Quest Overview
The Stable Trotters — the traveling band that performs at stables across Hyrule — lost a trunk of sheet music when their wagon was attacked by monsters near Akkala. The music sheets are scattered across five locations between Akkala Stable and Tarrey Town. Collect all five sheets and return them to the bandleader Pyper, who rewards Link with a private performance of their most popular song and a batch of premium cooking materials.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough
1
Find Pyper and the Stable Trotters at East Akkala Stable
The Stable Trotters' bandleader Pyper is sitting dejectedly outside East Akkala Stable, unable to perform. He explains their trunk of sheet music — handwritten originals, irreplaceable — spilled across the road when Bokoblins attacked their wagon between the stable and Tarrey Town. Five sheets were lost across different spots along the route. Without them, the band cannot remember the precise arrangements.
2
Search the Road Between Akkala Stable and Tarrey Town
Travel the road northwest from East Akkala Stable toward Tarrey Town. The five music sheets appear as folded parchment on the road, in roadside bushes, on a tree branch over the path, wedged in a fence post, and floating in the shallows of the nearby stream. Each sheet glows faintly when approached and is listed in the Purah Pad item notes as "Trotters Sheet Music: [Song Title]." Collect all five from the roughly 1-kilometer stretch between the two settlements.
3
Return the Sheets to Pyper
Bring all five recovered sheets back to Pyper at East Akkala Stable. He counts them eagerly and is visibly moved when all five are accounted for. He calls the band together and invites Link to sit at the outdoor performance area for a private concert — a full three-minute arrangement of the Stable Trotters' most famous song, "The Road to Home," played just for Link. After the performance, the cook among the band provides a basket of premium cooking ingredients as a personal thank-you.
