Quinn...I have to buy the wounded Pegahorn... that's not it
Blessilda...Shrink the Mushroom... I'm assuming in Stone Circle
Raphael...Battle Mural...that's not it
Quinn... honey for the squabbit, I think it's the second quest
Hot Prince... needs souvineers, snowglobes, Dreamless Castle, model train
Owl... help Shellsea...that's not it
Chumblepot's gift for mayor... glass shards minis 13 and 14 in glassworks
Fairy Queen... clear miasma from Gizmotek
So it seems to me it has to be shrinking the mushroom, which needs lots of stuff I don't have so I've been putting it off, Quinn's honey, the prince, or Chumblepot. I found the 3 original orbs it asked for, that's listed in my achievements, but haven't heard anything since. Do I need to get 7 more orbs? Maybe Lucky is hiding some, or the prince has a couple orbs in his pants or something. I haven't fed the Dark Chest in that game, think I'll go do it now just in case it triggers something.
ETA: Well, well, well, I haven't got the Dark Chest open in this game yet. Maybe that's what the fairy is clearing the miasma from.

The dark chest doesn't get you any orbs. You get the dark chest by following the Shelsea quests. But the chest is a resource sucker that doesn't give you coins or experience.
The hot prince is the quest to follow for the orbs.

I didn't have enough energy to follow him very far. He wants stuff I just don't have

You'll get there eventually Wendy! I tried searching in the BFG AK forums. Someone said something about the Fairy Queen quest, but Tirama has played this much more recently than I have so I'd go with her. Yeah. The Dark Chest is a major resource sucker! I just feed it every once in a while. Right now I'm ignoring it because, among other things, it wants Fairy Queen Portraits and I need to find some more of those.

The Fairy queen quests get yu the first three orbs. I think Wendy is past that point.
I like to check the BoomZap forum and read what each update contains and try not to trigger something until I've cmpleted the the stuff in previosu updates. So after I followed the Shelsea quests and discovered that they led to the dark chest, I ignored the chest until I had that shrine up and running. And it doesn't get fed if I need the stuff somewhere else.
Right now it wants glass shards. Too bad, I needed 45 of them to play Chumblepot's mini games and I don't feel like playing Fairy Dragon Nest again in the near future.I also have to play FDN for the iPad game because I need a lot of shards.
And in the PC game, I still can't get those portraits to drop at a reasonable rate at Gobholme, so I can't cash in sets to get those shards. In teh iPad game, I'm holding on to portraits because I'm still waiting to get the Raphael quests for them.

I found the first three orbs the Fairy Queen told me about, but nothing since then. I'm hoping the prince will give me one after I get his snow globes.
I have a hard time with Crookshank portaits, too, and the fairy Queen portrait isn't much easier to get. I remember when I sold Crookshanks for 50 bolgins
My chests seem to want Whispering Lilys and they drop only slightly more than Crookshank or Fairy Queen. Maybe once every 4-6 times. I still need them for quests so the chest is getting ignored for now.
Blessilda needs lilys and snobulb from gnome village to shrink the mushroom, I'm assuming the one in Stone Circle. If I slowly work on getting Gizmotek open in that game (of course I need like 15 Coruscating Dusts and a half dozen radiants) then I can gather that resource while I'm there getting sno bulbs. And pick up some more Kips, too.

After the prince gets the snowglobes, he will be back wanting more stuff, then he'll send you to play cloudspire mini games, and after that he will tell you where to find 3 more orbs. After that, Quinn should appear and his quests lead to more orbs.
You still have a long way to go to get the rest of the orbs.

I'm glad Tirama was able to point you in the right direction Wendy. I did feed the chest to get the first reward because it gave quite a few crystals BUT it had been playing and playing the game between updates so I had a LOT of resources I could dump in there.

I'm sidetracked now. In the game without Gizmotek I need to do minis 13 and 14 in the glassworks. In the game that has Gizmotek opened I've done a quest for games 13, 14, and 15 there, so I'm going to work on opening Gizmo in one of the games and see if I can get the 3 mini quest asked for so I can do fill both of them and only have to play those expensive minis once since shards collections are hard to fill. At least I have plenty to do, even if it is just always finding Coruscating Dusts and Fairy Queen runes. I bought a bunch of dusts for $2000/ea yesterday. I hated to do it, like to keep my auction purchases under $1000, but I needed like 18 of them, and bought half, I still need 9 of them. I figured it was a choice between imaginary money or real , that's how sick I am of getting CDs.

If you open up Gizmo you run teh risk of triggering the Gizmo timed quests and somebody in that series wants glass shards. hy not just ignore the glass shards quest and continue working on getting the orbs?
On my PC game. I just finished the series of quests regarding fundraising for Landsong Village. When did everybody start calling Captain Greg just 'Greg'? And it makes me laugh when the Mayor keeps thanking me and Greg for our work putting together an exhibit - it really sounds like the two of us are an item! NOw if 'Greg' would just stop calling me 'Steward'.
On the iPad I need one more glass shard for Chumblepot so he can make me the diving helmet. But what I really need is to level up so more quests come in. I've been buying Faitas and Namias at auction to complete blueprint sets so I haven't had to play Apricus Plaza that much. Might break down and play that scene to try and level up.
