Isle of Frost

Head to the northeastern corner of this map section, where another island is to be found on your map. When you reach it, draw a route around the circumference of the island and start blasting its icy shield with your cannon. Small enemies will attack you while you do so, so be sure to take them down before they sink you.

When you clear out the entire ice shield, you'll be able to dock on the Isle itself.

Meet the Anouki

Start talking to the Anouki characters around town here, and most of them will tell you to talk to the village chief, who dwells in a hut in a little rise on the eastern side of town here. If you find him and speak to him, he'll give you a task: find the Yook that has infiltrated the Anouki Estates to the north and expose him for the liar that he is!

Head north to the Anouki Estates. There are two signs here that both read "Anouki Estates"; if you head to the easternmost sign and dig on the spot directly beneath it, you should find a 200-rupee piece.

The Liar Game

Your goal in the Estates is to examine the statements of the six residents of the homes here and find out who's lying. Each person will make a claim about one or two other residents, claiming either that they're liars or that they're honest. You need to find the truth!

Here's what everyone says about everyone else:

  • FoFo says Gumo is honest.
  • Kumu says Mazo or Aroo is lying.
  • Dobo says Mazo is honest.
  • Gumo says Fofo or Aroo is lying.
  • Aroo says Kumu is lying.
  • Mazo says that he and Dobo are honest.

The Solution

If you don't want to solve this puzzle on your own, read on…

One assumption you can make (this is the clue that you can pay the wandering Anouki for) is that everyone who tells you that someone else is honest is telling the truth. If a liar told you that someone else is honest, that means that the person they're talking about is actually a liar as well, which means that there would be two liars, which is impossible since you're only looking for one liar. Thus, you can strike Mazo, Dobo, and Fofo off your list of subjects automatically, leaving only Aroo, Gumo, and Kumu.

Thus, your list of statements is reduced to:

  • Kumu says Aroo is lying.
  • Gumo says Aroo is lying.
  • Aroo says Kumu is lying.

Since both Kumu and Gumo say that Aroo is lying, he's the only suspect left. Even if Aroo was correct about Kumu being a liar, that would only mean that Gumo's statement is correct, which wouldn't make any sense.

Exposing The Liar

Head to Aroo's house and rat him out. When you do so, he'll "blow you away" and run off. Return to the Chief at this point, and he'll open up the cave that leads to the east, allowing you to move on and find the Temple of Ice.

Through the Ice Field

Head through the cave to the east of the Anouki village to reach the ice field. There are six Yooks here. They're easy to kill: keep bombs equipped, get close to them, wait for them to inhale, then chuck a bomb at them. They'll somehow manage to suck the whole thing into their mouths, leaving them stunned when it explodes inside their bodies, letting you whack them with your sword. You need to kill all six Yooks to unlock the passage to the Temple.

Before you reach the Temple, a super Yook will appear! How on earth will you kill this ultra-difficult enemy? Well…you have to throw a bomb into his mouth and then hit him with your sword. It's complicated, we know, but you'll figure it out. This guy is a bit more complicated, to be fair, since he sometimes settles for sword swings instead of inhaling, but if you stay away from him and are quick with the bomb-throwing when your opportunity arises, he shouldn't be too problematic.
