Preparation for Snowpeak: Heading to the Tundra
If you’re unsure of your next actions, visit Telma’s Bar in Castle Town and speak to her. She explains that Renado is a talented man, and Ilia’s memory will return. She mentions that Ashei is checking out Hyrule’s northern mountain. You can now visit the heroes in the back room. Shad isn’t much help, but Auru tells you that the Sages served by royal appointment, and tutored Princess Zelda.

You can mark Ashei’s location on your map by looking at the parchment map on the table. |
After you discover where you must go, you can warp to Zora’s Domain, and tumble into the waterfall pool. Look for the western wall’s cave entrance, and head through, into the icy wilds of Peak Province.
Once at the ice flow, you’re startled by a frightening visage! Actually, it’s just Ashei, wearing her Yeti mask. Apparently, the beast who lives somewhere on the mountain has been seen frequently in Zora’s Domain. She gives you a sketch. The beast is holding a red fish.
Ashei’s Sketch
You got Ashei’s Sketch! This hastily drawn picture shows the creature Ashei saw holding a red fish.

Ashei warns you not to progress farther without a plan! Don’t head into Snowpeak yet, or you won’t be able to reach the mountaintop. |
In Zora’s Domain, talk to the first Zora you see, and show him Ashei’s Sketch. He instantly recognizes the beast, and the fish is a Reekfish. It’s called that because of the smell! Nobody besides Prince Ralis was able to catch this type of fish, the Zora tells you.
Warp to Kakariko Village, and journey across the graveyard to the Zora pool of remembrance. Prince Ralis is still standing by his father’s tombstone. Show him Ashei’s Sketch and he tells you the Reekfish only feeds on coral, and that’s the only way to catch it. The prince has an earring made from the stuff, and he gladly gives it to you. He is now ready to return to his village, too. His final advice is where to fish: near the Mother-and-Child Rocks in the waterfall basin.
Coral Earring
You got the Coral Earring! It’s made of precious coral from Zora’s Domain. It’s in the shape of a fishhook.
Warp to Zora’s Domain, and take another plunge into the waterfall pool. Follow the prince’s advice, and select the Fishing Rod. The coral lure is on it, but you must find the correct place to fish. It is directly across from the entrance to Snowpeak, near the large and small Mother-and-Child Rocks. Cast your rod, and in moments, reel in the Reekfish. Phew! That smells!
Change to your wolf form, and learn this new scent. Dive into the water, and swim to Snowpeak’s entrance, and head through.
