Missing Loftwing

Near the beginning of the game, when Link discovers his Loftwing has gone missing, speak to Pipit who’s near the stairway on the 1st floor and he’ll go searching for clues.

Visitor at Night

Following the events of the Wing Ceremony, a mysterious figure will appear before Link during the night. Follow it upstairs and outside into Skyloft.

Leaving Skyloft

The next door, Link will be ready to leave Skyloft. Before departing, chat to Fledge outside your room to receive the Adventure Pouch, for storing items and shields.

The Light Tower

After finishing the first three dungeons and sealing away the Imprisoned, you’ll need to visit Headmaster Gaepora in his room on the 2nd floor to learn a clue for activating the Skyloft Light Tower.

Tracking Levias
