BUSHES / POTS
|
|
 |
Bushes and pots are
seemingly inconspicuous,
but no matter where you
find them - dungeon,
garden or house -
destroy them! Yes! The
people of Hyrule are
just crazy about
where they keep their
rupees, and by throwing
pots around people's
houses (searching meekly
inside just isn't
customary) or ripping
plants apart, you'll
find all sorts of
goodies. It's not just
rupees you'll find,
either; health, bombs
and arrows are all up
for grabs. |

CAVES
|
|
 |
Hyrule's got hidden
caves dotted all over -
down wells, behind
cracked walls, in soft
mud - and no-one seems
to mind you digging or
bombing your way through
the land's crevices. All
for the best, really,
because caves hold the
best loot in all Hyrule,
such as heart pieces and
untold riches.

CHESTS
|
|
 |
Chests have been left
all over Hyrule. It
might be a prison cell,
a house or a dungeon,
but no matter what,
chests are always
unlocked. The custom in
Hyrule is to take all of
a chest's contents,
making sure you show as
little regard for the
owner as possible.

FISHING
|
 |
Fishing is a popular
past time in Hyrule, as
its both rewarding and
relaxing. You'll find a
fishing pond in Lake
Hylia, where fishermen
from all over the world
come to fish for a
Hylian Loach. It's said
that one can only be
caught by using a
secret, and highly
illegal sinking lure.
Without one, you'll
probably end up with a
much-derided catfish.
Meow. |

FORTUNE TELLERS
|
|
 |
For a small (or
sometimes not-so-small)
fee, a Fortune Teller
can give you helpful
information about your
future. It's not known
how they know your every
step, but when asked
they've been known to
mutter something like
"all legends are
scripted..."
But how would I know
what that means? I'm
just a kid! |

GREAT FAIRY
FOUNTAINS
|
|
 |
Great Fairies reside in
these magical fountains,
hidden all over Hyrule.
It's worth finding them,
because if you stay
truthful they've been
known to enhance your
magic, upgrade your
magic, or enlarge your
wallet/bomb bag/quiver.
If you're ever weary
from battle, pop in to
see one. They'll
replenish all your
health, and provide you
with Health Fairies for
you to bottle. |

HOUSES / RESIDENTS
|
|
 |
The residents of Hyrule
are exceedingly kind!
You can just storm into
a house and its occupant
will show no sign of
panic, or any other
expected emotion towards
a strange young
trespasser armed to the
teeth with weaponry.
None. Pretty much all of
these steel-nerved
residents are more than
welcoming, and ready to
have a chat about
anything.
Many of these people
will, as mentioned, be
more than happy for you
to smash all their pots
and loot all their
chests. |

KEYS
/ DOORS
|
|
 |
If you prefer to
adventure into the more
dangerous areas of
Hyrule, like the
numerous dungeons, you
won't get very far
without knowing about
keys and doors. It's
pretty simple; small
keys can be used once,
but you'll find plenty,
and big keys can be used
more than once, on
things like big chests
or Boss rooms. |

RUPEES
|
 |
Money makes the world go
round, and Hyrule's no
different. That
capitalist pig-dog of a
King could just
designate jobs, creating
a kind of authoritarian
wonderland where
Business Scrubs are
replaced by Ration
Scrubs, and Tingle
becomes the next Hero.
Anyway, Hyrulian
currency is the Rupee,
and different colours
denote different values.
Traditionally,
Green rupees are
worth one,
Blue, five, and
Red, twenty
rupees, but throughout
the ages bigger and
different coloured
rupees have been worth
higher amounts. |

SHOPS
|
 |
Hyrule is home to many
different business;
bars, bazaars, bomb
shops, potion shops,
item shops, mask shops,
curiosity shops, game
parlours, shooting
ranges and more. They
are all related by the
fact they'll swap items
and services for shiny,
coloured jewels. |

SIGNS
|
 |
Signs are handily dotted
all across Hyrule.
They're pretty
self-explanatory
devices; they'll tell
you where things are, or
how something works, and
once you're done with
them, you can cut them
up to bug the next Hero
to climb Death Mountain.

TRIFORCE
|
 |
Perhaps the most
important and legendary
item in all Hyrule's
history, the fate of the
Triforce is the fate of
the Kingdom. Locked away
in the Sacred Realm,
each part, Courage,
Wisdom, Power, is locked
into the Hero, the
Princess, and Evil King
respectively.
It is said that whoever
touches the Triforce has
a wish granted; King
Daphnes Nohansen wished
for Hyrule to be locked
away forever, Ganon
wished for Hyrule
(though he received a
warped replica in the
Sacred Realm), and Link
and Zelda have both
wished for Hyrule to
enter a golden period.

WITCHES/POTIONS
|
 |
In the early days of
Hyrule, Potion Mixers
used Chu Jelly from Chu
Chus to create their
potions, but as magic
was slowly rediscovered,
Witches started to use
other ingredients. Most
Witches and Potion
Mixers are hideously
under-prepared; asking
you to pay a hefty fee,
despite asking you to
also find their
ingredients! |
