Exploring Kakariko Village in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom leads players to a variety of engaging side quests that deepen the lore of Hyrule. Among these historical tasks, A Trip Through History offers players an insightful glimpse into ancient Zonai culture. This quick quest encourages thorough exploration while offering useful rewards for resourceful travelers.
Starting the Quest in Kakariko Village
To begin this quest, travel to Kakariko Village located in West Necluda. Look for a traveling researcher named Bugut, who can often be found walking along the village paths or examining local landmarks. Speaking with Bugut triggers the quest as he shares his desire to examine four specific stone tablets located near the Ring Ruins.
Finding the Four Ring Ruins Tablets
Completing Bugut's request requires Link to inspect four ancient stone slabs scattered across the village ruins. The first tablet is easily found near the eastern entrance of the village, situated right beside a fallen Ring Ruin structure. Follow the central paths to reach the remaining tablets, which sit elevated near cliffsides and surrounding archeological sites.
Reading the Inscriptions and Returning to Bugut
Each stone tablet contains valuable historical notes regarding the Zonai civilization and their ancient beliefs. Interacting with all four slabs ensures that the necessary historical information is cataloged. Once every tablet has been read, return to Bugut to report your findings and finalize the adventure.
Quest Completion Rewards and Elixir Benefits
Upon hearing your report, Bugut rewards Link with three Thunderwing Butterflies for completing the survey. These rare insects can be combined with monster parts at a cooking pot to brew shock-resistant elixirs. These elixirs provide essential protection against electrical damage during challenging battles across Hyrule.
