Overview

To the Kingdom of Hyrule is the early Main Quest that carries Link from the opening tutorial area into the surface world.

To the Kingdom of Hyrule begins after Link completes the tutorial events on Great Sky Island and dives toward the surface. The quest marks the point at which the game moves away from the enclosed floating-island introduction and opens up the changed landscape of Hyrule for wider exploration. Its central task is straightforward: reach Lookout Landing, the base camp near Hyrule Castle, and report there.

The destination is Lookout Landing, a settlement and research base positioned on the surface close to Hyrule Castle. The journey is less about solving a complex puzzle than about establishing the player's first route across the surface. Once Link arrives, the quest continues inside the main building, where he reunites with his old friend Purah.

Completing the quest is an important progression point rather than an optional detour. It leads into the next Main Quest, Crisis at Hyrule Castle, and unlocks the Character Profiles tab in the adventure menu. Players who complete it early gain access to those story and menu features before committing to the broader investigation of Hyrule.

Walkthrough

  1. 01

    Complete the opening tutorial sequence

    Finish the Great Sky Island tutorial

    Complete the tutorial events on Great Sky Island before attempting this quest. The surface objective is tied to the end of that opening sequence, so Link cannot meaningfully follow the route to Lookout Landing while he is still completing the island's introductory tasks.

    Location: Great Sky Island

    TipUse the tutorial's final instructions as the transition point into the main surface journey.

  2. 02

    Reach the surface of Hyrule

    Dive toward the surface

    After the Great Sky Island events are complete, take the descent toward Hyrule's surface. This dive is the quest's clear change of setting: once Link reaches the surface, the next task is no longer an island tutorial objective but a journey to the base camp near Hyrule Castle.

    Location: The descent from Great Sky Island

    Watch outDo not treat the first surface landing point as the end of the quest; the marked destination remains Lookout Landing.

  3. 03

    Reach Lookout Landing

    Travel across the surface to Lookout Landing

    Make your way through the changed surface landscape toward Lookout Landing. The settlement is a base camp near Hyrule Castle and is the location the quest is asking Link to reach, so consult the map and keep the camp as the destination instead of diverting into unrelated exploration.

    Location: Surface Hyrule

    TipCompleting the quest early is useful because it opens the next story step and an adventure-menu feature before the wider journey develops.

  4. 04

    Enter the main building

    Enter the main building at Lookout Landing

    When you arrive at Lookout Landing, continue into the settlement's main building. Simply reaching the camp does not finish the story beat; the required progression occurs when Link goes inside and reaches the person he came to see.

    Location: Lookout Landing

    Checkpoint
  5. 05

    Reunite with Purah

    Reunite with Purah

    Find Purah inside the main building and complete the conversation that confirms Link's arrival. This reunion closes To the Kingdom of Hyrule, advances the story to Crisis at Hyrule Castle, and unlocks the Character Profiles tab in the adventure menu.

    Location: Main building, Lookout Landing

Mission mechanics

The main mechanic of this quest is navigation across a new world layer. Great Sky Island teaches the opening systems in a floating environment, while To the Kingdom of Hyrule asks the player to orient themselves on the surface and recognize Lookout Landing as the first important base camp. The quest therefore functions as a transition from guided tutorial movement to broader map-based travel.

Lookout Landing serves as the quest's completion hub. The important interaction is inside the main building, where Link reunites with Purah. If the objective appears to have stalled after arrival, the practical solution is to move into that building and continue the conversation rather than searching the surrounding settlement for a separate destination.

There is no supplied indication that this quest revolves around a boss, a required puzzle chain, or a special combat encounter. Its progression is driven by reaching the named location and completing the story interaction there. Optional exploration on the way can be postponed because the essential route is the arrival and report-in sequence.

What works and what does not

Strengths

  • Provides a clear destination after the open-ended feel of the sky tutorial.
  • Introduces Lookout Landing as an important surface base camp near Hyrule Castle.
  • Connects the arrival sequence directly to the next Main Quest and a useful adventure-menu feature.

Weaknesses

  • The quest offers little in the way of a standalone puzzle or combat challenge.
  • Players who explore widely before following the destination may spend time away from the straightforward story route.
  • The exact surface route can feel less directed than the tutorial because the quest is also introducing open-world navigation.

Best uses

  • Complete it early when beginning the surface portion of the game.
  • Use Lookout Landing as the first major destination after the descent.
  • Return to the main building if reaching the settlement does not immediately advance the objective.

Choices and consequences

  • Complete the quest early

    The main story proceeds to Crisis at Hyrule Castle, and the Character Profiles tab becomes available in the adventure menu.

  • Explore the surface before reporting in

    The supplied material describes exploration as encouraged but does not identify a unique alternate outcome or permanent penalty for delaying the report-in.

Aftermath

The surface journey becomes the main route

Once Link meets Purah inside Lookout Landing's main building, To the Kingdom of Hyrule gives way to Crisis at Hyrule Castle. The completion also unlocks Character Profiles, making this a useful early story checkpoint before continuing into the larger investigation.

Trivia

  • The quest's title reflects Link's movement from the floating sky setting into the surface kingdom.
  • Lookout Landing is presented as a base camp near Hyrule Castle rather than as the castle investigation itself.
  • The quest is notable for its transition in scale: it follows the contained Great Sky Island tutorial with travel through the broader surface landscape.
