====Eight Cupcake Orders====

==== Classes have begun at the School of Sorcery! ====
The King has organized another birthday cupcake extravaganza! However, yet again several mice with a sweet tooth have proven to be a nuisance by stealing cupcakes. WHY does this keep happening?! The King needs the help of hunters to recover the stolen cupcakes and ship out orders.
+
The Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it involves instructing the mice of the Folklore Forest in the ways of his malevolent magic!
  
Upon arriving at the birthday celebration, you can pick up to three orders to work on at once from the heads-up display. There are eight different varieties of orders available, each celebrating a different year of MouseHunting! While you have a particular order active, you'll notice a few mice visiting your trap that originally appeared in the Kingdom during the order's respective year. These mice almost always carry a cupcake and a few even have other bonus loot with them!

The King needs the bravest and most studious MouseHunters, Viceroy and above, to enroll at the new School of Sorcery and teach the Mythweaver and his minions a thing or two about classroom etiquette.

====Collecting Cupcake Colby and new Extra Sweet Cupcake Colby====
+
==== Lessons in the Science of Refraction ====
In order to lure cupcake carrying mice, you'll need either Cupcake Colby or a new type of cheese called Extra Sweet Cupcake Colby. The extra sweet version of Cupcake Colby will attract the various cupcake-themed mice more often and is the only way to attract the new Cupcake Camo and Cupcake Candle Thief mice!

The new Trapsmith at the School of Sorcery has become a master of refractive science and has developed an extraordinary new entry into the line of refractor bases.

These mice, with their especially powerful sweet teeth are known for stealing cupcakes and as such often drop one or more cupcakes when captured!

Shipping an order with sprinkles will always add either: 10 pieces of SUPER|brie+, 10 pieces of Magical String, OR 10 pieces of Glowing Gruyere Cheese (depending on the type of order shipped). Additionally, you'll also receive a handful of other loot items based on the order you shipped, with more difficult orders rewarding a greater variety of items!

Red, Yellow, and Blue Cupcakes are the most commonly found type of cupcakes. They're used in every variety of order. If you find yourself with a few too many of a specific colour, visit the General Store where you can exchange 12 of a single colour for 6 differently-coloured cupcakes.

Green and Rainbow are harder to find than the other three cupcakes. More difficult orders will require more Green, and orders from year six, seven, and eight '''always''' require one or two Rainbow cupcakes. You'll also find these cupcakes in Daily Loyalty Chests and as rare drops from mice!

There are eight different types of orders you can fulfill, one for each year of MouseHunting! Later year orders require more cupcakes, but they come with greater rewards!
+
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''The bell is ringing!'''</div></div>
  
While you're actively working on an order, a few mice that were released during that year can be encountered. Although these mice may vary in power type weaknesses, their insatiable love of sugar has them on an out-of-control sugar rush. Mice you encounter at the birthday party zone will have weaknesses to '''ALL''' power types, although, their typical weaknesses are still likely to be their greatest. These mice drop cupcakes the most often so be sure to always have an order on the go!
