The Great Skyland view will play an important role in the later part of the game. It not only serves as the tutorial area but also is where you can get the Legend of the Great Sky Island side quest from Steward Construct in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
During this side adventure, you must light three consecutive bonfires within the given time limit to receive a Zonai Fabric for customizing the Glider at the Hateno Village. However, you can’t touch the ground during this time. Below is how you can start and complete this quest in Zelda: TotK.
Talk to Construct atop the Temple of Time
You need to make your way to the top of the Temple of Time to get the Legend of the Great Sky Island side adventure. Once you reach the location marked on the map below, speak with the Steward Construct. The coordinates are (0452, -0910, 1446).
Keep in mind that there is a prerequisite quest here to complete beforehand. You need to first complete Restoring the Zora Armor before going to the temple as you will need Zora Armor to complete this quest. Stock up on fire fruits or bomb flowers in addition to arrows.
Once you talk to the Steward Construct, he will change the time to 7 am and raise some islands with waterfalls.
Ignite three Bonfires
The important thing to note here is that you have a time limit to complete the Legend of the Great Sky Island quest.
You will be given a total of 12 minutes (12 hours in-game time) to successfully lighten three bonfires. However, the other stipulation is that you cannot touch the surface, adding another layer of difficulty to it.
Therefore, the best option here is to use your Bow while in the air to shoot the bonfires. Below, we have explained where you can find each of the three bonfires to shoot.
You can ride the waterfalls with Zora Armor to restore your stamina and extend your flight.
First Bonfire
Make your way to the left side of the temple to reach the location of the first bonfire. Glide towards the three waterfalls in front of you and shoot the bonfire from the air to ignite its flame.
Second Bonfire
Glide left from the first Bonfire and go through the large cloud on the way. Make your way to the three waterfalls below. Climb the middle waterfall and find the Bonfire behind it. Shoot the bow to lighten it up.
Third Bonfire
Visit the eastern part of the Island and reach the frigid area. Simply glide forward after lighting up the second bonfire. Climb up the first waterfall ahead, then glide to the other waterfall and climb it as well. You will find the Bonfire below on the edge. Shoot the bonfire with the bow and lighten it.
Quest Reward
Once all three bonfires are ignited, return to the top of the Temple of Time and talk to Steward Construct. This will complete the Legend of the Great Sky Island quest in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and you will be rewarded with the Zonai Fabric. You can visit Kochi’s Dye Shop at Hateno Village to apply this fabric to your paraglider.
