TotK Tulin: Locations, Wind Temple and Treasure Quest
Find Tulin in Tears of the Kingdom from Rito Village to Hebra’s mountain route, then check his Wind Temple reward and the secret-springs treasure quest.
Who is Tulin, and where does his quest start?
Tulin is Teba’s son and your Rito companion for the blizzard investigation in Tears of the Kingdom. Start with his family on the upper walkways of Rito Village. After he flies off, follow the mountain trail to find him again; helping him leads into the Wind Temple story.
Where is Tulin at each stage?
| Stage | Where to go | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| First meeting | Upper part of Rito Village | Speak with Teba, Saki and Tulin |
| He has flown away | Hebra Trailhead Lodge, then Hebra South Summit Cave | Harth and the Rito along the route point onward |
| Recovering his bow | Lone tree on Talonto Peak | Help bring down the Aerocuda carrying the bow, then finish the fight |
| Climbing above the blizzard | Rising Island Chain and the Wind Temple | Stay on the regional route and use his gust to cross gaps |
| Regional story finished | Return to Teba’s home in Rito Village | Speak to Tulin for the secret-springs treasure clue |
Rito Village on the map marks the starting settlement. Before the temple is complete, Tulin is a story companion: if you leave the route, resume the active regional objective rather than looking for a vow you have not received yet.
Which quests involve Tulin?
| Quest | How to trigger it | Reward or result |
|---|---|---|
| Tulin of Rito Village | Meet the family in Rito Village and follow Tulin into the mountains | Heart Container and Vow of Tulin, Sage of Wind after the dungeon and regional ending |
| Treasure of the Secret Springs | Return to Tulin after completing the regional main quest | Vah Medoh Divine Helm from the hidden treasure chest |
The later Legacy of the Rito crafting quest belongs to Teba. Speak to him for the Great Eagle Bow; it is not a reward for bringing Tulin back.
How does Tulin help after the temple?
Summon his avatar from the vow in Key Items. While gliding, activate his gust to gain forward distance. It pushes you ahead, so begin with enough height to clear the next obstacle; it does not replace an upward launch.
On the ground, approach the avatar to aim and release the gust. It can scatter loose items, so collect drops before using it beside a pile of loot.
What should you check before following him uphill?
Bring cold protection and arrows. The snowy mountain and sky ascent are more demanding than a short visit to the village; keep a recovery meal ready and register shrines along the route. Clearing the blizzard does not make the whole Hebra region warm.
