 Having established a partnership with Don Tylor, leader of the New Rogues, the first step toward a new era was taken.  President Laia Martinez next approached the Communion of Gurhal to inquire about LSS technology in hopes of using it to oppose the threat of the enormous HIVE.  Her request was denied.  In response to Light Master Rutsu's obstinate stance, Laia sent a small group of Guardians into the Communion's LSS facility to carry out an investigation.  During the investigation however, the LSS facility was destroyed by a mysterious explosion!

 == Event overview ==
-The objective of [[Frozen Flowers]], the main event mission, is to purify the ice-infected creatures that are running wild in and around Old Hakura Temple while destroying the SEED cores that are spreading their icy infection.  At the beginning of each run, players will receive a [[Photon Reflector]], a piece of equipment that is vital to purifying SEED cores.  Used in conjunction with the naturally-occurring photon spots, this tool can break through the protective Blewme, exposing the SEED core to make it vulnerable to normal weapons.  After clearing the main mission, players are given the opportunity to take on a purification challenge in the frozen tundra of Vio Tonga through the bonus mission [[Frigid Challenge]].  Cooperation is key here, so be sure to plan ahead!

-As players purify the infected creatures, the total number of kills is tallied on the official event site.  (Enemy counts are added to the server-wide total at the end of each mission.)  When the kill count reaches specific milestones, rewards for both during and after the event are unlocked.  Furthermore, the main and bonus missions feature boosted EXP payout, and the [[Raysphere]]s collected from missions can be taken to the event trading post to swap out for many exclusive items!
