There are many shops along Links travels in which Link can obtain items. Some shops are hidden and others are caves already exposed. Link pays Rupees to the merchants in return for the item. It is important to note that some shops have cheaper prices than others.

The Lost Hills at first appears to be barren, with a pathway out of it in each compass direction, and the common snail-like rocks everywhere. However, if Link tries to head in any direction other than to the left, he will end up back on the Lost Hills screen. In order for Link to acquire the fifth Triforce Shard, he must travel through the Lost Hills to find the fifth dungeon, The Lizard. In order to do so, he should head north from the Lost Hills four consecutive times, which will take him right to the dungeon.

Lost Woods

The Lost Woods are an area in the southwest of Hyrule. At first, this area seems pointless, as going in any direction leads back to the same screen. However, there is a combination of paths that'll allow Link to get through. The combination is: north, west, south, west.
