How to complete Tales of a Broken Heart in Disney Dreamlight Valley
To complete the Tales of a Broken Heart quest, you need to venture into the Wishblossom's Heart, stop it from decaying, help Tinker Bell, figure out how to stop Wishblossom Ranch from collapsing, and get Snow White set up with a home. There's quite a lot to get done, so here's a full breakdown of how to tackle all parts of this quest.
Follow Snow White to the Wishblossom's Heart entrance
To start, follow Snow White over to the entrance to the Wishblossom's Heart. If you lose sight of her, you can track down the right spot by heading over to the very eastern end of the Wishblossom Ranch area, close to the Wishing Alps text on the map.
You're looking for a rocky archway with some glowing red crystals blocking the path forward. Once you find the right spot, chat with Snow White about how to get rid of them and what to do next.
Remove the strange red crystals
You can't break these mysterious crystals on your own, so mount your horse for some assistance. Approach the crystals while riding and select the button that appears next to the word "Destroy" once you're close to them.
Once you've cleared the way, proceed forward. Follow the path until you reach the giant glowing Wishblossom. A short cutscene will then play as the strange flower talks to you, warning of impending danger.
Use your horse to remove three strange red crystals
The massive Wishblossom is weak and dying, but manages to tell you that destroying the strange red crystals will help. Now, you need to use your horse to destroy three strange red crystals around the area. The crystals can be found:
- At the end of its leftmost root, atop the rock spire. From where you stopped to chat with the Wishbloosom, head slightly left and make a sharp left almost immediately to find a slightly hidden staircase leading upwards. Trot up to the top to find a crystal you can break.
- At the end of its rightmost root, inside the cave. From the spot where you talked to the Wishblossom, head right, hugging close to the edge of the walkable area. Turn right into a cave when you can, and approach the red crystal inside to break it.
- At the end of its rearmost root, atop the overlooking ledge. Trot around to the backside of the massive Wishblossom, then look for a small, slightly obscured pathway blocked by a large glowing root. Start galloping and run straight for it to leap over. Follow the pathway all the way forward until you find a red crystal to destroy.
With all three strange red crystals now broken, return to the Wishblossom to see if you managed to help. A short cutscene will then play as the Wishblossom blooms, now healthy again, and Tinker Bell emerges from within.
Luckily, your special Dreamlight Magic allows you to understand her just like Peter Pan can, so chat with her to assess the situation. She's in dire need of some Pixie Dust to keep Wishblossom Ranch from collapsing.
Harvest Dead Wishblossoms
To gather some Pixie Dust for Tinker Bell, you need to harvest Dead Wishblossoms. These are the pointy brown and gold bushes you've seen everywhere. They're essentially the Wishblossom Ranch version of Night Thorns. Destroying them grants all kinds of prizes, ranging from crops you can plant to Star Coins you can spend.
You can harvest them by galloping through them while riding your horse. Harvest 10 Dead Wishblossoms to progress. Once you've broken 10 Dead Wishblossoms, return to Tinker Bell in front of the massive Wishblossom flower and chat with her.
Follow Tinker Bell over to the right side of the Wishblossom, right between the two caves you previously entered, to break the strange red crystals. Once you're there, chat with her.
You need a special key to proceed forward and help save the ranch, but you don't have it quite yet, so exit the cave and return to Wishblossom Ranch to proceed. Head all the way back over to the stables to chat with Snow White there.
Brush your horse
Your loyal steed has been working quite hard to help you on your adventure so far, so it's time to take a breather and learn how to brush your horse. Dismount them and walk up to them. An array of interactive options will appear, but you only need to select the button that appears next to the word "Brush" to progress.
After you're done brushing your horse, the snowstorm plaguing the area will clear up a bit. Some characters from the valley, like Scrooge McDuck and Mickey Mouse, will arrive, too. Chat with Snow White about this development, and she'll mention that her cottage is ruined.
Place Snow White's house
Locate Scrooge McDuck in Wishblossom Ranch to chat about Snow White's broken house, then open Furniture Mode to find a spot to place it. You can't access this mode while riding your horse, so you'll have to dismount if you are. Place Snow White's home somewhere around the ranch area, then interact with the sign in front of it to spend 2,500 Star Coins and build it.
As soon as you place her home, Snow White will join the valley as an official villager, so you've now got one of the four characters you can befriend in this region unlocked. Then, chat with her one last time to officially complete the Tales of a Broken Heart quest.
