Back outside, head east across the bridge to the next screen. There are a few things you should do before heading to the second dungeon.

Start by heading all the way south, defeating the enemies along the way to get some rupees. At the southmost point, head all the way east to the bottom-right corner of the overworld.

Defeat the Octoroks, Tektites (hopping spider-like enemies), and Leevers along the way to get a good amount of rupees. At the eastmost point, head north 1 screen and enter the cave, which is a shop.

Buy some Bombs for 20 rupees, then head west 2 screens. Then, head north 1 screen and east 1 screen to another shop. Buy a Blue Candle at this point (if you don't have 60 rupees, go fight some enemies and come back to get it).

After that, head west 1 screen and continue north for 2 more screens, defeating the Moblins along the way. In the area with the 2 Armos Knights in the middle, awaken and defeat the right one and go down the stairs to a hidden room. A Moblin will secretly give you 30 rupees there.

Leave there and continue north 2 screens and east 1 screen. Go north and enter the cave to get the Letter from the old man there.

Now, go back south 1 screen, west 1 screen, then south 1 more screen. From there, head west to the next screen and bomb the right side of the rock formation in the middle of the area to reveal a cave. Enter it and claim the Heart Container inside (don't take the Water of Life; you can buy some later if you want it so badly).

After that, head north up the steps to the next screen. Then, go west 2 screens and north 1 screen. Go around the pond, being careful of the tough red Lynel enemy around the path. Enter the cave and take the White Sword since you have 5 Heart Containers at this point.

Now, exit this cave and go back around and south to the previous screen. Then, head west as far as you can go while avoiding the falling boulders along the way.

Head south 1 screen and east 6 screens, defeating the Peahats, Octoroks, and Leevers you encounter along the way. Then, head south 2 screens and west 1 screen. Defeat the enemies there, then go north up the blue steps to the next area, where you'll find Dungeon 2, the Moon.

Dungeon 2 (Moon)


In this dungeon, head east into the next room and defeat the Ropes you see there. Take the Key that appears and go back to the previous room.

Now, head north to the next room, and defeat the Ropes there as well. Go through the door to the left that opens into the next room. Beat some more Ropes and take the Key, then head east 2 rooms. Defeat 3 more Ropes in this room, then unlock the east door and into the following room.

Defeat the Gels here and take the Compass in the upper-right corner of the room.

Go back to the previous room, then head north to the next room this time. Here, defeat the Goriyas and unlock the east door, then enter that room. Take the Map and go back to the previous room, then head north to the next room.

In this room, defeat the Ropes and take the Key that appears, then go east into that room. Here, defeat the 3 blue Goriyas while avoiding the fireballs shot by the statues in the corners, then claim the Metal Boomerang to replace your wooden one.
