Faron's Den is located in Lake Floria in the forest area in Zelda Skyward Sword. She is the guardian of the forest, has the power of water, shares her home lake and den with the Parellas and you can find her by swimming all the way under the lake or to landed next to the Ancient Cistern/waterfall. It's faster if you land next to the waterfall/Ancient Cistern, their right next door to each other. You can also find her in the Great Tree, when you go find her to get her part of the Song of the Hero and has flooded the forest to keep the monsters out.

After you escape from being captured by the Bokoblins and getting your weapons back, you can go to the Fire Dragon, Eldin. He is the guardian of the volcanos, has the power of fire and has part of his land taken over by the Bokoblins. His den is close to the Fire Sanctuary, you can meet him when you come to get his part of the Song of the Hero.

Lanayru Gorge is the den of Lanayru, the Thunder Dragon. When you first get there by going through Lanayru Mine, the enters is close to way you land. When you first get here its all dead, just like the rest of the desert, including Lanayru himself. You must bring a cart that holds a Timeshift Stone and bring it to the Gorge to bring it and the dragon back to life. Its quite an obstacle to get it there, but if you stay in the stone's time shift ring and you'll be safe and be able to catch up with the cart.

I got the second flame after killing the weed octopus and panicked cause I didn't get the heart container before the cutscene and thought I'd just be short a heart forever

Talked to the lil' guy got back on the boat, got the heart and couldn't get off

Ended up having to kill all the robots to get off: (

Is there a way I could have the time shift stone still on and get off the boat?

so, its pretty rough and by far not complete but this is a rough layout for the map of destiny (my zelda fancomic), i mainly took it after skyward sword but added parts of botw into it (like lanayru street, the twin mountains that were one mountain until ch3, the gerudo highlands, akkala ref; among more general map overlap)

this ones with some super rough chapter markers and some descriptions, the circle doesnt mean the chapter doesnt go to multiple places but the main happening of it is there, its again, pretty rough and lacks the correct order yet too, ill prob add that with time as i write out the scripts for the next chapters, so far i got the order until chapter 6 (chapter 4 is mostly at hylias temple and since there are alot of chapters happening there its not marked seperately)

chapter 1: demon (complete)

chapter 2: a dance of ice and fire (script done)

chapter 3: moving mountains (name not final)

chapter 4: starry night

chapter 5: a wound for a wound (placeholder name)

chapter 6: curiosity (possibly placeholder name, forgot to mark it on the map even tho i know where it goes)

most other chapters i know where and whats happening but i cant remember the exact order, i gotta make a structured chapter chart soon so i dont have to think over everything every single time i need the order

this is probably not very interesting but, even tho it is just a rough layout more for myself than anything else, i thought id share anyway, i know my handwriting when i write fast and tired is hard to read but uh .. feel free to send me an ask about it if theres anything youd like to know (do mention if you are ok with spoilers for the story)

arson.

It’s Eldin’s turn to do something dumb. This may or may not involve setting trees on fire.

[Misfits of the 3 Dragons]

AO3

“Do you ever get the urge to just…set something on fire?”

Faron chuckles at Eldin’s comment. “All the time.”

“Good,” the Fire Dragon replies, scanning the forest for signs of Lanayru, and finding none. “Well, he’s not back yet, so what do you say?”

“Hm? I’m afraid I don’t follow…” Faron’s eyes go wide as she stares at Eldin’s fiery body. “Oh- you wanna burn Lanayru’s forest?? I don’t think that’s a good idea—“

“Oh no, not the whole thing. Just one tree! Don’t worry, I’m not that mean.”

The Water Dragon pauses in thought. “Well…I suppose we could get back at him for something, huh?”

“Yeah, maybe the way he goes into ‘overprotective dad’ mode around us? I know it’s because he cares, but sometimes it’s a bit much…”

“Well…that too. But I was thinkin’ of that time he was in my hall and got really mad at me. He used his lightning powers on that whole section of lake and all the fish died.”

Eldin gasps. “Woah, Lanayru!” He glances up at the sky instinctively to make sure the Thunder Dragon isn’t there. “I didn’t know he had that in him! Holy Hylia!”

