SCROOMS How to Get Forest Spirit's Lyre
Finish Fenna's Mantle of the Songkeeper trials and claim the Grove's Verdant lyre.
Forest Spirit’s Lyre is the Songkeeper’s Grove quest instrument awarded at the end of Fenna’s Mantle of the Songkeeper line. It is not sitting on Julian’s shelf as a normal board purchase. Community routes record a 5,000 Chime offering inside the final dialogue after the Koroom and Eternal Rose steps. Completing the handoff also grants Songkeeper-style title progress and the Mantle Bearer badge track for finishing Mantle of the Songkeeper.
This guide covers Index prep, Fenna’s location, Koroom turn-in, Bloomcall into Heart of Thorns, the rose, the offering, Verdant mutation synergy, and when to equip the Lyre versus shop tools. Pair with instruments, mutations tier list, and Getting Started.
Why the Lyre matters early
Among Grove tools, the Lyre is the stealth power spike. Community cards cite mid Resonance (often III), strong Luck, and the Verdant mutation passive (about ×2 sell price on Verdant tags). That combination outlasts the Adventurer’s Tambourine and stays useful long after you leave the Grove — whenever you specifically farm Verdant rolls. Rank context lives on the instrument tier list.
You still need shop buys (Tamer’s Guitar, Tambourine, Violin) for routine Resonance climbs. The Lyre is the quest crown you should not skip while clearing Grove Index rows.
Prerequisites
- Finish Leo’s tutorial, sell to Julian, and equip the Tamer’s Guitar.
- Unlock the Ocarina via Halden’s five statue respects — Bloomcall will not open without Ocarina songs.
- Fill basic Songkeeper’s Grove Index species entries so Fenna’s Mantle dialogue opens. Keep a Koroom in the backpack; selling the Index-completing copy forces another catch.
- Bank at least 5,000 Chimes for the offering. Farm routes: Make Chimes Fast.
Find Fenna and start Mantle of the Songkeeper
Fenna is the Grove guardian commonly found beneath / behind the waterfall area. Talk until Mantle of the Songkeeper is active. Her objectives typically ask for a held Koroom and later the rose from Heart of Thorns. Confirm counters in the Quest Log.
Hand Fenna the Koroom when prompted. If the quest will not advance, verify you are holding the live creature rather than a sold memory — some players catch a second Koroom just to be safe after Index completion.
Bloomcall and Heart of Thorns
Equip the Ocarina, open Known Songs, and select Bloomcall (learn it from Oswald / florist-adjacent melody steps if it is missing). At the thorn entrance, play the shown notes to open Heart of Thorns. Community Bloomcall inputs vary by UI notation — trust the in-game song sheet.
Run the platform course carefully. Use the interaction prompt to pluck the Eternal Rose (or rose item name shown live). Leaving the course without the rose does nothing. Return to Fenna with the rose in inventory.
Pay the offering and equip the Lyre
After the trials, Fenna’s dialogue asks for the recorded 5,000 Chime offering. Confirm, finish her talk, and check for:
- Mantle of the Songkeeper completion
- Songkeeper title / Mantle Bearer badge progress
- Forest Spirit’s Lyre in your instruments list
Open Equipment Bag → Instruments, equip the Lyre, and close the bag. Walking out of the rose course without finishing the offering conversation will not award the instrument.
Verdant mutation synergy
Equip the Lyre when you want Verdant rolls. Stack Verdant with Melodic / Harmonic / Resonant variants for sell spikes, then vendor extras to Julian or Jane. Deepchord remains better for Runic hours; Mothwing owns Mothdust endgame sells. Mutation math: Mutations Tier List.
Cooking Lucky or Rich teas from Cooking Recipes during Lyre sessions multiplies the value of each Verdant hit. One food effect at a time — do not waste Starlit-tier dishes on Commons.
After the Lyre
- Continue Grove side quests (Elanor’s Floral Flute if still open)
- Push Songtreads and Bluestone for Deepchord — How to Get Songtreads
- Keep the Lyre in the bag as a swap tool for Verdant farms even after Sanctum and Crescendo gear arrives
- Track Ivory Plains prep by banking Chimes rather than selling the Lyre’s income impulsively

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers to the most common SCROOMS questions.
Who gives Forest Spirit's Lyre in SCROOMS?
Fenna, after you finish Mantle of the Songkeeper — Grove Index prep, Koroom turn-in, Eternal Rose from Heart of Thorns, and the Chime offering.
Do I need the Ocarina for the Lyre?
Yes. Heart of Thorns opens with Bloomcall on the Ocarina. Finish Halden's statue quest first if Bloomcall is missing.
Is the 5,000 Chimes a shop price?
No. It is a quest offering inside Fenna's final dialogue. There is no separate vendor card for the Lyre.
What mutation does Forest Spirit's Lyre enable?
Verdant (often called Verdant Touch). Verdant Scrooms sell for a strong multiplier — see the mutations tier list.
Should I get the Lyre before Deepchord?
Yes if you are still in Grove content. The Lyre is a Grove quest reward; Deepchord comes later after Pell in Bluestone Caverns.
