Hades wants to prove he is a natural leader, and the “Yes, Your Lugubriousness” quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley puts that claim to the test across three of the Valley’s businesses. You play the role of supervisor and minion while the Lord of the Underworld tries his hand at running Chez Remy, selling a potion, and managing Scrooge McDuck’s shop. Each attempt ends in flames, and your job is to keep things from burning down while collecting his pay.

Prerequisites to start the “Yes, Your Lugubriousness” quest
The quest will not appear until several characters and friendships are in place. Confirm each requirement below before you talk to Hades, or the leadership conversation will not unlock.
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Characters unlocked | Ursula, Mother Gothel, Vanellope, and Flynn |
| Hades friendship | Friendship level 4 or higher |
| Other progress | Enough story progress with Scrooge McDuck and Remy |
You can confirm the quest’s status at any time from the Quest log in the main menu. Once everything is met, speak to Hades to begin.

Hades’ first idea is to run Chez Remy and serve his own Grecian Baked Fish. Talk to Remy first to convince him to hand over the kitchen for a short time, then collect two of each ingredient below.
| Ingredient | Where to get it |
|---|---|
| 2 Salt | Fishing in Everafter’s Waters (not ripples) |
| 2 Elysian Grain | Goofy’s stall in The Elysian Fields |
| 2 Olives | Foraged in The Elysian Fields or The Fiery Plains |
| 2 Ambrosia | Goofy’s stall in The Elysian Fields |
| 2 Stygian Mudskipper | Fishing orange ripples in The Elysian Fields, The Fiery Plains, The Statue’s Shadow, or Mount Olympus |
If you want the recipe yourself, check Remy’s house for the Grecian Baked Fish recipe book and use it from your inventory to learn it. This is optional, since Hades does the cooking.

Run Chez Remy and put out the grease fires

Dress as a salesperson in black and blue
The next task moves Hades into sales, and he wants you dressed like a proper minion in his colors. You need an outfit that is formal and uses black and blue.

Find Hades’ wages in The Bind

Run Scrooge’s shop and extinguish the final fires

How to confirm the quest is complete
The quest closes out the moment you finish the last conversation with Hades outside Scrooge’s shop. You will see the Storybook Vale quest mark off as completed in your Quest log. If it does not finish, the most common reasons are missing fires at one of the three locations, an outfit that still fails the black-and-blue requirement, or not having reeled in the quest object from the orange ripples in The Bind.
With all three business attempts behind you, Hades walks away having learned a few hard lessons about customer service, and you wrap another quest in the Storybook Vale.