“Yep. Every single fish. Gone.” Faron chuckles. “I suppose I had it coming, though. I made a few comments that pushed him over the edge. But like…that still wasn’t necessary.”

“So, uh…should my little arson crime be our revenge against his little fish mass-murder scheme?”

“Sure! We just gotta be quick about it. You light the tree on fire, watch it burn, I’ll put the fire out, and we’ll leave before Lanayru gets back. Then we can blame a robot.” Faron points to an LD-301 near them, who turns around and skitters away. It must have been listening in on their conversation.

“Faron, he won’t think a robot did it. He’ll know it was me. Just don’t tell him you were in on this.”

“Okay,” she replies, “I won’t.”

“Now stay back. Stuff’s about to get lit up!”

Taking a deep breath, Eldin closes his eyes and summons the fire power Hylia had blessed him with. Heat rages throughout his body as the magic flames float up to his mouth, ready to be released.

Farewell, little tree.

As he opens his eyes, he brings his focus down to the tree closest to him. In one swift motion he exhales, and the red-hot flames shoot out through the air and collide with the green leaves on scrawny branches. A safe distance away, Faron watches with a look of amazement.

“Wow…well done, fire boy!”

Soon the flames engulf more branches, spreading across the entire surface of the tree. The satisfying crackle fills Eldin’s ears like a beautiful song, and he breathes in the smell of fire and smoke that fills the air. He hasn’t been able to do a stunt like this in quite some time, and it feels wonderful.

“Ah, what can I say, Faron?” he speaks eventually. “Guess I’m a master at my craft.”

The Water Dragon flies in slightly closer, and the two watch the tree burn with cheeky smiles on their faces. Almost all the branches have been completely incinerated, and the fire has begun to spread down to the trunk. Eldin figures they should stop once neighboring trees start catching flames; he isn’t quite in the mood to burn down the whole forest, after all.

“You don’t have any trees in your area, don’t you?” Faron asks.

“Pretty much no.”

“What a shame. The only dragon out of the three of us without their own woods.”

Eldin smirks. “Well, not like mine would last that long anyway.” He sighs with content as he keeps his eyes on the scaldering sight he created. “Fire dragons and trees? You can see how that ends up!”

“Yeah, makes sense. Probably why Hylia didn’t want a—“ Faron cuts off suddenly as the two dragons hear a deep singing voice from the sky. She gasps as her eyes go wide. “Oh shit! Lanayru’s here!!”

“Uh-oh.” Eldin doesn’t bother to look up, for he too knows exactly who that voice belongs to. “Quick! Put out the fire!”

Unfortunately it also takes Faron a good few seconds to activate her own power, and Eldin fidgets with his rings nervously. He can still hear Lanayru zipping around through the air…it won’t be long before he notices.

“Okay, I’m ready!” the Water Dragon exclaims, shooting her claws out with a grunt. Large streams of water gush from each palm, completely soaking the tree and sizzling out every inch of flame. Now Eldin can see the charred remains of what used to be a lovely tree, several branches having snapped and fallen from his power burning through.

The fire may be out, but he knows they won’t be able to leave without a trace. The Thunder Dragon is coming now…he seems to have noticed as he flies down directly toward them.

“Just what do you think you're doing????” he bellows, glaring harshly at Eldin. “Did you just—set a tree on fire??”

Eldin gulps. “Um…yeah.”

“ELDIN!! I’ve told you this! You can’t just commit arson anywhere!! I mean—you almost started a forest fire!!”

“…But I didn’t,” he points out. “Faron came to stop it.”

“Yeah, I saw her do that. Thank Hylia.” Lanayru sighs, rubbing his forehead with one claw. “…Just…ugh, Eldin. Why?? Why did you do that??”

“Because it’s fun!” The Fire Dragon smirks, which only makes his older companion frown. “Or perhaps I am simply angry at you.”

“Huh? Wh-what did I do?”

“Ah, don’t act all innocent, Lanayru. I know what you did. You killed all of Faron’s fish with your lightning! Little fish murderer!!”

