  • 4 Night Shards: Learn how to obtain these in the linked guide.
  • 6 Cotton: Buy it from the Sunny Plains, or purchase cotton seeds and plant them yourself.
  • 8 Mushrooms: Collect these in the Glade of Trust.

Once you have all the ingredients, head to the workbench, select the Potions and Enchantments tab, and craft the Arachnid Rejuvenation Potion.

Step 7: Pour the Potion into the Cauldron

Return to Jack’s house and hand him the Arachnid Rejuvenation Potion. Jack will then ask you to pour it into the cauldron, which is conveniently located in his house. Once you’ve completed this task, Sally will be unlocked and ready to join your valley!

Step 8: Greet Sally and Increase Your Friendship

Now that Sally has arrived, head over to the fountain to greet her. From here, you can have a few conversations with her to start building your friendship. The more you chat and help Sally with her tasks, the higher your friendship level will become.
