#01 - QUEEN BORTE'S MISSING JEWELS QUEST
You are invited to participate in a Quest to find Queen Borte's missing jewels. Pity the thief who is responsible for the theft. But rejoice at the reward given to the person who reveals him. That would be you!! : )
(LM to the Tent of Chinggis Khan)
#02 - CABBAGE POLO
In your travels here you are invited to participate in the Cabbage Polo game. Simply rez a horse, ride to the center of the field and rez a cabbage, and then try like crazy to get the cabbage into the goal. You will have a limited time in which to do so before the cabbage disappears. You can play by yourself, or play with friends. You don't even need a horse if you'd rather just run. And did you know that the Mongolians used the heads of their enemies for this game, but cabbages seemed more in tune with today's culture. No Scores, no gifts, just lots of fun.
#03 - HUNT FOR THE GEMS QUEST
Another adventure here is the Hunt for the Gems, held at the Arabian Fort in the land of sand in the Northern region of Mongolia, You will need to wear a hud, which is provided free, and to accept the experience key.
