    Please follow the forum posting rules or your post may be removed. Thanks. [added 25 April]

    * There are 3 optional timed goals. If you do not complete this goal in the allotted time, you will only lose out on the reward.
    * The timer is dependent on when you trigger the goal. You get the remainder of the S8 day you're in + full day/s depending on the goal. So, if you are going to trigger this goal, wait till your new day begins and then you will get the most amount of time. Even better, wait until you have all (or nearly all) of the resources FIRST before upgrading to the goal that triggers a timed portion.
    * Keep crafting red dye ahead of time. If you were maxed on it, you still need 40 more to finish level 10.
    * Ready-made Red Dye found: Witch's cauldron, Witch Alicolt
    * Spring petals are *RARE*. They are only found in chopping Patches of Tall Grass and from the Spring Flower (gem purchase).
    * Spring petals will only drop when they are needed.

    * FOR PLAYERS GOING FOR THE LEVEL 10 TEA PARTY: Scroll down to post 4 where ShibuyaCloth has worked out how many items you need. [Thank you SC!]

    not sure exactly where this goes, but there is another side goal.... SW
    OPTIONAL GOAL #2 - this means that you will only lose out on the reward if you do not complete this goal in time.
    * You get ? days to complete this goal, but the timer is dependent on when you trigger the goal. You get the remainder of the S8 day you're in +22 hours. So, if you are going to trigger this goal, wait till your new day begins and then you will get the most amount of time. Even better, wait until you have all (or nearly all) of the resources FIRST before upgrading to level 5 and trigger this goal.

    Begins once you have upgraded the Tea Party to level ?

    Ivy: NOTE: Beating this quest is TIME SENSITIVE. Completing the timed quest will get you ahead. You do not HAVE to complete the timed quest in order to progress.
    If you complete the optional timed goal you will receive 1 sweet.
