Guide: Find All 8 Reede Voters for Cece's Mushroom Campaign in Zelda

In Hateno Village, tucked into the East Necluda region of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, there's a small political theater playing out. Cece, a fashion-minded resident who runs a shop in the village, has called for a mayoral election and wants your help swaying voters her way. Her strategy is straightforward: hand out eight Hylian mushrooms to supporters of the incumbent Mayor Reede, hoping the gesture will flip their allegiance.

This side quest, called Team Cece or Team Reede, is unusual for a Zelda game because it asks almost nothing of you in terms of combat or long-distance travel. Instead, you'll spend your time walking through a single village, talking to residents, and learning the rhythms of their daily routines. The core challenge is identifying which villagers actually support Reede—and which ones already back Cece. The distinction is visual: Reede's supporters wear ordinary clothes, while Cece's fans have dressed themselves in mushroom-themed outfits, often including a distinctive hat. Once you've spotted the obvious ones, the hunt becomes more deliberate.

Cece will brief you when you visit the Armor Shop, and from there you're on your own to locate eight specific people. Leop, an older man, tends to wander near the town center, often near Cece's shop or the inn. Tamana runs a chicken operation near the south gate and can be found there at any hour. Medda tends tomatoes during daylight and is visible in his fields. Uma, an elderly woman, works in a field below Hateno School during the day but becomes easier to intercept during the evening when she walks home across a nearby bridge. Dantz works in the pasture in East Hateno, partway up the road toward the Ancient Tech Lab, during daylight hours. His daughter Koyin stands by the lake near that same pasture. Tokk, an older man, spends time sitting by a cooking pot in the pasture and also takes walks up to the Tech Lab—the latter location makes him easier to catch. Worten, married to the inn's receptionist, can be found either on the inn's balcony or covering the front desk.

The quest design rewards observation and patience. You don't need to give mushrooms to children, travelers, scientists, people already wearing Cece's mushroom gear, or members of Reede's own family. This narrows your search and forces you to pay attention to who actually lives and works in the village. Timing matters too: some residents are only available during specific hours, so you may need to wait or return at different times of day to complete your rounds.

Once all eight mushrooms have been distributed, you return to Cece with the news. The quest completes without fanfare—no dramatic confrontation, no election night scene. It's a low-stakes errand that gives the village texture and makes Hateno feel like a place where people have routines, preferences, and reasons to care about local politics. If you're in the area, the Ancient Tech Lab nearby offers Purah Pad upgrades worth pursuing as well.
