Team Cece or Team Reede is an important side quest in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom that determines the fate of Hateno Village. This quest is a prelude to the Mayoral Election quest, which will unlock a plethora of activities in the village.
Team Cece or Team Reede quest involves finding Team Reede supporters and swaying them in favor of Cece by bribing them with Hylian Shrooms. However, locating these villagers is a bit of a difficult task.
In this guide, we will help you start this quest and complete it as soon as possible.
How to start Team Cece or Team Reede in Zelda: TotK
To start Team Cece or Team Reede side quest, you need to talk to Cece (3354, -2125, 0121) inside the Ventest Clothing shop. This shop is located on the main road of Hateno Town, opposite Kochi’s Dye Shop.
Once you talk to Cece, she will ask you which team you are rooting for. Select “Team Cece, obviously” as the correct answer. After listening to your answer, Cece will give you 8x Hylian Shrooms and ask you to give them to Reede’s supporters.
This will officially start the Team Cece or Team Reede side quest in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
Villagers Locations in Hateno Village
To complete Team Cece or Team Reede’s side quest, you need to find eight Reede supporters and hand over the Hylian Mushrooms to them. This is a challenging task if you decide to go in blind without prior knowledge.
Below are two tips that will make your life easy if you do the quest without help.
- Team Reede supporters can be located by their appearance and plain clothes. Unlike Cece supporters, they won’t be wearing any mushroom hats.
- Finding Reede supporters during the daytime is easier as most of them go to bed around 8 pm. You can use the inn or any campfire to skip the time to morning.
- Most of the people supporting Reede are old people.
Below is a list of all eight villagers and instructions on how to find them in Hateno Village.
