“Dahuang” starts in the Village of Lu, near the Survivors’ Courtyard bell: a sleeping hunter with a flower mask tells you about his dog and gives you a bell. It ends in Pangzhen, near the Pond of Fading Song bell, when you find Dahuang’s body. No source mentions a reward. It is missable if you climb the stairs behind the Green Serpent House without finishing it.
Where does Dahuang start?
In the Village of Lu, during Heartless Remnants. From the Survivors’ Courtyard bell, leave the courtyard and look northeast: there is a house with red lanterns that you climb up to. Inside, at the back on the right, is the sleeping hunter with a flower mask. He tells you Dahuang’s story and gives you a bell (in English, Hunter’s Dog Bell), which triggers the tale.

- Look for DahuangIn Pangzhen, go to the Pond of Fading Song bell and head east to a gate with a red banner on each side. Go in, open the cages and examine the dead dog in the courtyard where the Memory Flower is. That completes the tale.
Rewards
Neither Vandal (Spanish guide) nor Fextralife mentions a reward for finishing it; the only thing you receive is the hunter’s bell at the start.
According to Vandal, when you climb the stairs behind the Green Serpent House (Pangzhen) almost every pending tale fails, and this one is not among those that survive. Look for Dahuang before then. More in the points of no return.
