Please rate this guide! Make your opinions 'heard'!!!

Also, if you think I wrote the guide the WRONG WAY, then try using the
OTHER guide! There are TWO guides, y'know! One for OoT and MQ! I've 
received e-mails with complaints about the poorly written guide...
When it's actually the wrong one!
The TOP guide is for MQ and the BOTTOM guide is for OoT! There!

======================================================================

*sighs* I've said this MANY times and I'll say it again: Master Quest
is just HARDER, just harder. That's that simple. The game is the same,
but the dungeons has been changed to make it harder, hence the title,
'MASTER QUEST'! The game Master Quest has been made for the people who
mastered the original OoT and call themselves 'masters'. The game tests
the brainpower of those so-called 'masters'. If they beat the game then
they are indeed a 'Master' of OoT. You want to be a 'Master'? Then beat
the game. 

The ONLY difference is IN the dungeons. I can 100% confirm this because,
obviously, I beat the game. The Gold Skulltulas' locations are different
since some of them are in the dungeons. The dungeons change so the Skulltulas
will. The Gold Skulltula's locations OUTSIDE the dungeons are all the same.
Everything INSIDE the dungeons are different except the Bosses.

The rooms' layout in the dungeons are exactly the same but Nintendo somehow
made the puzzles different! They did it SO professionally that I thought
they had the puzzles were a second option for the dungeons in the original
OoT! Nintendo rules.

The heart pieces are the same in MQ. Therefore, it was easy to compose a list
of the Heart Pieces. Enjoy the list!

I put up all of the side-quests I could do during the three-day span. I'll do
more side-quests in the later updates.

*sighs* I'm ready for the waterfall of the e-mails! *cries*

======================================================================
                                STORY

Once upon a time, there were three goddesses that created the earth. They were
Din, Nayru, and Farore. They all created the earth and the spirit of
the law so the creatures could live respectably to the law. As they 
left the dimension to another, they left behind a mark... That mark is
the Triforce. 

The Triforce contained three virtues: Power, Courage, and Wisdom. The
Triforce protected the land for years to come. However, the Triforce
could be possessed by an individual. If that individual has a good heart,
the land will see an era of prosperity. If the heart is evil, the world
would suffer a long drought of peace. 

A myth said that when an individual finally capture the Triforce, it will
split into three pieces. The person who touched the Triforce will get the
virtue he believed in most. The other two pieces will go to its best 
host. If an individual collects them all, he or she will reign supreme.

The five races that Farore created, the Gorons, the Zoras, the Gerudos,
the Kokiri, and the Hylians, all respected the Triforce with all of their
hearts. However, as a popular saying goes, whenever there is good, there 
will always be evil. Therefore, Triforce will never be safe from the 
evil.  

One day, a Gerudo man with an evil heart trekked the vast deserts of 
Hyrule. He had heard about how powerful the Triforce could be and he 
really wanted it to rule the land. He knew nothing on how to get it...
until recently. He found out about a mythical Ocarina of Time. He walked
down the horizon of the storming sand. He looked up. He knew that item 
must have some connection to the Triforce. Oh, how badly he wanted it!

Ganondorf went to the Hyrule Field and devised his evil plans to capture
the Triforce. First, he went to the Kokiri Forest and snuck in a spider
in the Great Deku Tree, the protector of the Forest. Then he went to the
volcano of the Gorons and awakened the Dodongo. Finally, he went to the
Zora's Domain and made Jabu-Jabu jabby.

Back at the Kokiri Forest... The Great Deku Tree suddenly realized that the
time was now. The boy without a fairy time must leave...

                              WALKTHROUGH
                          (Master Quest only)




***NOTE*** This Walkthrough is for the Master Quest version of Zelda on
Gamecube, not Ocarina of Time. Just making sure you know that.  Also,
the Walkthrough will not cover the Side-Quests... The Side-Quests will 
be in a separate section. The Walkthrough covers the storyline or the 
requirements you have to do.

I have actually received a e-mail that my Master Quest walkthrough was 
wrong. I'm debating whether if those people has the brains to know that
there's TWO walkthroughs here.

If you want the Ocarina of Time, press Ctrl + F and copy n paste this:

O C A R I N A   O F   T I M E

Then you will be brought all of the way to OoT. (2 or 3 tries)***END NOTE***

                            (Master Quest)
 
Call me Link. Gah, bad Moby Dick joke. Anyway, you wake up as Link 
after a long sequence involving a fairy and a tree. First of all, I 
want you to get used to the controls here on the Gamecube version 
because Gamecube's controls are a bit clunky compared to n64's (if you
ever played the n64 version, you'll understand).


