Tales of the Shire offers a cozy Hobbit life full of gardening, fishing, and cooking, but it also includes clever riddles that test your wit. One of the trickiest is "The Water That Roars," a riddle given by Daisy Took that leads you to a hidden location in Bywater. If you're struggling to solve it, this guide will walk you through every step to uncover the mystery.

How to Unlock "The Water That Roars" Riddle


Before you can attempt this riddle, you must first complete "The Eye of the Lake" quest. If you haven’t done so yet, check our guide on completing "The Eye of the Lake" to unlock Daisy’s next challenge.
Once that’s done, return to Daisy Took to receive the riddle:
“In the heart of the forest, it calls. Where the river doesn’t run, it falls. Where the water doesn’t babble, it roars.”
This poetic hint points toward a waterfall—specifically, one hidden deep in the forest. But where exactly is it? Let’s break it down.

Finding "The Water That Roars" Location



The waterfall is located in the eastern part of the forest, and while the path isn’t straightforward, following these directions will lead you right to it:


  • Start from "The Eye of the Lake" spot (where you completed the previous riddle).
  • Take the right path into the forest and follow it until the trail splits.
  • Stay to the right at the fork and continue forward.
  • When you reach another split, go right again, passing through a round wooden archway made from a tree log.
  • Keep walking until you enter a wide clearing with a white bridge nearby.
  • Just before the bridge, look for blue sparkles—this is your destination!

  • The roaring sound of the waterfall confirms you’re in the right place. Interact with the sparkles to complete the riddle and earn your reward.

    Tips for Solving Daisy’s Riddles Faster


    • Listen for environmental clues—the sound of rushing water can help guide you.
    • Follow the right path consistently—many players get lost by taking wrong turns.
    • Complete riddles back-to-back—since "The Water That Roars" follows "The Eye of the Lake," doing them in sequence saves time.

    What’s Next After Solving the Riddle?


    Once you’ve solved "The Water That Roars," you’ll unlock new quests and deepen your Fellowship in Tales of the Shire. Keep an eye out for more of Daisy’s riddles—they’re a fun way to explore Bywater’s hidden secrets!
