In Disney Dreamlight Valley, the very essence of the game revolves around fostering friendships. Almost every task the player undertakes aims at deepening relationships with the village's diverse residents. Simple gestures, such as giving cooked meals or flowers, contribute to enhancing these friendships. As these relationships grow, the player unlocks new quests and gains access to exclusive rewards.

One Valley resident especially in need of friendship assistance is The Beast. His initial Friendship quest, "The Beast With No Bite," becomes accessible at level 2. This guide will detail how to successfully complete this quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

The quest "The Beast With No Bite" unlocks upon reaching Friendship Level 2 with The Beast. Once they meet this requirement, the player should speak with The Beast, who reveals that he has been feeling a bit down lately since moving into the Valley. Additionally, he shares that he still has concerns about Belle’s feelings toward him. Thankfully, the player has some ideas to help him out of his funk.

The Beast admits that he’s having trouble communicating with Belle, and other villagers, without the counsel of the unfortunately absent Lumière and Cogsworth. The player offers to help him out by speaking to villagers on his behalf and getting insights into maintaining relationships and uplifting someone's spirits.

Speak with Mickey and Mirabel

Wait Until a Clear Night to Set The Table

Placing table for Belle's dinner date in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

Not only should the food be perfect, but the atmosphere needs to be just right, too. The player needs to wait until after sunset on a night with clear skies; typically, after 7 PM will suffice. Remember, adjusting the in-game time settings won't affect this, and time traveling is never recommended as it can cause irreparable issues to the game’s save data.

Once the time is right, return to the Beast and give him the prepared dishes. Retrieve the Date-Night Exterior Table from The Beast and set it up at a location of choice anywhere in the Valley.

Once placed, this will trigger the date event between Belle and The Beast, and the player can witness their romantic exchanges. After capturing the moment with a photo, the Beast will confess that the date went exceptionally well, and will allow the player to keep the table as a memento. This wraps up the "The Beast With No Bite" quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley, with the next Friendship quest being unlocked at Friendship Level 4.

Disney Dreamlight Valley is available now on Nintendo Switch, PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
