After hearing the story of the game, you are in your own house. Exit to the outside and your Kokiri friend, Saria, will call you. Climb down the ladder and talk to her. She'll congratulate you on getting a fairy guardian and tell you about the Great Deku Tree wanting to see you. Go right and find a cave entrance. A Kokiri guy named Mido is blocking the entrance and says you need a sword and shield before entering. Geez Louise, no need to get your undies in a knot! Okay, so find at least 40 rupees in the bushes. You can also enter Mido's House (next to the boy with all the rocks) and find some Rupees in his treasure chests (he he he!) After you have 40, find the red roofed store and enter. By the way, before you enter the store, a Kokiri will call you. Z-Target her and press A. She'll talk to you about Z-Targeting people. Anyway, buy the *Deku Shield* inside the store. Exit and go right. Go up a hill to where the Know-It-All-Brothers House and a Kokiri Training Ground is. You can learn some new abilities here. Anyway, enter the hole on the Training Ground. Be careful of the big boulder rolling around. Follow it around until you can turn right. Then follow it around more until you can turn right again. Open the chest and receive the *Kokiri Sword*! Exit to the forest. Press Start and go to the Equipment Subscreen where the sword and shield are listed. Select both of them and press A. Now they are equipped. Press Start to return to the game. Go back to Mido and show him your new equipment. He'll finally let you enter. Using the sword, cut the Deku Babas to receive Deku Sticks. You may want to equip them to the C-Button items (pause and go to the Item Subscreen, highlight the Deku Sticks and press a C-Button, except C-Up, then return to the game). Continue to the Great Deku Tree. He will explain his problem and when you accept the challenge, enter the Deku Tree to start the journey. This room will be referred to as the main room. Once inside, go left to a ladder. Go up and around until you reach a treasure chest. Open it to receive the Dungeon Map. Go around more and enter the door there. Use the shield to bop a nut back at the Deku Scrub. Chase him and when you're close enough, he'll give up and offer a good hint. Continue through the newly opened door. Jump on the platform and then across to another chest. Open it to get the *Fairy Slingshot*. You cannot exit using the platform, so use the slingshot and hit the ladder on the wall to drop it. Climb back up and backtrack to the main room. Use the slingshot on the spiders to clear the wall. Climb up to the top floor. Go around until you find another door. Enter! Step on the switch on the right and use the platforms as a path. Quickly cross to a chest and open it to get the compass. In this room, defeat the Big Skulltula and get the *Golden Skulltula* behind it. To return to the main room, use a Deku Stick on the lit torch to light the other one and open the door. Back in the main room, beat a Giant Skulltula. Look below. There is a big spider web covering a giant hole. With a great amount of force, you can jump down from here and break the web. Land in the centre of the web or it won't work. When you break the web, you'll drop down to a watery basement. In here, get the *Golden Skulltula* on the ivy wall and another *Golden Skulltula* on the bars covering a tunnel. Climb up a platform and jump on the switch to light a torch. Use it to light a Deku Stick and walk over the shallow part of the water to another platform (the one you can reach easiest). Use the lit stick on the spider web to burn it and reveal a door. Enter it, of course! Bop another Deku Scrub and you'll be given another important hint. Remember this numeric order: 2 3 1 (he says twenty-three is number one, which, according to Nintendo, may be referring to Michael Jordan, number 23 is number 1! Cute!!) Anyway, use the slingshot to hit a yellow eyeball switch on the wall. Enter the newly unlocked door. Another puzzle.... Navi mentions diving underwater to find some interesting things. Dive underwater to find a switch. When you hit it, the water lowers, so you can use the platform without being hit by the rotating bar with sharp spikes on it! Quickly, get on the platform and cross over the water. Beat the Giant Skulltula and push the block right over (Navi will explain pushing, pulling and climbing blocks.) Climb the box to a door and enter. Light the two torches with a Deku Stick to enter the next room. Avoid walking into the centre of the room as some annoying enemies will drop down (see the eggs on the ceiling?) Light a Deku Stick using the lit torch and burn more spider webs. One opening has a Deku Scrub and a wall. You can later return here to bomb the wall and get a Golden Skulltula. I’ll bring it up again later. Burn the other wall and enter the tunnel. We are now on the high platform you couldn't reach before. Push the block into the water to create a jumping path to the other side. Go over to the torch and light a stick up. Use the box to go back to the big spider web and burn it (press the C Button the stick is designated to and swing it). You'll drop down to an area with three scrubs. Remember 2 3 1? Bop the Scrubs in order (middle, right, left). When you bop the scrub on the left, he'll give you a hint on beating the boss you'll soon face: Queen Ghoma. Enter the door and face the boss. See the boss section for details on beating Queen Ghoma. When this easy boss is finished, collect the Heart Container and step into the blue light. You'll be transported outside the Deku Tree and you'll hear another story. Then the Deku Tree will give you your first Spiritual Stone: the *Kokiri Emerald*, then he will slowly pass away. How sad :o( Unfortunately, you couldn't do anything to stop that. When you go to exit the area, Mido will block you and tell you it's all your fault (naturally...) Head to the upper level of the forest and into the Lost Woods. Take the path right to find a target across the way. Use your Fairy Slingshot to hit the bulls-eye three times in a row (three 100s appear). A Deku Scrub will reward you with an item upgrade, the *Bigger Deku Seed Bag* which holds a maximum of 40 seeds. Now, you are ready to continue to Hyrule Field. Exit and go to the other side of the forest across from where you are and the little boy won't be blocking the area anymore. When you exit the forest and are crossing the bridge, Saria will stop you and give you the *Fairy Ocarina*, a very helpful item. Another sad moment :o( When I first played this game, I thought it was so sad that I did something wrong! But, no, you are supposed to leave and you won't die like the Kokiri would, as you are really a Hylian. You'll learn this later on. Sorry if I spoiled a big secret for you!