First of all, I want you to get familiar with the jumping. The jumping
in this game is automated when you reach a edge. Try it on some wood 
blocks across your house. If you made it to the other end, you get 5 
rupees. Don't buy anything yet! Go to Mido, the little boy guarding the
path to the Great Deku tree. Speak to him, and he will tell you that he
won't let you pass him unless you have a sword and shield! Now time 
for some hunting!


Go to the left of your house and go up a hill. You should see some 
fences with some grass around. Go through the fences to the other side,
where a hole resides. Go up to the hole and press A to crawl through. 
Go left and wait until you see a giant boulder rolling after you! Now 
don't move and the boulder will go to the right of you. Follow that 
boulder and take the first right path you see. Ah-ha! Your first 
treasure chest! Go up to it and press A to see how lovable Link looks
like trying to get that item outta the big chest! ^_^ Guess what's the 
item? Your first SWORD! The sword is KOKIRI SWORD. Go to the item menu
(start button) and go to the equipment menu. Move your cursor to the 
sword. Press A to equip. Now, back to the overworld. Practice with your
sword with some grass and signs. Familiarize yourself with the 
L-targeting.


Your next objective: to get the shield! This time, there's no hunting!
:-( All you have to do is to find 40 rupees and buy the shield in a 
store. You should have some already. If you don't have 40 yet, go to 
the house down the hill and enter it. There are some chests with rupees 
inside. Go back out and go right and you should see a little cliff. Get 
up on it. Go right and take the blue rupee between the larger cliff and 
the house. Take the rupees from the chests! Also, walk around in the 
patches of tall grass, you might find some rupees. If you STILL don't 
have 40 rupees, try picking up some rocks and throw them. There might 
be some rupees there. 


When you've had enough, go to the store (the house near Mido) and buy
your first shield! It's DEKU SHIELD! Equip it, I trust you know how to.
Go back out and talk to Mido. He will let you through to the Great Deku
tree, after all that bickering!


On the way to the Deku tree, you will encounter your first Deku Babas.
Use the L-targeting to lock on them and use the B button to use the 
sword. When you've defeated one of them, pick up the wood stick it left
behind! Now you have your first DEKU STICK! Equip it to one of your C
buttons. Proceed to the Deku Tree when you've defeated all of the Deku 
Babas.


The Deku Tree will speak to you and you will be given an option, select
'Yes'. Then enter the opening the Deku tree created for you. Here begins
your epic adventure as Link!



----------------------------------------------------------------------
                I N S I D E   T H E   D E K U   T R E E
----------------------------------------------------------------------
                          INSIDE THE DEKU TREE
                            (Master Quest)
 
Go left and up the ladder. Go down the path, and jump across the gap to
another path. Watch out for the bat, use the L-targeting to track him 
down and kill him. Jump again to the other platform. Go up the path and
kill the monster (I call him the Spider, alright?). Open up the chest 
and you will get the DUNGEON MAP! Now you can see all of the rooms that
you wasn't in before! Very useful, indeed.


Go up the vines and walk around the walkway until you see a switch. Go 
on the switch and the fire will ignite on the torch, causing the web to
burn out. Go through that door that is now accessible. In the room, 
there is a switch with a fire next to it. Don't worry about it right 
now. Go down to the bottom platform and kill all of the monsters that 
resides there. You should get your first DEKU NUT! Now, get back up to 
the original platform, use the vines to get back up. Get your Deku 
Stick out and start a fire by putting the Stick next to the fire. Then 
go back to the bottom platform and make the cold torch touch the flamed
Deku Stick. Now a treasure chest will come out. It's on the other side 
of the room. Press the switch and jump to the other side. Open the 
chest. It's a BLUE RUPEE. Now, make sure you've killed every monster in
the room because if you didn't... you're still locked in the room. Kill
every monster then the door will unlock and a big treasure chest will 
come out. Get to it and open it. Its.... the FAIRY SLINGSHOT! Equip it!
Also, practice with it so you can aim without using the L-targeting.


Go back to the second floor and roll to the crate near the vines. You 
will uncover a GOLD SKULLULTA. Destroy it and take the token. Now, get 
one of Deku Sticks on fire and burn that spider web to the right. Enter
the door.


You will see a GIANT BABA lunging at you. Stay back at the edge of the 
room and fire Deku Seeds (use the Slingshot) at the Baba. It will need 
4 hits to dieeeee. Then destroy both spiders. now take out your 
Slingshot and aim at the open eye above the other door. If you did hit 
it, the door will unlock. 


Use your Slingshot to destroy the spiders and the Skulltulas. The get 
on the other side (use the vines) and open the chest. It's your first 
COMPASS! Whoo! Turn back and immediately jump onto the floating 
platform and again, _IMMEDIATELY_ jump to the original platform. If you
didn't make it (Skulltula hit you), then shoot a Seed at the ladder 
above the alcove. It will come down, allowing you to use it. Exit the 
room.   


