The Suthorn Ruins Dungeon is the initial dungeon you will encounter in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. Being the first dungeon, it is relatively short, but the Suthorn Ruins still features a variety of puzzles and two bosses to conquer. Below is a comprehensive walkthrough for the Suthorn Ruins Dungeon from beginning to end.
How to Reach Suthorn Ruins in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom
Exploring Suthorn Stilled Forest
To access the Suthorn Ruins Dungeon, you must first navigate through the Suthorn Stilled Forest. This Stilled area serves as a prerequisite for every dungeon. You can find the entrance to the Suthorn Stilled Forest in the upper left corner of the Suthorn Forest.
Interact with the glowing yellow circle to create a portal and enter it to begin your adventure through the Suthorn Stilled Forest.
Proceed right, jumping across platforms to reach a cave entrance. Inside the cave, move right across the platforms and step on the white button to unlock the door on the left. Jump back across and enter the door to find a room populated by Still Zols. Eliminate all of them using your own Echoes to pass through the next door and return to the forest.
If you wish, take the platforms on the right to collect a Blue Rupee or explore the southwest platforms for a Purple Rupee. Otherwise, take the northwest route to reach the entrance of the Suthorn Ruins.

Upon entering the dungeon, your immediate task is to activate the fast-travel point. From there, proceed straight into the core of the dungeon.
Your initial challenge involves a massive boulder. Aim at it using ZL and press X to employ Tri’s bind ability. Position it over the large pit and release it so it drops into the void, clearing the path to the next button. Step on the button to unlock the door on the right.
Bind Tri to the next boulder and move it left to uncover a ladder. Before descending, bind Tri to the boulder again, jump to lift it over the pit’s edge, and use it to bridge the gap along the back wall. Ascend the ramp and go through the door on the left. Bind Tri to the buried chest and pull it out to obtain some butter.
Return to the room with the ladder, descend, and navigate along the web vines and ladders to the right. Be sure to defeat a Strandtula while here, as they can provide vines for climbing high ledges! Use a Strandtula to access the chest on the right side and collect the Dungeon Map.
Ascend the ladder on the right side of the cavern and utilize Tables or other Echoes to reach the door on the left. Move left and upward to locate an elevator that will transport you to the second floor.

Follow the left path to enter a room with a single ladder. Climb down to discover another cavern.
In this area, your task is to ignite all the braziers using Ignizol Echoes. The first brazier is just beneath the ladder you climbed, while the second is located up the ladder on the right. Break the boxes to access it and ignite the brazier to unlock the path on the right. Ascend the ladder and activate the waypoint before using Bind to remove the golden shield from the statue’s grasp on the right side of the room.
Proceed through the unlocked door, take a left to discover a chest concealed behind a large wall. Utilize a Strandtula to bypass the wall and retrieve the chest before continuing down the hall to engage in battle with Sword Link. This battle can be challenging, particularly since you begin with only three hearts.
Use your sword to cut through the purple muck blocking your exit and descend the ladder to the very bottom. Bind the giant boulder and pull it into the left pit. Climb back up the ladder and jump across the boulder to reach the chest on the opposite side. Open it to obtain the Heart Pin, then descend the ladder on the right side to return to the first floor.

In the next room, you’ll find an open door to the left, a locked door to the right, and the boss door directly ahead. Activate the waypoint to facilitate fast travel back here later before entering the open door on the left.
This room contains two Deku Babas, one concealed behind the purple muck you previously had to eliminate. Defeat the Deku Babas to unlock the doors and head left. Bind the green statue in the center and ascend the ramp to place it on the high ledge. Then, drop down and to the right onto the button, removing the obstruction to the Purple Rupee within the chest.
Return to the central room and head north to find a Deku Baba on a pedestal behind a grate. Bind it and pull it back to extract it from the ground and expose the next chest containing a Silver Key. Make your way back to the room with the boss door and open the door on the right.
Bind the statue on the right side of the room, placing it on the green tile along the back wall. The statues should align in a square formation, opening the grate and allowing you to climb down the ladder. Utilize the platforms to traverse the room. Remember, you can press R while bound to something to follow it!
Bind the statue in the next room and create a step ladder to position it on the button to the left. Collect the key and teleport back to the boss door to face the Suthorn Ruins Dungeon Boss, the Seismic Talus.
After defeating the Seismic Talus and freeing Tri’s friends, you will have completed your first dungeon in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. You can then proceed to the Gerudo Sanctuary Dungeon to tackle yet another Rift in Hyrule.
