744 zelda breath of the wild - great fairy mija's korok seed

Dear Readers,

There was a Korok seed right next to Great Fairy Mija's place and I never noticed it before!

It was one of those rare flower counting ones. To the right of the fountain as you face it, there was a trail of bunches of flowers, starting from 1 up to bunches of 5. The last one was up in a tree. I followed the trail to the end to win a Korok seed.

743 zelda breath of the wild - three tree puzzle near great fairy fountain in akkala

Dear Readers,

On my way to buy arrows in Tarrey Town, I headed north towards the Great Fairy Fountain. I noticed a three tree puzzle on the ledge between the road and the fountain. I wonder why I didn't notice it before?

I made one tree match the others with regards to apples and won a Korok seed.

742 zelda breath of the wild - difficult pinwheel target in south ukuku plains

Dear Readers,

I went back to the Akkala mainland and hiked my way to the Ukuku Plains. In the south part of this area with all the trees was a cave with a pinwheel above its entrance. I climbed up there and had three fairly difficult balloons to shoot.

I didn't see the third balloon for ages until I noticed it on low ground circling around some trees very far away. I shot many many arrows at it until I was nearly out, so I gave up and decided to come back later when I had more. 

I went to Tarrey Town to buy more arrows and gathered other Korok seeds on the way. I'll detail them in the following posts.

When I got back from buying arrows I decided to chop down the trees where the difficult balloon was circling, hoping to make it easier for myself. Then I climbed back up to the pinwheel and tried again, making it a priority to pop that balloon before doing the other two.

After a few tries I managed to pop it. I reckon chopping the trees was a good thing to do! Then I popped the other two again and won the Korok seed. Hurray!

741 zelda breath of the wild - tiny island southeast of davdi island

Dear Readers,

Davdi Island had access to yet another small island to the southeast. It didn't have a name though. The only thing there was a pillar with some cracked rocks on top.

I glided over there, blew up the rocks and lifted the stone underneath for another Korok seed.

740 zelda breath of the wild - unpeaceful diving on davdi island

Dear Readers,

From the last post I took the bridge south from Ankel Island to Knuckel Island, which had no seeds to find, but it had a bridge going further south to Davdi Island, which did have access to more seeds.

While I was here I had trouble with a flock of Keese and some more Octoroks. My hands were full with them for a while. I used ice rod attacks on the Octoroks and a carefully planted bomb on the Keese. I got all the Octoroks and I got some of the Keese. The rest flew away.

I also got zapped by one of the flying Guardian thingies on the way across the bridge. I didn't bother turning around. I just wanted to move on.

Anyway, after all that I saw a ring of flowers next to where the Octoroks were. I used Revali's Gale to gain height since it was too rainy to climb and then I let myself drop into the ring from high above for another Korok seed.

739 zelda breath of the wild - not-so-easy-to-find korok on ankel island

Dear Readers,

After the easy-to-find Korok from last time, the second one was not sticking out as much.

I searched around and climbed the trees but none of them had any Koroks in them. Then I looked over the edge near the pillar and spotted wooden scaffolding below. I parachuted down to it and found a Korok stone at the end of the walkway for another seed.

738 zelda breath of the wild - easy-to-find korok on ankel island

Dear Readers,

I crossed the precarious footbridge south to Ankel Island. I had to deal with a Lizalfos and a Stalmoblin while I was here, but they weren't too much trouble to knock away.

In the southeast part of the island a prominent pillar with a single stone on it stuck out. I glided to it, lifted the stone and a Korok appeared with another seed for me.
