Saria’s Song is a vital song to master early in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. This joyful melody will be useful throughout your trip, especially for changing Darunia’s mood. When you first meet Darunia inside Goron City, he will refuse to help because he is upset. Playing Saria’s Song will cheer him up and help you move forward in the story. This article will show the user how to obtain Saria’s Song in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
To begin, light a Deku Stick using the already-lit brazier inside Darunia’s room. Once the stick is lit, head outside and use it to light all the braziers around the area.
Make your way up and keep following the path until you reach a blocked tunnel with Bomb Flowers growing along the wall. Use your lit Deku Stick to set them off.
The explosion will destroy the rocks blocking the entrance and clear the way forward. Once the path is open, you should notice that Saria’s music is getting louder as you approach the tunnel.
Head through the newly opened passage to reach the Lost Woods. After arriving, you’ll meet Kaepora Gaebora. Your next task is to make your way through several tunnels.
The Lost Woods can be a little confusing. However, there’s a simple way to find the correct route. Pay attention to the music playing in the background. The closer you get to the correct path, the louder the music becomes. Follow the directions below to make your way through the maze:
Go right > Go left > Go right > Go left > Go straight ahead > Go left > Go right
After successfully navigating the Lost Woods, you’ll arrive at a locked gate at the Sacred Grove. Approach the gate, and a Wolfos enemy will appear. Defeat it to unlock the gate.
Head through it and continue along the maze-like path ahead. Be careful, as the area is filled with enemies that will attack as you make your way through. Follow the path from south to north using your mini-map to avoid getting lost.
Keep moving forward until you reach a set of stairs. Climb them, and you’ll finally find Saria. Talk to Saria, and she’ll teach you Saria’s Song.
Return to Goron City and visit Darunia. Play Saria’s Song on your Ocarina, and you’ll immediately notice a change in his mood. He’ll cheer up and finally agree to help you with your adventure.
