How to Get Curse Detection Candy Recipe¶

You’ll be able to buy this recipe from Diane for 10 Luna Coins. You’ll only unlock the ability to purchase this recipe when you accept the quest, Who Cursed the Dragon? from Arden. He’ll ask you to investigate his new bag of pepper to see if it’s cursed. You’ll first need to head home, pick up the pepper from your storage, then speak to Aurea about the black pepper.

You won’t really get anywhere with Aurea, so you’ll need to purchase a Curse Detection Candy recipe from Diane.

Curse Detection Candy Recipe¶

To make the Curse Detection Candy, you’ll need Pompom’s Tail Feather and Baked Tinkle Spider.

How to Get Dried Pompom Feather¶

Pompom’s Tail Feathers can be obtained from Pompom birds, which are found in Green Forest Depths. During the day, they hide up in the tops of the trees but at night they’ll descend to the ground and chase glowing bugs around. To harvest a feather from these birds you’ll need to carefully approach them using the tip-toe mechanism. If they see you they’ll fly away and you’ll need to restart the sneaking process. Make sure they’re staring at the bug and not you and you’ll be able to get close enough to grab them and get a feather.

Head out into the Green Forest Depths to find some Pompoms.

How to Get Baked Tinkle Spider¶

To make baked tinkle spider, you’ll need to first harvest x2 tinkle spiders. They can be found hanging down from trees in the Green Forest Depths (day and night). Listen out for faint tinkling sounds and then you’ll be able to spot them. They are very sensitive and will retreat if you get close.

Once you have both ingredients place them in the cauldron and reduce the fire to stage 2 and then set the ladle to stir left.
