The Shadows of the Shard Quests guide you through each stage of this adventure, helping you follow the plot while completing in-game challenges.
Whether you’re a casual player or a seasoned Fortnite fan, these quests add more excitement to the season’s story. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you complete the Shadows of the Shard Quests and understand what’s happening with Daigo and the strange new spires.
Step-by-Step Guide to Shadows of the Shard Quests
1. Visit Supernova Academy to Begin
To kick off the Shadows of the Shard quests, go to Supernova Academy. This newly named location was added in Chapter 6, Season 3, and is located in the northern part of the map.
Look for buildings and activity in that area to know you’re in the right place.
2. Talk to Hope and Learn About Daigo
Inside Supernova Academy, locate Hope, who’s found in the drawing room in the southwestern building. There will be many NPCs here, so look for her specifically using the speech bubble icon on your minimap.
Speak to Hope and choose the “Mask Maker” dialogue option. She tells you that something is wrong with Daigo. He has been affected by the strange spires on the island and has changed after a visit to the Spirit Realm.
3. Meet Kendo at Shogun’s Solitude

Hope suggests you connect with Kendo, who is also investigating the issue. You’ll find Kendo at Shogun’s Solitude, another marked location on the map.
Kendo explains that Daigo’s return from the Spirit Realm might have triggered his strange behavior and the appearance of dark spires.
4. Complete the Brothers of Mask and Blade Quests
Now it’s time to help Kendo by completing his side quests. These are part of the Brothers of Mask and Blade mission chain. Talk to Kendo and select the “Daigo and the Spirit Realm” dialogue option to begin. You’ll need to:
- Damage players with the Spire Rifle (250 total damage)
- Defeat 3 Demon Guards
- Defeat either Daigo or Kor
- Destroy one Scout Spire or Overlord Spire
Each of these tasks moves the story forward and also helps you collect XP.
Tip: If you’re stuck on any of these quests, look for specific in-game guides or videos that walk you through each part. Many players share locations and best strategies for fast completion.
5. Return to Hope with the New Information
Once you complete all of Kendo’s missions, head back to Supernova Academy to report everything to Hope.
She listens carefully and confirms that the team must now take down the spires to save Daigo from this dark energy.
Summary
These quests not only add depth to the Fortnite storyline but also allow players to explore new characters and gameplay mechanics.
By completing the Shadows of the Shard questline, players will feel more connected to Chapter 6 Season 3 and better understand the mystery of the Spirit Realm and the Mask Maker Daigo.
