Hebra’s Colossal Fossil Walkthrough

Follow our step-by-step guide to complete Hebra's Colossal Fossil in The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Find the missing bones and restore the Leviathan!

Alright, so you've finished up with Eldin's giant fossil, and now Loone's got another one for you to tackle! This time, we're heading way up north to the Hebra Mountains, specifically the Hebra North Summit. Unlike the last few, this big guy isn't just chilling out in the open. You'll need to find a cave at the base of the mountain. Don't worry, it's got a big door, and Loone helpfully marked it on your map. If you want to get there fast, the Eutoum Shrine is your best bet.

Once you step inside the cave, you'll find Loone warming herself by a campfire. She'll explain that the Hebra Leviathan is missing a couple of crucial parts: a tail bone and a fin. Look around – you'll spot a bone stuck in some rocks to your left, and a big chunk of ice to your right. Head over to those breakable rocks and hit 'em with a Bomb Flower. That'll free up the fin bone. Now, you'll need to grab that fin bone and drag it over to the wall where the skeleton's right fin should be. Use your Ultrahand ability to slot it back into place. A little cutscene will play once it's secured.

Next up, we've got that glacier. Make your way over to it and start blasting it with arrows tipped with Fire Fruit. It'll take about ten arrows to melt through all that ice and free the tailbone. Once it's loose, use Ultrahand again to pick it up and carry it over to the skeleton. This part can be a bit fiddly: you'll need to twist the bone around until the large fin is pointing upwards, then carefully maneuver it into the spine. It might take a few tries to get it to fit just right, but once you do, another cutscene will trigger, and the Hebra Leviathan will finally be complete!

Head back to Loone and chat with her. She'll be thrilled to see the skeleton all put back together. As a reward for your efforts, she'll hand over a Purple Rupee. This also kicks off the final part of her questline: Gerudo's Colossal Fossil. If you're ready to jump right into that one, make your way to the Gerudo Desert. Just a heads-up: if you haven't cleared the Lightning Temple yet, the desert will be stuck in a nasty, never-ending sandstorm, so be prepared!
