After completing the Seek Out Impa quest in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, players will receive Locked Mementos, a Main Quest that awards the Camera Rune, Album, and Hyrule Compendium. Additionally, fans that tackle Locked Mementos will have the opportunity to take on Find the Fairy Fountain, a quest that is also worth pursuing. This guide is here to provide more details on completing those two The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Main Quests, and it will highlight some activities players may want to engage with along the way.
To note, it is recommended that players obtain at least one Stamina Vessel before setting out on these quests. Indeed, the additional Stamina will be very helpful for a climbing a tower that fans will encounter as they work through Locked Mementos. Fortunately, there are many Shrines in Breath of the Wild's Dueling Peaks region, which players can complete in order to secure the requisite Spirit Orbs.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Locked Mementos Walkthrough
Upon receiving the Locked Mementos Main Quest, players should head south out of Breath of the Wild's Kakariko Village, cross Kakariko Bridge, and follow the dirt road that is just beyond that bridge to travel eastward. This road will lead players through Fort Hateno and eventually to Hateno Tower, which should be scaled in order to reveal the map of the Hateno region. Again, Stamina upgrades make climbing this tower much easier, and fans should take care to avoid the spikes as they ascend.
Players should now use their new map to travel to Hateno Village. Upon entering the village, fans should activate the Myahm Agana Shrine, which is situated just behind the General Goods Shop, in order to unlock a fast-travel point. Players should then consider spending some time exploring Breath of the Wild's Hateno Village, as there are a variety of vendors and Side Quests within this location.
After a bit of exploration, players should follow the road east through the village and make a left at the fork that they encounter to reach Hateno Ancient Tech Lab. Inside this structure, fans will find Purah and Symin, and they should talk to those characters to receive an errand that centers around transferring a blue flame from the furnace in Hateno Village to the furnace in front of the lab. While this task can be completed with any wooden weapon, the Torch that can be found within the lab makes matters simpler.
With the Torch in hand, players should exit the lab and glide down to the Hateno Village furnace to the west. Fans should then strike the furnace's flame with their Breath of the Wild Torch to set it ablaze, return to the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, and strike the furnace in front to light it. Notably, there are series of lanterns that leads from the Hateno Village furnace, through the town, and up to the lab, and players can turn those lamps into additional sources for the blue flame by lighting them along the way.
Once the lab's furnace is lit, fans should go inside and talk to Breath of the Wild's Purah to obtain the aforementioned Camera Rune, Album, and Hyrule Compendium. Players must now use their new Rune to take a picture of Purah, who will then instruct Link to return to Impa in Kakariko Village. This is a great time to fast travel to the Ta’loh Naeg Shrine, provided that the fan activated it during a previous visit to Kakariko Village, and the Locked Mementos quest will be marked as complete after speaking with Impa.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Find the Fairy Fountain Walkthrough
After resolving Locked Mementos, players should exit Impa's home, descend the stairs, and speak with Pikango near the Goddess Statue. This conversation will ultimately grant the Find the Fairy Fountain Main Quest, and fans should follow Pikango up to the Ta’loh Naeg Shrine once they have received it. From there, players should continue ahead to find the Great Fairy Fountain, which can be unlocked with 100 Rupees in Breath of the Wild.
As a brief aside, Breath of the Wild's Great Fairy Fountains are the way by which players will upgrade their armor. While it is not strictly requisite, fans are advised to take this opportunity to improve their gear, and they should even consider going in search of upgrade materials if they do not have what is needed. Indeed, there are some fairly challenging encounters ahead, and players are more likely to survive them with higher defense.
Once a player is finished addressing their gear, they should activate the Camera Rune, photograph the Great Fairy Fountain, and return to Pikango near the Ta’loh Naeg Shrine. Speaking with Pikango in this position will mark the completion of the Find the Fairy Fountain quest, and the character will now be willing to provide hints that can be used to resolve the Captured Memories quest. Players should not be too concerned about that right now, though, and they should instead focus on freeing the Divine Beasts in Breath of the Wild.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is available for Nintendo Switch.
