Part 2, Technically: Sword through Ship

Let's start this. :




We left off last time in Orca's house. He's the tall, thin old guy standing in the corner with the staff. He's Orca, swordsmaster extraordinaire. Go up and talk to him. He'll make you fight him for a sword (like usual).
Follow his instructions. Warning: When rushing up to him to use the B attack, be sure to let go of the gray control stick (GCS) before hitting B, 'cuz he'll yell at you for that and hit you. Pretty unfair if you ask me, but oh well.



Now that you have the sword, exit his house.
Go back to the path and cross the bridge again. If you haven't already done this, continue the path and go to the right once it separates. Run up it 'till you hit the treeline, then use your new-found sword skills to slash the trees apart.

Even though rupees should be found in grass, this one doesn't, so there's almost no point to cutting it. If you follow the path, to the left is the bridge across. The sign warns you about the broken wood in the middle of it. Run across into the dark doorway to the woods.


*Small cutscene*


Go to your right and hig the wall until you find the ramp. Leap into the clearing. There is a big tree trunk on the ground that has a red rupee in it. Run to the closest edge and crawl into it. When you're crawling in it the screen will show you a Creeper (Name later) that is standing guard to the cut trunk. Once you get the rupee, you could either use the stones to attack it (not advised- it takes forever), wait until he falls asleep then charge it, or just charge it.

Attack it any way you like. Once you're done, jump on the trunk to the platform. There is a huge rock, but that's for later. Walk up the trunk to the clearing. There, you'll get jumped by two of those things. Once you defeat them, Tetra will wake up and fall from the branch.
Tetra's loveable sidekick Gonzo wil show up, sounding worried for her. Eventually those two will run out of the forest, and your character will follow them.

*Sad cutscene*

Poor Aryll.

Anyway, a speaking cutscene shows up where the Rito helps you get passage on Tetra's ship.
She'll make you get a shield before you can board.

So, go inside Grandma's house and climb up the ladder. It's gone! So jump down and your character will turn to the room and a cutscene will play.

Once Grandma gives you the shield, sad music will play and she'll start crying.

Leave the house.

(END)

Before you talk to Tetra, though, read the next post I'll do. It's about making some money before you leave.
