Walkthrough
  1. 1
    After obtaining the Sacred Bell of Resolve, return to the entrance of Harmony Temple. Adjust switch blocks (left lowered, right raised) and exit south.
  2. 2
    Talk to Arabella, then climb south down the ladder. Enter the Mountaineer's Hut, shoot the target to reveal a ladder, and climb down to collect [TOKEN31].
  3. 3
    Leave the Mountaineer's Hut, climb down the ladder, bomb the rock, and shoot the cactus. Enter the cave on the right. Upon exiting, shoot the cactus to the left, walk behind the wall to collect [TOKEN32].
  4. 4
    Enter the cave on the far right to head south down the mountain. Climb down ladders and enter the cave in the south-east.
  5. 5
    Inside this cave, shoot the target, push the right block left. Go to the north-west corner and shoot the pot below. Shoot the target again, push the left block left, and collect [TOKEN33].
  6. 6
    Exit the cave, climb the first two sets of stairs back up the mountain, turn right, cut bushes, and bomb the rock to reveal a ladder. Climb down into Undertone Grotto. Collect [TOKEN34] (switch blocks should be set down).
  7. 7
    Head south to the Tonal Plains past Interlude Bridge. Bomb the rock east of the Wishing Pond to reveal a ladder and climb down.
  8. 8
    Smash the bottom right pot to reveal a button. Press it, then bomb the cracked block. Press the button again, push the top block left, and shoot the target to drain the Wishing Pond. Climb to the surface and collect [TOKEN35] from the pond's bottom.
  9. 9
    Head west back to Melody Village. On the far west side, shoot the cacti to collect [TOKEN36].
  10. 10
    Enter Arabella's house to trigger her return. Talk to her again for [CONVO5].
  11. 11
    Enter the Treasure Shop and talk to the cap'n repeatedly to receive a Cat Bell, an extra heart, and Ballet Shoes.
  12. 12
    Place a bomb behind the sign right of the vacant house, walk left into a hidden room, and collect [TOKEN37].
  13. 13
    Head to Prelude Beach south of Melody Village. Shoot cacti right of the stairs to reach a cave entrance. Inside, bomb the cracked block, stand where it was, and shoot the pot right to trigger explosions. Push the block right and climb the ladder to collect [TOKEN38].
  14. 14
    Return to the beach. One step left from the stairs, move down to enter a hidden cave. Cut down the bush and collect [TOKEN39].
  15. 15
    Head west along the beach to Bass Cove Fishing Spot. Bomb the end of the pier, walk across the water, and exit west to find Debug Island. Read the sign's back for [CODE4] and [CODE5].
  16. 16
    Head east along the beach and shoot the cactus. To open the chest on the far east (requires full health), use the Ballet Shoes to turn on the spot using the crank, allowing you to shoot the blocking cacti without damage. Collect [TOKEN40].

    Return to the Treasure Shop and talk to the cap'n repeatedly to be rewarded with an extra heart and information about the final treasure.
