    Between Sealed Grounds and Faron Woods: Gorko will give you a Heart Piece after you showing him how to draw a heart symbol on the Goddess Wall by the shrine entrance.

    Eldin Volcano: The Heart Piece is above the area in the southwest of Eldin Volcano. Send the Beetle past it, then run it into a bomb by the shelled Pyrup to take it out. Set a waypoint marker on your map to it, then run all the way around to get the Heart Piece.

    Faron Woods 1: Once you have the Bomb Bag, destroy the bomb-able wall near the entrance to the path to the Sealed Grounds on the west side of Faron Woods proper.

    Goddess Cube, Eldin Volcano: Once you have the Water Dragon’s Scale, go to the long sand slide on the eastern side of Eldin Volcano, in the far north. Take the left side, and aim for the left platform that has a Dig Spot. Below this is another platform with a Goddess Cube. The chest is in the center of the town of Skyloft. Note: You must swim underwater to reach the area it is in.

    Goddess Cube, Faron Woods: Once you have the Water Dragon’s Scale, gain access to the top of the Great Tree in Faron Woods. Drop off the ledge on the northeast side of the tree. Fall to the platform with the Goddess Cube. Note: This cube can be seen from the viewing platform with the Bird Statue in the north.

    Goddess Cube, Pirate Stronghold: Once you have the Clawshot, open the jaws in the Pirate Stronghold, and go outside. Turn around, and look for a high Clawshot target. This will lead to the Goddess Cube.

    Goddess Cube, Temple Of Time: There is a mine cart and a robot blocking the path that upgrades your map to have multiple waypoints in the area outside the Temple Of Time. The Goddess Cube is east from this point, along the mine cart track. Use the Timeshift Stone above the area to push or ride the mine cart to the edge of the Timeshift Stone’s effect. There is another stone across the gorge. Activate it with the Hook Beetle, then get in the mine cart. Charge a Skyward Strike, and hit the Goddess Cube as the mine cart passes it. The chest is on Beedle’s Island in the northeast of the sky.

    Goddess Cube, Volcano Summit: The cave leading to the Fire Sanctuary entrance has an exit that leads to a waterfall. Use the water to put out the frog statue flames. Run off the cliff by this waterfall and fall down. Maneuver around a pillar to land on the platform with the Goddess Cube.

    Lanayru Desert: Once you have the Clawshot, open the bomb-able wall found in the northeast of Lanayru Desert proper. Proceed ahead to a long path of Clawshot targets and Chuchus. The Heart Piece is in a chest at the end.

    Sandship: Once you have the Clawshot, go through the crow’s nests of the Sandship to gain access to the rear of the ship. Use the Clawshot to reach a Clawshot target that allows you drop down the back side of the ship, where a chest with a Heart Piece can be found.

    Shipyard: Successfully complete the Sandship, then return to the Shipyard. Play the Rickety Coaster mini-game, and complete the Expert course in 65 seconds or less to get a Heart Piece.

    Skyloft 1: Bring ten Gratitude Crystals to Batreaux to get a Heart Piece.

    Skyloft 2: Successfully complete the Fledge’s Workout side quest. Find Fledge in the pumpkin patch on Skyloft, then score 600 points in the Pumpkin Pull mini-game to get a Heart Piece.

    Skyloft 3: Once you have the Clawshot, enter Zelda’s room. You can see the Heart Piece through a crack in Karane’s wall. Climb to the roof of the Knight Academy, and aim the Clawshot under the roof of the chimney. Release and fall into a room above the bath. Climb through the small hole, and drop into Zelda’s room. Open her cupboard to find a Heart Piece.

    Skyloft 4: Purchase the Heart Piece in Beedle’s Shop for 1,600 rupees after getting a wallet large enough to hold the required rupees.

    Skyview Temple: Get the Beetle, and use it to hit a switch above the bottle-like structure to open a gate to a Heart Piece.

    Volcano Summit: Once you have the Mogma Mitts, find the Gossip Stone with a Dig Spot in front of it at the entrance to the Fire Sanctuary. A Heart Piece can be found there.

Restoring health

Sit on the small stools or chairs found in dungeons to begin refilling your hearts after a few seconds.

Entering Zelda’s room

Climb around to the roof over Zelda’s room using the ledge by the upper entrance to the Knight Academy. Use the Clawshot on the target on the top of the chimney’s reverse side to enter the academy. Note: If this is done at night, Gaepora will be taking a bath below where you land. Crawl through the passage to enter Zelda’s room, where you can look at Zelda’s diary by sitting in her chair; get a Gratitude Crystal (at night); get a Heart Piece from the cabinet; and look at the Tingle doll.

Beedle’s trap door

Do not buy anything from Beedle’s Shop, and try to leave. Beedle will open a trap door, and you will fall to the ground below.
