Walkthrough

You will be asked a series of riddles that you must solve. Drop the correct item onto the leaf to solve each riddle. You can then pick it back up again to keep it.

The first riddle refers to an Apple (Sensor+ #162). These can be found all over Hyrule if you do not already have any on you.

The second riddle refers to a Fortified Pumpkin (Sensor+ #191). These are grown in Kakariko Village. Attempt to pick one up in order to buy one for 20 rupees.

The third riddle refers to a Sunshroom (Sensor+ #177). These can be found all over as well, particularly in Eldin, or in Gerudo.

The fourth riddle refers to a Voltfin Trout (Sensor+ #054). These can be found in the Zora River, but only if it is raining.

The fifth riddle refers to a Lynel Hoof. Obtain one from killing a Lynel.

After solving the fifth riddle, you will receive a Diamond as a reward.

Tip: If you have done the Slated for Upgrades Side Quest and have the Sheikah Sensor +, and already have a picture of the items needed, you can set it as your Sensor+ target for help in finding one.

Bonus Tip: If you do not already have a picture of the items needed, and if you have done the Sunshroom Sensing Side Quest as well, you can talk to Symin at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab and purchase pictures for your compendium (at 100 rupees each, getting a random picture each time, can buy in bulk if desired) until you have the pictures needed. You can then set one as your Sensor+ target for help in finding one.
