Missing in Action is a Side Quest in.

Overview
Link can begin the Quest by talking to Sesami at Gerudo Canyon Stable. He tells Link that he was separated from his friends when some monsters jumped them at Koukot Plateau. His friends' names are Oliff, Flaxel, Canolo and Palme. Link will find Sesami's friends at Koukot Plateau on a series of wooden platforms high up on the cliff walls. He will find each one being attacked by monsters and must defeat the monsters to rescue them. After talking to each of them, they will go safely to Gerudo Canyon Stable with Sesami.

After rescuing Canolo, she immediately expresses anger toward Sesami, saying that he ran away as soon as the monsters showed up. After saving Oliff, he tells Link that he thought it unwise to challenge the monsters due to being vastly outnumbered. Oliff is glad to hear that Sesami is safely waiting for him at Gerudo Canyon Stable. After saving Palme, he wonders to Link why Sesami didn't come save him and questions if Sesami lied about mastering martial arts. Upon rescuing Flaxel, she is very angry that Sesami was at the stable instead of saving her.

After rescuing all four of Sesami's friends, they can be found at Gerudo Canyon Stable with Sesami. Sesami will tell Link that he's glad to see his friends are safe and thanks him by rewarding him with 300 Rupees. Before Sesami finishes talking and the Quest is complete, he tells Link that he is glad this happened because it helped him realize the importance of friendship. He reflects on what he learned, expressing to Link that while opening up to others makes a person more vulnerable, it is the only way to give life value. In a comical twist, Sesami bluntly reveals that he will be parting ways with his friends because caring for others is an emotional liability. In reality, Sesami has no idea what lesson to take away.
