"All of my research suggests that the legendary jötunn should reside somewhere in this land... Is there no proof to be found?" —Diligent Student

The Slumbering Giant is a side story in Octopath Traveler. It is activated by speaking to the Diligent Student in the tavern at Flamesgrace.

Use the Inquire/Scrutinize Path Action on the Muttering Codger to glean the knowledge Where the Ice Giant Sleeps. It's mandatory to initiate the fight with a story boss.

Travel to the Western Flamesgrace Wilds and enter the Hoarfrost Grotto (Danger Level 25). Defeat the Jötunn at the end of the dungeon to obtain the Jötunn Horn. Give this item to the Diligent Student to complete the side story.

The scholar rejoiced upon receiving the horn of a jötunn, vowing with newfound resolve to persevere in his research into these elusive creatures.
