The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past/Kakariko Village

Head to the X and talk to the old lady in the house there. Unfortunately it turns out the wise man has disappeared, so now you have to find out where. To do this you'll need to talk to people in town.

During your time in Kakariko watch out for the women patrolling outside the north-west and north-eastern houses; they'll cry out if they see you and a soldier will attack.

But first, goodies! The thieves' house to the left of the wise man's has chests full of red rupees just begging to be taken. But what about that cracked wall? Well, first you need some bombs. Fall down the well in the north-western corner of the village for a chest full of bombs. Blow down the wall near the chest with the bombs in for a Piece of Heart! Now head back to the thieves' hideout and bomb that wall for a second Piece of Heart.

If you have at least a hundred Rupees, head to the marketplace and buy a Bottle. It isn't a necessary item but it's very useful.

Head to the bottom of the village and look for some chickens, called cuccos in the Zelda universe. Talk to the boy there and you'll find out where the old man's gone. He will mark it on your map for you.

Before you go, go left to the building with no door at the South-West end of the village, blow up where the door should be with a bomb to reveal the entrance, inside there are two rats, a few rupees under the pots and 4 bombs under the pots. Also go to the tavern left of the boy and enter from the top entrance, inside you will find another Bottle. To put things in bottles you need a net. Go north of the tavern and enter the house you see there. Talk to the boy in bed to receive the Bug-catching Net.

Sahasrahla
To find the old man, exit town trough the south entrance, you will come to a screen with some other houses (a library, a chest game and a house of two twins). Exit through the southeast then go south. From here go east, then north to where your house is located. Keep going east until you come to a bridge to the north. Cross the bridge and go east from there, following the road. In the next screen go north and you will enter the palace area. Now just keep going north until you find a small, fat, T-shaped building, Sahasrahla resides here.

Talk to the old man and he will task you with getting the first pendant, in the Eastern Palace, just a bit to the east. Now exit the house, go up the stairs to the north and make your way east while fighting (or avoiding) the Armos Statues that come to life and the octorocks, until you come to the palace entrance.
