Elder and guide · Eastern Palace region

Sahasrahla understands Hyrule’s history and the significance of the Master Sword. He guides Link toward the pendants needed for the early quest.

  • Story: His location near the Eastern Palace makes him a key early contact. Returning after the first pendant leads to an important movement reward.
  • In the game: Do not leave the region permanently after defeating the first dungeon boss. Speak with him again and test the Pegasus Boots on obstacles that previously resisted ordinary movement.
