Based on {{Term|BotW|Link}}'s appearance, {{Term|BotW|Straia}} presumes that he is a strong adventurer.<ref>{{Cite|Just from looking at you, I'd guess that you're an adventurer, right?

There are two {{Plural|BotW|Lynel}} located on the {{Term|BotW|Oseira Plains|link}}, which lead into the {{Term|BotW|Taobab Grassland}}. {{Term|BotW|Link}} must either bypass or defeat them in order to reach the {{Term|BotW|Giant Horse}}. The {{Term|BotW|Giant Horse}} itself requires at least two {{Plural|BotW|Stamina Wheel|link}} to tame, though it can be ridden past the {{Plural|BotW|Lynel}} without the need for a fight. | There are two {{Plural|BotW|Lynel}} located on the {{Term|BotW|Oseira Plains|link}}, which lead into the {{Term|BotW|Taobab Grassland}}. {{Term|BotW|Link}} must either bypass or defeat them in order to reach the {{Term|BotW|Giant Horse}}.

{{Term|BotW|Link}} can ride the {{Term|BotW|Giant Horse}} back to the {{Term|BotW|Mounted Archery Camp}} and show it to {{Term|BotW|Straia}}.<ref>{{Cite|That horse...
