578 zelda breath of the wild - acorn hanging from orsedd bridge

Dear Readers,

I followed the river north from the last post and got to Orsedd Bridge. I found a Korok in the acorn hanging from the bridge. All I had to do was shoot it. I was attacked by a big Yiga along the way but I decided to ignore him. I could also hear a Hinox sleeping nearby and I didn't want to wake that creature.

577 zelda breath of the wild - the korok of applean forest

Dear Readers,

I went northwest from Rebonae Bridge to this forest, which had many apple trees. I knew there was a Korok here so I carefully searched around the place. By sheer luck I found a group of three trees that looked the same but one of them had a different pattern of apples growing in its branches. I picked some to make it match the other trees and out popped a Korok to give me another seed. I was glad to get it right because it was nicely placed among the other apple trees!

Dear Readers,

I headed to Rebonae Bridge to collect the Korok seed. It was under bridge, on the bank under the stone. I did a bunch of other stuff too like beat up a Bokoblin and a Yiga and get a nice reward from a nice lady.

575 zelda breath of the wild - golfing near benny's mound and rebonae bridge

Dear Readers,

From the mound in the last post I headed further east to an even bigger mound. There was no Korok seed here, but I climbed anyway to find a friendly camper named Benny. Benny shared her food with me and she had a cooking pot as well. She was nice. I may have been here before but I don't remember.

The Korok seed I was looking for was south of here around the shorter of two pillars. There were three boulders in grooves surrounding it and one empty groove. The missing boulder was on top of the pillar. I knocked it off with Stasis but hit it too hard and it went too far. Then I had to knock it back, though my shots were still a bit too powerful.

Suddenly I was interrupted by a big Yiga. I spent a while dealing with him, throwing weak weapons at his face. I eventually beat him up and took his bananas.

Then it was back to my boulder golfing. I finally found a use for my spring-loaded hammer and used it as a putter, helping me to make tiny shots so I could finally get the boulder into the groove, earning me another Korok seed.

After all that was done I headed back to Benny on the mound and spent the night there, eating cooked bananas and waiting for Daruk's Protection to recharge. It rained at one point and the only shelter was this huge slanted rock. We crouched under it while waiting for the rain to pass.

574 zelda breath of the wild - mound south of mabe prairie

Dear Readers,

From the Korok seed in last post I headed directly east, past the crossroads and through some trees. I was looking for a mound. When I looked around I saw a Guardian scuttling around south of here. I decided not to bother with it and stayed out of range. I got to the mound and climbed it to find a stone with a Korok seed underneath.

573 zelda breath of the wild - mound northwest of ranch ruins

Dear Readers,

Northwest of the troublesome Ranch Ruins was a big stony mound. On top of this mound there was nothing to bother me at all except for a couple of Stalkoblins during the night, which was nice after what I had to deal with at the Ranch Ruins in the last post. I found the Korok here under a lone stone and waited the night out with it in peace while waiting for Daruk's Protection to recharge.

572 zelda breath of the wild - the dangerous ranch ruins

Dear Readers,

I had to go to the Ranch Ruins for my next Korok seed. There was a guardian and a couple of silver Bokoblins on horseback. I was able for the guardian but the Bokoblins were very annoying. I just had to get them out of the way first. I got rid of one of them and then made the other fall off its horse. They were both archers thankfully. I left the second one alive and it stayed at a safe distance. I wish I could've been stealthy but a Yiga had to interrupt me as well. Bleh.

The puzzle was walking over groups of sprouts in ascending order, going from 1 to 5. I then got my hard earned Korok seed.
