Hyrule Castle
Move towards the Hyrule castle, and start by moving forward and then listen to the owl. There should be a big tree in front of you. Run up to this tree and hit the A button to roll right into it. You'll hear the secret noise and a Gold Skulltula will drop out of the tree. Defeat the enemy and pick up the Gold Skulltulla – this should be your 5th. Speak to the girl next to the vine and she will be giving you an egg. Just hold on to this egg for now, you’ll see what it’s for pretty soon... What we want to do is to go into Hyrule castle unnoticed. Begin climbing the vine beside Malon and just wait at the top of the vines the whole night. When morning arrives the egg will have hatched into a chicken. Upon reaching the bridge leading toward the castle, find the ladder that you can use to climb down to the very bottom and then head through the door. Go up the path until you see two guards. You will have to prevent being seen so run up the slope in front of the guards. There is also a guard at the top, be sure to stay behind him. From here you can safely head toward the stairs leading up to the Hyrule castle. You won’t be using the stairs since they are heavily guarded. You will see a rock wall left of the entrance of the Hyrule castle which you can climb. At the top make your way past the Gossip Stone and jump down towards the moat. If you jump into the water near the top you will just keep getting Rupees as you swim along down the moat. At one corner there is a spot where the ground slopes upward that you can use to get out. At the end of the path you will find Malon's father there, sleeping. The only way wake him is to equip the chicken (Press the C button).Next you will be using 2 boxed to go up close to the waterfall. Push the 2 boxes over the ledge, so that one box will be on top of the other. Climb up these boxed and go towards the waterfall. Press A and go into the crawlspace. You will have to sneak past all guards in this area of the Hyrule castle undetected. With the first guard circling, just follow him when his back is turned toward you and you should easily end up on the second area. Here just follow the slower guard across and up in between the fountains, and then go left and around to reach the third area. Go up the little steps and then grab onto the ledge above. Walk carefully toward the middle and then cross over on the beam that goes to the other side. The fourth area is a statue with two guards patrolling around it. Just move behind them as you normally would. The fifth and last area is the hardest. You have to make your way up past two fast moving guards that are circling the centre hedge. Wait until they have both gone past on your left and then run up the left side. Head for the top when the guards are gone then go down the path toward the Hyrule castle’s inner garden. Use the Fairy Slingshot and shoot the window, when you fire at it a Red Rupee will pop out worth twenty. You should also note the pictures behind the window. You also might want to fire at the window on the left for additional bonuses. approach Princess Zelda and speak with her. After a long speech she gives you a letter, ZELDA'S LETTER. Leave Zelda and speak with Impa, the person at the exit,. She will teach you your first song for the Fairy Ocarina.
