Walkthrough[edit]

  • to learn about what happened to the orb, head into the palace room of Gerudo Village.
  • Talk with Riju to learn that the Yiga have stolen the sacred orb.
  • This means you will need to head back to the Yiga Hideout and find the Stolen Orb within.
  • Travel to the Gerudo Tower to get close to your destination.
  • Once you arrive at the Sheikah Tower, switch over to your Map and mark the pit behind the Yiga Hideout. That is your destination.
  • Travel to the Northwest across Sapphia's Table.
  • This will lead you to the back entrance of the Yiga Hideout.
  • When you arrive at the hole in the back of the Yiga Hideout, head over to the stone doorway.
  • By the rear doorway you will find Mils and Mina.
  • Both will warn you that the Yiga have returned to their hideout.
  • Go inside hideout next.
  • In the first room you will find a number of Mighty Bananas.
  • Change into your choice of stealth gear and then head down the hallway to the left.
  • This will lead to a large room.
  • The chamber you are in has 3 Yiga Blademasters patrolling it.
  • You can distract the Blademasters from their patrol paths using Mighty Bananas.
  • They will skip over to any Bananas and gleefully collect them.


  • Alerting them will have the doors of the chamber close and the Blademasters and 2-4 Yiga Footsoldiers teleport in to attack you.
  • Any of these can kill you in a single hit if you enter combat.


  • When you enter the chamber, look over to the left around the corner.
  • Watch and wait for the Yiga Blademaster to come toward you then turn around.
  • Once it has, climb the nearby wall straight up.
  • When you reach the bend in the wall, go over to the right and climb over to the nearby wall.
  • Continue upwards to where the walkways are.
  • Use the walkways to make your way over to the far side of the room to the South.
  • Get to the large central pillar.
  • From there, glide over to the Southern doorway.
  • In this corridor, go to the West and climb up the ladder there.
  • Turn to the North and head into the storage room where you can see the Sheikah Sphere and a number of Mighty Bananas.
  • Collect the Sphere and head to the first open section of wall.
  • Drop down carefully onto the pillar there, now watch the Blademasters to learn some of their patrol pattern.
  • Wait for the Blademaster patrolling the pillar you are on to head West along the side it to drop down and go to the Eastern side.
  • With some luck the nearby Blademaster patrolling the Eastern side will notice you and come to investigate.
  • Do not stop going to the East and get to the wall.
  • Once there, go North then East to reach the corridor you came through.
  • This will bring you back out to the large arena with the massive pit in the middle.
  • After you throw the orb into the pit, the shrine Kihiro Moh will rise up out of the ground on the far side.
  • Go inside the shrine to complete the Trial: Inside the Box.

Dialogue[edit]

Mils: I hear the Yiga clan were taken out by a traveling swordsman. And yet... There are still an awful lot of 'em around! They seem to be hoarding bananas too. Maybe they're still up to no good?! I know one thing for sure... The orb they stole from the Gerudo tribe is in their second floor storage. But getting there is too dangerous. Staying alive is essential to being a great treasure hunter!

Summary[edit]

The scattered One-Hit Obliterator led you to a location where a stone monument with a map of trials appeared. Kass's song seems related...

One, fight the brute of the sand.

Two, chase rings upon the land.

Three, throw the orb underground.

Champion, trials abound!
