714 zelda breath of the wild - secluded area at spool bight

Dear Readers,

From the last post I found myself with the need to climb even further up Ja'Abu Ridge until I got to the top. It wasn't easy as it was lashing rain for hours. I checked around for a good spot so I could use Revali's Gale for some of the climb.

I managed to find my way to the top of the ridge. I was trying to get to an area called Spool Bight on the map. There was a little green area where the sheer cliffs almost surrounded it next to Lanayru Sea on the east coast. I parachuted down into it to find a gang of Bokoblins and a Moblin with electric weapons!

I quickly put on my rubber gear and zapped them with one of my own electric weapons before kicking their butts one by one.

There were a few trees around here and a star fragment in the chest, but what I wanted was the Korok, which was under a pile of rocks on the cliff wall. It wasn't the easiest to see with the dreary weather but I got to blow them up for another Korok stone and seed.

I thought this area was completely secluded, but then I noticed a path that led all the way to the Akkala Region! Nice little discovery. I got here the hard way though!

713 zelda breath of the wild - climbing ja'abu ridge from lanayru bay

Dear Readers,

The metal puzzle from the last post provided some roof cover over my head while it was nighttime and pouring with rain. I set up a campfire and sat there until morning.

After that I changed into my climbing gear and went up the steep wall of Ja'Abu Ridge.

I kept climbing and climbing, stopping to rest occasionally, before climbing some more, going directly north.

Eventually I came to a platform with a pile of cracked rocks. I blew it up to reveal a Korok stone underneath. I lifted it for another seed.

712 zelda breath of the wild - metal puzzle northwest of horon lagoon

Dear Readers,

I headed southwest from the last post along the bottom of the mountain until I came across a metal puzzle. It took a bit of trial and error with Magnesis but I was able to complete the empty part of the puzzle which was sticking out of the wall.

This puzzle was located northwest of Horon Lagoon. I'm saying this extra detail to help pinpoint its location. I got another Korok seed from it.

711 zelda breath of the wild - korok stone north of lanayru peninsula

Dear Readers,

From the last post I hiked north all the way through Talus Plateau and all the way to where the peninsula met the mountain, where I found a big pile of rocks on its own, which was kind of unusual. They were on top of a very purpose-built looking platform.

I blew them up and this revealed a Korok stone underneath. I collected another seed from lifting it.

You know, it was kinda strange how this place was called Talus Plateau when it didn't have any Talus monsters on it. The only big monster I met was a Hinox. I snuck past it with my Sheikah gear.

710 zelda breath of the wild - lodrum headland tunnel balloon

Dear Readers,

After finding the Korok sprout last time, I headed north through the central part of Lodrum Headland until I found a tunnel.

Inside this tunnel was a single Korok balloon that was very easy to reach. I made a single swing at it with a boko bat and that's all I needed to do to collect the seed. It's nice to have easy ones!

709 zelda breath of the wild - korok sprout in lodrum headland

Dear Readers,

This time I headed east from the Lizalfos camp, keeping my Lizalfos mask on until it was safe to take it off. There was a Lynel in the area too but way further to the south, so it wasn't a threat.

East of the Lizalfos camp I found a Korok sprout and chased it around a bit until I got the seed.

708 zelda breath of the wild - stone slab at lodrum headland

Dear Readers,

I decided to explore the peninsula at Lanayru Bay, mostly around Lodrum Headland.

I started with the west part of it, where there was a Lizalfos camp. I put on my Lizalfos mask so I wouldn't upset them.

Down the slope from the camp I found a stone slab on top of a Korok stone. I used Stasis to knock it out of the way so I could get the Korok seed underneath.
