Hyrule Castle

To make your way past the guards, you will first have to jump off the top of the gate arch. Now follow the path until you see 2 guards on the road. You will now have to detour around them and follow the dirt path until you see a spot on the wall that looks different then the rest. Climb the wall that looks like it has bricks and jump off into the moat. Make your way to the other side and climb a hill that allow you to exit the moat. Now continue on until you see a guy sleeping near 2 crates. Use the chicken that hatched from the egg to wake him up and talk to him. He will then ZOOM off allowing you to push the crates over the edge, one on top of the other so that you can reach the small hole in the side of the wall. Only enter during the day, or else there is no way to get past the guards. Now make your way through the castle by hiding from the guards and continuing only when their backs are turned. After much sneaking around you will end up in the Courtyard where Zelda is. After much talking (I don't mean just a little chit-chat either) she will give you a letter. On your way out you will meet Impa which will teach you your first song, Zelda's Lullaby and escort you out of the castle. Now head towards Lon-Lon Ranch.
