The Forest Firefly |
- Head behind the Deku Tree and you should see a firefly that is bigger and brighter than the rest of them near another smaller tree, it also changes colors, making it a little easier to spot. Catch this firefly in a bottle and head back to the Great Deku Tree's face.
- You should see a Boko Bulb along the way, jump into it. It looks similar to a Boko Baba's roots, but is slightly discolored. Turn yourself so you face the stem of the other bulb and press forward on the control stick. When the bulb launches you, you should land in the next one.
- Continue doing this, and when you reach the fourth bulb, push towards the small tree so that you land on it. |
| - You should notice a korok standing on the ledge. Climb up there and play the Wind's Requiem to make the wind blow it southwest. Hop of the ledge and use your Deku Leaf to float over to the small island in the ocean.
- Cut down the grass for some extra magic and blow the wind northwest. This part can be tricky. You have to time your jump just right so that you float over the small cyclone so it pushes you up. It's best to jump when the cyclone is to the south of the island. If you miss, just drop and try again. |

| - Head up the ledge to the right, killing any Green ChuChus you find along the way. Open the chest at the top for the map.
- You can't go through the door, because there is a flower that has grown over it. When you approach the flower, it closes so you can't harm it. In the northwest corner of the room, there is a nut. Grab it and throw it from a distance at the flower while it's open to kill it.
- Head through the door and drop down. Hold forward so you roll at the bottom and don't get hurt. Now, defeat the two Boko Babas and the four Green ChuChus surrounding the chest.
- Pick up one of the Boko Sticks and light it using the torch. Throw it at the plant to kill it and open the chest for a Knight's Crest. Use the Boko Bulbs and the Deku Leaf to make your way to about the middle of the room where the door with another flower on it is.
- Defeat the Green ChuChus near the bomb to the right of the door, and place the bomb next to the flower. Remember, it only dies if it's open. Head through the door. |

- Climb up the ramp in the middle of the room and kill the three Boko Babas at the top. The one on the right will transform into a Boko Bulb. Hop in and land on the ledge to the right of it. Jump in this bulb and jump up to the left.

Grab the nut and place it on the cart. Jump off to the north and use your Deku Leaf to float and land in the small section inside the tree, open the chest for a Red Rupee. |
| - Use the Boko Bulbs to get back to the top of the tree, then blow air at the switch to bring the cart over to you. Grab the nut and throw it at the flower. If the nut broke, try again, but this time stay on the cart as you head back, since you already opened the chest. When you succeed in opening the door, head through it.
- If you approach the nut, several vines will spring up and cause you to run into them. Instead, use the Deku Leaf to blow the nut towards the door and head around the vines. Throw the nut at the flower to kill it and head through the door.
- There is a large tree suspended in the center of the room, but we can't do anything about it right now. Instead, head to the right and grapple across. Hop across by using the moving branch things and grab the nut you find.
- Hop over to the tree and head inside for nine rupees. Walk around the outside of the tree so that you jump off on the west side. Throw the nut at the flower and then use the moving branches to the left to climb to the top of the room. Blow the leaves off of the pot, then head back down and through the door.

- Once it's on the ground, fight it like you did the last Mothula. Once you kill it, some bars will slide up, allowing you access to a chest. Open it for the Boomerang. |

- Get out your boomerang for this battle, you'll need it. Kalle Demos wil attach itself to the ceiling with some of its vines. Use the Boomerang to target them and cut them loose from the ceiling while avoiding the attacks from the vines. If they glow, they are about to whip down to try and hit you. If the vines bury themselves, don't worry about cutting down the other ones, but run around until they all surface again.
- When all the vines have been cut down, it's time to charge in and attack the center, the part that swallowed Makar. Hit it a few times and back away. If you stay there too long, the petals will fold in and cause you some heavy damage. Keep doing this until you defeat the evil plant, causing it to wither and die. Makar will be freed and a heart container will be left where Kalle Demos once stood.
