How to get Wild Greens in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

In The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, you might encounter the Gloom-Borne Illness quest, which requires you to find Wild Greens. However, there isn’t actually an item called “Wild Greens,” making this quest particularly tricky to complete. In this guide, we’ll show you where to find Wild Greens in Tears of the Kingdom.

The most important thing to note with this quest is the item you need is actually the Sundelion. The game is purposely vague, making it difficult to know what the actual item you need is. These items are found in various locations around Hyrule, but the most consistent way to find them is to visit a Sky Island around the following coordinates: -2,184, 0966, 1637.

It’s a small, circular Sky Island on the western portion of the map. To reach this Sky Island, we recommend launching from Lindor’s Brow Skyview Tower and gliding over to it. This will require a bit of stamina so it’s best to attempt this after your stamina is upgraded a couple of times.

After you arrive, head to the northeastern side of the Sky Island, where you’ll see lots of Sundelions scattered around. Grab a handful of them and then combine them with Hylian Rice and Fresh Milk to make the Sunny Veggie Porridge.

Remember, you can certainly find Sundelions elsewhere, but this is the easiest and most consistent method — especially since you can visit the Sky Island fairly early on.

After you’ve combined all the ingredients, return to Kakariko Village and give the porridge to Lasli to complete the Gloom-Borne Illness quest.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom: release date, trailers, gameplay, and more
Key art for The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom.

Every new Zelda game feels like an event, and yet Nintendo managed to keep a new mainline entry hidden almost all the way up until its release. The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is not the same size and scale as the 3D entries like Breath of the Wild or Tears of the Kingdom -- it's actually the long-awaited continuation of Zelda's 2D titles. The last game we got in this style was 2019's The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, which was a remake of the 1993 Game Boy title.

The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom caught the attention of everyone at the June Nintendo Direct where it was announced for many reasons, chief among them being Zelda taking on the starring role instead of Link. The perspective and style might look familiar, but there's a lot to learn about Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom before you jump back into Hyrule.
Release date
Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom will be released on September 26, 2024.

Zelda with the Master Sword in Tears of the Kingdom.

From its humble beginnings on the NES to the latest 3D adventure, The Legend of Zelda games are undeniably some of the best games of all time. What began as a little adventure game about a boy in a green tunic rescuing a princess has turned into a multigenerational series with tons of games across all of Nintendo's hardware. Whether you love the 2D games or massive 3D adventures, it is a tough task to pick the best Zelda game.

What's even harder is understanding the Zelda timeline. After the first two games, it wasn't clear if the subsequent games were connected at all. Each game has a different incarnation of Link, and usually Zelda and Ganon as well, but everything else appeared to only have loose ties, if any. For years, fans worked to try and make sense of the timeline as games came out, but eventually, Nintendo set the record straight with the official timeline in the The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia book (which has been converted into a handy wiki). However, since that book's publication, we've had a few new games come out that we need to find a way to place in the existing timeline ... or should we say timelines.
