Forest Haven (F6) - B

The Deku Tree thanks you for rescuing Makar by handing you Farore’s Pearl. With Makar out of Kalle Demos’s flowery mandibles, the Koroks can continue with the ceremony.

As Makar plays his leafy cello, seeds fall from the Deku Tree’s branches. The Koroks collect the seeds and fly off to plant them across the islands of the Great Sea in order to spread the Deku Tree’s great forest to places outside of the Haven.

Head back to Red whenever you’re ready.

Bring Out Your Inner Otaku

If you got the Deluxe Picto Box by completing the “Lenzo’s Apprentice Shutter Bug” side quest while we were on Windfall Island, you can open a hatch just outside Forest Haven that leads into the Nintendo Gallery. The Nintendo Gallery is a place where people can bring photos of every person or creature living across the islands of the Great Sea to have them turned into sculptures; it’s an absolute “must stop and visit” location for collectors.

To reach the Nintendo Gallery, make sure you have a Hyoi Pear in your Bait Bag (There is a Beedle’s Shop Ship sailing around the base of the Forest Haven that sells Hyoi Pears if you need ‘em), then take the Baba Buds to the second highest ledge on the inside of the Forest Haven. To accomplish that, take the Buds up to the leaf canopy where you originally grabbed the Deku Leaf, turn left then hop and glide to the Baba Bud ahead. From there, launch onto the ledge ahead with the Baba Bud at its edge and you’ll be at the second highest platform of the Forest Haven.

Exit through the passage leading out of Forest Haven and head to the tip of the ledge ahead (cut the grass if you have less than a full Magic Bar). Set the wind to the northwest, then jump off the cliff, and glide to the island below.

Now turn around and face Forest Haven; a crystal is in a small alcove to the left of the cliff you just jumped from. Use a Hyoi Pear to control and navigate a seagull into that crystal.

Once you hit it, the hatch on the island will open, giving you access to the Nintendo Gallery. A ladder will also drop on the side of the island, which will allow you to get back up here with less effort. From here on, all you need to do is take pictures of each person, enemy, and creature you meet, then bring them back to the Gallery to have statues of them made—you can start with the owner of the Gallery, Carlov and his new biggest fan, Manny.

You can refer to the “Nintendo Gallery” section in the “Extras” chapter for details on where to find every creature and person in the game.
