2020 Comment: Four and a bit years after the previous update, I posted the above image in the forum thread where I first ran this LP. Two days later I continued with the following:
!
Uhh...
Where were we? Oh yeah...

Right!
To-Do:
-Get through the door into the last room of Kanalet Castle.
Let's do this!
Yeah!
Welcome back to Let's Play Link's Awakening! It's been a while, hasn't it? When we left off Link had infiltrated Kanalet Castle, former home of the displaced aristocrat Richard, seeking to assassinate his former servants and reclaim the golden leaves within. Who knew Link was such a reactionary? He'd been stumped by a locked door at the heart of the castle, but no more! 2020 comment: Just for clarity, figuring out this door was not the reason for the four year gap in updates.
The (I presume) new master of the castle goes down easily. What's that he's dropped?
You can see how many you have on the Sub-Screen.
One fifth of the treasure is ours! Now we just have to loot and murder our way out of this place!
I check my sub-screen. As promised, there's a golden leaf on there. I make my way back to the room with the suspicious wall carvings.
They can't be pushed, and they can't be pulled. What other tools do I have?
Success! And another leaf!
I take out the other guy too, but he has nothing. I head back towards the entrance, dispatching all witnesses.
Near the exit I find another leaf. That's three! On the outskirts of the castle I see a suspicious-looking crow. A conspirator? Only one way to be sure:
I don't think it's coming back. If it were innocent, it would've stayed to face justice.
I head up a screen and then back down. The crow has returned.
This time I get it, and with it the golden leaf. Only one to go!
I head around the outskirts of the castle, finding a suspicious figure on the opposite side. He looks like he could be part of the underground movement that ousted Richard.
He's a bit trickier than the others were, though.
Before long I've lost all my hearts. Fortunately, I had Crazy Tracey's potion to keep me alive.
Unfortunately, I quickly lose them all again. Aww.
Link respawns nearby and heads back for a rematch.
This time the enemy goes down like a chump. At last, I've got the final golden leaf!
Golden Leaf! Now go and see Richard about that key...
There they all are in my inventory.
I head back to Richard, stopping along the way to try the telephone booth:
'BRRING! BRRING! Ulrira here! ... Shovel... Did you purchase a shovel? You may find something if you dig here and there! Bye! CLICK'
I did purchase a shovel, but thanks for asking!
Ahh! Tres Bien! I see you have recovered all of the leaves! Now, move this box and you will find your reward!
Richard, as usual, can't do anything himself.
Link takes care of it.
Underground is a path with a secret seashell. That makes eleven, which means if I've got it right there'll be another reward for me at the seashell mansion.
The second room of the cave has another of those crawling skull enemies. I can't resist attempting to take it out, and I lose a few hearts for my troubles. Taking the exit leads me to Pothole Field. I've been meaning to explore here!
Here's Pothole Field after I explored it. Yes, I missed a bit. I didn't notice until I was putting this image together. I'll add it to the to-do list.
you can open the gate in Ukuku Prairie!
The last area of the field has this owl statue, and beneath the soil, the slime key.
I head back out. Frankly, I'm not sure being owed a debt by Richard is worth much.
I put the slime key in the slime keyhole, the world shakes, and a path opens. Which I can't reach from here.
A short walk/jump later, and I'm in Level 3-- Key Cavern. Let's leave it there for today!
Next time:
Level 3-- Key Cavern
