Dondons live in a sanctuary located directly to the north of Lakeside Stable. Then you just glide directly to their location. Joju-u-u Shrine, if you look for the caretaker’s cooking pot in the distance. (Admittedly it’s kind of hard to see due to the murky fog around the area, but if you glide north, it’ll pop in.)

Dondons are used in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom.

What if you’ve got a large number of The luminous stone, you can feed dondons these stones and in return, they’ll poop out some gemstones. Based on some of our tests, you can get flint, amber, opal, topaz, sapphires, rubies, and diamonds, but it’s all up to your own luck. This isn’t a super solid way to grab gemstones, but since it takes time, you may as well test your luck if you have tons of luminous stones.

Before you dump all your luminous stones into dondons, note that you do need a ton of them to upgrade Radiant Armor, if you’re planning on doing that.

You can feed the dondons in the following ways:

1. Put a stone of light in front the dondon that you wish to feed.
2. Watch the Dondon as it eats its stone.
3. You should leave the area. (You can go do something else, but they won’t poop in front of you.)
4. Come back after approximately 10 minutes.
5. You can collect your loot around the sanctuary but it may not be exactly where you were when you left.
6. Repeat as desired.

And that’s all there is to it! There’s no other use for dondons that we know of, but this is ain’t too shabby.
