Quick Steps

In Depth Quest Guide

This is a full walk through for the quest, so if you're confused by any of the quick steps, hopefully these can help you out.

Head over to Silvermist's Grotto in Dewdrop Vale and ask her if she has any quests. The quest should pop up immediately and you'll be able to begin. Upon starting the quest, Silvermist will greet you:

Silvermist: "Raindrop! Oh, I'm so glad you're here because I really need your help! Oh, it's not an emergency or anything. But it is important."
"The frost-talents are working round the clock to make snowflakes and such for winter on the mainland. They're very busy!"
"I'm helping Iridessa make sure they have enough light to work during the night. I could use some help. Are you up for it?"

Step 1

Accept this Quest?

Once you agree, Silvermist is thrilled and gives you the first step.

Silvermist: "Oh, thank you! Let's start by collecting sunbeams. Will you get some by playing Sunbeam Bend? I bet Iridessa is there right now!"

Fly to Sunflower Gully. Earn 30,000 points playing Sunbeam Bend. Return to Silvermist's Grotto in Dewdrop Vale when you are done!
Progress: # of 30,000

Story So Far

You're helping Silvermist bring light to the night-working frost-talents. Play Sunbeam Bend!

Your first task is some talent game practice! Play Sunbeam Bend in Sunflower Gully. Once you reach a score of 30,000 points (whether in one shot or cumulative), quit the game or play until you finish then return to Silvermist.

Step 2

I have sunbeams for Silvermist!

Silvermist: "Great! Drop the sunbeams in this bag so I can carry them to the winter meadows later. For now I'll set them aside."
"While you were gone, I got a message from Rimey Frostleaf, a snowflake maker. He needs a Sweet Tea Light for some close-up work."
"Will you fly to Copper's Tinkering Nook and make him a Sweet Tea Light? He asked us to dye it Carnation White."

Fly to Copper's Tinkering Nook in Maple Tree Hill. Use Personal Tinkering to make a Sweet Tea Light. Use Carnation White Dye from Colette's Colors in Chilly Falls. Fly to Silvermist's Grotto in Dewdrop Vale and give this item to Silvermist when you are done!
Progress: # of 1

Story So Far

You're helping Silvermist bring light to the night-working frost-talents. Fly to Copper's Tinkering Nook and make a Carnation White Sweet Tea Light!

The first thing you need to do for this step is make sure you have a Bottle of Carnation White Dye. If you do not, fly up to Chilly Falls and enter Colette's Colors. Purchase your bottle of dye, which will cost you 10 Pine Needles. Once you have your dye, flap down to Maple Tree Hill and enter Copper's Tinkering Nook. Now pick Personal Tinkering and choose Sweet Tea Light from the list. Make sure to use your Carnation White Dye in one of the two color choices (it does not matter what you choose as the second color)! After you have tinkered the sweet tea light, return to Silvermist and give it to her.

Step 3

I tinkered a Sweet Tea Light for Silvermist!

Silvermist: "Oh, that's so pretty! Great tinkering job, raindrop! I'll take this to Rimey Frostleaf right away!"
"While I do, you need to get some bright sparkly gems. They can provide almost as much light as a candle!"
"Go collect bright gems by playing Gem Juggle. I bet you'll run into Iridessa again!"

Fly to Chilly Falls. Earn 15,000 points playing Gem Juggle. Return to Silvermist's Grotto in Dewdrop Vale when you are done!
Progress: # of 15,000

Story So Far

Step 4

I have bright gems for Silvermist!

Silvermist: "Thanks, dewdrop! These gems will cast a lot of light after I set them in the trees in the winter meadows."
"Now we need help from Tinker Bell. I want her to make some torches, but let's gather the building materials first. Gather Twigs!"

Gather 15 Twigs and bring them to Silvermist's Grotto in Dewdrop Vale.
Progress: # of 15

Tinker Bell: "Hi there, Pixie Name Here! What's flapping?"
"Torches, huh? Sure, I can make you torches in no time, especially since you've brought the materials."
"Why don't you fly back to Silvermist? I'll make the torches and deliver them in Cheese's mouse wagon when I'm done, okay?"

Fly to Silvermist's Grotto. You can get there from Dewdrop Vale!

"I just got a message saying that six lanterns in the winter meadows are broken. The frost-talents need that lantern light!"
"Will you search all the winter meadows, find the six broken lanterns, and fix them all?"

Search the winter meadows for 6 Broken Lanterns. When you find them, fix them by clicking on them. Return to Silvermist's Grotto in Dewdrop Vale when you are done!
Progress: # of 6

Step 9

I fixed the broken lanterns!

Silvermist: "Excellent, raindrop! While you were busy, Tinker Bell delivered the torches, plus she gave us some of her Pick-Me-Up Tea mix."
"I think we should make some Pick-Me-Up Tea for those hard-working frost-talents. But we need a kettle."
"Will you fly to Harmony's Home Collection and get a Bubble'n'Boil Kettle?"

Fly to Harmony's Home Collections in Neverberry Thicket and get a Bubble'n'Boil Kettle. Bring it to Silvermist's Grotto in Dewdrop Vale when you are done!
