Hestu's Concerns is a Side Adventure found in Tears of the Kingdom.

Overview

North of the New Serenne Stable, Hestu can be found a little ways up the mountain. Speak with him and he will say he's scared of the nearby trees.
Walk over to the two nearby trees and they will reveal themselves to be Evermeans, enemies that mimic actual trees. Use an Axe weapon, Fire Fruit Arrows, or another viable method to defeat them.
Return to Hestu and he will notice the enemies are gone. He offers to upgrade your pouch, but cannot as his maracas don't work. They no longer contain Korok Seeds needed to complete the process.
If Link has not already obtained a Korok Seed, he will have to obtain one by finding a hidden Korok.
Once Link has a Korok Seed, Hestu will offer to upgrade a stash - either Weapon, Bow, or Shield. Upgrading one stash will complete the side quest

Note that if Link completes a dungeon before meeting Hestu, Hestu will move to Lookout Landing. While the Side Adventure will still trigger when he is spoken to, the part with the Evermeans will be skipped, and the quest will merely involve him being bored and wanting to dance, but missing Korok Seeds. It will still complete as soon as Link upgrades a stash.
