Zelda: Exploring the Eternal Forest Route and Pedestal Locations 2024

You will face a new challenge in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom once you have completed the “Lands of the Goddesses” quest and defeated the dungeons in Lanayru Temple, Eldin Temple, and Faron Temple. Null, a character, will attack Zelda and lead her to the Eternal Forest in order to stop an Echo version of herself. The Eternal Forest is a mysterious, misty place, but don’t worry—it’s not too hard to navigate through it. I’ll describe where the Eternal Forest is and where each of the six pedestals you need to activate is located in this tutorial.

Tracking Down the Eternal Forest Path

North of Hyrule Town, the Eternal Forest is tucked in between Eldin Volcano and Holy Mount Lanayru’s northernmost points. You have to go northwest of the Hyrule Castle dungeon area to the foothills that lead up to Mount Hebra in order to reach there. To play the Acorn Gathering minigame, look for a breach in the trees almost exactly to the west of the Northern Sanctum.

There should be a Waypoint close to the Eternal Forest entrance when you get closer. As soon as you enter, the music changes, the mist rolls in, turning the woodland into a maze, and your World Map gets obscured.

Once Eldin, Lanayru, and Faron have given you all three of the Goddess’ Sanctions, you can successfully traverse the Eternal Forest by doing the following:

General Wright is here to assist you if you have progressed far enough in the main mission. If not, all you’ll see in the clearing is an odd stone glyph and an empty pedestal.

Pedestal locations in the Eternal Forest

After navigating the Eternal Forest, you will come across a sizable stone tablet next to an unoccupied pedestal. Six slots on this tablet are empty. To uncover the entrance to the Ancient Ruins, you need to activate six pedestal points placed around the Eternal Forest.

You must lay an Ancient Orb on top of a pedestal in order to activate it. You may find instructions on how to operate the Ancient Orb Echo next to the stone tablet. To activate this Echo and light up its position on the tablet, summon it onto each pedestal.

The tablet’s slot pyramid and the six pedestal locations line up. Where to find each of them is as follows:

1. First Pedestal: Located directly opposite the large stone tablet.
2. Second Pedestal: Found on a ledge in the center-right part of the forest.
3. Third Pedestal: Hidden in a corner behind some grass in the bottom-right area of the second pedestal.
4. Fourth Pedestal: Next to a tree at the bottom center of the forest.
5. Fifth Pedestal: On a high ledge in the bottom-left area of the forest.
6. Sixth Pedestal: Behind a Deku Baba plant in the left-center part of the forest.

Although you can gather these pedestals in any sequence, turning each one on clockwise is the easiest way to do it. After activating all six pedestals, head back to the tablet being cautious of any monsters encountered during your exploration.

Reaching the end of this section of the game is an enjoyable trek through a well-known area that is similar to the Lost Woods in earlier Zelda games. Zelda can explore the Ancient Ruins, traverse the recently unveiled path, encounter a familiar face, and battle the Echo Zelda boss once all six pedestals have been activated.

In summary

One of the most fascinating aspects of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is navigating the Eternal Forest and turning on the pedestals. Players may quickly navigate the misty forests and open the door to new adventures by using this guidance. Have fun exploring this magical woodland, and best of luck as you face the difficulties that lie ahead!
