Alices Poem
The poem Alice found among her things appears to be the first clue of a treasure hunt. She would like your help figuring out where it leads.
Mimsy Were the Borogoves – First Clue:
Long ago, I hid a treasure, and not to forget, I penned these clues:
Find a place of sunbaked pleasure, where one can gaze on watery views.
Tally-ha! Alice, sharpen your gaze! Bordering the Glade, all the days,
A bottle shall tell the next phase.

A Dark Cavern
The second poem wants you to find a “dark cavern”. There are several in Dreamlight Valley, but the correct one is the Mystical Cave.

The Fake Mome Raths
As Alice steps inside the Mystical Cave, she starts to remember what she setup here. WALL-E helped her plant the pretty flowers. These flowers are very brittle, so you don’t want to step on them, unless…
Yes, she remembers. If you water them, they will soften up and not break when you walk through them. That’s how you can get to the bottom of the Cave!!
Quest Task: Talk to Alice.
Quest Task: Water each group of False Mome Raths as you descend to the bottom of the cave.

Another Poem is tucked inside the bottle. Show it to Alice.

Fearsome Jabberwock, friend of dark, holds your treasure in a house of bark!
