Guide to completing the Serenade to a Great Fairy side adventure in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Learn how to find Tera and upgrade your armor.
Alright, so you're looking to get those sweet armor upgrades from the Great Fairy Tera in Eldin? Awesome! This is a side adventure called "Serenade to a Great Fairy," and it's pretty straightforward once you know what to do. We'll need to get a musical troupe to her fountain, but first, there are a few things you need to sort out.
Walkthrough
- 1Start the Quest: First things first, you need to find the music troupe. Head to the Woodland Stable, which is located near Pico Pond in southern Eldin. You'll see them performing there. Chat with the troupe, and they'll tell you that the Great Fairy Tera has gone into hiding. This conversation kicks off the "Serenade To a Great Fairy" side quest.
- 2Prepare Your Horse: Before you can move the troupe, you need a few things ready. Make sure you have a horse, and importantly, you'll need to earn three Pony Points. You get these points by using stables – basically, the more you use them, the more points you rack up. Once you have three, redeem them at a Stable Ledge to get the Towing Harness.
- 3Repair the Wagon: Now, head back to the stable manager. Talk to them to equip your horse with the Towing Harness you just got. Next, you'll need to find a wagon. There's usually one nearby, often with some wheels missing. You'll need to grab two wheels from a shed close to the stable and attach them to the wagon's axle. Line them up just right so they fit properly.
- 4Escort the Troupe: With the wagon repaired, it's time to move the performers. Detach the wagon from wherever it's stuck (sometimes it's on a rock). Now, walk your horse over to the wagon. Use your Ultrahand ability to attach the Towing Harness to the wagon. After that, speak with Mastro, the leader of the troupe, and tell him it's time for them to board the wagon.
- 5The Journey: Hop on your horse. You'll need to follow a short road leading to the Great Fairy Fountain. Here's the catch: your horse will move slower than usual, and you won't be able to use its dash. You absolutely *must* stay on the road. If you tip the wagon over, you'll have to start this part all over again.
- 6Reach the Fountain: Keep following the path carefully. Once you reach the bridge leading to the Great Fairy Fountain, the troupe will disembark. A cutscene will play, showing Tera awakening. She'll then give you some info about her sisters and, more importantly, offer to upgrade your armor for a fee. The music troupe will then relocate to the stables near other Great Fairy Fountains, ready for your next adventure.
Tips
- Pay close attention to steering the wagon. It's easy to bump into things and tip it over, so take your time.
- Make sure your horse is equipped with the Towing Harness *before* you try to attach it to the wagon.
- If you're having trouble finding the wheels, check the nearby shed at the stable – they're usually there.
Upon completion, Great Fairy Tera will awaken and offer armor upgrades. She will also tell you the locations of her three sisters.
