45. Shrine Quest: The Stolen Heirloom (Kakariko Village)



This is a story quest that I bet most players don't find, because it's gated behind some other quests in Kakariko, that are also hard to find. This is the quest that finally deals with that glowing Ball, next to Impa, that you're not allowed to touch, even though you've wanted to so bad, for the past 100 hours, when the heck is Paya gonna let you touch it, it's clearly meant for Link, come on Paya I need to touch that ball with everything I have.

(Big Joke points for Paya, love that character a lot.)

The gameplay of the quest is pretty on-rails, it's much more about the story, and the Surprises during it. You keep having to do forced stealth, to follow suspicious villagers at night, only to find out they were not the thief, even though the game intentionally made them look ridiculously suspicious.

Then, it is revealed what is really going on, and honestly I thought it was a pretty good dark twist, for such a random obscure story in the game, I was fairly impressed. It ends up doing a really good job of building out more Lore of the Yiga clan.

Lastly, it doesn't overstay it's welcome, it gets all of this done very quickly. I like Breath of the Wild because you don't get stuck in on-rails story sequences much. Hiding one like this, and making me get invested first, made it totally more fun.
