Quest Giver Koyin
Location Hateno Village
Reward Fresh Milk ×10

"The Sheep Rustlers" is a Side Quest in Breath of the Wild.[1]

Overview[]

At Hateno Pasture in Hateno Village, Link can encounter Koyin, who says that she will make someone pay.[2] She rudely asks Link what he wants,[3] badgering him for acting clueless.[4] However, when she realizes that Link is harmless, she apologizes for her behavior and explains that she has been on edge lately.[5] Monsters have been coming to the Pasture and stealing the Highland Sheep, depleting their numbers.[6] With this, the Side Quest begins.

At Hateno Beach, Link will encounter a Monster Stronghold consisting of seven monsters,[7] six Bokoblins and a single Moblin. In addition, there are two Highland Sheep that are kept in a makeshift pen. Link must defeat all of the monsters for Koyin.[8] After this, Link will be able to open their Treasure Chest, which contains a Ruby.

Back at Hateno Pasture, Koyin notes that the Highland Sheep have calmed down now that they are no longer in danger.[9] She asks Link if he was the one who handled the monsters,[10] revealing that she had a suspicion.[11] As a reward, she gives Link 10 Fresh Milk.[12] Koyin remarks it will be nice to sleep at nice without worrying about the flock,[13] and she sheepishly invites Link to come back and speak to her at any time.[14] This completes the Side Quest.

Objectives[]

Stage Description
1 A shepherd in Hateno Village named Koyin is worried that monsters will make off with her flock of sheep.

According to her, the monsters in question congregate at Hateno Beach. She won't breathe easy until every last monster there is defeated.
2 You defeated every last monster lurking on Hateno Beach! The village is safe for sheep at last.

Go tell Koyin in Hateno Village that the monsters will trouble her flock no more.
Complete You told Koyin that you cleared out the monsters living on Hateno Beach. In return, she gave you a handsome reward.

You feel like you're getting along quite well with Koyin now! Maybe?

Trivia[]

  • When Link first arrives in Hateno Village, he can read the bulletin board at the center of town to see a message from Koyin, asking for someone to deal with the monsters on Hateno Beach.[15] After the Side Quest is completed, it changes to a message thanking him.[16]
