TotK Serenade to Kaysa: Pyper and the Big-Wheel Wagon

How do you open Kaysa’s fountain?

Bring Pyper back, then use Big Wheels to carry the troupe over the rubble. This Tears of the Kingdom quest starts at Outskirt Stable once Tera’s fountain is open. A horse and repaired wagon are not enough for Kaysa’s obstructed road.

What must you do before assembling the vehicle?

Ask Mastro about the flute player. Travel to Highland Stable, help Pyper with his firefly performance, and finish his conversation afterward. Return to Mastro at Outskirt Stable once Pyper has rejoined the troupe.

This is not a requirement to open every other fairy first. After Tera, Kaysa, Mija and Cotera can be handled in any order.

How do you build the transport?

1. Inspect the vehicle parts near the troupe. Use Ultrahand to finish the large-wheeled base, attaching the missing Big Wheel in line with the others.
2. Check the arrows on the tires: they must turn in a consistent driving direction.
3. Mount the entire musicians’ wagon securely on the base, keeping its seats upright.
4. Place the Steering Stick where Link can reach it without blocking the passenger area.
5. Talk to Mastro and board the troupe. Only then take the Steering Stick and start driving.

If the vehicle barely moves or spins in place, check wheel orientation and whether a piece of the wagon is scraping the ground. If the chassis is moving but the musicians are still standing by the stable, stop and finish the boarding dialogue.

How do you cross the rubble?

Approach the uphill road steadily. The Big Wheels can climb obstacles that stop a horse, but a sharp sideways approach can tip the wagon. Aim the front of the vehicle toward the obstruction, keep the passenger compartment level, and correct your direction gradually.

Reach the fountain with the troupe aboard to trigger the performance. For the same vehicle principles outside the quest, see vehicle builds and Zonai devices.

What is the reward?

Kaysa leaves her bud and joins the network of open Great Fairies. Each opened fountain adds an armor upgrade tier; it is the number of open fountains, not Kaysa’s identity, that sets the maximum tier. Mastro also thanks you with rupees.