Go back to the main floor. It's down to 1F, the place where you began 
this dungeon. You should have a lit torch near a web. Light up your 
Stick and roll on the web. The web will burn out. You'll FALLLLLL to 
the B1F. Now swim to the higher platform and get on it. Kill off the 
Babas and press the switch. Go to the lit torch and light up your Stick 
again. Burn the web and press the switch that was behind the web. A 
chest will come out on the other platform... :P Get to it and open it. 
it's a BLUE RUPEE or a DEKU SHIELD if you lost it earlier. Go back to 
the lower platform and use the Slingshot to close the eye above the 
door. Enter the door.


A Deku himself will be firing some Nuts at you. You have to L-target 
him or the Spiders and press R to use your shield. The Nut will bounce 
off your shield and toward your target. Chase down the Deku and kill 
him. Go back to the pervious room and light up your Deku Stick. Go back
in again and light up the two torches. The bars will go out. Enter the 
new door.


Take the chest and the RECOVERY HEART. 


This portion is a bit tricky, especially if you have never played a n64
Zelda before. You have to press the switch to bring out the fire and 
light up your Deku Stick. Then you have to get on the moving platform. 
While on the platform, get to the near side and roll (use A) when the 
spiked log comes close. So, press the switch when the moving platform 
is at the farthest away. Then do what I just said. When you've gotten 
past the log with your fire on the Stick still intact, jump to the next
platform and light up both torches. The door will unlock. Kill the 
skulltula by standing in the northwestern corner and fire some Seeds at
it. The get up on the cube and exit the room. 

JyHw1234@cs.com adds: "There is a MUCH easier way, and very simple. 
Just jump on the platform and hold R. Then while Link is crouched the 
log will just go right over him." He was referring to the log portion.
You can just hold R and go under the log! Thanks, man!


Kill absolutely ALL of the enemies here and there are many of those! A 
Deku, 4 Spiders on the floor, a few more Spiders on the roof and a Bat!
Use the Deku's Nuts to kill the ground Spiders (use the shield) then 
kill the Deku. Then all of the spiders will come crashing down. Kill 
them all, and don't forget the bat. When you've killed them all, exit 
through the new door.


Don't move any further when you enter the room. Stay where you are and 
fire Seeds at the bats on the torches. There are 4 in all, and when you
kill them all, stand on the switch. Use the torches to light up your 
Stick. Burn down web to the right of the door you just entered. (The 
other door has nothing valuable for now, wait until you have Song of 
Time) Crawl through the hole.


Don't worry about the Giant Baba. GO right and reflect a Nut back to 
the Deku. The Deku will surrender and ask you if you want to buy a Deku
Shield for 50 Rupees. Your decision. Then use the Seeds to kill the 
Baba. Go to the block and Navi will tell you that you can push the 
block! Do so by pressing down A when the Action Button says 'Grab'. 
Press up to push the block. Push it until it falls off to the water. 
Jump off to the next platform with the fire. Yes, the LOWEST platform! 
Light up your Deku Stick and immediately jump to the shallow part of 
the water and climb up to the middle platform. Now, jump from here 
to the block. Then climb up to the upper platform. Quickly go to the 
web and roll! If you was fast enough, the web will burnnnnnn! Drop down
the new hole.


Take the hearts if necessary. Then  go on the dry ground. You will be 
facing 3 Dekus! However, you have to defeat them in a certain order. I 
found this out by trial and error, but I've heard that you can get the 
info from somewhere else, but I don't know where. The order (from left
to right) is: 3, 1, 2. Then track down the 2nd Deku and he will tell
you the secret of Queen Gohma and unlock the door. Enter the door 
refresh your health and seeds first).

                         Q U E E N   G O H M A    


This boss is pretty easy, even for the first dungeon. If you listened 
to the Deku's advice, you already know how to beat her. First, go to 
the First-Person View and look for her eye. Then the battle begins.

All you have to do is avoid her until she climbs to the ceiling. When 
L-target her if you haven't yet and get your Slingshot ready with a 
Seed. Wait until her eye is red and shoot! She will come crashing down,
exposed for attacks. Immediately go to her eye and MASH, I repeat, MASH
your B button!!!!!! If you mashed your B button fast enough, you won't 
have to hit her eye again with a slingshot! It's that simple! If you 
didn't kill her on the first try.... Try again! She's not that hard.

Superkyle1991@cs.com sent this tip:

"To quickly kill Queen Gohma, throw a Deku Nut when she's on the ground.
Her eye will be red. Also use L-Targeting forward and B to kill her quick."

This makes the boss even MORE EASIER! What a boss! :P

Congrats! You have gotten your first Spiritual Stone, the KOKIRI 
EMERALD! The next objective: go to the Goron Mountain and get the 
second spiritual stone.


