Dragon Roost Island

Dragon Roost Island is in the northeast of the Great Sea in The Wind Waker, and is home to the Rito tribe, and the Spirit of the Sky, Valoo. It is located in quadrant F2. The island can be seen from a great distance, as it consists mainly of a huge mountain which, according to some, is Death Mountain. There are many explosive fruits scattered across the island, and many Kargorocs have made it their home, so be on the lookout.

The first true dungeon, Dragon Roost Cavern, is also situated on this island and after beating it you'll get the first of the three Pearls, Din's Pearl.

Wind Shrine
Dragon Roost Island is home to the Wind Shrine, which can be found on the eastern side of the island. This shrine has two stones which honor the Wind Gods, Cyclos and Zephos. Cyclos's stone is broken, but the stone honoring Zephos is intact. Get out the The Wind Waker while facing it to learn Wind's Requiem, a song that gives Link control over the direction of the wind. This song is needed to reach the Forest Haven after getting Din's Pearl.

Dragon Roost Pond
This pond is located in between the Rito Hall and Dragon Roost Cavern. When Link first encounters it, it has completely dried up. Link must first help Medli fly across the pond, at which point she will give Link an Empty Bottle. Using the bottle, Link must bring water up to the dried up bomb plants and water them. Now the plants can be picked up and detonated. Link should throw the bomb plants near the giant boulder in the middle of the lakebed and blow it up. At this point, water will flow out of the blocked spring and fill the lakebed. Then Link can swim to the other side and proceed to the lava pit. Using more bomb plants, throw them on the statues so that they fall and make a route across. Now Link can enter the dungeon.
