Side Quests
Young Link’s Trading Sequence
1) After you talk to the guard at the entrance to Death Mountain, he'll mention about a mask he wants to get for his son from the Happy Mask Shop in the Market. If you go there, the shop is open for business and you can borrow the Keaton Mask. Give it to the guard and he'll wear it for the rest of the game (in the past, when he's there.) I wonder if he actually got it for himself.....
2) Next, borrow the Skull Mask and bring it to the Skull Kid in the Lost Woods (go left from the entrance.)
3) Next, borrow the Spooky Mask and bring it to the kid playing in Kakariko Village Graveyard.
4) Next, borrow the Bunny Hood and bring it to the running man in Hyrule Field. He's always running behind Lon Lon Ranch. Follow him during the day, then give the mask to him at night. Now, when you see him, he'll be running much, much faster!
5) Now, you can borrow the Mask of Truth to get hints from Gossip Stones or borrow the other masks you sold or even borrow the Goron, Zora and Gerudo masks just for fun.
Adult Link’s Trading Sequence
1) Go to the Cucco Lady in Kakariko Village and she'll give you a Pocket Egg. Play the Sun's Song twice for it to hatch. When it hatches, it becomes a Pocket Cucco. Go to the house on the left side of the village next to the stairs going up. Talon is in there, sleeping. Stand next to him and bring out the Pocket Cucco. He'll awake and later leave for Lon Lon Ranch. Bring the cucco back to the Cucco Lady and she'll give you a blue Cucco named Cojiro. He rarely crows, only to his owner, the lady's brother (he's the weird guy who sits under the tree in the village at night when you're a kid.)
2) Go to the Lost Woods and turn left. Show Cojiro to the man sitting there. He'll give you an Odd Mushroom. You have 3 minutes to bring it to the old hag in the Potion Shop in Kakariko Village. Go back to the village on foot, using Epona in Hyrule Field (warping never works) and go to the Potion Shop near the Death Mountain entrance. Then go through the back door and use the stairs nearby to get to the old hag. She'll give you an Odd Potion. BTW, if it’s nighttime, the store is closed. Exit back to Hyrule Field and quickly play the Sun’s Song to daytime, then re-enter.
3) Take the Odd Potion back to the Lost Woods. The guy isn't there, but a Kokiri girl is. Give her the potion and you'll get a Poacher's Saw.
4) Take the Poacher's Saw to Gerudo Valley and give it to the master carpenter standing in front of the tent. He'll give you a Broken Goron's Sword.
5) Take the broken sword to Biggoron on top of Death Mountain. His eyes are bothering him, so he'll give you a Prescription.
6) Take the prescription to King Zora in Zora's Domain. He'll give you an Eyeball Frog. You have 3 minutes to take it to the lab in Lake Hylia. Run, Forrest, run!
7) Take the eyeball frog to the weird scientist in the lab in Lake Hylia. He'll give you Eyedrops. You now have 4 minutes to take them to Biggoron on top of Death Mountain. Run again! Use the plant on the trail to reach the part of the mountain where you climb up.
8) Give the eyedrops to Biggoron and watch the funny cinema. He'll give you a Claim Check. Play the Sun's Song a few times and he'll finally give you the Biggoron's Sword! Whew!
Gerudo Training Grounds
Pay the girl 10 rupees to enter the Training Grounds. Finish the training to receive the Ice Arrows. You need to have the Hover Boots, Megaton Hammer, Longshot, Silver Gauntlets and Lens of Truth in order to get the prize. In the training, you must collect a bunch of keys to open some doors in one room, leading you to a big chest with the Ice Arrows. Here is what to do:
After entering the training grounds, go through the door on your left. You have 1 minute to beat both Stalfoses. Slash away with the sword until they're gone. Get the key from the chest (you now have 1 key.) Enter the next room. You now have 1 1/2 minutes to get all the Silver Rupees in this room. First, go left and grab one. Then, go forward and get one where boulders come out. Near there is a hookshot target. Hook up to a ledge, then drop down to get it. Go a bit further back to another target and grab another rupee. Then, the final rupee is blocked by a firewall. Find the path around it and grab it. All done! Find a firewall blocking a door. Hookshot to the target and enter that door. Defeat the four Wolfos that appear (you have to move to certain spots for them to come out.) Open the chest to receive some arrows. That door is fake. Instead, use the Lens of Truth to see an invisible hole above the door. Hookshot to the target and step on the switch. Backtrack down to the room and push the gray block using your Silver Gauntlets (that's what they mean by "silver hands.") Push the block all the way, then enter the door ahead. Beat the Like Likes, but don't open any chests, except the one that appears after beating the enemies. All the other chests are fake and will freeze you. In the good chest is a gold rupee! Now, use the Lens of Truth to see another chest with a key inside (you now have 2 keys.) Exit to the room before with the Wolfos. Go back up to the invisible cove above the door, then enter the door up there. Drop down to a rotating path around the room. Use the arrows to shoot each eye on that big statue. When you do, a chest appears. Hookshot/longshot to it and open it to receive another key (you now have 3 keys.) We're kind of stuck on the platform. There is a door up high in this room, but I can never seem to get up there, so let's leave it. It's not necessary to go there. Anyway, longshot to the target and enter the door, hopping over a small hole with lava underneath. Get rid of all those annoying enemies, get arrows from the chest, then use the Megaton Hammer on those statues. One of them has a switch behind it. Step on it for the fire to disappear from that chest. Quickly, open it and receive a key (you now have 4 keys.) Exit this room to a big lava-filled room with silver rupees. Guess what? You have to get them all :o) But, not quite. First, jump to that spot where Navi turns green at. Play the Song of Time to reveal two blue blocks. Climb up them and receive a key out of its chest (you now have 5 keys)! Now, you can get all those silver rupees. On one platform is a switch. Get over there wearing the Hover Boots and step on the switch. The fire covering a rupee is gone. Get over there and grab that last rupee. Enter the newly unlocked door. Play the Song of Time to make that block disappear, then equip the Zora Tunic and Iron Boots. More wonderful silver rupees! First, use the hookshot on the Shell Blades to get rid of them. Then, use it to hook onto the targets and grab some rupees. Then, take off the Iron Boots and swim around to get the other high ones. When they're all gone, go back up to the surface and get the key from the chest (you now have 6 keys.) Go back to the big lava room and go through the left door. You now have 1 ½ minutes to beat all the enemies (2 Dinolfos and 1 Beamos.) When they're gone, get the key from the chest (you now have 7 keys.) Exit to the first room with the lion heads and doors. Go through the middle door to the room with all kinds of locked doors and the big chest with the special prize in the middle. Go through the left side and you should be able to open all the doors, open some small chests on the way for some items and then, finally, open the big chest for the Ice Arrows. Way to Go! Backtrack to the main room with the three lion heads and doors, then exit.
