Now that you have a Fused Shield, you need to go to the Gerudo Shelter, located north of the Gerudo Desert. You can get there using your Loftwing or traveling through the portals. Once you are there, wait until it’s evening and equip your Fused Shield. Then, talk to Ashai, who is a teacher at the shelter. She will ask you to help her with her class, which consists of three students: Deltan, Riju, and Urbosa.

Agree to help Ashai, and she will ask you to show your Fused Shield to the students. Each student will have a different reaction to it and ask you a question. You can answer them however you like, but you need to repeat this process until it’s Deltan’s turn. He will recognize your Fused Shield as a Ring Garland and tell you a story about it.
