| Quest type | Side adventure |
|---|---|
| Region | Great Plateau and the Depths below it |
| Giver | The Goddess Statue (a mysterious voice) |
| Starts in | Temple of Time Ruins, Great Plateau |
| Requirements | Paraglider from Purah; Ultrahand; Autobuild (from A Mystery in the Depths) is strongly recommended for carrying the eyes; something fiery or warm food to deal with the ice and cold |
| Reward | Your choice of a Heart Container or a Stamina Vessel, and a working Bargainer Statue in the Great Abandoned Central Mine (which also sells the Tunic of the Depths) |
The quest begins either when you free the buried Bargainer Statue at the plateau’s base (breaking the boulders that dam the water south of the Hyrule Field Skyview Tower, near the Gatepost Town ruins) or when you speak to the Goddess Statue in the Temple of Time Ruins. A voice asks you to find its four stone eyes, one near each chasm on the Great Plateau. Throw each eye into its chasm, then carry all four through the Depths to the Bargainer Statue beneath the temple to earn a Heart Container (or a Stamina Vessel).
Walkthrough
Speak to the Goddess Statue
Go to the Temple of Time Ruins at the southern edge of the Great Plateau and talk to the Goddess Statue in the sunlit hall. The voice explains that it speaks from the Depths below and that each chasm on the plateau has one of its eyes nearby. Four points are marked on your map, one by each chasm.
Find the four eyes
Each eye lies next to one of the Great Plateau chasms: North (-665, -1510), East (-452, -1993), South (-933, -2318) and West (-1432, -1993). The north eye sits at the bottom of a pond south of the chasm and can be fished out with Ultrahand; the east eye is behind a wall of boulders, which a Bomb Flower or a rock-fused weapon breaks; the south eye is under a large rock or fallen Zonai ruins that Ultrahand can lift away; and the west eye is encased in large ice blocks at the chasm edge, which you melt with a fire weapon or Fire Fruit (it is cold there, so bring warm clothes or spicy food).
Throw each eye into its chasm
Pick up an eye with Ultrahand, fly or carry it over the chasm and drop it in. The quest updates after every eye you throw, and a marker for each one appears in the Depths. You can do the chasms in any order.
Carry the eyes to the Bargainer Statue
Dive into a chasm to reach the Depths, find the glowing eye where it landed and bring it to the Bargainer Statue in the Great Abandoned Central Mine, around (-776, -1899, -558), directly below the temple. Guides suggest light vehicles for the carry: for the north eye, a Zonai car using the eye as a headlight along the broken road after lighting the Nogukoyk Lightroot; for the east eye, a fan on the back of a minecart; for the south eye, a plane flown toward the mine; and the west eye has a minecart already built for you. Zonai devices lie near each landing spot. Repeat for all four.
Place the eyes and choose your reward
Stand in front of the statue and use Ultrahand to push each eye into its socket on the carved face. When the last one is in, the statue thanks you and offers a reward. Take the Heart Container or the Stamina Vessel, whichever you want most. Afterwards you can link it to other Bargainer Statues in the Depths to widen what you can trade for Poes.
Rewards
- A Heart Container or a Stamina Vessel, your choice.
- The statue becomes a Bargainer Statue where you can spend Poes on items and armor.
Tips
- Light the Lightroots beneath the plateau chasms first so the Depths are easier to read when you land.
- Keep a fire source, such as a Fire Fruit or a flame weapon, ready for the ice-bound west eye.
