Swim out of the water and start walking up the pathway nearby. As soon as you head towards the staircase you will hear a whistling noise and Tetra will begin talking with you. She apologizes for the rough landing and tells you she slipped a stone into you

This stone is called the Pirate's Charm. She notifies you that she can see what you're doing through the stone and that you can hear her through it. Tetra will also warn you that she needs it back once you save Aryll.

"Head up the first set of stairs and grab a barrel from the middle area. Link will hide under this barrel, making it easier for you to sneak around. This is to help prevent yourself from getting caught and thrown in jail.

Keep avoiding the searchlights and climbing the stairs nearby. Once you reach the hallway at the top it is safe to remove the barrel and head up the ramp to the right. When you get near the stairs Tetra will tell you that there's a monster running the searchlight up there. She tells you that she would use her shield to deflect the monster's blows and make it drop its weapon. With this in mind, climb the ladder to the searchlight.

Much like Tetra said, there are two ways to defeat this Bokoblin. One is to use your shield and wait for him to attack. The other is to find a pot nearby with wooden sticks that you can use to attack. Whichever way you choose, pick up a stick and attack the Bokoblin before it attacks you. Recover anything it drops, as it may be a Joy Pendant.

Once the Bokoblin is defeated, the searchlight won't work anymore, making it easier for you to sneak around the place. Head down the ladder and back down the ramp. At the bottom of the ramp (don't go down the stairs!) you will see a hallway. Head through the door to the right (the one closest to the searchlight) and drop down to the lower level in the room. Avoid the rats and move the barrels near the jail cell. Step on the switch behind them and enter the cell. Open the chest inside for Piece of Heart #1.

Pieces of Heart help you to gain more life, therefore making your quest easier and more manageable. You will need four of these pieces to receive another heart in your life meter. Once you get the Piece of Heart, head down the hallway towards the Moblins and get caught by them. Getting caught is easier than making our way back to where we need to go, so if you fall down or get lost, get yourself caught and continue from where you were.

Now that you're stuck in jail, climb up onto the table in your cell. Leap across to the book shelf and move the pot off of the top of it. Crouch in front of the hole and crawl into it, moving through so you can get back outside your jail cell.

Head down the hallway outside your cell and you'll end up above the room you were just in. Open the chest for the Dungeon Map and use the rope to swing across the room. Once you've made it across, head through the door to your left and then take the path immediately to your left. Climb the ladder and defeat the Bokoblin to take out the second searchlight.

"Climb down the ladder and walk back through the door to the right. Walk straight across the room and head through the door nearby. Continue straight down this hallway and through the door at the opposite end.

This room can be very tricky, so don't get frustrated if you can't do it your very first try. You'll have to sneak past the two Moblins while avoiding the rats in the room. If a rat runs into you, it can knock your barrel off, completely exposing you to the Moblins. So with that in mind, grab the barrel and slowly walk past the Moblin when he is not looking your way. Take it slow if necessary and stop if a Moblin comes near you.

Walk up the many stairs here until you see a barrel. Use it to sneak down the path and past the Moblin, heading up the path to the left when you get there.

You will eventually come to a gap that you cannot jump across. If you look to the right, there is a small ledge.

Walk towards the wall with the ledge and sidle across it.

"Walk around the corner and there will be another gap. Sidle across this one as well and head up the stairs. You should recognize this as the area where you dropped your sword. Once you start to run towards it to pick it up and you'll be attacked by a Green Bokoblin.

You'll find your sister, along with two more girls. Link hears something and looks up to see the Helmaroc King descending on him. He picks Link up in his beak and carries him up to a broken ship on the top of the Forsaken Fortress.
