- Return to Kilton After taking the photograph, show it to Kilton so Hudson can produce the sculpture and the villagers can see the completed addition to the collection.
- Clear inventory space The completion reward is one Monster Extract. Make sure there is enough inventory space before accepting the reward from Kilton.
A Monstrous Collection II overview
A Monstrous Collection II is a short photography-focused Side Adventure that continues Kilton and Hudson’s monster-sculpture project in Tarrey Town.
The quest begins with Kilton in Tarrey Town after A Monstrous Collection I has been completed. Kilton asks Link to obtain a photograph of a Horriblin, then use that image as the reference for the next sculpture in the collection. The task is therefore less about a conventional combat objective and more about identifying the requested monster, recording it with the in-game camera, and returning the result to the quest giver.
Once the required Horriblin image has been captured, show it to Kilton. Hudson can then create the requested sculpture, and Kilton presents the completed monster sculpture to the villagers. The presentation is the quest’s concluding scene and confirms that the photograph was accepted for the collection.
The main practical detail to watch is the reward inventory requirement. Completing the task grants one Monster Extract, but Link must have enough room in his inventory to accept it from Kilton. The quest sits between A Monstrous Collection I and A Monstrous Collection III, making it one stage in the larger Tarrey Town sculpture sequence.

Walkthrough
- 01
Complete A Monstrous Collection I
Finish the preceding collection questBefore beginning A Monstrous Collection II, complete A Monstrous Collection I. The sequence is linked, so the follow-up task is associated with Kilton’s ongoing sculpture collection rather than being an unrelated request.
Location: Tarrey Town
TipIf Kilton does not offer the quest, check the status of the preceding collection task first.
- 02
Speak with Kilton
Talk to Kilton in Tarrey TownFind Kilton in Tarrey Town and speak with him to start the quest. He explains that Hudson needs a photograph of a Horriblin as the reference for the next monster sculpture.
Location: Tarrey Town
- 03
Find a Horriblin
Locate a HorriblinLeave Tarrey Town and search for a Horriblin. Horriblins are encountered as cave-dwelling enemies in Hyrule, so caves are the appropriate type of location to search; the supplied sources do not identify one required cave.
TipYou do not need to defeat the monster before taking the picture. Position Link so the creature is clearly visible and keep enough distance to avoid being interrupted.
- 04
Take a photograph of a Horriblin
Photograph the HorriblinUse the in-game camera to capture the Horriblin. The important requirement is the requested monster image, not a particular weapon, pose, or combat result.
Watch outIf the camera does not register the subject, retake the image while the Horriblin is clearly in view rather than returning to Tarrey Town with an unrelated photograph.
- 05
Show the photograph to Kilton
Return to Kilton with the imageTravel back to Tarrey Town and speak with Kilton again. Show him the Horriblin photograph when prompted; this confirms the reference Hudson needs for the sculpture.
Location: Tarrey Town
- 06
See the completed sculpture presentation
Watch the sculpture presentationAfter Kilton accepts the image, Hudson creates the monster sculpture. Kilton then presents it to the villagers, which completes the collection task and advances the quest sequence.
Location: Tarrey Town
- 07
Receive Monster Extract
Accept the rewardFinish the conversation with Kilton and collect one Monster Extract. If the inventory is full or lacks the required space, make room before attempting to accept the reward.
Location: Tarrey Town
Watch outInsufficient inventory space prevents acceptance of the reward until space is available.
Mission mechanics
A Monstrous Collection II uses the camera as a quest tool rather than treating the requested monster as a normal defeat objective. The photograph is the item Link must present to Kilton, so returning with a monster part or another kind of image does not address the stated request.
Horriblins are encountered as cave-dwelling enemies, which gives the search a useful direction without requiring a particular named cave. A player can approach the encounter as a photography task: locate the enemy, frame it clearly, and take the image before deciding whether to fight or leave.
The quest then shifts back to Tarrey Town. Kilton handles the hand-in, Hudson creates the sculpture from the reference, and the villagers see the finished result. The final reward is a Monster Extract, with inventory capacity acting as the practical completion check.
What works and what does not
Strengths
- The objective is clear once Kilton gives the request: obtain a Horriblin photograph and return it.
- The task connects exploration, the camera system, and Tarrey Town’s evolving monster-sculpture display.
- The quest does not require a named target location according to the supplied facts, allowing the player to use a Horriblin encounter they find during exploration.
Weaknesses
- The source material does not identify a specific cave or fixed encounter location, so players must search for a Horriblin rather than follow a single named destination.
- The reward requires inventory space, which can interrupt completion if Link’s inventory is full.
- The quest has little decision-making or combat structure; its main challenge is correctly photographing the requested enemy and completing the hand-in.
Best uses
- Take the photograph during normal cave exploration to avoid a separate search.
- Return to Tarrey Town immediately after obtaining the image if the quest marker or objective confirms it.
- Check inventory space before the final conversation with Kilton.
