Hey! If I call you, press C-Up right away!

I can tell you're not very used to your Deku Scrub body yet.

All right, listen up! If you press and hold A as a Deku Scrub while standing on a Deku Flower, you can dive into it.

If you wait a bit before releasing A, you'll launch out of the flower. Press A while flying to descend.

Did you get that?

No
Yes

Are you sure?
One more thing: Press A when you're on the ground to perform a spin attack!

Ugh! That stench! This place stinks just like that poison swamp!

What do you think that is? The ashes in the center of it still look fresh...

This looks pretty light. Well, don't just stand there-- Press A to grab it and use Control Stick to move it!

This torch is still warm...

Be careful... I sense a lot of evil here.

Look! From up here, we have a better view of that shrine below.

Hey, I'm trying to tell you something... This torch is still warm, too.

What? It's an icicle! It's just like the one we saw outside!

Hmm...This is kind of big... It's gonna take more than average strength to move this thing!

What, you think you can push down something this big just by standing on top of it?

You're going to have to find some way to pound it down.

W-What just happened?! Everything has...

...started over...

Wha...What are you, anyway? That song you played... That instrument...

...That instrument!!!

Wait! That's it! Your instrument!!!

The mask salesman said that if you got back the precious thing that was stolen from you, he could return you to normal!

Did you completely forget or what?

He gives me the creeps! That mask salesman was the... Sorry...just thinking aloud.

But three days? Even if we never sleep, that still leaves us with a measly 72 hours! Talk about demanding!

Well, don't just stand there! We're going to see the Great Fairy!

Look, you wanna find the Skull Kid, don't you?

The Great Fairy will know what he's up to. She watches over everything.

And just between you and me, the Skull Kid is no match for the Great Fairy.

Go to the shrine near the North Gate. You'll find the Great Fairy in there!

That mask... The Skull Kid uses the power of that mask to do those terrible things.

Well...whatever it takes, we've gotta do something about it.

...The swamp, mountains, ocean and canyon that Tael was trying to tell us about...

I bet he was referring to the four areas just outside town. There's one in each compass direction.

But what do you suppose he meant by "the four who are there?"

I have no idea. He always skips important stuff. I guess we should just go and find out...

If we go through that gate straight ahead, we'll be heading in the direction of the swamp.

Oh! I remember this!
Tael and I drew this with the Skull Kid when we first met him...

He told us that he had been fighting with his friends and that they had left him all alone...

I'm sure it was because he was always playing tricks, so nobody wanted to play with him.

But to do what he did just because of that...

And once he got his power...

Oh no! The Great Fairy!

Hey, aren't you going to the
Great Fairy's shrine near the North Gate?

That Skull Kid has gone too far! We can't just let this happen!

Quick! We have to find the Stray Fairy in town and return the Great Fairy to normal!

What are you doing? Aren't you gonna take this fairy to the shrine near the North Gate?

The Great Fairy said the
astronomer knows the Skull Kid...

Hurry! We need to find a way to get out of town and to the observatory!

He said the secret route is in East Clock Town... So why aren't you going there?

Don't tell me you forgot the code!!!

I wonder how the astronomer knows the Skull Kid?

What's the Skull Kid doing all the way up there?!

Well, whatever... But aren't you at least interested in that thing that fell from the moon?

The door to the clock tower opens only once a year--at midnight on the eve of the carnival.

Did you hear those fireworks? I think the clock tower door has just opened!

Hey, you! C'mon! Press Z and talk to me!

There you go! See? You can do it if you try!

When I fly over to people or objects, use Z to look at them so you can talk to them.

Use Z Targeting to talk to people even if they're far away.

Or, if there's no one to target, you can use Z to look straight ahead.

But enough about that for now... Come over to this tree and check it out!

It's strange, but the way you look right now sort of looks like this tree...

It looks all dark and gloomy... almost like it could start crying any second now... How sad...

The four people Tael talked about...

Do you think he was talking about the spirit that was sealed inside that mask?

...Oh! Hey, you were pretty good out there! Have you done this before or what?

Now, just keep up that pace and save the other three!

Hey!

Um...

