The Ultimate Guide to Conquer Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom - Unleashing Dalia's Epic Game Quest

Similar to its predecessor, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom offers an expansive and immersive experience, set in a vast open world. The game retains the original Breath of the Wild map, but with noticeable changes to various locations to reflect the passage of time and the current challenges faced by Hyrule. Familiar villages like Kakariko and Hateno make a return, but with intriguing differences that surprise returning players.

In addition to the captivating storyline, exploration is a crucial element in Tears of the Kingdom. Players are not only encouraged to use new abilities like Ultrahand, but also to unlock the entire map. Shrines, both on the main portion of Hyrule and in new sky sections, are hidden throughout, offering rewarding challenges. Moreover, the game is filled with numerous captivating side adventures and quests to discover, although they may not be immediately apparent or easily found on the map.

One particular mission can be found in Gerudo Town, featuring an NPC known as Dalia. Initially, it is not easily accessible in Tears of the Kingdom, as players must undertake certain tasks before unlocking it. However, completion of this mission, known as the Mysterious Eighth, is a prerequisite. Here is a comprehensive guide to provide players with all the necessary information.

How to Start Dalia's Game in Tears of the Kingdom

This side quest can be found in Gerudo Town, once the region has been saved from the Gibdo infestation.

However, before helping Dalia, players will need to make sure they have the following quests completed:

Gerudo's Regional Phenomena (Main Quest)

The Heroine's Secret

In addition, players should have The Mysterious Eighth started, which can be started right after The Heroine's Secret with Rotana in the Gerudo Shelter.

With the specified conditions fulfilled, there shall be a young lady named Dalia positioned near clay pots in the daylight hours at the northern corner of the town square, further than the fruit stand. As an alternative, players might come across an orb, and if they attempt to engage with it, Dalia will inquire whether they are interested in participating in a game.

How to Complete Dalia's Game in Tears of the Kingdom

The orb is the coveted prize in Dalia's game, an essential item for adventurers aiming to complete The Mysterious Eighth side quest. To claim this reward, players must embark on a quest to locate Dalia's beloved stuffed Sand Seal within the confines of Gerudo Town. However, they only have a mere 90 seconds to accomplish this task. Adding to the challenge, the toy could be hidden in any of the houses within the Gerudo Shelter. Thankfully, prior to commencing the hide and seek event, Dalia provides players with a clue, stemming from a phrase she utters. Here are the potential hiding spots:

Proceed past the shelter and into the caverns to find an exit route, although my mother has strictly forbidden me from venturing there. Head towards the Valley of the Silent Statues beyond the classroom, where you will find the Sand Seal situated close to the entrance.

For those seeking this information, the bed area is the ideal hiding spot. The sleeping quarters near the jail is where you should search, specifically towards the back of the room adjacent to the hand-drawn map displayed on the wall.

"My feet are completely soaked! Oh well." - The seal can be found in the training area next to a small water pool. Players who have been working on The Heroine's Secret side quest may have already been here in search of one of the Stele.

"Could this belong to the soldiers? I need to prepare myself...and push!" - Additionally, players seeking the final clue Tears of the Kingdom will also be directed to the training area. On the opposite side of the training dummies, players should examine the shelf that is built into the wall.
