DDV: Complete Belle’s The Chronicles of the Ancient in Dreamlight Valley

Disney Dreamlight Valley’s Chronicles of the Ancient brings Belle’s friendship arc to a close. It’s a quest packed with resource-gathering tasks, some crafting exercises, and, of course, cryptic hints that aren’t easy to figure out. To complete Belle’s Level 10 friendship quest and become her best buddy, a trapped chest and some scroll symbols must be found in Disney Dreamlight Valley. 

How to Find the Trapped Chest in Disney Dreamlight Valley

In The Chronicles of the Ancient, follow these steps to find the chest on Ariel’s island.

1. Board the raft to Dazzle Beach to head to Ariel’s Island.
2. Head toward the left end of the island until you hit a barrel and some scattered broken logs.
3. To the barrel’s right, a chest will be in between two rocks.

After finding the chest, gather the rope and iron ingots, give them to the Beast, and head back to Ariel’s Island with him.
