How to Get the 4 Swords and 6 Bottles
4 Swords
Here is the best way to get the 4 Swords:
1) You start with the Kokiri Sword, so that's easy.
2) Complete the following: On Day 1, slow down time; defeat Odolwa and Goht (Woodfall and Snowhead Temples); have the Hero's Bow and at least 1 bottle; compete in the Goron Races and win the Gold Dust; have at least 200 rupees in your wallet (which means having the Adult Wallet); after all that, return the time to normal speed.
3) Go to the Mountain Village and enter the log cabin with your Kokiri Sword on Day 1. Pay the smithy 100 rupees to upgrade to the Razor Sword. Exit the cabin and advance to Day 2.
4) Pick up the Razor Sword. Talk to him again to upgrade to the Gilded Sword. Pay another 100 rupees and give him the gold dust. Exit and advance to Day 3. Pick up your new sword and bottle.
5) Go back to Day 1 and your Gilded Sword is in your status from now on!
6) To get the Great Fairy's Sword, which does not replace the Gilded Sword, but instead is used as a C-button item, you need to find all 15 stray fairies in Stone Tower Temple and visit Ikana's Great Fairy Fountain. See Stray Fairies page for help.
Where to Get the 6 Bottles:
1) After you get your ocarina back, go to Southern Swamp and behind the Potion Shop is the forest. Talk to the monkey in front and follow him to Kotake, who has fallen (and can't get up). Go to the Potion Shop and talk to Koume to get a free bottle of red potion. If you're a good hero, you'll give the red potion to Kotake. You get to keep the bottle.
2) After you beat Goht in Snowhead Temple, get permission to carry the powder kegs by doing the task (see walkthrough for Mountain Village). After you have access to the giant bomb kegs, use one to get into the Goron Races. Carry one from the guy that gave you the task to the area where Tingle is. At the end of the area, turn right and throw the bomb up each of the steps to the top. Place it in front of the giant boulder. Compete in the Goron Races. When you come in first place, you win Gold Dust inside a bottle.
3) At Romani Ranch, when you help Romani defeat the alien creatures, you win a bottle of milk.
4) In Great Bay, in the second area on the beach, go far left, still on the beach and hookshot to the high tree. Continue hookshoting until you reach a cave. As Zora Link, enter it to the Beavers' Hideout. Jump into the water and approach the beaver. Race him and make sure you get through all 20 rings. That is the goal, since you can't actually cross the finish line before the beaver. If you win, you need to race his brother through 25 rings. Win that race and you get a bottle. If you exit the hideout and race them both again and win both times, you get a Heart Piece.
5) On Day 3, go to Ikana Graveyard at night. Wearing the Captain's Hat, order the skeletons to break the gravestone they are guarding. Drop down the hole and meet Dampé, the gravekeeper. Talk to him and he'll let you help him search for "treasure" by using Tatl as his light. Dampé is extremely slow, so Z-target him and slowly make your way to each sand pit. He'll dig each one you approach. Your goal is to dig up three blue flames. After you finish on the bottom floor, get Dampé onto the elevating platform and guide him up to the top floor. There are two pits up there and one of them is a flame. Once all three flames are exposed, a big Poe appears. Fight him using arrows. When he's gone, a chest appears. Open it for a bottle.
6) In Anju and Kafei's Quest (see Side Quests), give the Express Mail to Kafei's mother in person and you get a bottle filled with Chateau Romani.
