Swamp [MC.03.06]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Walk back to the city with the miners and talk to the blacksmith. Your sword
will be fixed and you'll get it back. Go back outside, and grow. Jump down in
the south and make your way back to Hyrule Town. When you are back in the
area around Hyrule (the screen east from the mountain), go all the way east,
but stay on the screen. From here, go north and east, and you'll find a broken
bridge. You can now launch yourself onto the platform, and hit the switch, so
the bridge will be created. This is just a shortcut that allows you to travel
faster when needed. You'll be back at the screen north of town.
Go back to the place where those men were working when you came back from the
first dungeon. If you haven't got a clue where that is, it's near the farm.
On the northeastern side of the screen is a hole, where you can launch
yourself up. Follow the path, then enter the tree to find the second Big
Fairy. Answer two times with the first option when she asks you something,
and you'll get an even bigger wallet. Now head back to the castle, and go
inside.
Inside, go east, and climb up the stairs. After that... go down the stairs,
into the basement of the castle. Find the door that leads outside, and when
you are outside, go north again... to go inside again! Keep heading north, and
place your sword in the pedestal. A big tablet will appear, and you'll learn
a new technique. Stand on the left flashing tile facing north, and build up
the power in your sword (press and hold the attack button) until the green bar
is filled. Then step on the other tile. This is the way to clone yourself for
a short period of time, and become a bit stronger. Go south, and do the same.
With 2 Links, you can step on both tiles and leave the room. Note you can
remove the second Link by pressing the right shoulder button.
Walk back to Hyrule Town. On your way, you'll get attacked by Vaati and you'll
have to battle 2 Moblins. After this, your cap will tell who he really is, and
what connection he has with Vaati. From here, head west and bomb away the
rock. Go down the stairs, then down the other stairs and get the piece of
heart. Now go back to town, and go to the training hut. You'll learn how to
break bottles and rocks. This'll help you on your way, won't it?
Head back to where you got the ring at the mountain. Climb up, and enter the
cave. With the 2-Link technique, you can open the door, and in the new room
you'll find a piece of heart, a total of 100 rupees and a trainer. Talk to
the trainer to learn how to roll, and use your sword. You can also fuse a
stone with him. This will open an entrance in the swamp which we'll enter
later.
I'll get back on what you can do in town later, for now, we'll continue the
story. Go to the place you got your first bottle. When you go down the ladder,
you'll see those flashing tiles again. Use them, and push the block away.
Climb the stairs now. Bomb the entrance north of you, and open the chest for
a red stone. Leave the game and go south. Before leaving to the next screen
(you don't need to enter the tree yet), go around the trees, and north again.
Push the rock into the hole to go back more easily, and then go south, and
this time, do go to the new screen.
A new cutscene will start, and you'll see what Vaati does to the King. We
should get back to the town now, but let's first explore a bit more. When you
go south, west, north and west again, you'll end up at the swamp. We'll come
back here later, so remember it. There is a tree near, and a woman inside
that wants to fuse a stone. She'll open a path for you, so head there. When
you are there, fuse a stone with the woman over there. There is nothing to
do in the house so far. When you are done, find a rock you can push in a hole
and go east, and you'll end up near the town. Head to the town.
So, back in town again, eh? Go to the shoe shop. The man will really fall
asleep this time, and knock the shoes off the table. Shrink, and get up the
desk. Talk to the little creatures here, and they'll tell you to get to the
witch hut. Alright. Grow again and leave town, to the east.
You'll find a farm, which you probably saw earlier. However, Maron and her
father lost the key for the house, and can't enter. Shrink, and enter the
house. You can grow again, grab the key (in a bottle), shrink, go outside,
grow, and give the key. Now the door will be opened for you, and you can
enter the house, so you can go to the other side of the farm. Do so.
When you go north and west. Enter the cave and push the block away. The chest
contains 50 rupees. Leave, and go east. Don't enter the new screen, but head
north and follow the path. Push the rock in the hole, and launch yourself up
on the platform. Shrink and head east. When you enter the small crack, you'll
find a chest that contains a red stone. Go back and grow again. Use the
tornados to go all the way south and enter the new screen.
Go south, and west again. Push the rock in the hole, and go up the ladder. You
can use the tornado to go to the platform on the west. Jump down here, and
push the other rock in the hole. Give the Goron a stone he wants (if you have
it). This will get a Goron in town, but we'll get back to that later. Go back
east into the forest. From here, go south.
Remember the piece of heart I told you about before you even found the first
dungeon, and I told you, you couldn't get it? Well now you can (makes you
happy, right?). Go southwest, and grab the piece of heart here. Take the other
path now, and you'll find the hut of the witch. Enter it, and buy the mushroom
for 60 rupees. You can also get potions here, but fairies are far better, so
just stick with those. Go back to the farm now.
