How to Complete A New Chapter Quest – Walkthrough
Starting the Quest
A New Chapter quest for Merida becomes available automatically after completing the “Welcome to the Storybook Vale” quest. Go to Merida and speak with her to initiate the A New Chapter quest.
Gain access to the Bind by removing the Wall of Ink
Merida will be standing in front of the Wall of Ink when you speak with her. To remove the Wall of Ink, you have to use Story Magic (an exclusive currency in Storybook Vale). You can earn Story Magic currency by completing the Dreamlight Duties like removing Inkies, catching Snippets, etc. Make sure to claim the reward of Story Magic after completing the Duties.
After gathering the Story Magic, go near the Wall of Ink and interact with it to remove the wall. It will give you access to the main area of the Bind biome in Storybook Vale. Once done, speak with Merida to continue ahead.
Remove Inkies and Catch Snippets
After speaking with Merida, remove 15 Inkies in the Bind and catch 5 Snippets. Go around the Bind biome and interact with the Inkies to remove them. Equip the Royal Nest tool and swing it on the flying snippets to catch them.
Once done, speak with Merida to report to her that Bind is already looking good.
Check on Goofy and Scrooge McDuck
As you clear out the Bind, Goofy and Scrooge walk into the Bind. Open the map to find them next to their stall and shop. Speak with them one by one to continue ahead.
Catch Fish/Seafood and Mine Gems/Minerals for Goofy and Scrooge
Go to the ocean water in the Bind biome to find the ripples (bubbles) and start fishing for any fish or seafood. Catch any 3 fish or seafood for Goofy. Once done, go to the wall edges of the Bind biome to find the mining nodes. Equip the Pickaxe to start mining the nodes and pick up any gems and minerals. Get 10 gems or minerals for Scrooge McDuck.
After gathering the goods for Goofy and Scrooge, go and tell them the good news.
Unlock Goofy’s Stall and Scrooge’s Store
Once done, interact with the Scrooge’s Signboard beside the Goofy’s Stall to unlock it. After that, go over to Scrooge’s store and interact with the sign to unlock Scrooge’s store. Unlocking these two shops will not cost you any money.
After dealing with Goofy and Scrooge, return to Merida and speak with her.
Open the mysterious beneath the bridge in the Bind
Interact with the mysterious door underneath the bridge to open it. Head inside and interact with a sparkling note on the floor to find the clue. Once done, speak with Merida and go through the dialogues. After that, go back inside Aurora’s Room and interact with the shelf in front to reveal a golden lever. Use the Royal Nest to rotate the lever and it will initiate a brief cutscene.
Place the foundation of Merida’s House in the Bind
After the cutscene and speaking with Merida, open the Furniture Menu and navigate to the Requests section to find Merida’s House Foundation. Place it anywhere in the Bind biome. Now, interact with Scrooge’s Signboard to build Merida’s House. It will cost you 5,000 Star Coins.
As you build Merida’s House, you will get to welcome her. Once done, speak with her again to conclude the quest.
