In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, players will meet dozens of characters throughout their journey. Zelda isn't the only person in need of help in the kingdom of Hyrule; there are also various NPCs that will ask for Link's help with their day-to-day lives and will even often reward him if he takes his time to do so.

This guide will talk about Juney, an NPC in Tears of the Kingdom, that will give Link some Rupees if he manages to successfully find and return her handcrafted Sand Seal stuffed toys on time.

Juney's Sand Seal Toys Encounter

Juney is an NPC in Tears of the Kingdom, and her main goal is to give her handmade Sand Seal stuffed toys to schoolchildren. She can be found traveling through Hyrule and practicing her lines for her big moment. She can be found near several main roads, and it is likely that players will have their first encounter with her near Sahasra Slope Skyview Tower when heading to Kakariko Village or near Lindor's Brow Skyview Tower when traveling to Rito Village.

Link can go up to her and ask her what she's doing; this will scare her, causing her to scream out and consequently startle her horse as well. As a result, all ten of her stuffed animals will fly out of the cart.

How To Gather All Sand Seal Toys

The player can either decide to help Juney or simply move on. If they'd like to help, she will ask for a 20 Rupee deposit to make sure that Link doesn't keep any of the seals for himself. Juney will give the player three minutes to gather all ten Sand Seal stuffed toys and get them onto her cart. The Sand Seals must be put away properly so that they won't fall off the cart when it starts moving.

To move the stuffed animals, the player will have to use Link's Ultrahand ability. Regardless of the location where Link finds Juney, it will be quite difficult to grab and put away each toy individually. The best strategy to finish the task on time and avoid losing money is to grab each toy and attach it to the closest one around, and then take them all to the cart at once.

Before agreeing to give Juney the deposit, the player should check their surroundings to see where the stuffed animals landed. This will make it easier to search for them on a timer, and if they land in the water, it'll also allow them to place platforms to reach those that ended up farther away and are out of reach.

Players will have to be careful with how they attach the various toy stuffed animals together because they need to fit into the cart. When dragging them onto the cart, a number will appear on the top right corner of the screen, displaying how many are properly on it. Fortunately, when they let go, those that aren't fitting right will detach and fall off, so gamers can simply reattach them at a better angle.

Gamers that are still having a hard time with this quest should consider making a Speed Up elixir.

Once finished, Juney will reward the player with a Silver Rupee, which is worth 100 Rupees. Gamers can redo this mission as many times as they'd like to quickly increase their Rupees in the early game.
