Seldon is a character in Breath of the Wild.
Overview
Seldon is a lifelong resident of Hateno Village and serves as a tour guide where he runs Seldon's Village Tours. He can be seen walking around, near the western gate throughout much of the day. He wakes up each morning at 5am and patrols the area all the way until 9pm. At which point he will return home to go to bed.[1] Seldon lives at the Ventest Clothing Boutique, where his daughter Sophie serves as the shopkeeper.
When Link speaks with him, he will offer to give Link a tour of the place.[2][3]
Seldon will walk around to the various locations in town, explaining what their purposes are. He is very excited to show Link around town and will sprint from place to place, at which point he doesn't like being interrupted while he's running.[4][5] He first stops at the East Wind general store, where they have everyday goods.[6] Seldon's second stop is over at the Kochi Dye Shop, where he explain that Link can dye his clothes whatever color he'd like.[7] Next, Seldon will show Link the Ton Pu Inn, where Link can spend the night.[8]
The last stop is at the Ventest Clothing Boutique, where Link can purchase some new attires. Seldon does acknowledge that this is in fact his own store and he encourages Link to buy some new attire before then taking it over to the Kochi Dye Shop to get it dyed.[9] Seldon is exhausted after giving the tour and needs some time to recover.[10]
When it rains during the daytime, Seldon will retreat to the armor shop. However, despite him coming indoors, Link can still speak with him and he'll be willing to give the tour of the town. If during the middle of the tour, the time hits 9pm, Seldon will abandon giving the tour and return home immediately.
