Quest Location

If you have defeated the bosses of two temples, you will find Wortsworth looking at a stone column in the southwest part of Lookout Landing. Talk to him to start this quest.

Visit Wortsworth

Go to Kakariko Village and enter the broken building near where Paya is looking at the ruins. Talk to Wortsworth to learn about the 12 stone tablets. Keep an eye out for more as you travel, and take a picture of each one.

  1. South Eldin Sky Archipelago. Go to Kadaunar Shrine and glide southeast. This platform doesn't fall.
  2. Lanayru Sky Archipelago. To reach it, launch yourself from Upland Zorana Skyview Tower, then glide south. The platform will fall, and it will land just south of Ralis Pond in Upland Zorana.
  3. Hebra Mountains Sky. Go to Ijo-o Shrine and go to the northern part of the island, near the round pool of water. Glide northwest from there to the stone tablet. This stone tablet does not fall.
  4. East Hebra Sky Archipelago. Go to Taninoud Shrine and go to the launcher in the middle. Point it toward the stone tablet island if it isn't already, then get on the launcher, and glide to the stone tablet. This tablet does not fall.
  5. West Necluda Sky. Because of the low elevation of this platform, you can launch yourself from Popla Foothills Skyview Tower and go southwest to reach this platform. It does not fall.
  6. Gerudo Desert Sky. You will need to have a lot of Stamina, so you might want to increase your Stamina Wheel and bring stamina-recovery foods. Launch yourself from Gerudo Canyon Skyview Tower and glide south to reach the platform. The tablet will fall into Gerudo Desert, near Siwakama Shrine.
  7. Necluda Sky Archipelago. You will need to have a lot of Stamina, so you might want to increase your Stamina Wheel and bring stamina-recovery foods. Go to Zonaite Forge Island, and activate the wind spouts as explained on the Zonaite Forge Island page. Glide on the wind spouts to reach the top of the island, and use Ascend to reach the top of the roof. Then face south and slightly west and glide to the small flower-shaped island. The platform will fall, landing between Mount Floria and Breman Peak, on a spot that is west of Rabella Wetlands Skyview Tower.
  8. Necluda Sea Sky. If you have a lot of stamina or bring stamina-recovery foods, you can launch from Mount Lanayru Skyview Tower and glide south from there to reach this stone tablet platform. The platform will fall onto Hateno Beach, which is southeast of Hateno Village.
  9. North Gerudo Sky Archipelago. Launch yourself at Gerudo Highlands Skyview Tower and glide northeast to reach the stone tablet. The tablet will fall into the Gerudo Highlands, in the Vatorsa Snowfield between Gerudo Summit and Laparoh Mesa
  10. Great Hyrule Forest Sky. This tablet is above Drenan Highlands Chasm. To reach it, go to Mayam Shrine and use the Paraglider to go west and slightly north. The platform will fall into Drenan Highlands Chasm. If you aren't able to take a picture before it falls, dive into the chasm, but beware of the Obsidian Frox in the area. Look for the lamps on the stone tablet to help you find it, then take a picture of the tablet.
  11. South Hyrule Sky Archipelago. Go to Jinodok Shrine, and rotate the launcher in the middle of the island so it's pointing not at the flower-shaped island but at a floating Zonai platform that has a Construct on it. Defeat the Construct, then attach one rocket to the Zonai platform so it is pointing at the flower-shaped island. Hit the rocket and the platform will be launched toward the flower-shaped island. Wait until you are close enough, then glide to it. This platform does not fall.
  12. Sokala Sky Archipelago. Go to Natak Shrine and make your way north to where there is a Flux Construct on a large platform. Northeast of the Flux Construct, there is a metal platform with Zonai Fans attached, as well as a Steering Stick and Batteries. Attach as many batteries as you can to this platform, then fly upward until you are on the level with the flower-shaped platform. Fly your vehicle to it. This platform doesn't fall.

Quest Reward

For each tablet you show Wortsworth, you receive 100 rupees. For completing the quest, you receive the Zonai Survey Team Fabric.
