“"A Dryad dreams near a crystal lake. She cannot be seen unawares - asleep or awake. Those who can see beyond that which is shown, will find her at the heart of her Spellbound home."”
Sweetlopek, Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope

Finding the Dryad[edit]

“Always talking, hmm? You STILL fail to understand the devastating consequences of your profession. Do you have any IDEA what it takes to create a seed from which a tree will grow? Of course not! Then I shall show you.”
Dryad, Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope

The heroes can find Sweetlopek inside the Spellbound Woods after completing Bury the Hatchet, who needs help finding the Dryad. Sweetlopek tells of a folk tale, which describes that the Dryad is hidden, and must be found using Beep-0's Scan Power. The heroes find the Dryad, along with a Spark known as Zephyrdash, by a big tree close to the lake. They both wake up, and the Dryad gets angry at Sweetlopek, thinking that he simply does not care that his actions are hurting her. She shows Sweetlopek her nest, which is taken over by Darkmess.

Nesting Instinct[edit]

Main article: Nesting Instinct

The heroes must clear out the Darkmess in a battle, known as Nesting Instinct. In the battle, the heroes must protect the Dryad's nest for 8 turns. After all 8 turns have passed and the nest is still standing, the battle is won.

Finding the seeds[edit]

Dryad: After their genesis in the nest, each seed gets their start in life here in my nursery.
Sweetlopek: It's... it's beautiful. I had no idea. Each tree is like a dear friend to you, isn't it?
Dryad: Perhaps you're not just a "hatchet man" for the powerful pumpkin spice producers industry, after all.”
Dryad and Sweetlopek, Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope

After the Darkmess is cleared out, the Dryad realizes that the seeds are not in her nest, and shows Sweetlopek her nursery. Sweetlopek then realizes his that the Dryad really cares about the trees. Zephyrdash then tells the heroes to look for the 3 missing seeds, which are close to red flowers. One of the seeds is behind a gate, another seed is in a tree, while the third seed must be revealed using Beep-0's Scan Power. After all of the seeds are returned, the Dryad uses her magic to make them sprout. Sweetlopek then apologizes to the Dryad, claiming to never touch his axe again. The Dryad then has a solution: cutting down the dead trees to use for the Sweetie Pie Honey Snookums Bridge, which will make way for new trees. Sweetlopek then tells the Dryad to come with him to Paletteville, to dedicate the bridge to the Dryad, and to tell everyone of their new arrangement.

Falling in love[edit]

“What dares eclipse and cloud the sun? Two hearts that beat against the wolves of time! When mine eyes are blinded, and so are thine. With crooked back, and weathered skin. We breathe our last - hands intertwined. And still, and still the sun doth shine.”
Woodrow, Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope

Everyone then gets to Paletteville, where Woodrow tells the heroes that they have both restored the Sweetie Pie Honey Snookums Bridge and harmony between worldly state and glorious nature, referring to Sweetlopek and the Dryad. They then fall in love, while Woodrow gives out an uplifting poem, which JEANIE feels something, and causes Beep-0 to cry. The Quest is then complete, and Zephyrdash joins the heroes on their adventure.
