1. Find the sage
Head west to Kakariko and ask about Sahasrahla. His hideout is near the eastern ruins.
2. A first bottle
Keep 100 rupees for the village merchant. The bottle purchased allows you to transport a potion, a fairy or a bee.
3. The tavern chest
Go around the tavern to the north to use its back entrance. Open the chest in this small room for a second bottle.
4. The Bug-Catching Net
Talk to the sick child in his house. With the net, capture a fairy and choose an empty bottle; she will help you after a defeat.
5. The first Pieces of Heart
Use bombs to explore the village well and the basement of the thieves’ hideout. Mark the Pieces of Heart you collect with the map’s Hearts filter.
6. Head east
Go to the small house southwest of Eastern Palace. Speak to Sahasrahla, then head to the palace entrance.
