The Hearts of Darkness have returned to Aetolia! The witch behind this
game has once more set up her shop at North of Trees, selling items in
exchange for the Hearts of Darkness you collect. Keep a look out for
some new items appearing in her shop over the next couple of days.

To obtain a Heart of Darkness, you must first CALLFORTH HEARTSTRING to
summon your Heartstring Bow. With the bow summoned, you can then SHOOT
<player> [<direction>]. If someone is hit three times in quick
succession, and you land the third hit, you will take their Heart of
Darkness.

If you have been shot by a Heartstring Bow, there is a short delay
before you may use your own bow. If you lose your Heart of Darkness, you
will unable to use your Heartstring Bow completely until your Heart
regenerates in 30 minutes time.

Lastly, this year the witch has promised a small reward to those who
manage to collect at least three Hearts...
