Who is the Herald, and how do you help him pass on? Step-by-step Mr. Mushroom locations.
Starting Mr. Mushroom’s Quest
This guide will show you how to find Mr Mushroom, but if you’d rather find him by yourself, just read the next section, which explains where to find an in-game resource that hints at his location.
Mr Mushroom can only be found once all of the Dreamers have been killed, so make sure you’ve swatted Herrah, Lurien, and Monomon before you set out to find our fungal friend.

Spore Shroom: Your new favorite charm!
In order to understand his mushroom language, you will need to find and equip the charm Spore Shroom each time you interact with Mr Mushroom, or the interaction won’t count and he won’t move on to the next location. The charm is found in the Fungal Wastes.
Wait, just give me a hint instead.
The tablet is hidden in a secret room inside of a secret area:
A breakable floor nearby Nailmaster Oro’s house will take you to an area with several more breakable floors, and an interactable crack in a wall which leads to a very, very long room. The very bottom of this room holds a large rock containing 420 Geo, and the tileset matches that of the Ancient Basin.
Closer to the top of this long room should be a spot where the Kingdom’s Edge music fades out, and the tileset becomes more generic.
Up and to the right in the above screenshot is the entrance to the secret relic tablet room.
With Spore Shroom equipped, you will be able to read this tablet, which gives hints to the location of Mr Mushroom.
Tablet text:
“Spawn of self, their minds unite,
Aside the source of acid blight,
Aglow in darkest, winding depths,
Winds all howl above fossilstone steps,
Monarchflys in air set still,
To Root’s domain and snail once shrill,
Path of Wyrm, at new lands entered,
There journeys end. The kingdom ventured.”
Mushroom Locations
This is the first place Mr Mushroom appears, right where Cornifer is sitting in the Wastes by Queen’s Station.
Map location:
This location is in the far left area of Kingdom’s Edge, in the room between Isma’s Grove and The Hive. The Tram Pass is required to access this area.
Map location:
Mr Mushroom then appears in Deepnest, in the room where you encounter Galien.
Map location:
You will now have to get to the Howling Cliffs. Mr Mushroom can be found in the house of Nailmaster Mato. (If this is the last thing you are doing before the final boss, I recommend placing a dream gate just outside, as we will be back here one or two more times.)
Map location:
Pop back down to the Ancient Basin, and talk to the mushroom just past the Broken Vessel boss room, right before where the Monarch Wings are acquired.
Map location:
The map says this one’s in Fog Canyon, but the tileset is for QG. Either way, it’s right beneath the Overgrown Mound.
Map location:
Tired of backtracking yet? This is the last one. Dream gate back to the Howling Cliffs, and Mr Mushroom can be found right at the bottom of King’s Pass where the game starts. Talk to him one last time, and he will fly away……

Finishing Up
Happy mushroom hunting!
