Getting the Brother Emblem to advance.

You get Rock Brisket or was it Rock Sirloin.

Go right and enter the right Cave. Go right and down the stairs. Move the top block right, then the bottom block in the pit. Repeat this step with the next group of blocks. Exit the Cave and go right, up, left. Lift the middle Stone and play the Harp of Ages to unlock a Time Portal. Enter the Time Portal and go in the right Cave. Talk with the Goron there. He want to borrow 20 Bombs and 20 Ember Seeds from you. Say yes, but if you don't have enough, then come back again.

Exit the Cave and go left to discover a hidden Soft Soil under the spot surrounded by Bushes and plant a Gasha Seed there. Doing that will let that digging Goron be finished with the digging, so return to the Goron again to choose one of both chests, but it don't matter since both chests are the same. You will get Red Luck Ring from the chest. Exit and play the Tune of Currents to return to the present. Go right and enter the Cave. Go down the stairs and step on the button to open the bridge. Go left and exit the Cave. Go along the sole path until you find a small tree. If you burn it with Ember Seeds and talk with the Old Man, then you have to pay him 100 Rupees for destroying the door. That remind one of the old Zelda games, where you have to pay too for destroying door and so.

Go up and if you need some healing, then go in the left Cave to grab some Fairy. Go then in the right Cave. Go up to play the Goron Dance to receive Brother Emblem. Now show it to the Goron Guard before the stairs. He will move from there, but ask you for help, since he's hungry. Leave the Cave and go left. Slash the sole bush there and play the Tune of Echoes to travel to the past. Go right, down and burn down the Tree to visit the Old Man there. But unlike the Present he will give you 200 Rupees. Now go back up to visit Goron Dancing Hall where the difficulty will be raised higher, but you can win Bomber's Ring at Platinum Level which you can't obtain elsewhere!

Trading Goron Vase for Goronade. Now you can go and play Big Bang Game.

File:Zelda Oracles Overworld Big Bang Game.png

You lost the Big Bang Game. Try again!

Now talk with the Stairs Guard to move away and he too ask you for something to shown his future generation that the life is worth it. Go up the stairs and slash the bushes for some Pegasus Seeds and use it to jump left to the stairs up. Use the Switch Hook to swap yourself with the Bush across to get 100 Rupees from the chest. Exit the Cave and go down. Kill the Tektites first, then use the Switch Hook to swap the Vine Sprout to the Ledge where it belongs to. Now play the Tune of Currents and climb up the Vine (There is another Soft Soil under the Stones) and go right. Lift the right Stone to uncover a Time Portal. Now enter the Cave and play another Game. This time it's Target Carts. You can win Rock Sirloin the first time. After that it's 50 Rupees each times.

Outside play the Tune of Echoes and play yet another game called Goron Shooting Gallery where you can get Lava Juice. You should also get File:Zelda Oracles Boomerang.png Boomerang either here or at Target Carts. Leave the Cave and jump off the Ledge. You will then come across a Mystery Tree and Great Fairy in the Cave. Jump off the Ledge again and you're in the front of the Goron Dancing Hall again. Play the Tune of Currents to return to the present and go inside. Give the Rick Sirloin to the Goron Guard and you'll receive Goron Vase for it. Now return to the past and trade Goron Vase for Goronade. Return to the present once again. Go up the stairs past the Goron Guard. Swap along using the Switch Hook left, up, then go right to get 10 Bombs from the Chest. Go left and up the stairs twice.

Give the tired Goron Goronade and you can play Big Bang Game. Once you win this game, then you'll get Old Mermaid Key. Go down and up the stairs. Jump off right to get Gasha Seed from the chest. Leave the Cave and return to the Goron Dancing Hall. Go left and play the Tune of Echoes. Go left, up and enter the Cave. Bomb the Cracked Blocks away to get another Gasha Seed. Go right and use the Switch Hook to get across, but don't go up the stairs yet. Instead use the Switch Hook to get across to a chest with 50 Rupees.

Go up and exit the Cave. Go right and bomb the Wall. Enter it and get 100 Rupees and leave. Slash the Bushes right away and play the Tune of Currents to obtain the secondlast Pieces of Heart found ingame. Return to the past and go left, down. Jump off the Ledge and enter the Cave. Talk with the Goron there and trade your Lava Juice for the Letter of Introduction, but only if you have the Old Mermaid Key in your possession. Now return to the Goron Dancing Hall and play the Goron Dance to win Mermaid Key. Now leave the Hall and go left and dive under the Waterfall to the Mermaid's Cave.

Since you don't have the Mermaid Suit yet you can't do anything for now. Go left and swim to the far left for the Dungeon Map. The Bubbles can be killed with Boomerang. Return to the Entrance and go up and left for the Compass after you've slayed all four Gels there.

Go right, up twice and kill three Candleheads and two Keeses to open up the door to the next room. In this room you need to kill two Template:Shrouded Stalfos to pick up Small Key. Go left, down and unlock the door to the left. Kill the Blue Wizzrobe first before using the Cane of Somaria to place a red block on the right Button. Destroy all Pots except the one in the middle. Move it on the left Button to open the door. Kill the two Floormasters first, since they can bring you back to the Entrance. Destroy the Blocks with Bombs along with the northern wall which has a secret passage to the north. Once the hole in the wall is made, exit the Dungeon and play the Tune of Currents.
