"Misko, the Great Bandit" is a Side Quest in Breath of the Wild.[1]

Overview

At Dueling Peaks Stable, Link can encounter the Treasure-Hunting Brothers Domidak and Prissen, who are discussing the location of an unknown object.[2] When they are approached, Prissen tells his brother that he has a lead on the location of Misko's treasure.[3] However, Domidak notices Link listening and halts him before he can reveal his information.[4] He calls Link rude for eavesdropping on their conversation,[5] and Prissen reveals that they are searching for the treasure of the bandit Misko.[6] Domidak berates his brother for almost giving away their lead,[7] which Prissen apologizes for.[8] As they are busy, they tell Link to leave them alone.[9]

If Link speaks to the brothers again, Domidak tells him to pay no mind to Prissen's words.[10] However, when Link asks about the treasure, Domidak realizes that they have been figured out.[11] Prissen suggests telling Link their lead so he will leave them alone,[12] as there is no way he could figure out the riddle.[13] Agreeing with Prissen, Domidak shares that they are searching for Misko's treasure, which would make them rich.[14] However, he refuses to give their information to Link for free,[15] instead asking for 100 Rupees.[16]

Once Link pays the fee,[17] Domidak will share the riddle with him. The riddle states, "The little twin steps over the little river. My cave rests above that river's source."[18] He heard this riddle from the former dog walker of the neighbors of one of Misko's underling's descendants.[19] After Link has heard the riddle, the Side Quest begins.

The part of the riddle speaking about a "little twin" is referring to the Little Twin Bridge, south of the Dueling Peaks Stable. It crosses over a small branch of the Squabble River, which is the "little river" in the riddle. Link must follow the river further south to Hickaly Woods where it begins as a small Waterfall on the north side of Mount Floria. Climbing the Waterfall leads Link to a bombable pile of Rocks, which hides the cave where Misko stored their treasure.

Misko's treasure is made up of a number of Treasure Chests and a few Barrels. Inside the Treasure Chests are an Opal, an Amber, two Sapphires, and a Luminous Stone. The Barrels contain Roasted Bird Drumsticks or Seared Steaks. Sitting off in a corner is a group of three Toasted Hearty Truffles, and laying on the floor is a Soldier's Spear. Another bombable wall hides a final Treasure Chest, housing a Flameblade. Opening any Treasure Chest and taking its contents ends the Side Quest.
