Anybody has a list of where to find the gratitude crystal lying around at night?

Of course, I'd ask a list of NPC giving them in quests too, but this seems too much to ask.

in the room of link and zelda, in the place where you have rescued your bird at the beginning of the game. and also look in every house, can't remember exactly.

I found a rattle in Skyloft. Who do I give it to?
Where is the rattle in skyloft?
when you jump off the island with two waterfalls you can dive to a tower in the middle of the town. there is a nest where you can land and there is the rattle

where do i get paper from?

when it is day, go near the toilet, the guy will give you a loveletter. you can use it as paper, it doesn't matter if you give the letter to the one in the toilet or to the girl you will get 5 crystals

I gave the letter to the hand in the toilet, but it just left and i didn't get anything.
and thanks for the rattle tip.

How do you go in Zelda's room if there is one? It's locked for me.


Here is what I found so far:

Crystals:

-Pumpkin restaurant island
-Side of Light tower after climbing the first ladder.
-Link's room
-Zelda's room (I can't access it, it's looked)
-Waterfall place where you rescued your bird

Quest:

-Lost little girl
-Girl lost on an island with her bird (you get 2x 5 crystals here, from the girl and her brother, as well as an empty bottle)
-Love letter/toilet quest (you can get it on both path of the quests, there is another event after giving the paper to the person in the toilet)
-Fun Land guy if you get his party wheel back.
-Cleaning Pipil's house

I can assume the guy who ask for stamina potions will give 5 eventually, but I gave him one, then after a while, he got stronger and he asked for another, but after giving this one, the dialogue never changes in either day or night.

As for Piece of heart:

-One in Faron Wood on the side of the great tree, gotta walk on a tightrope.
-One behind a wall you bomb with wood.
-A goddess cube get you a piece of heart in the sky from faron wood.
-First dungeon: In the big room, there is a PoH at the bottom of the little tower. There is a switch you can hit with the beetle above.
-In Eldin Volcano, there is a piece of heart on the higher ledge. Pretty easy to get, look at the map and you can see you can go around and climb there.
-One PoH can be obtained from knocking the chandelier in the Pumpkin island.
-Another can be obtained by doing every tasks the guy gives you to repay the chandelier.
-Another PoH can be obtained when you can dive underwater. It's in the stable in town with another chest, gotta find a place to dive in a tunnel. Need to activate a goddess cube, but I can't remember where.
-A PoH can be obtained in fun land by going through the five rings, not hitting a ball and landing on 50 rupees space (this one is very hard to get as it also rely on luck)
-The guy give you one for bringing 5 crystals.

I assume Thrill digger gives one, haven't played this game yet.

Adventure pouch:

-3 can be bought from Beedle at 300, 600 and 1200 rupees.
-1 is found from a goddess cube from Faron Wood I think.

About the crystals, you can DOWSE to find them. There are crystals on Skyloft, on Pumpkin Island and on Beedle's Island, make sure to dowse by day and by night on all places.
To get the one in Zelda's room, you just go to the top of the academy and use the clawshot. You'll get to see Gaepora taking a bath on the way.
You get 5 crystals from Fledge, you have to give him 2 stamina potions and wait, you can only get the crystals at the end of the game.
You get crystals for returning the rattle to the potion shop owner (Bertie), the crystal ball to the medium (the ball is above the entrance to the Fire Temple, just use your clawshot to get it), the colossus bug to Beedle (go to the bug resort next to the Isle of Song.

One tricky heart piece is drawing an arrow on the magic tile on the back of the Sealed Grounds. There is a Goron their doing research on it. Look at the Skyloft gossip stone video about drawings to see how to draw the arrow.

Figured, was just wondering cuz there's a chest in town I want to get to but I need to be able to dive in the water to get to it =/


Hehe yeah I walked around for quite a bit searching for an alternative route (there is none, btw)... Nothing to do but let it be for the time being.

Guys, this is driving me nuts. I had to take a break from the game for a few days, but now I'm back and visiting Skyview Temple for the second time on the quest for Sacred Water. I'm supposed to get it from the deepest part of the dungeon, but in order to get there I have to cross a tightrope guarded by two archers. I tried stunning them with the slingshot, blowing them over with the gust bellows and dropping bombs on them with the beetle. How the hell do I take them out!?

But how do I drop down before they hit me with their arrows? I don't even have enough time to lose balance, they hit me once and I fall into the chasm.

Try using a bomb with the beedle.

Try using a bomb with the beedle.
Like I said in my initial post, I already tried that. There's a bomb plant in the huge room where you first get the beetle (the room from the demo), but the distance is too great. The bomb explodes before I make it to the rope. I also tried using my own bombs by placing one on the ground and picking it up with the beetle. But this only results in an even shorter travel distance.

when you say pumpkin island do you mean the quest to work off the damage because there is also a plow quest. how did you get the beedle quest started?
