Location: Kokiri Forest

1. After you get control, we have 2 goals, get a sword and get a shield.
2. Getting the sword will help with getting money for the shield, so lets get that first. Head to the southwest corner of the village to find some fences and a hole to crawl through.
3. Item - Kokiri SwordAvoid the rock while you run around the square, to a chest that has the Kokiri Sword! Head back to the village.
4. Item - Deku ShieldCut the bushes, run through the tall grass, do some exploring to find 40 rupees. Once you have 40, head to the store and buy the Deku Shield!
5. Now that you have both, head east to the Great Deku Tree. Listen to his tale and then head on in for the first dungeon.
