Follow this guide to complete the 'A Trip Through History' side quest in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Find all four Zonai slabs around Kakariko Village with ease.
Alright, let's get this 'A Trip Through History' side quest done! First things first, we need to get to Kakariko Village. The easiest way is to fast travel to the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower. Once you're up in the air, glide down towards the northeast. You're aiming for the area around Lantern Lake, which is between the Rikoka Hills and the Pillars of Levia. Keep an eye out for a guy named Bugut near the village entrance. He's the one who kicks things off, telling you about these mysterious Ring Ruins and some Zonai writing. Apparently, there are five stone slabs in total, and he needs your help to find the remaining four because, well, he's got a bit of a fear of heights!
- 1Find Slab #1: Head back to the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower. This time, glide east to find some ruins. You'll need to take out four Bokoblins here. Once they're dealt with, look for a book on a table nearby. That's your first slab!
- 2Find Slab #2: From the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower, glide northeast. You're looking for some wooden structures above Lantern Lake. Up there, you should find an NPC named Gordi. The second book is right next to him.
- 3Find Slab #3: From where you found Slab #2, just glide over to East Hill. Make your way up the mountain, and you'll eventually find a small wooden ramp. Follow that into a little ruin, and you'll find the third book.
- 4Find Slab #4: One more trip to the Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower! Glide down to the Bonooru's Stand area, which is southeast of Kakariko Village. Interact with the final book you find there.
- 5Return to Bugut: Once you've got all four slabs deciphered, head back to Bugut in Kakariko Village and tell him what you've found.
- Don't forget to grab the Giant Brightbloom Seeds from the chest after clearing the Bokoblins at the first slab location.
- The map images in the source are a bit janky, but focus on the descriptions of gliding from the Skyview Tower and heading towards landmarks like Lantern Lake or East Hill.
- Bugut is usually hanging around the main entrance area of Kakariko Village, so he's not too hard to find once you're back.
Once you report back to Bugut, he'll reward you with three Thunderwing Butterflies, and the quest will be complete!
