The Owl Forest begins in the Nevira Snowplains of Cyslodia.

When you enter the Nevira Snowplains for the first time, you’ll soon be forced into interacting with an Owl on a tree stump. This will whisk you off to a lush forest where you’ll encounter more of these strange Owls you’ve found so far. Speaking to the King will have him reward you with items based on how many Owls you’ve found so far and there are a total of 38 to track down throughout the game.

In order to complete the Sub-Quest, you’ll need to see all three Skits and then once you speak to the King after finding the 38th and final Owl, you’ll complete the Sub-Quest. There are three Trophies/Achievements related to this Sub-Quest and due to the level of some of the enemies in later locations, you won’t be able to find the last few Owls until you reach the post-game. Indeed the final six Owls will not even be available until you reach the final location in the game’s story.

Rinwell’s Field Skill will cause Hootle to appear and make a sound whenever you’re near an Owl that can be found. Hootle will also appear every time you enter an area to indicate that there’s one in this area, this doesn’t mean you’ll find one at that spot, you’ll need to wait until Hootle stays out to indicate you’re close to the bird. If you need assistance in tracking down the Owls, head to the Owl Overview page for a spoiler free list whereas the individual region pages will have a detailed breakdown of every Owl and their location.
