#39 Thunderhead – Isle of Songs Revisited
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
At the Isle of Songs, go through the crawl space and down the walkway to its end. Standing in the circle, look forward to see a Goddess Symbol. Use the skyward strike to activate the symbol.
-Cut Scene-
The medallion Link is standing on rises with the Goddess Statue below him. Fi appears and tells Link that she has a message from the Goddess that was given to Fi long ago. Fi tells Link it was intended for him and it reads:
"He who seeks the Sacred Flames, listen
well, for I guide you from my place at
the edge of time.
The last of the Sacred Flames still
Eludes you. To obtain it, you must claim
another Sacred Gift.
For each trial you overcome, you shall
Be blessed with another gift…
Make use of the Power of these Gifts,
and you will certainly find the
path to the Sacred Flames.
Now I bestow unto you another
melody. Let it serve as a key to
unlocking your final trial. It awaits you
upon Eldin Volcano."
Fi goes into a flying dance while a stream of light radiates to Link. Link begins to play the Goddess harp while visions of Loftwings fly above him. Fi tells Link the song is called "Din’s Power", and its rousing melody will guide him. The Goddess Statue drops down and Fi confirms what was told by the Goddess. Fi has given Link the dowsing ability to find the gate to the trial.
-End Cut Scene-
Take to the sky, leaving Thunderhead the same way Link came in, and go to the Eldin Volcano. But before you do, let’s get some treasure and do some errands.
-Side Quests & Treasure Hunting-
Go to Island #10, The Split Island. Land on the level half, equip the Clawshots and target a patch on the ceiling of the caged half of the island. Drop and open the treasure chest to receive the "Potion Medal". It prolongs the effect of a potion. Back on the other half of the island, in the cave below, open the other treasure chest to receive the "Life Medal". When carried, the number of hearts Link has is increased by one.
Go to Island #7, The Island with a hole in its top. Drop down the hole and see Blue Butterflies. Strum the harp to reveal a Gossip Stone that says:
They say it’s possible to summon
fairies by drawing three triangles
upon certain walls.
Equip the Clawshots. Target the Claw Shield to reach the treasure chest. Open it to receive a "Piece of Heart".
Go to Island #2, The Island with the well. Dive down and do a spin/jump to reach a ledge. Open the treasure chest to receive the "Heart Medal". Hearts will appear more often.
Go to the Lumpy Pumpkin and talk to Pumm, the innkeeper. He sees Link’s harp and says he has the perfect job for him. But it can only be done at night. Go in the room in the back and go to sleep until night. Talk to Pumm again and he tells Link that Kina is quite a singer. He asks Link to do a duet with her. Pumm calls to Kina to tell her. She agrees and the duet begins. Play as best you can. (I tried eight times without success and my friend did it the first time out) When the crowd of two is happy with the performance they will applaud. Kina will say, "You’re much better than I expected! I think I underestimated you. I hope we have a chance to entertain the customers again. Pumm will say, "Impressive! I’d say you pass with this, I say we’re even! You don’t have to work for me anymore. Great job. You know I’m going to buy a new chandelier to replace that old one! It really fancied up the place. Considering all the hard work you put in around here, I feel I should give you a little something. Take this!" Link receives a "Piece of Heart". Pumm then says, "Maybe you can swing by later. Yep, as a customer next time."
Go to Skyloft and to the Bazaar. Talk to the big guy, Dovos, in the café. He tells Link there are sounds of a woman sobbing at night in the dormitory. Near the Plaza talk to Fledge. He will tell Link that he is working out at night so that he can be as strong as Link. He asks Link not to come by at night, because it would be embarrassing. Go to Fledge’s room at night and Link will find him doing push-ups, counting 5,6,7…. Fledge tells Link he is training. He can’t lift a single barrel. He tells Link he is about to give up. Fledge says to Link "If only there were a potion that would give me stamina..." During the day, go to the Potion Shop and buy a bottle of stamina potion. Go back to Fledge’s room at night. Fledge will ask if Link has the stamina potion. Give Fledge the potion and he drinks it down. Fledge is perked up and feeling stronger. He is worried that he still won’t succeed. Tell Fledge he can. Fledge thanks Link and tells him to come by soon. Sleep to the next morning and again till the next night. Fledge is doing push-ups and counting 55, 56, 57…. Fledge tells Link he has been training hard but still feels sluggish. He asks for more stamina potion. During the day go to the Potion Shop for another bottle of stamina potion. Return to Fledge’s room at night. He will ask if Link will share his potion. Say, "take some". Fledge drinks it down and feels stronger. He does worry about how long he needs to train. Fledge asks Link "how many push-ups do you think I need to do?"…. Say "not about numbers". Fledge understands what Link means and tells him to come back soon.
Go to the water next to Kukiel’s house and dive in. Swim into the underwater cave and come up in the well. Open the large treasure chest to find a Silver (100) Rupee.
Climb to the area above the Academy and walk up to the vent above the bath. Inside the vent is a Claw Shield. Equip the Clawshots and use the Claw Shield to drop down inside the vent. Look down through the grill to see that it is the Headmaster who is taking so long in the bath. Go through a small crawl space and drop down into Zelda’s room. Open the armoire to find a Piece of Heart. Lay down on the bed and sleep till night. Link will find a Gratitude Crystal in the center of the room. If Link looks closely at the wood slats next to Zelda’s bed he will see that one is missing and he can see Karane in her room next door. Go to the desk that has a chair and sit down. Links attention will be drawn to a journal lying on the desk. It has an unfinished entry that reads, "Tomorrow is the big day! The wing ceremony! Finally, Link can take a big step toward becoming a knight. I can’t wait to see him promoted to full knighthood, but I’m a little worried he might have some trouble winning the race. Lately, Link hasn’t taken his flight training seriously. Someone needs to make sure he doesn’t mess up his chance! So I’ve made up my mind. Tomorrow I’ll wake him up extra early and make sure he gets in some last-minute practice, whether he likes it or not. He has to win, or we won’t be able to perform the closing ceremony together." Leave via the door to the hall. Link will also notice that the door is no longer locked and he can return at any time.
