My return to Lookout Landing was fairly uneventful, so I just went off exploring again. Near Wetland Stable, I found a guy named Izra, who wanted someone to accompany him on a raft ride. So we headed off on a leisurely ride down the river, down towards Floret Sandbar.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Riding<\/a>
He didn’t even sing me a sea shanty. \ud83d\ude41<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

I took some photos of some ducks, and other wildlife, along the way. The ride took over seven minutes of real time (and almost seven hours of in-game time)! And once we arrived at our destination, we were greeted by none other than Magda the crazy flower lady<\/a> from Breath of the Wild!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Magda:<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

But fortunately, she chilled out a bit once Izra “volunteered” to stay and help out with her plant sanctuary. She still gets mad if you walk on flowers, though. \ud83d\ude1b <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If nothing else, Floret Sandbar was a good place to get some photos of some flowers I hadn’t encountered yet (for the Hyrule Compendium).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not far from there, I ran into another crazy lady, this one named Juney. She has a wagon full of stuffed seals to deliver to children. But anytime you talk to her, she freaks out and screams, scaring her horse, which causes her stuffed seals to fly off into the river.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Juney:<\/a>
Watch out for loose seals.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

She then wants your help…and a 20-rupee deposit, which she’ll pay back if<\/em> you can get all the seals back within three minutes. Even if you get most of them back, that’s not good enough for her. Why would it need such a strict 3-minute time limit anyway, when she’s just hanging out there, rehearsing her speech anyway? No idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If\/when you fail, you have to start the entire thing over…including scaring her (again), her scaring the horse (again), and so on. It took me three tries to collect all of the seals out of the water, and I hated every second of it. I hated Jumpy Juney too. Ugh. Worst part of the game so far. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After climbing Mount Lanayru and activating the tower there, I flew up to an interesting sky island. It led me back down to the surface, where I had to shield surf through some green holographic rings. Pretty cool!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Shield<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

At the end, a new shrine opened up…where I had to fight without any of my equipment. It reminded me of Eventide Island<\/a> in Breath of the Wild, but this was much shorter and easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After wandering around more, I found myself at Upland Zorana Skyview Tower. I had to clear away some sludge to activate it. I could see Zora’s Domain from around here, so I floated on down. I cleared some sludge off of a statue that featured some familiar faces, and I met Yoda. Uh, Yona, mean I. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Yona:<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

The sludge falling from the sky is a big problem at Zora’s Domain, and of course, they need my help to clean it up. (Can’t I use Mario’s F.L.U.D.D.?<\/em>) I climbed up Mount Ploymus, and met up with an old friend who was very excited to see me.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Prince<\/a>
Oh, great. He’s a hugger.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

After catching up with Prince Sidon, I found a certain item nearby and returned it to Zora’s Domain. It allowed me to obtain the Zora armor, so I can now swim up waterfalls! Very helpful. \ud83d\udc1f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m doing some other tasks now, which are clearly leading up to the next temple. But I didn’t dive in just yet; I’ll save that for next time. For now, here are my latest stats. My play time is currently at 45 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"My<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

See you all next time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
