==The Lost Woods==
Whenever you walk through a passage in '''The Lost Woods''', you might inadvertently end up back in Kokiri Forest. It can be easy to get turned around.
The owl instructs you to follow the sound of the music. As you stand at each possible exit, only one has music emanating from it. You follow it into the next area. Again you listen for the music at each passage. Then you follow the music. You continue this until you arrive at the Sacred Forest Temple.

==Follow your ears==
[[File:OoT Lost Woods2.jpg|thumb|Look and listen carefully to select a direction.]]
Kaepora Gaebora, the lighthearted owl, instructs you to follow the sound of the music. As you stand at each possible exit, only one has music emanating from it. Follow it into the next area. Listen for the music at each passage and follow the tune. Also, if you look down a path and there is a star of light, this indicates an exit from the Lost Woods. Most of these paths place you back at [[../The Beginning|Kokiri Forest]]. Eventually, this will lead you into the Sacred Forest Meadow. It is the only exit which has music playing from it.


===A New Song===
Note: If you've come here immediately after getting your sword and shield, you'll certainly get lost. If your intention is revealing the first part of the map, go right and forward to reveal a small part of Goron City. You can't go through currently because of the boulders in the way. For directions to the [[#Sacred Forest Meadow|Sacred Forest Meadow]] where the [[../Forest Temple|Forest Temple]] is, go right, left, right, left, forward, left and right. It will foreshadow things you'll have to deal with later in the game.
You see that the gate is closed. As you begin to approach it, a [[Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Enemy List|Wolfos]] appears.  Defeating him removes the gate.  You enter the narrow passages before you and use your shield to defend yourself against the [[Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Enemy List|Mad Scrubs]] found throughout this area.  Finally you make it to the opposite side.  Down a final, narrow passage is a pair of Mad Scrubs.  After dealing with them, you enter into a meadow where Saria sits on a stump playing her ocarina. Speak to her and she teaches you a new song, Saria's Song.  With it you can speak to her whenever and wherever you are.  Back down the narrow passage you go, but this time you go up the ladder above the maze.  In the middle is a hole.  Dropping down, you find a fairy fountain.  An empty bottle would be good to capture one of those fairies.


===More Deku Sticks===
===Sacred Forest Meadow===
While in the forest, you decide to explore a little. Taking the wrong path always leads you out to Kokiri Village. You do this and head back into the Lost Woods. Then head left. A boy called Skull Kid is playing and dancing on a stump. You head left again.  There is the bridge from which you left Kokiri Village earlier.  Dropping down below it, you move to the other side of the area and find a [[Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Enemy List|Business Scrub]]. After you defeat him, he offers to increase your Deku Stick capacity in exchange for 40 rupees.
[[File:OoT Lost Woods Sacred Forest.jpg|left|thumb|Watch out!]]
When you reach the meadow, you'll see that a gate blocks your path. If you approach it, a {{im/oot|Enemies|Wolfos}} will appear. This beast is a tricky foe, but easy to defeat, and you must kill it to open the gate. When it attacks backflip then jump attack its tail. You can also simply walk backwards a short distance when it winds up to attack, and use a {{im/oot|Items|Deku Stick}} instead of your sword to kill it without jump attacking. Enter into the narrow passageway and use your shield and your {{im/oot|Items|Deku Nut|display=Deku Nuts}} or slingshot to defend yourself against the {{im/oot|Enemies|Mad Scrub|display=Mad Scrubs}} throughout this area, and you will make it to the opposite side. Down a final, narrow passage is a pair of Mad Scrubs blocking a staircase. After dealing with them, you'll enter into a meadow where Saria sits on a stump playing her ocarina.
 
Note: You can also do this when you first get your sword and shield. If you defeated the Wolfos prior to this, you will not be forced to face him again.

===A new song===

To exit the Sacred Forest Meadow, go back the way you came until you see a ladder that will allow you to bypass the maze from above. Climb it and you will also see a hole in the middle. If you drop down there, and you will find a Fairy Fountain. Handy if you happen to have an empty bottle. These fairies can revive you automatically whenever you die.

