Walkthrough · 1 / 4
Training ground
Link’s house → southwest training ground
- Leave the house and climb toward the fenced training area.
- At its back, find the small stone opening and crawl through.
Training-area location reference: the star marks the area leading to the low opening. It helps with orientation, not a mandatory collection route.
The low opening at the training area: crawl through here to reach the area containing the sword chest.
If it goes wrong: If blocked by a wall, look low for the opening rather than a normal doorway.
Result / next stop: Reach the boulder training area.

Sword chest
Training passage → sword chest → village
- Watch the rolling boulder and follow it past the safe corners.
- Find the ladder, climb to the chest and take the sword; retrace the passage out.
Receiving the Kokiri Sword from the chest: confirms the item obtained. This image does not show the complete route to the chest.
If it goes wrong: Avoid chasing the boulder head-on; stop at a safe corner before moving. Exact safe spots need testing.
Result / next stop: Kokiri Sword acquired; return outside.

Buy a shield
Village → Kokiri Shop
- Collect enough Rupees for the shield by cutting grass or using other available sources. The house chests and training-area blue Rupees are optional alternatives, not a required route.
- Visit the shop and buy the Deku Shield. The reference image shows 40 Rupees; follow the price displayed in your game.
The Deku Shield shop menu: identifies the item and price. The image shows 40 Rupees; check your game.
Optional: nearby Rupees
Optional blue Rupee, first location: the pink circle marks a Rupee in the training area. Pick it up if convenient, or collect money by cutting grass and other methods; no detour is required.
Optional: nearby Rupees
Optional blue Rupee, second location: the pink circle marks another Rupee. This helps fund the shield; it is not a required step for obtaining the sword.
If it goes wrong: If you already have enough money, go straight to the shop; you do not need to find both blue Rupees.
Result / next stop: Sword and shield ready; prices and pickups await playtesting.

Pass Mido
Village east exit → Mido → Deku Tree
- Equip both items before speaking to Mido. Continue through the newly accessible passage.
- Defeat the plants along the path, collect sticks when available, and speak to the tree to enter.
Mido blocking the passage: equip the sword and shield, then speak to him here to continue toward the Deku Tree.
Plants and the stick prompt on the way to the Deku Tree: a reminder to prepare sticks for later fire puzzles, not a requirement to collect a fixed number here.
The Deku Tree exterior and story scene: confirms the destination, rather than showing an entrance interaction or puzzle solution.
If it goes wrong: If Mido refuses, recheck equipped gear. Bring spare sticks; the suggested three are preparation, not an entry requirement.
Result / next stop: Enter the first dungeon as child Link.
