Skyward Sword Gratitude Crystals
Gratitude Crystals are a collectible in Skyward Sword that allows the player to receive rewards by helping the people of Skyloft. The following Skyward Sword Gratitude Crystals Guide contains all the information necessary to find and obtain all 80 Gratitude Crystals in Skyward Sword, as well as all Gratitude Crystal Rewards in Skyward Sword.
Gratitude Crystals are first mentioned during the Skyward Sword Missing Daughter Quest in which the player finds Batreaux's House while searching for a lost girl. After this, several quests open up allowing the player to obtain these crystals and trade them in for rewards, with the ultimate goal of allowing Batreaux to become human again. Similar to the Ocarina of Time 3D Gold Skulltulas, Turning in Gratitude Crystals yields different rewards based on the number of crystals gathered.
