the event triggers, and it won't be over until 10:00PM.
|
| You can also trigger the event the same way as your own birthday, just by
| entering your house after 6:00PM. Your spouse will be happier if you
| trigger it with a present, though.
|
| If you don't return for the event (you don't get home until after 10:00PM),
| you'll miss the event, and your spouse will lose a bit of affection.
|
| Note that the Harvest King, Harvest Goddess, Witch and Wizard all have
| unknown birthdays, so this event won't take place.
|
|\________________ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Your Anniversary \
| \
| Like your birthday and your spouse's birthday, the anniversary event is
| triggered just by entering the house on the date of your anniversary after
| 6:00PM. I'm not yet sure if there's a present involved.
|
| If you don't return for the event (you don't get home until after 10:00PM),
| you'll miss the event, and your spouse will lose a bit of affection.
|
| Note that this event won't take place if you married the Harvest King or
| Harvest Goddess.
|
|\______________________ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Your Child's Birthday \
| \
| Like the other family-based festivals, your child's birthday is triggered
| by entering your house after 6:00PM. It won't be over until 10:00PM, so
| don't plan on doing any major chores after entering the house.
|
| Now, there's a funny thing about kids: they want presents! And you'll need
| to legitimately have something in your rucksack to give them, or they'll be
| pretty upset. Now, as you might've noticed, there's no real toy-like items
| in the game, so go with food: cake, pie, chocolate are all good options.
|
| If you don't return for the event (you don't get home until after 10:00PM),
| you'll miss the event, and your spouse will lose a bit of affection.
|
| _________________________________________________________________________
| / /
| / Events /
| / /
|/_________________________________________________________________________/
|
| Note that if you're looking for heart events and other romance-related
| events, you're going to want to check the Dating and Marriage sections by
| searching for [-DT&MR-] without the dashes. This section is for
| non-romantic events that pseudo-randomly occur around the island. They're
| listed loosely in the order you'll likely encounter them.
|
| Some of these events occur at the very beginning of the game, so let me
| state something kind of obvious: you're not meant to do these events on
| their own, without playing any other element of the game at the same time.
| You should still be doing your farming, ranching, fishing, socializing, or
| whatever else it is that you do while you complete these events. Don't just
| complete a step of the event, then go home and go to sleep. This isn't that
| kind of RPG.
|
| Note that the titles for these events are my own creation -- they're not
| labeled this way in the game anywhere.
|
|\______________ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Fix the Bridge \
| \
| At the very start of the game, you must complete the Fix the Bridge event
| before you can get started with the plotline. I'm separating it, though,
| because aside from allowing the plotline to start, it really doesn't flow
| as a cohesive story. Also, in case you just jumped right to this point,
| read the paragraph directly above this one, before the start of this
| section.
|
| This event is reasonably self-explanatory, so there's a good chance you
| should be able to complete it without reading this.
|
| As you may or may not know, in order to start the plotline, you'll need to
| visit the Goddess Spring. Unfortunately, the Goddess Spring is accessed
| through Garmon Mine District, and the bridge to the district is down. It's
| up to Bo to repair it.
|
| So, now it's just a matter of waiting for Bo to get off his tush and repair
| it, right? Of course not. You're responsible for triggering various
| elements of the event that will eventually lead to him repairing the
| bridge.
|
| To start the event off, attempt to go down the path behind your farm toward
| Garmon Mine District. You'll run into Bo, who will explain everything I
| just said. Then he'll ask you to get his toolbox from the Mayor.
|
| Head over to Town Hall and talk to the Mayor to get the toolbox. Yeah,
| right -- you wish it was that easy. Before he'll give you the toolbox,
| Hamilton (the Mayor) asks you to make sure you've met everyone around the
| island first. So, go do that. The villagers you need to meet are:
| - Simon at the Simon's Studio.
| - Shelly & Candace at Sonata Tailoring.
| - Kathy & Hayden outside Brass Bar.
| - Ozzie at the Fishery.
| - Jake & Colleen at the Dock past the Fishery.
| - Maya & Yolanda at Ocarina Inn.
| - Irene at Choral Clinic.
| - Perry & Mira in the Church.
| - Chase at the Church area.
|
| Those are all the folks Hamilton cares if you meet, but there are a lot
| more villagers to meet as well. They are:
| - Hannah & Cain at Horn Ranch, at the shop and barn respectively.
| - Renee at the Windmill by Horn Ranch.
| - Toby at the Waterwheel in Flute Fields.
| - Craig, Taylor & Ruth at Marimba Farm.
|
| And after Bo fixes the bridge, you'll also be able to meet:
| - Dale at the Carpenter's Shop.
| - Ramsey at the Blacksmith's Shop.
| - Owen at Garmon Mine.
| - Julius at the Accessory Shop.
| - Barbara at the General Store.
|
| Once you're done (Finn will let you know -- remember, it's only that first
| list of people that you need to find), return and talk to Hamilton again.
| He'll give you the toolbox. Take that back to Bo and give it to him (talk
| to him while the toolbox is in your hands). That does it! Except that
| apparently Bo is hungry, and won't work until you bring him food. Spoiled
| little... anyway, time to bring Bo some food. But not just any food: he
| specifically requests milk and a strawberry. You can get them on your own
| farm if your cow is grown and you've planted Strawberries, but it's easier
| just to buy them from Horn Ranch and Marimba Farm (assuming it's still
| Spring), respectively. They cost 700G together, so it might take you a
| little while to earn the money to buy them -- if you're running low on
| money, gather some mushrooms in the mine to get that sum quickly.
|
| Take the items back to Bo (talk to him while one is in your hands, then the
| other). The next morning, he'll pop by your farm and tell you that the
| repairs are all finished. Woo-hoo! That completes the Fixing the Bridge
| event.

