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 Elixa's Hospital in Neverberry Thicket 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, Elixa will greet you:

Elixa: "Fairyname Here! Welcome! What can I do for you?"
"Animal Friend Name Here is feeling poorly? What are the symptoms? Fever, no energy -- and Animal Friend Name’s colors are fading? Why, that’s Fading Flu!"
"I know just the tonic to cure it! Shall we get started?"

Step 1

Accept this quest?

Elixa: "That’s it then! While I begin work, would you do me a teensy favor, as Rosetta would say? I spilled berry juice all over my shoes."
"Could you fly to Mendy’s Tailoring Nook and make me a new pair?"

Fly to Mendy's Tailoring Nook in Maple Tree Hill. Use Community Tailoring to make any pair of shoes you like. Return to Elixa's Hospital in Neverberry Thicket when you are done!
Progress: # of 1

Story So Far

Your Dragonfly has the Fading Flu. But before you help Elixa make the cure, fly to Mendy’s Tailoring Nook and Community Tailor any pair of shoes you choose.

Flap over to Mendy's Tailoring Nook located in Maple Tree Hill. Once there, pick Community Tailoring and choose any pair of shoes you like from the list. When you have tailored the slippers, flit back to Elixa and speak to her again.

Step 2

I made a pair of shoes for Elixa!

Elixa: "Oh, Fairyname here, thank you so much!"
"Now for Animal Friend Name Here cure. First we need Blueberries. Will you gather some?"

Gather 8 Blueberries and bring them to Elixa's Hospital in Neverberry Thicket.
Progress: # of 8

An ingredient collecting task! You are searching for Blueberries, if you don’t have 8 already. Once you get the required 8 Blueberries, return to Elixa and give them to her.

Step 3

I have Blueberries for Elixa!

Elixa: "Very good! Now, this cure tonic needs to simmer for exactly 45 seconds."
"You know, I never seem to have a timer when I need one."
"Fairyname here, could you get me another Acorn Timer at Harmony’s Home Collection?"

Fly to Harmony's Home Collections in Neverberry Thicket and get an Acorn Timer. Bring it to Elixa's Hospital in Neverberry Thicket when you are done!

Step 5

I have Pine Needles for Elixa!

Elixa: "Wonderful! The tonic is starting to warm up, so it’s time to add something unusual -- a Shimmer Jay feather."
"I’m good friends with Hen and Peck, two Shimmer Jays. They’ll give me feathers if I give them a gift. Let’s see, what might they like?"
"I’ve got it! Will you fly to Copper’s Tinkering Nook and make them a Leaf Blanket for their nest?"

Fly to Copper's Tinkering Nook in Maple Tree Hill. Use Community Tinkering to make a Leaf Blanket. Bring it to Elixa's Hospital in Neverberry Thicket when you are done!
Progress: # of 1

Story So Far

Your Dragonfly has Fading Flu. Fly to Copper’s Tinkering Nook and Community Tinker a Leaf Blanket!

Your next step is a Tinkering task. Fly to Maple Tree Hill and enter Copper's Tinkering Nook. In order to complete this task, you will have to have the Blueprint unlocked for Community Tinkering. To unlock the Leaf Blanket Blueprint, you must complete the Seedpod Fan Blueprint first. After you have tinkered the blanket, return to Elixa.

Step 6

I made a Leaf Blanket for Hen and Peck!

Elixa: "Perfect!"
"While I take it to them, I need you to get the final ingredient for Animal Friend Name Here’s cure tonic -- Buttercup Petals!"

Gather 10 Buttercup Petals and bring them to Elixa's Hospital in Neverberry Thicket.
Progress: # of 10

Last task -- more ingredient collecting! This time you are looking for Buttercup Petals, if you don’t have 10 already. Once you get the required 10 Buttercup Petals, return to Elixa and give them to her.

The Cure

I have Buttercup Petals for Elixa!

Elixa: "That’s it then! Hen and Peck gave me a Shimmer Jay feather. Let’s add it and the Buttercup Petals to the mixture!"
"The tonic is simmering nicely now. The timer says everything will be ready in three ... two ... one ... it’s done!"
"Here you are, Fairyname Here. This will take care of that nasty flu."
"Remember, when your Animal Friend grows up, you should release them back into the wild. Please stop by if Animal Friend Name Here gets sick again. Stay healthy!"

Your Animal Friend gains 100 Health Points and is now healed! If your Animal Friend is not yet fully grown, it will also gain some Age Points.
