1. Do we have to visit Shangri La and enter the palace every time we start an AVH?

2. If that's the case and if we are to collect an AVH prize, then can we go to the city where the Prince is to start yet another AVH, then, with the invitation we have, go to Shangri La both to collect the prize and get the mission?

Hi Eden. Congratulations on completing your first AVH!

1. Yes, you must visit Shangri La and enter the palace in order to receive an AVH mission from the Prince. ... every time.

2. You only need one invitation from the Ambassador to enter the Palace. It last forever. Look under 'Missions' on your detective page and you will see the invitation still listed there. You can collect your prize(s) at any time.

@Moderators: I hope none of the above is considered a spoiler?

PM also sent.

1. Yes.

2. You go to Shangri La to take your prize (have to solve the door puzzle again every time you go claim a prize if you don't have a key) and you can start another hunt right then, or come back later. Since you don't know what type of object you will like (you can take a hat, coat or accessory) you'll probably go there in boots and underware, so if you start a hunt straight up you'll lose some turns going back for your equipment (unless you get lucky and the new hunt starts in the city where you stashed your rags). You don'y follow the prince through the cities anymore. That's a one time gig to get access to Shangri La.

Drats Fleur...your reply wasn't up when I started writing...hehe...guess I shouldn't have stopped to fill my coffee mug.

Thank you Fleur :). This answers most of my questions.

I have no new PM in the inbox, though. I hadn't known some AVH topics are being considered as spoilers, sorry.

:)) Joey Bane, thank you, too. Your comment on losing turns is an additionally useful info, too.

And as a coffee monster myself, I appreciate what you did for me, haha, even if I doubt that what you filled your mug with is actually coffee :)

Lol Eden, yes I think it was probably something a lot stronger laced with coffee!
