With Eternity Isle’s Ancient Gate unlocked and the Royal Hourglass in your position, you’re one step closer to rescuing Jafar inDisney Dreamlight Valley. However, your work isn’t done yet. The way forward is still blocked by a shattered bridge trapped in time, and you’ll need to find a way to reverse time’s effects if you want to get past it.
The Royal Hourglass is the key to restoring the bridge, but thanks to time passing, it doesn’t have enough power to fix the shattered bridge yet. You’ll need to follow Jafar’s instructions and unlock one of the Hourglass' original abilities if you want to keep moving forward.
How To Unlock Sands In The Hourglass
Sands In The Hourglass is unlocked aftercompleting several prior quests: The Secret of Eternity Isle, The Flying Metal Nuisance, and Goofy’s Give Me A Sign, which is a part of The Secret of Eternity Isle.
To start the quest,take the Royal Hourglass back to Jafarafter finishing The Flying Metal Nuisance, and speak to him again. After telling you about yournew power and new tool, it turns out the shattered bridge can’t be fixed just yet.
The Royal Hourglass is too weak to deal with it, and you’ll need tofind three Time Crystalsin order to restore its full power.
