"Beetle Ballyhoo" is a Side Quest in Echoes of Wisdom.[1]
Overview

Once Princess Zelda has finished the Main Quest "Still Missing", she can find the Gerudo Soldier Raslett talking to herself outside of her House in Gerudo Town.[2] If Zelda approaches Raslett, she recognizes her as the person who mended the Gerudo Desert's Rifts.[3] She then reveals that she has a favor to ask her.[4] After considering it for a moment, she decides that she does not want anyone else to hear her, so she invites Zelda into her House.[5]
Inside, Raslett asks Zelda if she has ever encountered Beetles.[6] Recently, Raslett has been tasked with dispatching Beetle Mounds.[7] However, Raslett is afraid of Beetles and cannot stand the sight of them, and her friends are unable to help her.[8] As a result, she asks Zelda to destroy the Mounds for her, promising a reward in return.[9] She gives Zelda directions to the Cave where the Mounds can be found, though she also warns her of the Boarblins that inhabit the area.[10] Afterwards, "Beetle Ballyhoo" will begin.
The Beetle Mounds that Zelda must deal with are located in a Cave northeast of Gerudo Town. There are a total of four Mounds. Zelda can destroy them by striking them while in Swordfighter Form, having the Echo of a Monster attack them, or throwing an Object at them.

When Zelda returns to Raslett's House, she will still be upset.[2] Upon informing her that the Beetle Mounds are gone, Raslett will be grateful for Zelda's help.[11] To reward Zelda, she gives her the Heart Barrette, which is her prized possession made by a Gerudo artisan.[12] At that moment, Raslett's commander will enter the House.[13] She wants to talk to Raslett about the Beetle Mounds, and Raslett claims she was about to inform her that she destroyed them.[14] The commander is impressed by Raslett's abilities, and as a result, she plans on having her destroy more Mounds in the future.[15] She then leaves. Raslett feels bad that taking credit for Zelda's actions led her commander to putting her trust in her.[16] She is inspired to get over her fear of Beetles so that she can meet her superior's expectations.[17] Following this, "Beetle Ballyhoo" will be completed.

I can't do this...
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
You're Zelda, right? The one who got rid of the rifts in the desert?
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
I... I've got a favor to ask. It's something I can't really ask anyone else to help me with...
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
But I don't want anyone out here to overhear, so let's step inside.
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
So, um... You haven't run into any beetles, have you? They're gross little bugs that crawl perpetually out of beetle mounds until you destroy the nest.
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
Usually I'm busy with soldier duties, but right now I'm tasked with eliminating beetle mounds...
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
I just can't stand b-b-beetles! Ugh, with their nasty little legs and the way they move?! I'd be whining about this to my friends, but they can't be bothered to help...
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
So, could you deal with the beetle mounds for me? I'll give you something good!
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
The nests I'm supposed to deal with are in a cave northeast of here. They're swarming in there...ugh. Let me know once you've gotten rid of all of them, and be careful of the Boarblins in the area.
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
You... You got rid of the beetle mounds? Thank you! You've really helped me out!
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
I want you to have my prized accessory as thanks. It's made by a Gerudo artisan!
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
Ralsett!
— Gerudo Soldier (Echoes of Wisdom)Commander? What are you doing here?
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
Apologies for bothering you when you're off duty. But I wanted to speak to you about the nests.
— Gerudo Soldier (Echoes of Wisdom)Oh, um, yes. I just finished dealing with them. I was about to come tell you.
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
I knew it! I just received a report that they'd been eliminated. I am so impressed, Raslett! Your strength, bravery, and commitment know no bounds! The next time I need help dealing with nests, you'll be the first one I ask!
— Gerudo Soldier (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
Oh... I...feel pretty bad now... I claimed responsibility for what was your hard work. I didn't tell the commander the truth. And now I've earned her trust and accolades when I was just being a coward...
— Raslett (Echoes of Wisdom) - ↑
I can't let things lie this way. Next time, I'll live up to her expectations! I'll overcome my fear of beetles and exterminate them myself!