All that stuff I did to you... ...your horse... I...I apologize.

...Sorry.

There! I apologized! So don't hold it against me, got it?

Now then, we've helped the princess just like the monkey asked...

So now our next stop is in the mountains! Let's hurry and do something about that Skull Kid!

The quickest way to the mountains is through the North Gate!

The quickest way to the ocean is through the West Gate!

The quickest way to the canyon is through the East Gate!

What's with that Deku Scrub? It's just sleeping here like a lazy fool! What a pain!

Isn't this the Deku Scrub mark? I wonder if they worshiped here...

Whoa! He's frozen solid! Wow! He's one ancient Goron, isn't he?

What's that? There's something in the middle of that blizzard... Can't you see it?

Hey! Isn't this snowball bigger than the others?

Up here! Take a look at this! I bet if you had a weapon that was strong enough, one shot from it could pierce right through this!

Well, it might take two shots...

Aha! So the Gorons fall asleep if they hear the Goron's Lullaby! That's convenient...

Hey, how do you get up there? I don't see anything to climb on!

What can we use? There's really nothing here besides that jiggly blob.

Are these all piled on top of one another?

We've gathered them all together, so we just have to go to the Clock Tower and call them!

C'mon. Let's go before it's too late! I've had enough of all this!

C'mon! What are you doing? You can ask Jim about the secret route to the observatory!

Oh, why do we have to play these stupid brats' little games? C'mon! Hurry up and find them already!

I can't believe you let those brats beat you! What are you waiting for? Let's show 'em how it's done!

Don't you remember that
Deku Scrub who wanted the Moon's Tear? Don't tell me you forgot...

All right, so we know where the Skull Kid is. Let's go ask around the Clock Tower. Maybe we'll learn something!

Remember? You're a Deku, so why don't you try using this Deku Flower?

Only # left until morning!

Whoa!!! Look at the time! You don't even have three days left!

Whoa!!! Look at the time! You don't even have two days left!

Whoa!!! Look at the time! You don't even have a single day left!

Whoa!!! Look at the time! You don't even have half a day left!

Hey...hang on! Doesn't this look a little strange?

Isn't this... a Zora egg? I wonder how we can carry it?

That's a huge fish! I bet that thing could eat a small fish in a single bite...

Hey, what do you think that is? Out there in the bay, beneath where the gulls are flying... Can't you see it?

I can't see it, but I sense there's a thirst for blood looming all around us...

Don't you have a mask that can summon the unseen?

This mummy looks different... Sorta like it's here waiting for its human heart to be healed.

Well, do something! Haven't you figured it out yet?

Here! See! You always miss things like this. Take a look... The rocks are cracked here!

Whoa! That's a huge waterwheel!

Hmm...I get it... That huge waterwheel is powering this thing...

Why is this the only pillar that's a different color?

...Is this a mirror? This thing looks different from your everyday mirror.

That's no good!
It's not stopping! It's hopeless!

Wait! You still haven't solved the problem with the swamp at Woodfall!

Wait! You still haven't solved the problem with the mountains at Snowhead!

Wait! You still haven't solved the problem with the ocean at Great Bay!

Let them be! Don't you get it?

You're so insensitive!

Don't stop now! Look! You can get up there now!

L-Look!!

Isn't that your horse?!?

I smell salt in the air, so the
ocean must be near. But with this tall fence in the way, we can't go any farther.

If only you had a horse to ride, we could--Oops! Sorry.

Hmph! This fence is the worst! If we want to get up there, we'll have to jump this fence!

But you can't do it like this. I guess we'll have to give up...

This is no good! If we could just blast these snowballs out of the way, we could get through!

We have a good view of their leader's room from here.

And I bet if you needed to, you could shoot an arrow through these bars!

I thought this room was pretty dark...but now I get it.

!?! Don't tell me you still haven't figured it out?!?

Look! Can't you use the Hookshot on that chest?

If you could somehow step on top of that Octorok, I bet you'd be able to climb onto that central pillar.

But the Octorok is so squishy and it keeps squirming around... There's gotta be something you can do!

At slippery places like this, you can curl up as a Goron and roll your way across! Why don't you try it?
