Crisis at Hyrule Castle

Crisis at Hyrule Castle is a Main Quest found in Tears of the Kingdom.

Overview

  • The Crisis at Hyrule Castle quest is given to Link after Link arrives at the Lookout Landing and speaks with Purah. The quest is part of the larger, Find Princess Zelda quest. Purah believes that Zelda called out to Link from underground and she tasks Link with joining the search to find Zelda.
  • Link must travel to the area just outside Hyrule Castle, where he meets with Captain Hoz on top of the First Gatehouse. Here Link, along with Hoz and Toren, will see Zelda in the distance. However, only after a brief moment, Zelda will float into the air, transform into light, and fly away. This causes the search party to pull back and Hoz encourages Link to inform Purah of what happened.
  • Link can return to Purah and inform her of what happened at Hyrule Castle. She has some ideas, but tells Link that he first needs to upgrade his Purah Pad. She tells Link to visit her at the Lookout Landing Skyview Tower.
  • After arriving at the Skyview Tower, Purah and Josha will activate the Tower, as well as all the Skyview Towers in the Overworld. They then need Link to hold the Purah Pad over the terminal. After doing so, Purah will then ask Link to volunteer to gather the map data. She will then give Link the Paraglider. Link can then examine the floor, which will launch him into the air, where he can scan the map data of the area.
  • After gathering the map data, Purah will then quest Link with investigating phenomena in four regions of Hyrule. This will begin the next Main Quest object, Regional Phenomena.
