Walkthrough

Speak with Merlin to start this quest once the requirements have been met.

Dialogue
 

Player! Just who I wanted to see. I've devised a way to further enchant your Watering Can.

 

You should be able to remove the large inconvenient Mushrooms with it.

 

It will require some work, though. Are you ready?

→  Absolutely! I'm sick of those Mushrooms.
 

That's the spirit! The first thing we need is Purified Night Shard Powder.

 

Now the Shards are very hard, but we'll need to crush them.

 

Do you know anyone good at crushing things?

→  I know a little robot who crushes things.
 

You mean WALL•E! Yes, he should be able to help.

 

Speak to him about this as soon as you can.

Merlin needs 5 Purified Night Shards. Crafting them will require 25 Night Shards and 5 Dream Shards.

Both Night Shards and Dream Shards can be obtained from clearing Night Thorns and from digging up the ground. Additionally, Dream Shards can be obtained from giving food to critters.

Find Wall-E after crafting the Purified Night Shards and give them to him.

Dialogue
player

WALL•E, do you think you could crush these Shards for me?

 

WALL•EEEEE!

 

Ta-daaaa!

player

Powder as dark as the night!

→  Thank you, WALL•E!
 

Whoopee!

Return to Merlin with the crushed shards.

Dialogue
 

Excellent, Player! Now, I have a challenge for you.

 

We've been working together some time now, and I think you're ready.

 

Ready... to become a wizard yourself!

→  Do I get a pointy hat?
 

All in good time. Now...

 

This is a book on how to enchant objects.

 

It's written in riddles, which any true wizard can decipher.

 

I'll give you just one hint -- you need the Ice Tear Seed.

 

It was hidden in the binding of the book. Here you are.

Merlin will explain that the riddles within his book must be deciphered.

Gather an Ice Heart, some Falling Water, and 15 Mushrooms.

Mushrooms can be found growing throughout the Glade of Trust or gathered by watering small mushroom patches.

Both the Ice Heart and Falling Water can found using the hints provided by Merlin.

After gathering all the materials, craft the Royal Watering Can Upgrading Ointment and give it to Merlin to apply the enchantment.

Dialogue
 

Splendid! Splendid, player. You've performed the enchantment with great success.

 

Well, don't wait here! Go try it on some of those pungent Mushrooms!

Merlin will upgrade the Water Can, giving it the ability to clear large Mushroom Patches.

Clear a large Mushroom Patch and speak with Merlin again.

Dialogue
 

Player, I'm quite proud of you, you know.

 

You deciphered the enchantment and created magic.

 

Now to mark your status as a true wizard...

 

...here is your very own wizard's hat!