| Move the Animals \
| \
| This event is reasonably self-explanatory, so there's a good chance you
| should be able to complete it without reading this.
|
| Now that you've fixed the bridge, you can go to Garmon Mine District and
| take the path between the Carpenter Shop and General Store to the Goddess
| Spring. Unfortunately, as soon as you do so, you'll find that a bunch of
| wild animals are standing in your way.
|
| Now we introduce the new hunting system in... nah, just kidding. Navi --
| er, I mean, Finn -- will pop up and tell you to go find someone that
| understands wild animals. Not that you have any idea who that would be, so
| usually you'd just have to go talk to everyone until someone said something
| useful. Fortunately, you're reading this, so I can tell you just to go talk
| to Dale.
|
| To make a long story short, Dale will say you need an item called the
| Animal Whistle. Time to go on a wild goose chase to find that whistle. Go
| talk to Barbara at the General Store, then Julius at the Accessory Shop or
| anywhere else he goes, then Chloe or Ramsey at the Blacksmith Shop, then
| Owen. Except, Owen's not that easy to find -- he's on the 10th floor of the
| mine.
|
| Once Owen gives you the whistle, head back to the menagerie blocking the
| Goddess Spring and use it just like you'd use any other tool. They'll move
| their butts. That completes the Accessing the Goddess Spring event.
|

| Theodore's Circus Event \
| \
| The first time Theodore's circus comes to town (Spring 22), head over to
| the Celesta Church area. Unfortunately, it seems that some of his circus
| animals have wandered off, and it's up to you to help find them. You can't
| complete this event the first time Theodore comes to town because certain
| items can only be obtained in later seasons. Don't worry, he comes back on
| the 22nd of every month, and you can complete the event in stages.
|
| To find his animals, you'll need to do two things:
| - Make a dish to feed to each animal to get it to follow you back.
| - Find each animal by blowing the animal whistle that Owen gave you.
|
| First, go home and make the three dishes. Since you're reading this guide,
| you could actually do this in advance. The three recipes are:
| - Good Herb Fish: Cook any Herb and up to four fish in the Oven. The sale
| value of the items you cook must be at least 250G. If you end up with a
| Perfect or Shining Herb Fish, it should still work.
| - Bread: Bread is also made in the oven, using Milk, Butter and Flour.
| Flour might be hard to come by at your early stage of the game: it
| requires wheat, one of the more expensive seeds, and the waterwheel in
| Flute Fields.
| - Vegetable Pizza: This one's tough. You'll need a good bit of
| preparation to make a Vegetable Pizza, and it isn't sold anywhere.
| First, this is important: save one of the Potatoes that grows on your
| farm when you first start the game. Secondly, get some Cheese, either
| from your own animal or from Horn Ranch. Third, get a Tomato, either
| grown yourself in Summer or bought from a Level 2 Marimba Farm in
| Summer. Fourth, get a Bell Pepper, either grown yourself in Fall or
| bought from a Level 2 Marimba Farm in Fall. Last, get a Pie Crust by
| putting Butter (bought or from your animals) and Wheat (from Flour,
| grown or bought year-round from Level 2 Marimba Farm) together with the
| Cutting Board. Then, cook the Potato, Cheese, Tomato, Bell Pepper and
| Pie Crust together in the oven.
|
| You'll be using these dishes in order. To make this easier, before the
| 22nd, cook one of each of the ones you can (odds are, only the first two in
| Spring) and have it in your rucksack when you go to see Theodore.
|
| Theodore will tell you that three animals are missing: the Giraffe,
| Elephant and Hippopotamus. You must find them in order, and you have to
| return to talk to Theodore between finding each one.
|
| _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Eunice the Giraffe
|
| Eunice the Giraffe is hiding behind the lighthouse near the ocean. Head
| near the lighthouse and equip the whistle, then press A to use it. You'll
| be prompted to offer the Giraffe some food: he wants the Good Herb Fish.
| You might have to blow the whistle twice to be prompted to turn over the
| dish.
|
| Once you've given the Giraffe the dish, he'll return to Theodore. You
| should do the same.
|
| _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Trunks the Elephant
|
| To find Trunks, you first have to convince Vegeta and Bulma to... wait,
| wrong universe.
|
| Trunks the Elephant is hiding near the entrance to Fugue Forest, in Flute
| Fields. Head near the forest and equip the whistle, then press A to use it.
| You'll be prompted to offer the Elephant some food: he wants the Bread. You
| might have to blow the whistle twice to be prompted to turn over the dish.
|
| Once you've given the Elephant the dish, he'll return to Theodore. You
| should do the same.
|
| _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
| Humphrey the Hippopotamus
|
| Humphrey the Hippopotamus is hiding in the swamp inside Fugue Forest. Head
| all the way to the Witch's House and equip the whistle, then press A to use
| it. You'll be prompted to offer the Hippopotamus some food: he wants the
| Vegetable Pizza. You might have to blow the whistle twice to be prompted to
| turn over the dish.
|
| Once you've given the Hippopotamus the dish, he'll return to Theodore. You
| should do the same.
|

