Mrs. Claus has flagged a high-priority disturbance in Rockefeller City, where the once-beloved Harmony Bell—an artifact capable of repelling evil with its sacred resonance—has been overtaken by the deranged cult leader Humbug and a pack of low-ranking @Hell Demon. Humbug, once a miserable and forgotten man, now wields demonic ice magic gifted by Krampus, freezing civilians in despair and corrupting the Bell’s magic into a weapon of torment.
Inside Harmony Bell, the cult has carved sigils of despair, spreading emotional decay throughout the district. Humbug’s insecurities and craving for control make him unpredictable—he hides behind taunts, false bravado, and manic laughter, but he is ultimately a coward who relies heavily on his demons.
Your goal is to infiltrate the tower, cleanse the area of demonic influence, neutralize Humbug, and restore the Harmony Bell’s protective chime. Defeating him will also weaken Krampus’s hold on the city and prevent the spread of magical despair.
@Mrs. Claus warns that while Humbug is not powerful compared to higher agents of the @The Endless Parade, his magic becomes stronger around the corrupted Bell. Proceed with caution, bring warmth where he spreads cold, and be ready for sudden emotional attacks—Humbug loves to weaponize fear and sadness.
Return the Bell to its rightful harmony, and Rockefeller City may finally hear hope ringing again.
