Nintendo 1.13 manual Hyrule Castle

know. After you wake up, your uncle departs with the sword and tells you

not to leave the house. Yeah right. Take the lamp from the treasure chest and go out.

Guards are restricting your area to a little space in front of the castle. Go north from your home and cross the bridge to the castle. There's a guard blocking the main entrance, so follow the stone path to his right and go around the side of the castle until the path comes to a

dead end. Toss aside the bush (with the A button) and drop into the hole.

-- HYRULE CASTLE --

You're now in the basement of Hyrule Castle. There's your uncle! Talk to

him and he'll give you your basic sword and shield. Apparently, he dies at this point (I'm assuming that he died, since you can't talk to him anymore, but you'll strangely see him again at the ending). Go onward to the next room. Go collect a blue rupee from the chest at the right, and get some magic power from under the pots (you'll need this magic for

the lamp). Go south and out the door.

You're back outside! Cut away a few bushes and enter the castle through the main entrance, killing any guards you meet along the way.

Now this is royalty! The whole castle is swarming with guards, so always

be prepared. Enter the door at the right side. Continue following the red carpet until you reach some stairs leading down with some statues at

the sides. Go down there into the Hyrule Castle dungeons.

Murder the guard in the room and collect the key that pops out of him. Open the chest to get a map of the castle. You can press X at anytime to

see it. You your key to open the locked door and continue. This is a rather fun room. I like hitting the guards with the sword so that they fall into the bottomless pit. Bwa ha ha! Ahem -- continue through this straight-forward room and go through the door at the rop left.

Kill the lone guard in this room to open up the doors. Head to the room at the right. Open the chest and you'll recieve the boomerang, one of my

favorite items. It stuns enemies and returns to you without using up any

magic. Try it out on this guard! Defeat him to get a small key, then return to the previous room. Use the key to go north through the locked door. Then keep going until you reach the large room of B3.

Defeat the green solder. To defeat this semi-boss with the ball and chain, I suggest throwing pots at him. It's much quicker and safer that way. When he's defeated, get the big key and use it to open up Zelda's
