Making of a Monarch quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

"The Making of a Monarch" is the final quest that can be unlocked through raising Friendship with The Lion King’s Scar. This quest becomes available when the player reaches Friendship Level 10 with this iconic Disney villain. The player can raise their Friendship with Scar by giving him his favorite gifts daily, serving him meals when he shows up to Chez Remy, and by performing tasks throughout the valley with Scar as their companion. The player must also complete his previous Friendship quest, "The Circle of Life," available at Friendship Level 7.

How To Complete The Quest "The Making Of A Monarch"

In the first part of "The Making of a Monarch," Scar praises the player’s efforts in restoring the Sunlit Plateau and decides that he wishes to share a meal with them. However, he leaves the preparations to the player, who is tasked with cooking two specific dishes for their little dinner party. To complete th quest, the player must head to a cooking station and craft the following dishes:

Bring the Meals to Scar in His Cave

Once the player has prepared both of these dishes, they need to meet with Scar inside his cave. Hand over the dishes and he immediately expresses his dismay. He had been hoping that their little celebration would break a curse placed on him by the player and return a special trinket that was taken from him. Alas, he was mistaken, and the player offers to speak with Merlin to see what he can do about this curse.

Merlin suggests that the player continue to lead by example by showing Scar how to show care for the residents of the kingdom, like any good leader would. Merlin asks the player to craft two Sunbird Feeders and place them in the Sunlit Plateau. To craft both Sunbird Feeders, the player will need to gather the following materials:

  • 20 Cotton - Grown from seeds or purchased from Goofy's Stall in Sunlit Plateau

For the next part of this, the player needs to locate and feed two Sunbirds in the Sunlit Plateau. Sunbirds love flowers, and while the player can feed them any flowers for the quest, each Sunbird does have a favorite flower that will raise their Friendship toward unlocking them as a companion pet. Sunbirds are very easy to approach and feed, and here are each Sunbird's favorite flowers:

  • Emerald Sunbird - Green Passion Lily, gathered in Frosted Heights
  • Golden Sunbird - Sunflower, gathered in Dazzle Beach
  • Orchid Sunbird - Orange Houseleek, gathered in Sunlit Plateau

After feeding the Sunbirds, head back to Scar, then follow him to his Cave to learn if all efforts have broken the curse. Scar initially believes the curse has not yet been broken, but suddenly a Magic Mirror Shard appears. Return the shard to Scar, reuniting him with his lost trinket, and completing the quest “The Making of a Monarch.” The player will receive the Volcanic Stove furniture item which can be placed outdoors and used as a cooking station.
