Archery and Archrivals Walkthrough (Merida Level 4 Friendship Quest) In Disney Dreamlight Valley

As a seasoned Dreamlight Valley resident with countless hours invested in forging friendships with the valley’s vibrant inhabitants, I must say that Merida and Flynn Rider’s friendship quest, Archery and Archrivals, was an absolute delight! The storyline was engaging, and the tasks were both challenging and fun.


In the expansion called The Storybook Vale of Disney Dreamlight Valley, Merida and Flynn Rider are two new characters introduced. Once you’ve unlocked Merida and the renowned trickster, you may be eager to have them join the Valley. However, it appears that Flynn’s presence in the Vale rubs Merida the wrong way, especially when he offers advice on her archery techniques. Consequently, Merida decides to challenge him to a friendly archery competition within her ‘Archery and Archrivals’ level four Friendship Quest, intending to teach him a lesson.

Besides resolving their disagreement, playing Archery and Archrivals also requires skills like crafting and cooking. This includes preparing one of Disney Dreamlight Valley’s dishes, specifically the Persimmon Sour Fondue recipe, in the Storybook Vale.

To access Merida’s fourth level of the “Archery and Archrivals” Friendship Quest, some tasks need to be completed following the successful finish of the second level quest called “Clan Dunbroch’s Rules of the Hunt.” Here’s how to proceed:

  • Unlock Flynn Rider as a character.
  • Unlock the Wild Woods biome, which costs 2,000 Storybook Magic.
  • Level up your friendship with Merida to level four.

After completing the previous steps, engage in a conversation with Merida, then select the “Archery and Rival Challenges” option to initiate the quest.

Remove The Wanted Posters From Flynn’s House And Bring Them To Merida

The initial task is to communicate with Flynn, as he informs you that Merida has hung his wanted notices throughout her home following their dispute. Unfortunately, the posters continue to misrepresent him, particularly in terms of his nose. Your mission involves removing all five posters from around Flynn’s house by engaging with them and subsequently conversing with Merida. She proposes that preparing a grand feast might help mend the rift between them.

Make Persimmon Sour Fondue

As a gamer in Disney Dreamlight Valley, I’ll dive into my inventory and whip out the Persimmon Sour Fondue recipe, a delightful desert recipe from Merida. To prepare this 2-star dessert, one of Storybook Vale’s cooking recipes, I need to collect ingredients below. In The Bind, I can find the necessary fruits for Persimmon Sour Fondue. These ingredients are two types of fruit growing on trees scattered around The Bind. Let’s pick them up and get ready to cook!

  • Persimmon
  • Sour Berries

To achieve your goal, gather not less than two of the provided ingredients to prepare two Persimmon Sour Fondues. After cooking them, engage in conversation with Merida within her cottage, where you’ll witness an amusing exchange between her and Flynn. In an attempt to settle their differences, Merida proposes a friendly archery contest as a possible solution.

Place The Archery Contest Signs Around The Bind And Gather Materials To Make The Archery Targets

Feel free to position the five archery contest signs throughout The Bind as desired, by retrieving them from your Furniture inventory. Now, let’s move on to creating the archery targets. To do this, gather the necessary resources and head over to the crafting table located near your home once you find these items:

  • 20 Petrified Wood – by mining rocks and small rock nodes around The Bind and inside The Library of Lore.
  • Four Blue Tale Cone Flowers – a random spawn drop around The Bind.
  • Six Yellow Tale Cone Flowers – another random spawn around The Bind.
  • 16 Wheat – you can get plenty from Goofy’s stall in the Peaceful Meadow if you don’t already have some in your inventory.

After some time, expect the Blue or Yellow Tale Cone Flowers to bloom. Keep checking and they won’t take long to show up. Once you have made two archery targets, present them to Merida. She suggests we hold the contest at the Fairy Trial location in the Wild Woods.

Meet Merida Inside The Wild Woods Fairy Tale Trial For The Archery Competiton

In the climactic sequence of Archery and Archrivals, the events unfold within the “Fairy Tale Challenge in the Enchanted Forest“. Here, you gain access to Flynn Rider in the Disney Dreamlight Valley’s “A Sheep in Wolf’s Clothing” mission. To begin, find the Fairy Trial through the portal situated in the Enchanted Forest and engage in conversation with Merida to initiate the archery contest between her and Flynn. The subsequent stages of this quest consist of various tasks alternating between Merida, Flynn, and the archery targets as follows:

  • Talk to Merida and Flynn in The Fairy Tale Trial, plus take a picture of Flynn next to the target after he shoots an arrow.
  • Investigate the archery targets to find Flynn’s Magnet and show it to Flynn – it turns out the roguish Villager is cheating and perhaps doesn’t shoot arrows so well after all.
  • Talk to Merida and retrieve her trick shot arrow from the archery targets – an arrow with three apples.
  • Show Merida’s trick shot arrow to Flynn and watch the pair chat to resolve their differences.

Completing all the listed objectives concludes the ‘Archery and Archrivals’ mission, implying that Flynn and Merida have reconciled. Now, you may continue exploring Storybook Vale or focus on Merida’s next Friendship quest. To start this quest, reach Friendship level 7 once you’ve unlocked Haydes and a few other villagers in the Valley.
