Detailed Walkthrough

At the start of the quest, you’ll need to meet Merlin in his Study and talk to him. He’ll give you a task to Find Flickers using your Hourglass and will give you 3 locations to search. For the first area, you can either go to the Moana, Ratatouille, or WALL-E realms and look for them.

Just run around and use the Hourglass to find where the flickers are. A light will appear in the direction of one so get closer and closer to them until they appear. Then, use your hourglass to get them.

Remember to press the key as fast as possible!

The next area you’ll need to go to is “In Dreamlight Valley where Villagers first arrive from Realms” which is the Plaza area. Go around the Plaza and do the same thing you did before to look for the Flickers.

The last area you’ll need to go to is “On Eternity Isle, in a similar place” which is the Ancients Landing area.

I’m sure the people don’t mind me swinging this hourglass around town!

Once you found all of the Flickers, you’ll need to talk to Merlin again and he’ll open up the door to the Sunken Ruins.

Head inside the Ruins with Merlin and then talk to him, he’ll give you another task of taking pictures of each chamber. The first one is the Mysterious Pedestal in the western chamber, which is shown below covered in rocks.

Not much of a pedestal!

The next one is the set of Musical Notes in the eastern chamber as shown below. This one is easy to find since they stand out.

That has to be a puzzle of some sort!

The last one is the Ancient Computer terminal in the northern chamber which is shown below. This one is a bit harder to find because of how small it is.
