Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1

Find Beedle Shaken Near Dueling Peaks Stable

Approach Dueling Peaks Stable and find Beedle sitting on a log outside, visibly distressed. He explains that a Bokoblin ambush on the road east of the stable caught him off guard — the monsters stole his traveling merchant pack containing his entire rare insect collection, several arrows, and personal Rupees. He cannot fight and begs Link to recover it before the Bokoblins destroy or eat everything inside.

2

Track the Bokoblin Camp East of the Stable

Head east from Dueling Peaks Stable along the river road. The Bokoblin ambush camp is about 300 meters away — look for a smoking cook fire and the telltale red tent structure. Four Bokoblins guard the camp and one Blue Bokoblin leader carries the stolen pack, identifiable as a large yellow satchel visible in his hands as he rifles through the contents. A fifth Bokoblin is already trying to eat one of Beedle's beetles.

3

Defeat the Bokoblins and Recover the Pack

Eliminate the Blue Bokoblin leader first — he will flee with the pack if alerted without being immediately engaged. Target him with a charged bow shot from the treeline to knock him down, then close the distance to defeat him. The four regular Bokoblins can be handled with melee sweeps or bomb arrows. Once the leader is defeated, the stolen pack appears as a lootable item on the ground.

4

Return the Pack to Beedle

Bring the recovered merchant pack back to Beedle at Dueling Peaks Stable. He is overjoyed and checks the contents nervously — everything is intact except two Hylian Shrooms that a Bokoblin ate. As thanks, Beedle applies a permanent 20% discount to all his shop prices whenever you trade with him at any stable, and gifts Link his rarest insect from the collection (a Bladed Rhino Beetle or Rugged Rhino Beetle).
