Every character has a role to play inDisney Dreamlight Valley, and Merida is no exception. Her skill set is unique and stunning when she sets a lofty goal, but there are some who question her expertise. As the two of you grow closer, you’ll have to settle some disputes between her and the other villagers.

When Flynn tries to give Merida archery advice, she takes it as an insult. Smoothing things over between the two will take some work, but as the ruler of the Valley, it’s up to you to make sure everyone lives in relative harmony again.

Where To Find The Wanted Posters

Upon reachingfriendship level four with Merida, you’ll find that she’s in quite the sour mood. Apparently,Flynn tried to give her some pointerswhen she was practicing with her bow–and she’s livid. She asks if you cango talk some sense into himwhile she calms down.

When you find him, Flynn’s on edge. He was just trying to help, but it wasn’t taken the right way. Merida lashed out and broke into his home. Shestole his stash of wanted posters and put them upall around his house.

They never get his nose right, and it bothers Flynn to no end. He asks if you cantake them all down. Head over to his house andcollect all fiveof the wanted posters, thenbring them to Merida. When you confront her, she laughs it off.

How To Make Persimmon Sour Fondue

To try and get the pair to get along again, Merida suggests hosting a feast. So long as you do all the cooking, she’ll get her home ready. She gives you therecipe to make Persimmon Sour Fondue, and you’ll need to make two bowls of it.

The ingredients can befound on trees around the Bind. Grab a handful ofboth persimmons and sour berries, then go to your stove and mix them together. To make the dish, you’ll have to putone persimmon and one sour berry bunchinto the pot.

Once you’ve madetwo bowls of Persimmon Sour Fondue, head to Merida’s cottage andwatch an argument unfoldbetween the two.

If the conversation won’t trigger,try restarting your game! This is a known bug.

With all this aggression, there’s only one way to settle matters safely: with an archery contest!

The game will freeze and/or crash, as this is a known bug as well.

Once you’ve gathered everything,craft two of the archery targetsat your Crafting Station. Bring them to Merida, thenfollow her to the Fairy Tale Trial in the Wild Woodsso she can set everything up.

Inside the Trial,head to the main chamberwhere other villagers have gathered to witness the event.Talk to Merida and Flynnto get started.

After Flynn takes his shot,take a commemorative photowith him to memorialize his accuracy.

When it’s Merida’s turn, something is off.Investigate the targetto see why she missed the goal by so much. It seems thata magnet has been placed insideher target! Who could have put it there?

Confront Flynn about the sabotageand disqualify him from the event. He’s disappointed that he didn’t get to demonstrate his signature trick, but understands. Merida, however, is furious.

She’s livid that he cheated and sets her mind on defeating him once and for all. When you talk to her, she decides topull off Flynn’s trick shoton her own.Retrieve the arrowto show Flynn, then watch the pair resolve their differences.

While they may not see eye to eye, Flynn and Merida are able to clear things up and move on. It looks like the beginning of a tumultuous friendship!