| The Shortcuts
|
| Once you've rescued all three animals, the circus will take place. Watch
| the show! At the end of it, the three animals will be available as
| shortcuts to some of the more difficult parts of the island. To access
| these shortcuts, just blow your whistle anywhere on the island when there's
| not a pet nearby, and choose where you want to go:
| - Giraffe: The Giraffe will pop up and take you to Harmonica Town,
| outside Town Hall.
| - Elephant: The Elephant will pop up and take you to Flute Fields, at the
| fork that leads to Marimba Farm and Horn Ranch.
| - Hippopotamus: The Hippopotamus will take you to the Witch's House, so
| you don't have to navigate that obnoxious forest anymore.
| - Pig: The Pig will take you back home.
|
| These circus animals apparently know how to scuba dive -- they can pick you
| up even if you're on Toucan Island. Note, though, that to do this, you have
| to blow the whistle Owen gives you -- pressing A and B will whistle for a
| livestock animal, and those won't come on Toucan Island and in some other
| areas.

| Harmony Day \
| \
| Harmony Day is kind of technically a festival, but it doesn't take place at
| any particular location. On the 5th of Winter, all day long you'll receive
| cake from any eligible bachelor or bachelorette with more than 5 hearts, so
| long as you talk to them. You'll also receive an additional boost to a
| person's heart level if you give them cake on this day: this applies to
| every villager.
|
| Cakes are pretty complicated recipes: they all involve Egg, Milk, Butter
| and Flour, with an alternating fifth ingredient that determines what type
| of cake it is. The easier thing to do is just give away the cakes you
| receive: after all, you weren't using them for anything.
|

| Bo's Lunch \
| \
| This one's short and easy. After you've rung the Red Bell, you'll notice
| that Bo spends his time chilling by the broken mine cart in Garmon Mine
| District. But, like the Fix the Bridge event, he apparently can't do
| anything about it with food. And he's too cheap to pay for it, so he wants
| you to bring it to him.
|
| Once you've triggered the event, all you have to do is bring Bo an edible
| gift during the day every day for around a week. Eventually, he'll say he's
| fixed it.
|
| Once it's fixed, you can use the mine cart as a shortcut.
|

| Opening the Accessory Shop \
| \
| This event is reasonably self-explanatory, so there's a good chance you
| should be able to complete it without reading this.
|
| This event is easy. When you're completing the Accessing the Goddess Spring
| event, Julius will mention that the Accessory Shop won't run without Mira.
| Mira is moping at the church.
|
| Go to the church and talk to her to get her to come re-open the shop.
| There, wasn't that easy?
|

| Toucan Island Drama \
| \
| The first time you visit Toucan Island, you'll trigger an event that
| introduces Sue, Samson and Selena.
|
| Most of the event is just scenes: one when you first enter Pineapple Inn on
| Toucan Island and one afterward outside Ocarina Inn. After that, you'll
| need to head back on the ferry to Harmonica Town.
|
| Once you're back, you'll discover that Selena hid on the ferry and came
| back with you. She'll get a job dancing at Brass Bar. Talk to her there and
| she'll ask you to take a letter back to her mom on Toucan Island.
|
| Take the letter, buy yet another ticket, and give the letter back to Sue.
| She'll thank you with a Hibiscus flower.
