But wishes alone can&#8217;t do anything: you have to <em>do something<\/em> to <em>make<\/em> your wishes come true. That&#8217;s where the adventures come in!<\/p>\n<p>The Tootangan Wish Mist clouds the Isles of Adventure. Beyond the Mist, no one can travel. But, it&#8217;s also this Wish Mist that brings you from Earth to Tootsville!<\/p>\n<p>The Mist Parrots help you cross back and forth. They&#8217;re the only creatures who can safely navigate through the Mist. Their names are Nick and Jodie.<\/p>\n<p>Once you reach Tootanga, you&#8217;ll find that there are many Wishing Fountains \u2014 or Wishing Ponds or Wishing Wells \u2014 throughout the land. Most of them are near towns and villages, like the one in Toot Square. That&#8217;s the one where Zap wished for peanuts, and discovered the magic of wishes. You, too, can visit a fountain and make\u00a0 a wish, and you&#8217;ll get peanuts, too!<\/p>\n<p>Peanuts are a way that you can save up the power of wishes and use them later. They have two purposes in Tootsville.<\/p>\n<p>You can use peanuts like humans use money. Toots&#8217; shops all over Tootanga will accept peanuts as money.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use peanuts to power magic items as well.<\/p>\n<h2>Shade and the Evil Mayor<\/h2>\n<p>Tootsville fell on hard times back in 2012 and nobody could register a new account. Sometimes, players couldn&#8217;t even sign in.
