In Disney Dreamlight Valley, players immerse themselves in a world where they live alongside iconic Disney characters, including cherished Disney princesses and notorious Disney villains. In this unique setting, players occasionally have to restore harmony among these characters through a variety of quests.
Players engage in activities like gift-giving, participating in daily tasks, and cooking delicious meals, all of which contribute to strengthening their bonds with these characters. As friendships deepen through these interactions, players unlock character-specific quests that not only allow them to understand each character more intimately but also help these characters adjust to their life in the Valley.

Uncover the magical secrets of Dreamlight Valley by embarking on mysterious quests.
Among these characters is the beloved Disney princess Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Players can unlock both Belle and The Beast by completing the quest “A Prince in Disguise.” Once unlocked, players have the opportunity to enhance their friendship with each character and unlock exclusive rewards. This guide focuses on how players can start and complete Belle’s final Friendship quest, “The Chronicles of the Ancients,” in Disney Dreamlight Valley.
How to Start the Quest “The Chronicles of the Ancients”
The quest "The Chronicles of the Ancients" becomes available when the player reaches Friendship Level 10 with Belle. It is not necessary for the player to have attained a specific Friendship Level with The Beast; however, he must be unlocked to assist later in the quest. Additionally, the player is required to complete Belle’s previous quest, "The Best Mystery Solver in Dreamlight Valley."
How to Complete the Quest “The Chronicles of the Ancients”
After speaking with Belle, she recalls something called the "Chronicles of the Ancients." Suspecting her Journal might contain crucial insights, yet unable to decipher them, she seeks the player's help. The player must go to Beast’s Castle and interact with Belle’s Journal on her desk. This action causes a page to fall and, upon its collection, reveals a memory from the Ruler’s diary with cryptic text.
Discuss the Memory with Belle
The player should speak with Belle about the memory, conveying what information they are able to decipher. The text indicates the Chronicles of the Ancients are on a distant island, far from the Valley. Given this information, the player decides to seek Ariel's help, remembering their first encounter on a similar island.

Seek Ariel's Assistance
Upon visiting Ariel and discussing the matter, she remembers noticing some kind of unreachable object on an island. The player decides to head to Ariel’s island to check it out. To get there, the player must use the raft at Dazzle Beach, located on the small island near Skull Rock.
Locate the Stone Chest
Once on the island, the player heads down the coast until they discover a stone chest encased in rocks, which is, unfortunately, immovable without “considerable strength.” The player informs Belle of the situation, and she concludes that they'll need help. The Beast is identified as the ideal candidate to assist. Ariel suggests gathering items to make a tool for dislodging the chest. The player needs to craft the following materials:
Material | How to Get |
|---|---|
4 Rope | Rope is crafted at a crafting station using 8 Fiber per piece of Rope. Fiber is crafted from Seaweed, with each piece of Seaweed creating 5 Fiber. The player will need to use 7 Seaweed to craft the Fiber needed for all 4 pieces of Rope. |
Iron Ingot is crafted at a crafting station using 5 Iron Ore and 1 Coal ore per Iron Ingot. The player will need 10 Iron Ore and 2 Coal Ore to craft the required 2 Iron Ingot. |
Enlist the Beast's Help
The player returns to the Valley to collect the required materials and speaks with The Beast, who agrees to help. They then return to Ariel’s island, where the Beast's strength frees the chest. Interacting with the chest reveals a scroll which, when collected, unlocks a memory depicting four strange symbols.

Photograph the Mysterious Sigils
Belle, upon trying to open the chest, finds it locked but receives a clue about needing photos of sigils from the memory. The player starts by using the Royal Camera to photograph the first sigil, conveniently located next to the chest on Ariel’s beach.
Although the quest suggests waiting until night to take the photos, the sigils are all easy to find and photograph at any time of day, with no need to wait.
Belle mentions three additional sigils can be found within the Valley and provides clues to their locations. The player must locate and take a photo of the sigil at each location using the Royal Camera.
- Under Icy Peaks: In Frosted Heights, on the stone wall near the entrance to the cave where players can unlock Olaf.
- Near Watery Ruins: In Glade of Trust, on a large stone before the northern lake, north of the stone bridge.
- In the Darkest Part: In Forgotten Lands, on the stone wall near the northern area of the biome, close to the small pillars with purple shards.
Open the Chest
After photographing all sigils, the player returns to Beast’s house, where the chest has been transported from the island. Opening it reveals the Chronicles of the Ancients, though it appears damaged. Belle wishes to repair it, prompting the player to consult the Fairy Godmother.

Assist Fairy Godmother in Repairing the Chronicles
The Fairy Godmother requests specific items to fix the Chronicles, which the player must gather and bring to her. The items needed are:
Material | How to Get |
|---|---|
1 Sapphire | Sapphires can be obtained by Mining in Vitalys Mine. |
10 Gold Ingots | Gold Ingot is crafted at a crafting station using 5 Gold Nugget and 1 Coal ore per Gold Ingot. The player will need 50 Gold Nugget and 5 Coal Ore to craft the required 10 Iron Ingot. Gold Nuggets can be obtained by Mining in the Sunlit Plateau, Frosted Heights, and Forgotten Lands biomes. |
Vitalys Crystals can be obtained by Mining in the Vitalys Mine in Sunlit Plateau biome. | |
Dream Shards can be obtained |
Once the player has all the items in their inventory, they have to return to the Fairy Godmother and speak with her, handing over the materials, so she can repair the Chronicles of the Ancients.
Place the Chronicles Near Merlin’s House
Once the Chronicles of the Ancients has been repaired, the Fairy Godmother gives them back to the player. The player then takes the Chronicles to Belle. She suggests placing it near the Dreamlight Library for communal access, handing it back as a furniture item that, unfortunately, doesn't do anything.
The player is tasked with placing the Chronicles near Merlin’s house and then revisiting Belle. She thanks the player, rewarding them with the Royal Gold Ball Gown and Royal Gold Ballroom Suit outfits and completing the quest "The Chronicles of the Ancients" in Disney Dreamlight Valley.
