What is stopping the trip to Mija?

The horn player must return, and the wagon needs a roof. In Tears of the Kingdom, Mija’s serenade begins at Snowfield Stable after Tera’s quest. Mastro will not take the troupe into the snow with an uncovered passenger compartment.

How do you get Eustus back?

Talk to Mastro about the missing horn player. Eustus is stranded with his wagon in a hole in Tabantha Frontier. Finish his rescue and take his thank-you gift, then return to Snowfield Stable. Finding him without getting the wagon out does not finish his task.

You do not need to bring the hornist physically across the whole map yourself. Once his rescue is complete, he rejoins the troupe through the quest progression.

How do you make a roof Mastro accepts?

  1. Use Ultrahand to pick up a broad board from the nearby building supplies.
  2. Rotate it flat above the wagon’s passenger area.
  3. Attach it across the upper supports. Check that it covers the seats instead of hanging off one side.
  4. Speak with Mastro again and arrange the ride.

Attach a board across the wagon’s roof supports to keep the snow off the musicians.

If he still talks about the roof, move the board into place and make a proper attachment. A board resting nearby, or a wall on the side of the cart, does not solve the problem. If the roof breaks during travel, repair it before asking the troupe to continue.

How do you reach the fountain safely?

Connect a harness-equipped horse to the wagon’s front. Board the musicians before leaving, then head north toward the fountain at the lower mountain slope. Take gradual turns and steer around enemies or obstacles; rushing across uneven snow can overturn the cart.

Once the roof is on and the troupe is aboard, a harness-equipped horse pulls the wagon toward the fountain.

Keep Link warm with suitable equipment or food from the cold-weather guide. Protecting the passengers with a roof does not provide cold resistance to Link.

What changes after the performance?

Mija emerges, Mastro gives a Silver Rupee, and another armor upgrade tier becomes available. You can use that unlocked tier at any open fountain. Materials and rupees are still required for each enhancement.

FAQ

Why is Mastro waiting for a horn player?
Complete The Hornist’s Dramatic Escape in Tabantha Frontier, then return to Mastro at Snowfield Stable.
Why does Mastro refuse to board?
The wagon needs a roof that covers its passenger area. Attach a board across the upper supports, then speak to him again.
Do I need to open Kaysa and Cotera first?
No. Tera must open first, but the other three fountains can be opened in any order.
Does Mija always unlock four-star upgrades?
No. Each opened fountain adds one upgrade tier. Four-star upgrades require all four fountains, regardless of which fairy you visit last.
