The mission: Your story in Rovaniemi

Hei! 

I'm Olavi, a young reindeer herder from Rovaniemi. 

In the early morning, when everybody was sleeping, one of the strongest Northern Lights we have ever seen crossed the city center. It was so bright that all my reindeer were scared and scattered through the streets. 

Its magic was so strong that it has frozen them in pictures and statues.

We have to find the reindeer to reverse the spell and retrieve the herd!