Northwest of this screen (where the farm is), is a hole you can use to launch
yourself up. It'll lead to a whole new area, but you can find a piece of heart
here by following the path. Now go back to the shoe shop. Talk to the man, and
he'll make Pegasus Boots for you, which allow you to run away faster.
Now, let's do some things in town, shall we? I'm listing the people who want
to fuse stones now, since you should have quite a few already.
* Remember you can give stones to the musician.
* You can go to the garden of the castle now. Cut away the bushes at the
southeast and climb down. Enter the room here. The trainer won't teach you
a single thing yet, but you can get another piece of heart.
* You can buy milk from Maron in the north of town for 100 rupees. Once
again, I prefer faries for healing, since they work on their own.
* If you gave the Goron the stone, you can now find a Goron in town that sells
stones.
* If you cleaned the other place before from the dust, you'll find a guy that
sells spirits.
* The trainer is ready to teach you another skill. This time you'll learn how
to use your Pegasus Boots in combination with your sword.
* I forgot earlier, but it doesn't matter. Near the northern gate, you'll find
another checkpoint.
* You can play the chicken-game, but I suggest to do it later, when you can
really finish it.
* You can visit the bakery, and buy bread, pie and sandwiches. It doesn't
matter if you buy a more expensive one, randomly they'll contain stones.
* In the east is a hotel. You can sleep here. The more expensive the room,
the better the stone you'll find in the chest.
* Find the postman and fuse a shone with him. After that, go to the house
where some guy is working with postcards. When you go there, a woman will
be waiting. Give her 200 rupees, leave, and enter again, and a book will
be there to read.
* Find the house with the dog. Enter it, and flip the transformer. Shrink, go
outside, and enter the hotel via the rear. Grow here, and you'll find a
piece of heart. Note you can fuse with the dog in the house.
* Enter the bakery as mini-Link from the east side, and climb the closet etc.
When you enter the left hole, you'll end up at a chest with 100 rupees.
* You can reach the southwestern part of town now, by crossing the bridge as
mini-Link, and then entering the first house you see from the rear. Here you
can grow and look around.
* Enter the tree in the south. Here you can trade shells for figurines.
Now you have the Pegasus Boots, head to the swamp. With the Pegasus Boots, you
are able to run over the water. Head to the west until you find a door you
can enter. Follow the path in the new room until you end up at a room with
a chest. When you enter, the chest will appear, and an Mighty Darknut will
appear. Kill it. The chest will appear again and you can open it for a gold
stone. We'll need three of those. Go back outside.
Climb the vine and go north. Climb down again when you can and go north. Enter
the door here and defeat the Deku Scrub. He wants to fuse a stone with you.
Go back, and head a bit south. Cross the swamp to the west and shrink. Follow
the small path until you end up in a crack. When you kill the lice here, and
open the chest, you'll get the bow. Go back outside, grow again and cross the
swamp back to the east.
Shoot an arrow in the eye of the statue. When you climb the vine, and use the
tornado to cross the water, you'll find a stone. Push it away, and enter it
for a piece of heart. Remember this place, because we'll need the trainer for
later. Go outside.
From here, go southwest, and you'll find a new checkpoint. Push the stone into
the hole, then shoot an arrow in the eye of the statue. Climb up and follow
the path. Use the tornado to go south. Push the rock in the hole here, then
enter the door. The chest here contains another gold stone. Only one other is
needed.
Go back to the first vine you climbed, and go up. Follow the path north, until
you reach a new statue. You know what to do. Go north and enter the cave. The
last gold stone is here. Leave, and go south. Push the rock into the hole.
Climb a vine that leads to a platform that's connected to any of the other 3
platforms (check the map). Follow it west, and stop the statue from blocking
your way. You'll find a chest with a blue stone. Now go all the way southwest.
All the big statues want a gold stone, so give them one each, and they'll open
the path south. Go there.
Climb the stairs and bomb the cave. Inside you'll find a chest with a blue
stone. Leave and go south. You'll see a guard. When you come near it, it'll
start to attack. When you killed it, continue down the path. Shrink, and climb
into the next guard. Active it, and grow again. Now you can kill it and go to
the next screen.
Kill all the Tektites on your way, and go north. When you killed them all,
the way won't be blocked and you can go north again. Follow the path until
you find a stump. Kill the Ropes, then shrink and go left. Yes, go left. After
some climbing down, you'll end up in a cave. Follow the path and you'll find a
piece of heart. Now go back to the stump (stay small) and active the guard.
Now grow again, kill the guard and push the rock into the hole. Follow the
path once again.
There are 4 guards here, but only 3 can be killed for now. When you do, you'll
have access to 2 chests that contain 50 rupees and 50 shells. After that,
shrink again and disable the guard. Grow and continue to go south. Follow the
path here. You'll need to kill all the enemies in order to be able to
continue north. You'll enter the third dungeon after a short walk.
