The White Goats Gone Missing side quest is a simple one in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. In this side quest, you will need to find some white goats which have been missing from the pen. The herder tells us that he made a recipe for goat feed given to him by Princess Zelda. This recipe uses raw Hylian pine cones as an ingredient.
Unfortunately, the goats didn’t like the feed and ran away. Now, it is up to us to find and return them. Read on to learn how to start this side adventure and complete it in Zelda: TotK.
Talk to Penn at the Tabantha Bridge Stable
White Goats Gone Missing is part of the Potential Princess Sightings, so you must start there first. This can be done by talking to Tyrasi at the Lucky Clover Gazette near the entrance of the Rito Village.
After that, you can start this side quest by talking with Penn at the Tabantha Bridge Stable. This is next to the Tabantha Great Bridge in Western Hyrule Ridge. It is to the Southeast of Lindor’s Brow Skyview Tower, and the nearest shrine is Iun-orok Shrine.
When you approach Hyrule Ridge, you will find Penn (-1644, 2579, 0233). He says that the white goats are missing, and Princess Zelda is involved in the matter.
Next to him, you will find Chork. He will tell you about a recipe Princess Zelda gave him that uses Hylian Pine Cones. Unfortunately, he misplaced the recipe and tried to recreate it from memory. However, his white goats didn’t like it and went away.
He will ask you to find his white goats, as they are one of a kind. You will also need to find a bottle containing Zelda’s recipe. This will start the quest and add it to your journal.
Follow the Hylian Pine Cones to find the White Goats
White Goats Gone Missing can be completed quite easily since you won’t have to go far. After you have spoken to Penn and Chork, you will find a Hylian Pine cone outside the goat pen.
When you approach it, you will find that the pine cones form a trail southeast of the Tabantha Bridge Stable. Follow the trail, and you will be taken to the goats. They are in the nearby forest of Seres Scablands.
The white goats will also have the recipe in the bottle nearby. As soon as you interact with the bottle, Chork will appear and talk to you about the recipe.
Thus, he learns that the Princess was right and that he had not remembered it correctly. Chork promises to start using the correct recipe so his white goats won’t run away again. This will complete the White Goats Gone Missing side quest in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
Quest Reward
Next, Penn will come to you and reward you with a Silver Rupee. However, the amount of Rupees will depend on how far you are into the Potential Princess Sightings quest.