Leave the Kokiri Forest by going to the other end of the little town, 
out a tunnel. Then your long-time friend, Saria will call you and say 
good-bye and give her treasure, the FAIRY'S OCARINA. Then you will be 
at...

This field is probably the most memorable and the most well-known 
location in the entire kingdom of video games. Cherish the moments in 
this field, for they are always magnificent to remember. 


Proceed and you will be encountered by an owl, Kaepora Gaebora, and he
will tell you some tips for your journey. Also, he will tell you where 
to go next. Your next destination: Hyrule Castle. Go to the north. You 
will see a majestic castle. Enter it via the draw bridge. If the 
bridge's up, that means it's nighttime. Wait until its daytime 
shouldn't take long) then enter the castle.


Also, if you want to explore the field, you can go to Lon Lon Ranch and
check it out.

Before entering the ACTUAL Castle, I suggest you look around the 
Market. Check out the stores, the slingshot mini game (if you get all 
10 rupees, you get a bigger Seed package!), and talk to people! Have 
fun in the market! After you've done that, go north to the Castle.



After entering the Castle's area, you will be confronted by Kaepora 
again. He explains to you that time flows normally only in the fields 
and the time stops in the towns and the Lon Lon Ranch. 


Then go to the tree where Kaepora was on. Roll to the tree and crash. A
gold skulltula will come out. Kill it and take the token. Then go up 
the gate and talk to the guard. He will say you can't enter. What to 
do? Go back and look for some vines to climb up. Climb up and go to the
top of the gate. Jump off the gate and maneuver Link through the blind 
spots of the guards. By the way, if you get caught, go back to the 
vines to find Malon, the Lon Lon's owner's daughter. She will ask you 
to find his father in the castle. For your trouble, she will give you a
WEIRD EGG. Now, try again and avoid the guards. it's basically all 
trial and error. 


Here's some tips on avoiding the guards. Use the slope to avoid the 
first guard then sneak past the two guards up ahead. Then go left, 
across the field. Don't take the road to the Castle! Go left and look 
for a rough surface on the wall. Climb up and jump off to the moat.

Swim down the moat and climb up using the slope on the corner. Then go 
left and you're done!


You will see a guy in blue sleeping near the river. It's Talon, Malon's
father! Yay! Now wake him up! You can't? Oh... I know! Wait until your 
egg hatches into a chicken, and when it does, equip it to one of your C
button and use it when you're near Talon. Talon will wake up and say 
"What the tarnation?" ^_^ He will get mad and storm off. 


Now, you have to do a little puzzle. You see the blocks? Push the 
nearest block to the end and push the block off the platform onto the 
water. Then do the same thing with the other block. The puzzle should 
finish up looking like a block onto another one. Then get on the top 
block and jump to the waterfall. Crawl through the hole.


You come upon the Castle Courtyard. You have to maneuver among the 
bushes to avoid the guards. This one is more difficult because if you 
miss, you'll start over in the beginning (where you found Talon, the 
father). My tip: be PATIENT! Take your time, don't rush anything. The 
first part has only one guard so you should have no problem getting 
past him. Then there's two guards... Just be patient and time your 
movements. After that part, you will see a guard with some vines and a
walkway above him. Use the stairs to get on the walkway and walk over 
him. Easy said, easy done.


The next parts has several guards, but you know what to do. In the part
with a big bushes that makes the area look like a hedge maze, wait 
until BOTH guards goes down the left side of the area. Then follow the 
guards and stop when they stop. When both of them goes right, go out 
of the area and enter the sacred fountain to encounter the holder of 
the title: Zelda.


Before you talk to Zelda, I suggest you to use your Slingshot to shoot 
Seeds at the windows (one at each side). The left one has a picture of 
Mario and Daisy! Shooting it will give you a red rupee! Then do the 
same thing to the other window and a old lady will get mad and throw a 
bomb at you! Hilarious! Now go talk to Zelda.

She will speak to you about... nah, I don't want to spoil it to you. 
After the lengthy cut scene, take the ZELDA'S LETTER and go talk to 
Impa. She will teach your first Song, the ZELDA'S LULLABY. Impa will 
tell you to go to Kakariko, the town between Hyrule Field and the Death
Mountain. Go to Kakariko. Then go up the stairs to the left and talk to
the guard. Show him the Zelda's Letter. He will let you pass through, 
but he asks you a favor: buy a mask for his son. You don't have to, but
I suggest you do. Also, he gives you a tip: go to the Bazaar in the 
Market (Hyrule Castle) and buy a better shield. If you go there and 
tell the shop that the guard told you about this, you get a discount! 
It's up to you if you want to do this. Also, wait until nighttime to 
find a Golden Skulltula on the back of a house in the southwestern part
of the town. Roll into the tree in the middle part to find a Golden 
Skulltula.