{{Zelda PoH|float=none|width=100%|title=[[../Heart Containers#The Lost Woods|A Heart Piece]]|contents=[[File:LoZ OOT Sksong.jpg|left|150px]]Now that you have Saria's Song, return to the Skull Kid in the Lost Woods. From the entrance to the Lost Woods from Kokiri Forest, go to the left. Stand on the lower stump and pull out your ocarina and play Saria's Song. Skull Kid shows his appreciation by giving you a {{im/oot|Upgrades|Piece of Heart}}.{{-}}

==Sidequests==


===Skull Kid's Heart Piece===
At this point, you can [[../Dodongo's Cavern|continue on your quest]], or you may want to stop off at some of the other attractions woods have to offer.
When you return to Skull Kid, you decide to approach him, but he runs away. Next time you enter the area, you stand on the lower stump. Since he's playing a musical instrument, you pull out your ocarina.  He's delighted.  You play Zelda's Lullaby for him.  He likes it, but "it isn't Saria's Song."  So you play Saria's Song.  He loves that, and shows his appreciation by giving you a Heart Piece.


===Target Practice===
===More Deku Sticks===
From Skull Kid, you go right, back toward the Kokiri entrance, but then straight ahead.  Here you find what appears to be a cymbal hanging from a tree.  Aiming well with your Fairy Slingshot, you hit it dead-center three times in a rowA Deku Scrub emerges from the top of the tree and give you a larger bag with which to hold Deku Seeds.

While in the forest, you may decide to explore a little. Taking the wrong path always leads you out to Kokiri Forest. Do this and head back into the Lost Woods, then turn left.  A boy Skull Kid is playing and dancing on a stump.  Turn left again.  Here is the bridge from which you left Kokiri Village earlier.  Climb the ladder down the ledge nearby to the and move to the other side of the area and find a {{im/oot|Enemies|Business Scrub}}. You can defeat him by reflecting the nuts he shoots with your shield, by throwing a {{im/oot|Items|Deku Nut}} at him, or by shooting him with your {{im/oot|Items|Fairy Slingshot}}After you defeat him, he offers to increase your {{im/oot|Items|Deku Stick}} capacity in exchange for 40 rupees.
You'll be able to carry 20 instead of 10 from here out. It's not much, but it's helpful later on.

===Forest Stage: Mask Performance===
{{-}}
Anytime you have a new mask, drop by the Forest Stage.  From the Goron Village entrance, take a left.  You'll see a pool of water ahead.  Take a left.  Take another left.  Here you find a meadow with a couple of Business Scrubs.  There's a tree at the back.  There to the left of the tree is a group of butterflies hovering around the same general area.  Walk around this area until you fall through a hole.  You've arrived at the Forest Stage. 


Put on a mask and approach the front of the stage (the raised portion with the sign on it)Many scrubs will pop up and dance around you joyfully.  Walk over to a larger Scrub on the rightHe will reward you with something, depending on the mask you are wearing.

See [[Zelda: Ocarina of Time/The Happy Mask Shop| The Happy Mask Shop]] for more details.
Put on a mask and approach the front of the stage.  Many Deku scrubs will pop up and dance around you joyfully. If you wear the {{im/oot|The Happy Mask Shop|Mask of Truth}} here, the scrubs will say that you have a most hideous face, but will give you a {{im/oot|Items|Deku Nut|display=Deku Nut upgrade}} anyways. However, this must be done before you progress too far in the [[../Item Trading|Item Trading quest]], otherwise the Deku Scrubs will only reward you with a few rupees instead. Finally, wearing the {{im/oot|The Happy Mask Shop|Skull Mask}} here will give you a {{im/oot|Items|Deku Stick|display=Deku Stick upgrade}}. Wearing the same mask over and over will make them attack you or just stare at you.
