Map

Seen from above, north up. The pins mark chests, Gold Skulltulas, Pieces of Heart, people, shops, enemies, and exits, and each one links to its page. The buttons show or hide each kind; + and - zoom in and out, and a zoomed map can be dragged. The pins of the Master Quest maps are where things are in Master Quest. The grotto maps come last, numbered as in the Grottos table.

Story

What happens in Lake Hylia in the main story, with the lines from its cutscenes. All the steps in order are on the quests page.

Step 12 (Young Link)

Open the waterfall with the royal song. A letter in a bottle from the lake tells the king where his daughter went.

Step 22 (Adult Link)

The Zoras are frozen and the lake has dried up. Find the boots in the ice cave and clear the temple under the lake.

As the water rises, the evil is vanishing from the lake... Link, you did it!

Did Ruto want to thank me?

I see....

We have to return peace to Hyrule for her sake, too. Don't we?

Look at that, Link...

Together, you and Princess Ruto destroyed the evil monster!

Once again, the lake is filled with pure water. All is as it was here.

Ruto's letter is found in a bottle here. Shoot the rising sun from the island to get the Fire Arrow.

Signed by Princess Ruto, daughter to King Zora, the note revealed her last known location—feeding the Lord Jabu-Jabu.

Lake Hylia is joined to Zora's Domain by an underwater gate; Link needs the Silver Scale to use the tunnel.

Seine Suche führt ihn zunächst zum Hylia-See, der durch ein Unterwassertor mit dem Reich der Zoras verbunden ist.

Besides Ruto's letter, Lake Hylia lets Link fish in the north-east, where one prize is a heart piece.

So hat er im Nordosten des Sees Gelegenheit, zu angeln und dort unter anderem ein Herzteil zu erhalten.

The Serenade of Water warps Link to the nearly dried-up lake; he enters the Water Temple with the Iron Boots and Zora Tunic.

Mit der Serenade des Wassers warpt sich Link zum beinahe ausgetrockneten Hylia-See und betritt mittels der Eisenstiefel und der Zora-Rüstung den Wassertempel.

On the small island is a stone with an inscription; from there Link shoots an arrow into the rising sun.

Auf der kleinen Insel, auf der Link sich gerade befindet, gibt es einen Stein mit einer Inschrift.

A Deku Scrub in a bombed grotto sells a Piece of Heart for 10 rupees.

Link bringt ihn zur Räson, und schon bietet er ihm ein Herzteil für läppische 10 Rubine an!

Landing a heavy fish at the fishing pond is worth a Piece of Heart.

Eines Tages fängt er in der Tat einen richtig schweren Brocken - dieser ist immerhin ein Herzteil wert!
