Below is a walkthrough on the main quests in Baldo The Guardian Owls! Please note that it’s also in the order that we did them in!
Meet Baldo’s Grandpa
From the starting point, follow the path west. Head inside the house with a donkey outside to trigger a cutscene and the Meet Baldo’s Grandpa trophy.
Talk to Mrs. Iaddina
Exit grandpa’s house and head northeast. Just before the starting area, take the stairs down and follow the path on the right. Walk across the small bridge then enter the house. Proceed through the house and exit out the back to reach Iaddina. Speaking with her will trigger the Talk to Chickwoman trophy! She will also give you a side quest to find her missing chickens!
The Abandoned Owl Tower
Head northwest from Iaddina to come to the store. Speak with the boy to the left of the store to learn that he spotted a chicken in the area. Afterwards, a brief scene will trigger showing the chicken heading into Owl Tower. Make your way there and head inside to trigger The Abandoned Owl Tower trophy. To get out of the tower, you’ll need to push the 2 stone owls onto the golden squares on the floor. Next, head to the decorated tile on the floor in front of one of the eyes and tell Yuna to wait. Head to the other decorated tile on the floor in front of the other eyes and stand there to trigger a cutscene. Once it’s done, head to the guardian symbol in the middle of the floor and play the Guardian’s Horn, revealing a ladder. Climb up it. Again, play the Guardian’s Horn on the guardian symbol when prompted by the owl to reveal a door.

A Hidden Path
Head to the Abandoned Mine in the southwestern part of the area then go inside. Avoid the bats as they damage you and speak with your grandpa at the dead end. Next, stand on the guardian symbol and use your Guardian’s Horn. You’ll receive A Hidden Path trophy!

The Farmer and the Old Shovel
Speak with the man hoeing outside of grandpa’s house to obtain this quest. Next, travel southeast of him following the signs for Calo Cabbage Patch to find Zirra in her water fields. Look for the strip of tan along the bank to enter the water then speak with Zirra. She’ll need you to return to the farmer near grandpa’s house and ask him for the shovel. Do so and this will earn you The farmer and the old shovel trophy!
Rodia Town
Head northwest of Conci the shield vendor’s house to trigger a brief scene in which Luna will give you this quest. Look to the left of Conci’s house to find a box on the other side of the water tower. Push it to reveal a set of stairs leading down. Climb on down then unlock the spider gate. Head forward a short when then climb up the ladder. Follow the path west to reach Haneko Plain. There will be a lizard here that you must fight and defeat. This lizard can be quite difficult so be careful! Once it’s defeated, head south to find a guardian symbol on the ground next to a large owl statue. Use your Guardian Horn and play the Owl Song to cause it to light up. This will unlock a fast travel point for later!
Afterwards, make your way back north and go through the gates. Head straight ahead and use the bridge to cross the river. Continue straight along the path to reach a map transition right after which you’ll meet Moiro and he’ll give you a side quest! Keep pressing forward to trigger a brief scene in which Luna says that we must find another way. She’ll run away and fall down a hole. Unfortunately, you cannot just drop down the hole after her so head back to the bridge leading to Rodia Town. Take a left in front of the bridge and follow the path left (south) along the river. Drop down the grassy cliffs to reach a dark brown area with archways. Follow the archways southwest then head across the stone bridge to find Junpei. Defeat the plant that lunges to save the boy who will then tell you about a secret passage into Rodia Town! When fighting this enemy, it’s extremely helpful to have a shield to block its lunging attacks. Once you deflect the attacks, hit it with your sword. After you hear about the well, continue forward through the bamboo and head along the river to find the well. Climb down it to reach The Underground! Click here for a guide on The Underground dungeon! Once you reach the town, you’ll receive the Rodia Town trophy!
Find Ranotto the Minstrel
Exit the Abandoned Owl Tower to trigger a scene with Luna after which you’ll receive the quest.

The quest will complete and you’ll earn the Ranotto the Minstrel trophy.
Set Luna Free
During the Rodia Town main quest, Luna will fall down a hole and you won’t be able to follow her. Instead, head to the bridge leading to Rodia and follow the path to the left of it. Keep heading left / south hugging the cliff until you come across a dark doorway next to a set of stairs leading up.
Head into the darkness to find Luna! She’ll need you to get a key that she buried by the windmill in Rodia. You can get into Rodia by going through The Underground dungeon. Once in Rodia, head south to find the windmill that has an old lady sweeping in front of it. Dig up the disturbed dirt using your shovel to receive the Maluna’s Villa Key.

Cosetta will run off again, and you can find her in the Rodia Royal Cemetery, which is down the path to the left of the restaurant. Once in the cemetery, head up the stairs straight ahead and go past the tombstones and fountain. Grab a pot then head up the stairs and to the right side. Throw the pot over the balcony onto the pressure point to release the gate.
Make your way to this little fenced in area and push the tombstone aside to raise the gate blocking the door. Head through the door and kill the rats inside. (The chest in this room contains 10 Dindi and is accessible after completing Savoca Prison.) Press forward through the next door to reach the outside again. Speak with the man Cosetta is barking at to obtain some valuable info and the Cosetta the Lost Dog trophy.

Enter the water field at this tree and head south. Exit at the first available bank to reach a wooden fence with greenery in the middle of it as pictured below.
Use your sword to remove the greenery and proceed forward. Head into the water again using the only available bank. Once in the water, make your way north and go through the first narrow opening. Stick close to the narrow strip of grass jutting out into the water to find an opening in the grass that you can slip through. Do so then head south until you reach the main land. Exit the water then head north and push the box out of the way to open up the shortcut to Kidoge Village. Next, head all the way south until you reach the dead end.

The Owl Village

Click here for a guide on how to receive the second Owl Village Key! Once you obtain the key, make your way to the northern part of Pansa Hills.
You’ll go past Ursula’s Mill and then will need to follow the signs for Camaro Woods. You’ll know you’re in the spot when you see a bunch of snow. Head up the mountain using the coat from the Kangmi Fur side quest, the coat bought outright from Jafar in Rodia Town or just a bunch of healing items. After you head up a snowy slope and eventually cross a tree branch, you’ll come to a tower missing half a symbol.
The key you have on you will automatically be placed in the missing spot. Next, head down the tree to the right (east) of you to find the second tower with half a key.
As you approach it, the other key will automatically go into the slot and Encore will talk to you. Head through the archway behind the second tower to trigger a cutscene where you’ll enter the Owl Village.

You’ll need to find his sister Topa in Jacu Oasis. She’ll be dressed in red and her house is the tallest in Jacu Oasis with a big windmill on top. He suggests that the blacksmith might be able to help us turn the rod she’ll give us into a lever to replace the missing one. Furthermore, he’ll say that we need something to resist the incredible heat during the day but at night we should be prepared for the extreme cold. Since it’s still night in the game, you’ll need to prepare for the cold. As such a Kangmi Coat is in order. Click here for a guide on how to get one from the Kangmi Fur side quest! Once you’re prepared for the cold, travel to the Bobo Temple fast travel point then exit this area via the western map transition.

You’ll pass a Minisio’s Map Shop along the way.
Be sure to stop in and grab the map for the desert! Eventually, you’ll reach Jacu Oasis! Speak with Topa, who is wearing all red to receive the ancient rod and complete the quest. Before this rod can be used as a lever, it’ll need to be fixed by the blacksmith in Rodia.