Lanayru’s brow furrows as he pauses in thought. “…What? I don’t—oh, that?” He briefly throws his head back in laughter. “Why are we still bringing that up? It was like…ten years ago!”

Wait…what??

Faron snickers, putting a hand to her mouth to hide her own giggles. You—meanie!

“Uh…Miss Faron, I think that would’ve been a good detail to add BEFORE I committed arson.”

“Ah, fire boy, it doesn’t matter,” she assures him. “You were gonna do it anyway!”

Pausing in thought, he shrugs his shoulders. “…Yeah, I was.”

A deep groan fills the air. Eldin glances at Lanayru, whose head is now buried in both claws. The old dragon seems completely spent, so tired at putting up with the two youngsters, and for a second Eldin twinges with regret. Perhaps he should have lit up Faron’s woods instead…

“Ugh,” Lanayru mumbles. “You two are just—aaahh! I love both of you to bits, but…” Slowly he lifts his head to glare at them. “You’re driving me insane!!”

“Sorry, Lanayru. It was a lot of fun, though.”

“Well, I’m glad that destruction of my property was fun to you, Eldin.” The sarcasm is evident in the Thunder Dragon’s voice. “Now I have a burnt tree in my woods. Oh joy. Exactly what I wanted, huh? A burnt tree.”

“Then just dig it up and plant a new one!”

“Wait- plant a new one?? Do you know who you’re talking to here? I can’t plant a tree to save my life! Why don’t you plant it instead, since you burned it?!”

Eldin smirks. “You think I can plant trees?? Think about where I live for a second, won’t ya?”

Lanayru sighs with frustration, and slowly the two dragons turn their gazes to Faron. The only one who knows how to plant a healthy tree.

“Fine,” the Water Dragon replies. “I’ll do it. But I think this is a good skill for you two to learn.”

“Sure,” says Lanayru. “You just have to teach us!”

“…Well, shit.”

Eldin bursts into laughter at Faron’s response. Clearly the last thing she wants to do is teach the others how to plant a tree.

“You know what?” she continues. “If it will help you buffoons learn something, maybe I will one day. Or I’ll have Link teach you instead.” Glancing at the charred spot of grass below them, she grins slightly. “Don’t worry, Lanayru, I’ll have this taken care of.”

“Hrrmph,” Lanayru mutters. “I think I need to go lie down. Eldin, you’re temporarily banned from this area without my supervision.”

“Ah, shucks.” Well…should’ve seen that coming. “…I guess I’ll just commit arson somewhere else, then!”

“Don’t you dare. I’ll be watching you.”

…Fine.

Eldin watches as Lanayru glides over the treetops toward his own clearing, much larger than this one. If he can’t set anything on fire now…well, he figures he’ll just have to get creative. With a sigh, he turns his focus to Faron, as she digs up the burnt tree with her claws and discards it onto the grass.

At least it was fun while it lasted.

[seagullcharmer]

hm. working on my map of lorule. need to figure out some things......

[notasocialismjoke]

i stopped fast traveling ~150 hours ago in tears of the kingdom and if the size of that number wasn't any indication it's been super fun, the game feels made for it. i've been heading to the gerudo desert for the past real life week and i still haven't gotten there bc i keep getting distracted by stuff in my immediate area.

[skyloftian-nutcase]

Disuse

Link wasn't sure what had occurred here for the area to have fallen into such disuse. Nowhere in the Sky looked like this, looked like it had been abandoned or destroyed and left to rot. Disturbed, he tapped the timeshift stone, watching the world come to life once more, relieved at the sight of all the buzzing little friends.

[baileyboo2016]

Link: I hate to break it to you, Grandpa, but in the next 1000 years your entire land will dry up into a desert and all your little robot friends will die.

Lanayru: I know.

Lanayru: …

Lanayru: Did you just call me Grandpa?

[shyrule]

okay you know what potential hottake but i think Hyrule would go absolutely batshit at an amusement park like mans an adrenaline junkie going on all the rides n rollercoasters
