Zelda TOTK: Where is Selmie In The Duchess Who Disappeared?

screenrant.com:

"" is a side quest in which can be surprisingly tricky to complete. It focuses on Selmie, the titular Duchess of Downhill, who has gone missing amid the regional phenomena affecting Hyrule after the Upheaval. Although ostensibly a relatively short task to complete, the conditions in which Link must operate can make finding Selmie much harder than it may first seem.

Selmie’s nickname refers to her status as a famous Shield Surfer, although by the time of her first appearance in, she had retired from engaging in the sport herself. Despite this, she does still comment on the suitability of Link’s shield for surfing in , and also runs the Shield-Surfing mini-game from her small cabin in the Hebra Mountains. In, Selmie has even taken on two students, but when Link first visits Hebra, he finds that Selmie herself has vanished, much to the concern of those who know her.

Although Link can begin this side quest at Selmie’s Spot by talking to Russ, one of Selmie’s students, he is initially directed to the Biron Snowshelf. Traveling west, Link can then find Russ’ friend and fellow student, Fin, in a valley alongside the eastern edge of the Snowshelf. Finn muses that despite him setting up a smoke signal, Selmie appears to not have seen it. In actuality, the Duchess herself is not especially far from here, and has become trapped by a rockfall in a nearby cave.

Selmie can be found in the East Biron Snowshelf Cave, blocked off from the outside world by breakable walls of rocks. The cave’s entrance can be found by entering the valley just below where Finn has set up his campfire, and it is worth noting that a nearby Blupee can be used as a guideto find it. Additionally, this cave actually has two entrances; Finn is positioned near the eastern entrance, and there is another located further away in the west. The in-game coordinates for these are approximately (-3554, 3089, 0274) and (-3988, 3062, 0140) respectively.

Due to ’s open-world design, it is perfectly possible to begin
