The Forgotten Project Quest Guide in Disney Dreamlight Valley

This comprehensive quest guide will walk you through completing “The Forgotten Project” quest with Donald Duck in Disney Dreamlight Valley. Donald has been asking around about a mysterious time capsule, and you’ll help him uncover its secrets by gathering rare flowers, crafting a special potion, and finding hidden crates across the valley.

Starting the Quest: Talk to Merlin

Begin by heading to the Frosted Heights to find Merlin. He appears to have answers for nearly everything in the valley. When you speak with Merlin about The Forgotten Project, he’ll explain that the time capsule is under an enchantment.

Merlin reveals that to break the enchantment, you’ll need to produce the right fragrance. He provides you with a specific list of ingredients required for the potion.

Gathering Ingredients for the Odorous Magnificus Potion

To craft the potion that will unlock the time capsule, you’ll need to collect the following ingredients:

2 Yellow Bromelades

3 Pink House Leaks

2 White Marsh Milkweed

3 Blue Hydrangeas

1 Empty Vial

Yellow Bromelades – Sunlit Plateau

Yellow Bromelades are large, bushy flowers found in the Sunlit Plateau. Look for the distinctive yellow blooms scattered throughout this region.

Pink House Leaks – Sunlit Plateau

These tall pink flowers are also located in the Sunlit Plateau, making it convenient to gather both flower types from the same area.

White Marsh Milkweed – Glade of Trust

Travel to the Glade of Trust to find the two white marsh milkweed flowers you need for this recipe.

Blue Hydrangeas – Dazzle Beach

Head to Dazzle Beach to collect the three blue hydrangeas. These vibrant blue flowers stand out against the beach landscape.

Empty Vial – Crafting Table

You can craft an Empty Vial at the crafting table, so you won’t need to search for this ingredient in the world.

Crafting the Odorous Magnificus Potion

Once you’ve gathered all the ingredients, head to the crafting bench. Open the crafting menu and navigate to the Potions and Enchantments section to find the Odorous Magnificus recipe.

Craft the potion and prepare to deliver it to Merlin to unlock the time capsule’s enchantment.

Delivering the Potion and Opening the Time Capsule

Return to Merlin with the completed Odorous Magnificus potion. He’ll confirm that the aroma has successfully unlocked the time capsule’s enchantment.

Open the time capsule in your inventory. Inside, you’ll discover a map fragment showing three X marks indicating locations of hidden crates throughout the valley.

Locating the Three Hidden Crates

First: Talk to Donald About Your Discovery

Before heading out to find the crates, speak with Donald to discuss what you’ve found inside the time capsule.

Obtaining the Dreamlight Magnifier

Next, talk to Mickey about the Dreamlight Magnifier he owns. He generously gives you the magnifier since he no longer needs it. You’ll use this tool to locate the hidden crates in the Sunlit Plateau.

First Crate – Near Scar’s Cave

Head back to the Sunlit Plateau. The first crate is located near Scar’s Cave. Use your Dreamlight Magnifier on it to collect the wooden crate.

Second Crate – Near the River and Obelisk

The second crate is positioned down near the river close to the old obelisks. Use your magnifier to identify and collect this wooden crate as well.

Third Crate – Outside the Vitalist Mine

The final crate is located up near the other bridge, right outside the Vitalist Mine entrance. Use your magnifier one last time to collect this crate.

Completing the Quest

Once you’ve collected all three crates from their locations, return to Donald with your findings. Present him with all three crates to complete “The Forgotten Project” quest.

Congratulations! You’ve successfully completed The Forgotten Project quest and discovered the mystery of the time capsule alongside Donald Duck.

Summary

The Forgotten Project is a multi-stage quest that requires careful gathering and crafting. The key steps are: gathering flowers from various locations (Sunlit Plateau, Glade of Trust, and Dazzle Beach), crafting the Odorous Magnificus potion, using the Dreamlight Magnifier to locate three hidden crates in the Sunlit Plateau, and finally delivering them to Donald. With this guide, you’ll complete the quest efficiently and unlock all the rewards it offers.
