Getting the Quest
To get the Free the Divine Beasts quest, you’ll have to talk to Impa in Kakariko Village as part of the main quest. This quest is assigned alongside a few others you can do as well. Once you get the quest to Free the Divine Beasts, you can do so in any order you wish. There are four Divine Beasts, each in different areas of Hyrule. Below is how to free each one from easiest to hardest.
Divine Beast Vah Ruta in Zora’s Domain
To start, you’ll want to make your way to Zora’s Domain in Lanayru. You should be able to see the Lanaryu tower if you head north out of Kakariko Village. From there, you should meet Gruve, one of the Zora. He will direct you towards Sidon, who is on the bridge below the tower near the Soh Kofi Shrine. Go down and speak with him to get your quest to go to Zora’s Domain. Along with Sidon, you’ll travel along a road with many monsters, so be sure to be prepared and stocked on food. Sidon says many enemies are using electric attacks along the way; he will provide you with an Electro elixir.
Reach Zora’s Domain
Sidon will guide you along a path to reach Zora’s Domain. Make sure to have plenty of electricity-resistant dishes or Electro elixirs as you’ll be battling a lot of electric enemies along this path. At the end of the trail, before you get to Zora’s Domain, you’ll have to fight a Lightning Wizzrobe. Then you can continue on your quest.
Free Vah Ruta
After speaking with Zora King Dorephan, you’ll have to find Muzu and gather 20 shock arrows. You’ll also receive new Zora armor, which will help you in this terrain. Follow the steps below to free Vah Ruta.
Vah Ruta Dungeon
Inside Vah Ruta, you’ll need to activate six different terminals.
Divine Beast Vah Rudania in Death Mountain
Start your quest in Goron City and speak to Goron Boss Bludo. Leave Goron City to go towards the mines, and you’ll find Drak. Speak with him, and he’ll tell you about Yunobo, who is trapped in a vault in Darunia Lake. Here’s how to help him and free Vah Rudania. Now you can go back to the bottom, where the main giant terminal is. However, you’ll now need to defeat Waterblight Ganon to continue. After you defeat him, you can talk to Dorephan to finish the quest.
Vah Rudania Dungeon
Even though it will be very dark once you enter, you’ll find a torch inside a nearby chest. Light it using the fire near the entrance.
Divine Beast Vah Medoh in the Hebra Mountains
To start this quest, you’ll want to speak to Kaneli in Rito Village. He will tell you about Teba, who is trying to stop the Divine Beast’s attacks on the village. You can find him at the base of the Hebra Mountains. Here’s how to find Teba and free Vah Medoh.

Inside the Divine Beast, you’ll need to activate all the terminals.
Divine Beast Vah Naboris in Gerudo Desert
Before you can start this quest, you’ll need to gain access to Gerudo Town as no men are allowed inside. Talk to Benja and then go to Kara Kara Bazaar and find the Inn. On top of it, you’ll see a woman, talk to her and compliment her outfit. Then you can buy it for 600 rupees. Now change into it, and you’ll be able to get into Gerudo Town. Follow these steps to free Vah Naboris.
Vah Naboris Dungeon
Like the other Divine Beasts, you’ll have to activate all the terminals here. In this room, you should see a blue platform that will bring you into the next one. Climb up to the side balcony to use the lever to move the one below. Then jump down and go through the opening with the moving platform to the next room. Go down the platform with the monster on it and kill it. Then look to the side and hit the eye on the wall with an arrow. It will destroy the entire creature, and you can access the terminal above.
