"From the Ground Up" is a Side Quest in Breath of the Wild.[citation needed]

Overview

From the Ground Up is centered around helping Hudson build Tarrey Town in the Akkala Region.

Objectives

Stage Description
1 Hudson, Bolson Construction's veteran carpenter, has departed for the Akkala region to expand the business.

Akkala is far to the north of Hateno Village. If you happen to be passing by, stop in and pay Hudson a visit.
2 You bumped into Hudson in the Akkala region, and it sounds like he plans on building a town as part of Bolson Construction's expanison. He even has a name picked out—it will be known as Tarrey Town. That said, he is missing a few things required to make a town.

You know, small things—like lumber.

Bring him 10 bundles of wood to get him started.
3 You brought Hudson enough wood to get him started, but now he needs to break the boulders scattered across the future site of Tarrey Town. He's asked you to find a Goron strong enough to help out.

According to the Bolson Construction hiring guidelines, you need to seek out a Goron whose name ends in "son." The guidelines are unusually specific about this.
4 Greyson the Goron has moved to Tarrey Town, and his younger brother Pelison tagged along for the ride.

Pay the town a visit to make sure they arrived safely, and check in with Hudson while you're there.
5 Greyson and Pelison arrived safely in Tarrey Town and got right to work. Greyson is breaking apart the boulders, and Pelison is selling the ore they find within.

Hudson wants to build some more buildings, but he needs more material. Twenty bundles of wood should hold him over for this next bunch of buildings.
6 You delivered more wood to Hudson.

But now he needs someone who can mend his work clothes. He wants you to find a Gerudo skilled at sewing, but remember the stipulation in the Bolson Construction hiring guidelines: the Gerudo's name must end in "son."
7 A Gerudo by the name of Rhondson has moved to Tarrey Town.

Pay the town a visit to make sure she arrived safely. Check in with Hudson while you're there.
8 Rhondson arrived safely in Tarrey Town and got right to work. She is not only mending work clothes—she also opened up an armor shop!

Hudson wants to build more buildings, but he's run out of materials once again.

Another 30 bundles of wood should cover him for now.
9 You brought Hudson more wood.

His next goal is to open up a general store and trade routes, and he thinks a Rito merchant would be perfect for the job.

Find a Rito with the know-how to manage a shop and the connections to set up trade, and of course, make sure his or her name ends in "son."
10 A Rito by the name of Fyson has moved to Tarrey Town to run the general store.

Pay the town a visit to make sure he arrived safely, and check in with Hudson while you're there.
11 Fyson arrived safely in Tarrey Town and put the experience he gained from running his family's shop to good use. He opened up a general store!

Hudson wants to build another batch of buildings, but he needs more material.

Bring him another 50 bundles of wood.
12 You brought Hudson enough wood!

And now, as it turns out, Hudson is engaged to Rhondson! Can you believe it?

They want to hold a ceremony, so he wants you to find a Zora who can officiate. Even though this Zora technically won't be working for Hudson's company, he would be much more comfortable if the Zora's name ended in "son."
13 A former Zora priest by the name of Kapson has moved to Tarrey Town!

Pay the town a visit to make sure he arrived safely and to see what other shenanigans Hudson has been up to. There's always something going on with that guy!
14 Kapson, a Zora and former priest, arrived safely in Tarrey Town and began making preparations for the wedding ceremony.

Hudson wants to invite Bolson and Karson to his wedding but he's too busy with preparations of his own. Go to Hateno Village to invite Bolson and Karson.
15 Bolson and Karson departed for Tarrey Town.

All that's left now is to return to the town yourself and enjoy Hudson and Rhondson's wedding ceremony!

Head back to the town and look for Hudson.
16 Hudson and Rhondson's wedding was a shining beacon in an otherwise dark, dangerous world.

Rhondson was a little taken aback by a few of the vows, but everything worked out fine and is in perfect compliance with Bolson Construction's guidelines.

It's only polite to give your blessing to the lovely couple who just vowed their undying love, so go talk to Hudson.
Complete Hudson and Rhondson are happily married, and Tarry Town is enjoying great prosperity.

As a sign of appreciation for bringing the town together and as compensation for your work, Hudson gave you a hefty amount of gems that were unearthed during the town's construction.

You wished the couple eternal happiness before heading on your way.
