Stardew Valley: How To Complete The Goblin Problem Quest
After completing either the community center or Joja Mart paths in Stardew Valley, the Wizard will ask you to get his magic ink from his ex-wife, the Witch. Her swamp can be found in a tunnel near the train tracks, but there are a few obstacles blocking you from getting to her. One of those obstacles is her henchman, who can be bribed with a specific item.

You’ll need to bribe the henchman with a Void Mayonnaise to get past him.
This quest line starts with a short cutscene, which is triggered the first time you go to the railroad after completing the town renovations, either via the community center bundles or Joja Mart. The Wizard asks you to enter a blocked tunnel to retrieve his magic ink, but you need a pendant to open it. Go to the sewers–which you get the key to by donating 60 items to the museum–and speak with Krobus. He directs you to a nearby doorway in the sewer, which leads to the Mutant Bug Lair. Adventure inside to find the talisman.
With the talisman return to the railroad and open up the blocked doorway. Head inside and you will be teleported to the Witch’s Hut in the swamp. Head forward and you will find the path blocked by her henchman, who tells you he can’t risk getting fired by letting you go by.
