The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom contains a variety of different quests. Players will need to complete the story quests to finish the game, but there are also a variety of shrine quests, side quests, and more. One side quest chain takes place at the Typhlo Ruins Skyview Tower base, located at coordinates 0338, 3123, 0174.

To complete these quests, Link will need to help an NPC study the ruins with four plaques with riddles on them. Each of the four riddles are connected with the four Sages, so players will have had to complete all four dungeons with the four main modern champions.

Investigate at Thyphlo Ruins

At the beginning of the game, there won't be any slabs with riddles on them. As players complete the four main Temples in Tears of the Kingdom, a new slab will appear at the base of the Tower. Interacting with one of these will give players one of the quests below.

After players complete Riju's quest chain to complete the Lightning Temple, The Long Dragon Quest will become available in the Typhlo Ruins. To start this quest, just chat with the NPC at the base of the Tower, Kazul. He will hire Link to help figure out the riddles of the Ruins, and then will tell Link to read the slab, which reads: "Display the power of the Sage of Lightning at the end of the long dragons that protects the mountain of death."

If players head over to the edge of the ruins that faces Death Mountain, they will find a carved dragon head looking toward it. Follow its body along the edge of the muck and around to 0416, 3158, 0174. Once there, interact with Riju's avatar and use an arrow to aim her lightning powers at the square of stone in this location. A room will rise from the ground, giving players a few Topaz.

The Corridor Between Two Dragons

When players finish the Fire Temple and get Yunobo's vow, they can finish the Corridor Between Two Dragons Quest. Once the quest is acquired by reading the slab at the base of the Tower, head to 0175, 3093, 0174. There, Link will find a row of columns that make a straight line. Fire Yunobo down it and another room will lift from the ground.

The Owl Protected by Dragons

Once players have the Rito Tulin's powers, they can find the slab with this riddle on it: "Display the power of the Sage of Wind to the owl protected by many dragons."

This owl is located at 0365, 3059, 0175. Use the wind power over the square tile of stone there. The room will rise, and players can move on to the last of these riddles: the Six Dragons.

The Six Dragons

The Six Dragons requires players to have completed Sidon of the Zora's quest chain at the Water Temple. The Six Dragons are located at 0185, 3181, 0174. The heads are all situated together in a rough circle. Interact with Sidon to get the water bubble around Link, then charge and spin attack by holding Y then releasing it in the center of the dragon heads.

After all four of these quests are complete, head back to Kazul. He will direct players to another room that has risen from the ground. Head down into the underground location, and Kazul will follow Link down. Interact with the slab to have Kazul read it out loud.

After he's done reading, he will give Link a few tokens of his appreciation: a Zonai Charge, a diamond, and a battery. Interact with the treasure chest to get the Dusk Claymore weapon. This will complete the whole quest chain of the Typhlo Ruins in Tears of the Kingdom.
