How to Complete ‘Gloom-borne Illness’ Quest in Tears of the Kingdom (TOTK)
Gloom-Borne Illness can be found in Kakariko Village. You’ll find a woman sitting by a fire under a little hut. She will tell you about her sick grandmother and how porridge used to make her better, but now with this Gloom illness, nothing seems to be working.
You will need to make Porridge, but instead of using wild greens, you’ll need to use Sundelions, which are found on the Sky Islands. You’ll need at least two to make the porridge.
The recipe for Porridge is as follows
- Fresh Milk
- Hylian Rice
- Sundelions
