You've just got the Still Missing Main Quest, and you've cleared both Gerudo Desert and Jabul Waters sections of The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. But where do you go from here?

Zelda needs to return home to try and find her missing father, the King, but there are dangers lurking at Hyrule Castle Town, and you might just need a helping hand.

In this section of our walkthrough, we're covering the Still Missing Main Quest, which covers returning to Hyrule Castle Town for the first time and the Stilled Hyrule Castle Town Rift.

You won't be able to return to Hyrule Castle town until after you've completed both the Gerudo Sanctum and Jabul Ruins dungeons.

Once you've done that and rescued General Wright, you'll be advised to return to Lueberry's House. Warp back to the nearby Waypoint from the map to Lueberry's (it's marked by a Sword symbol on the map) and then head isndie.

Speak to Lueberry, Wright, and Lefte, and you'll find out that you need to head back to Hyrule Castle Town. It's far north of Lueberry's House, but there are paths leading directly to it, so you shouldn't have too much trouble finding it.

You should be able to explore a large part of Hyrule Field too, and now is a great time to do it. Some stuff will still be off-limits to you until you've saved the king, but if you want Heart Pieces, Might Crystals, or Stamps, then you can make a start by looking at our guides and maps.

We also recommend heading to Kakariko Village, which is in the northwest part of the map. Activate the Waypoint there, make some Smoothies at the Smoothie Shop, and check out the Slumber Dojo if you want to delay your trip home.

Return to Hyrule Castle Town

Once you return to Hyrule Castle Town, there's a commotion outside the front gates — the rift has overtaken almost the entire town, and you need to do something about it. You need to find a rift entrance, and as you walk in, Tri will tell you that it's below the town.

To get underneath the castle town, head to the northwest side of the town. Behind a house with a red roof you'll spot a well. Jump down it. Just behind the guard, you'll see a rift entrance. Jump in and you'll be inside the Stilled Hyrule Castle Town Rift.

Head up the stairs ahead of you to reach the inside of the guard house, and then head south out of the door to reach the outside of the rift.

Head right towards the item shop — head inside and fight some echoes if you want — and then walk behind the store to reach a building on its side. Walk across it and follow the path north across the broken castle until you reach the fountain.

Fight some more enemies and continue heading north and you'll reach a Waypoint and a chest containing 7 Radiant Butter, a Smoothie ingredient that will make you glow. Using some Echoes, you can get to the top of the castle wall to the left to get 20 rupees from another chest.

Swim up the river and continue to climb using the trees and your Echoes until you reach the entrance of Hyrule Castle, and your next dungeon.
