How to Complete Shadows and Bows in Disney Dreamlight Valley

First things first, the Shadows and Bows quest can only be started after players complete the "Missing Minnie" friendship quest for Mickey. To start this quest, players will need to talk to Mickey about Minnie’s apparition. Mickey reveals that earlier, he asked Merlin to help him when he saw the shadow of Minnie in the village. Merlin added the enchantment to Minnie's signature bow and made it a Memory Magnet, so the magical bow has the potential to get powered up when anyone shares memories of Minnie.

Mickey believes that the bow can get Minnie back to her normal form if it is powered up with enough memories, just like an antenna that can reach Minnie wherever she is. Therefore, players will need to take the bow and ask Goofy and McDuck about their favorite memories with Minnie. This will imbue the bow with more memories of Minnie.

Return to Mickey and Talk to Minnie

After talking to Goofy and McDuck and powering up the magical bow, get back to Mickey and accompany him to the Wishing Well in the middle of the Plaza. There, players will see the shadow of Minnie again. This time, they will have the option of engaging in a conversation with her.

As players start talking to Minnie, she will tell them that she is stuck in the void and that she has been making futile efforts to return to the valley. In addition, she will also ask players to let her talk to Mickey. As they start talking, the ghost will start fading. When she completely disappears, give the bow back to Mickey, completing the Shadows and Bows friendship quest.

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