Are you ready to dive into the captivating world of Disney Dreamlight Valley? Skull Rock is waiting, promising exciting adventures and hidden treasures. In this guide, we’ll unlock its secrets as you embark on the Shadows on the Wall quest. Discover what lies within and how to solve the mysteries that await!
With years of experience in gaming strategies, I’m here to provide you with clear, actionable tips to enhance your gameplay. Let’s get started!
1. Entering Skull Rock with The Forgotten
Once you successfully complete the “A Forgotten Name” quest and have The Forgotten added to your village, the Shadows on the Wall quest officially commences. Your very first task is to journey to Skull Rock, located in the southeastern portion of Dazzle Beach.
2. Investigate Skull Rock for Clues
As you step inside Skull Rock alongside The Forgotten, you’ll encounter a puzzling shadow flitting about. With both of you puzzled, it’s time to dig deeper for clues.
Your treasure hunt will reveal hidden goodies like ingots and gems, but don’t overlook the crucial dig spot next to a gate where a broken lantern awaits. Use your shovel to unearth it, then show it to The Forgotten. Now you’re ready to find and restore more lanterns!
3. Find and Repair the Broken Lanterns
You’ll soon discern that several more lanterns require restoration within Skull Rock. To proceed with the Shadows on the Wall quest, gather the following materials:
- Broken lanterns (3)
- Gold Ingot (3)
- Glass (9)
- Vitalys Crystal (9)
- Pixie Dust Orbs (3)
First up are the two remaining broken lanterns. You already have one, while the other two are located in the water at the bottom of Skull Rock. Head back down the cave’s ramp to locate two orange fishing spots near a pirate ship. Fish them up to complete your collection!
Next, let’s talk about where to find gold ingots and glass. Kristoff’s stall is a reliable place for both, or you can craft them. For crafting, you’ll need gold nuggets, sourced from mineral rocks in Sunlit Plateau, Frosted Heights, and the Forgotten Lands. Sand can be dug up around Dazzle Beach. Vitalys Crystals are available for mining in the mineshaft of Sunlit Plateau.
Finally, collect Pixie Dust Orbs scattered throughout Dreamlight Valley. One of the best places to spot them includes:
- A bridge in the Forest of Valor
- A bridge in the Glade of Trust
- In front of a pond in the Forgotten Lands
If you don’t see them immediately, wander around until you find them hovering in the air. They tend to evade capture, so eat enough food to sprint after them!
Now that you have all the materials, head to any crafting station, navigate to Functional Items, and craft the Pixie Dust Lanterns. Once done, return to Skull Rock!
4. Look for and Trap the Strange Shadow
Once you’ve secured all three lanterns to the rope winches near The Forgotten, it’s time for a puzzle to uncover the mysterious shadow person. Rotate any of the three winches until the light strikes the wooden plank walls. When you catch a glimpse of the shadow flying by, you’ll know it’s time to trap it.
Your objective is to shine all three lantern lights on one focal spot, ideally just to the right of The Forgotten. Take care not to direct the lanterns at walls, as this minimizes their effectiveness. The correct positioning is crucial to meet the shadow person, who will initially remain immobile and silent.
After your brief encounter, adjust one of the lanterns until its light shines on the gate adjacent to a winch—a helpful strategy is using the lantern on the distant wall close to The Forgotten.
5. Talk to the Jade Skulls
Before concluding the Shadows on the Wall quest, have one last chat with the nearby Jade Skulls. They’ll pose a quiz that you must complete to advance. Here are the answers you’ll need:
- A pirate ship.
- A pixie.
- A pan flute.
After answering all three questions correctly, turn the wheel to wrap up the Shadows on the Wall quest, leading you directly into the A Ship of Gold mission. Get ready for the next adventure!
