615 zelda breath of the wild - acorn in small room near the dining hall

Dear Readers,

I climbed back down to the entrance to the dining hall. I went in and straight through the door ahead into a hallway. I used my guide to navigate my way to a room with a statue in it. It also had a Korok hiding in an acorn that was hanging from the ceiling. The guide I was using said I had to bomb a wall but it was already bombed? Maybe I already did that on previous excursions to the castle.

614 zelda breath of the wild - climbing the second gatehouse

Dear Readers,

From the last post I used Revali's Gale to get back up to where I was and climb up to the top of the second gatehouse. On the spire here was another Korok waiting to be found. I got revenge on a Guardian that zapped me earlier too.

613 zelda breath of the wild - below the waterfall near the dining hall

Dear Readers,

From the last post I headed northeast towards the entrance to the dining hall. From the waterfall nearby I had to drop down to a ledge that had a clump of bombable rocks on it. Under them was a stone with a Korok under that. It was a very murky area and I would never have come down here otherwise. I relied totally on the guide I was using. I got zapped several times by Guardians and I had to recharge both Revali's Gale and Daruk's Protection.

612 zelda breath of the wild - coat of arms after the front gate of hyrule castle

Dear Readers,

I had to stay in the area with the two pinwheels from the previous two posts in order to find the next seed. I had to look it up again and it turns out that I had to shoot the coat of arms that's part of the balcony. It was very annoying because it just looks so unremarkable and I'd easily miss it. Anyway, I shot it for another Korok seed.

It's also getting harder to come up with title names for these posts. There are a lot of seeds in Hyrule Castle

611 zelda breath of the wild - second hyrule castle pinwheel after front gate

Dear Readers,

I climbed back down from the last pinwheel to find another on a balcony. I had trouble looking for the balloon so I had to look it up. It turns out the balloon is in the distance to the south, hovering above another part of the castle structure. I shot a few arrows into the air above the balloon so I could reach it eventually, earning me another Korok seed.

610 zelda breath of the wild - first hyrule castle pinwheel after front gate

Dear Readers,

I headed through the front gate of Hyrule Castle and ran up the road until I got to the point where it turns to the left. Then I climbed up until I reached the top of of this part of the castle. There was a pinwheel up here and I had to shoot a couple of balloons that went back and forth behind some goop. I also had to smash a decayed Guardian on the way up here. I finished the pinwheel archery challenge for a Korok seed.

609 zelda breath of the wild - hyrule castle front gate stone

Dear Readers,

The last Korok seed at the front gate of Hyrule Castle was on top of the gate itself, under a stone. I was delighted to finally get it. After all the Guardians I had to deal with, including two that spotted me while I was climbing on the gate itself, I made sure to bop the Korok on the head with its own stone.
