Heart piece from Maple
edit
- Requirements: nothing, but Pegasus Seeds and Maple's Ring are helpful
- Earliest availability: chapter 3, anywhere after Link gets Pegasus seeds.
Maple appears after the next screen transition every time Link defeats 30 enemies (every 15 enemies, if he wears Maple's Ring). Occasionally, Maple will drop a heart piece if you hit her. She will prioritize it first, so use Pegasus seeds to get there faster than her. The heart piece appearance is completely random, so it may take a while to get.
