Finally I have made some progress. First I followed up on a hint I got in Animal Village and found the ocarina. Unfortunately, I don’t know any songs yet.
Next, I followed another hint and went down to the beach, finding Marin. She told me a little story through means of a cut scene. She longed to know what, if anything, existed beyond the confines of this island. She then followed me back to Animal Village. Here she played a song which woke up the walrus blocking the way to Yarna Desert. She also taught me a song on my ocarina.
In Yarna, I found the anglers key and was directed to jump in a waterfall. I wandered around finding the place to use the key then found my way to jump into the waterfall. I’m going to take a break before tackling the fourth palace.
Time played: 1 hour
