The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds Guide › Walkthrough › The Master Sword

Hyrule Field

To the Lost Woods!

Having braved the dangers of both the House of Gales and the Tower of Hera, Link has managed to gather all three Pendants of Virtue. The Master Sword is now within our hero’s grasp! The blade of evil’s bane will not be easy to claim, however, for it resides deep within the Lost Woods.

Ring your bell to summon Irene. The good witch doesn’t arrive, however—she only sends her broomstick! How odd. Well, no matter, there’s important work to be done. Allow Irene’s broomstick to drop you off at Kakariko Village, then save and head north, into the Lost Woods’ entry area.

Where’s the Witch?

Have the broomstick fly you to the Witch’s House, and speak with Irene’s grandmother, the Witch, to learn that Irene has apparently gone missing. How troubling! And if you stop by the Blacksmith’s, you’ll find that Gulley is still gone. Head north from there to find that Rosso has also vanished, and visit Zora’s Domain to learn that the Zora Queen, Oren, is also gone. What could have happened to all of Link’s friends?!

You’ve explored this shaded forest many times before, but with all three Pendants of Virtue in hand, you can now explore the very heart of Lost Woods. Make your way to the entry area’s northwest log, next to which stands a warning sign. OK, you’ve been warned!

Go through the log and then cut through some bushes to enter another log, which leads into the Lost Woods. Those who do not possess all three Pendants of Virtue will mysteriously emerge from the previous log, caught in an endless loop that makes it impossible for them to explore this sacred forest!
