Walkthrough:The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Xykeb Zraliv/Part 4

Getting back to Lynna City
The scene will cut to Ambi and Nayru. Ambi will say that the tower is almost complete. The scene will cut back to Link. The Maku Tree will tell you that she senses an Essence of Time northwest of Lynna City. Go south, then northwest. You will find a red Dodongo and two Tokays. The Tokays apparently want to eat it, thinking it's a fish. If you talk to one of them, it will ask you for your Ember Seeds. If you say yes, they will be burned and run off.

Now if you talk to the Dodongo, he will say that he is Dimitri and that he can swim. You can ride on his back the way you ride Moosh and Ricky. Now go north and west to shore. Dimitri will leave. Go north and into the cave. Stand on the left northeast square and shoot a seed northwest. A bridge will appear. Take it to a staircase.

Jump and slash Tingle's balloon, then talk to him. You can now hold up to 50 of every type of seed. Go south, south, south, west, north, north, north, and north up to Lynna City.

Lynna City
First go to Bipin and Blossom's house. Blossom will say that their son is sick and that they need rupees. Choose how many rupees you want to lend them. I generally give them 150 rupees, but you can give less if you want.

Now leave Lynna City through the western exit. Go north, then west and into the building. Talk to the man in here, and he will say that he is hungry. If you give him the Tasty Meat, he will give you the Doggie Mask. Go back into Lynna City, then go east and into the building. Talk to the woman here and give her the Doggie Mask. She will give you the Dumbbell.

Alright, at this point you've encountered all three animal friends, Moosh, Ricky, and Dimitri. You will have to choose one that you will be able to use anytime for the rest of the game. Moosh is the default. However, if you buy the Strange Flute from the shop for 150 rupees, you will get to use Dimitri.

If you go into the past and enter the building where Vasu is in the present, you will be able to play a minigame. You use your sword as a "bat" (further evidence that your sword is just a stick) to hit a ball into certain targets. Reds (they're really purple; Nintendo is apparently just colorblind) are worth -10 points, blues are worth 30 points, and angels are worth 100 points. If you don't hit the ball at all, you will lose 50 points. If you get at least 250 points, you will be able to use Ricky. I generally opt for Ricky, but it's entirely your decision.

Whichever one you choose, leave Lynna City through the western exit and then go north. Shoot the switch with the Seed Shooter, then cross the bridge and go north. Go west, north, east, and east. Depending on which animal partner you chose, this area will be different. If you chose Moosh, jump across the pits and go east, then north and west. If you chose Dimitri or Ricky, just go north.

Talk to the man here, Mutoh, and he will talk about how his workers ran off. You can't do anything about it yet, so retrace your steps. Eventually one of the Hide 'N' Seek Fairies will come and tell you that an animal got lost in the woods. It will describe whichever animal you picked.

Go back to the Fairies' Woods. Go north, south, and north to find Moosh, Dimitri, or Ricky. Whichever one you chose, after you talk to him, the fairies will transport you out of the woods and Moosh, Dimitri, or Ricky will either give you his flute (if it is Moosh) or make your Strange Flute his flute (if it is Dimitri or Ricky), which allows you to call him to wherever you are. Now go back to Mutoh. If you talk to him now, he will ask you to find his workers for him. This area will change depending on which animal partner you chose.

Moosh Instructions
If you chose Moosh, the area will be full of holes to fly over. From Mutoh's location, go east. Fly to a staircase, then fly over some holes and go north. Talk to the worker here. Now go south, down the staircase, and northeast. Then fly over some holes to a staircase. Go north, east, down a staircase, and south. There's a worker here, and a whole bunch of holes. Ordinarily you'd need to fly over all of them, but you can shoot an Ember Seed to a southwest patch of grass. Then just fly south, chop the grass on your right, and talk to the worker. Now go north, west, south, south, and east. First go to the northernmost square you can reach, then fly east, then south to some grass. Go south. You can fly to a cave, inside of which is a chest containing a ring. Then leave the cave and go west, north, east, and north. Talk to the worker here.

Dimitri Instructions
If you chose Dimitri, the area will be very watery. This is the easiest of the three. Go south, then east, and go up the waterfall. Go north and talk to the worker. Go south, down the waterfall, then northeast. Now go east, up a waterfall, and north. Talk to the worker here. Now go south twice and talk to the worker here.

Ricky Instructions
If you chose Ricky, the area will be grassy with several cliffs. Go south, west, and up the cliff. Go north and talk to the worker. Then go south, down the cliff, north, west, and north. Go up the cliff, then go east and south. Talk to the worker. Go north, east, southeast, south, and south. Charge up your attack along to shoot a small whirlwind to cut the grass across the pits. Then jump across, go up the cliff, and go north. You can enter the cave for a ring. Then go up the cliff and talk to the worker.

Symmetry City
No matter which animal partner you chose, as soon as you talk to the third worker, you will be transported to the area with Mutoh and the workers will build the bridge. Go west, then north. This area used to be Symmetry City, but it is now in ruins, with lava everywhere and buildings destroyed. Kind of reminds me of Cinnabar Island from Generation 2 of Pokemon, only decidedly more tragic. Go west, then slash the tree for a new kind of seed: Gale Seeds. You can use these to "teleport" you, for lack of a better word, to any seed tree. Now cut the grass around the tree to find two time portals (gotta be symmetrical, remember). Play the Harp of Ages to get transported to the past, back when the town actually had inhabitants.

Go into the building here. Talk to either of the women here and they will explain that their sacred symbol, the Tuni Nut, is broken, which caused the volcano to start erupting. Now go down either of the staircases. Talk to the man here, and he expresses his wish to work out. However, he has only one dumbbell, and it goes against the entire city's policy to only do something on one side, meaning he'll probably be arrested and cut into tiny pieces (which will of course be symmetrical). Give him your dumbbell, however, and he's free to work out on both sides. He will give you his Cheesy Mustache.

Now go upstairs and leave the building. Go north, then east, and into the building. Talk to the man here and he will say that he was injured and that if you want the Tuni Nut, you'll have to go see his brother on the other side of town. Leave the building, then go west twice and into the building. Talk to the man here and he'll reveal that he wants to take the Tuni Nut up Restoration Wall, but he can't because his brother is injured and can't move. This is Symmetry City, ergo he can't move either. God, how does anybody get anything at all done here? Anyway, he'll give you the Tuni Nut, since of course it's your full time job to help other people by doing things they're too pathetic to do. Leave the building and go south twice.
