In this entry, we go all the way up to the top of the cliffs to resurrect the birds. We still have a ways to go...
You'll eventually roll down a steep slope. Keep holding Left on the Control Pad and you'll get to the next area. You'll come across a chest with a S.Bulb as well as another crater with a vine in it. This time, keep holding right.
When you drop down, go to the left and keep going. Enter the cave you'll find, and you'll come across miniature Quakers popping out of holes in the ground. They go down very easily with the Roc Spear and the dash attack. Use a Power Ring if you have to, and get some distance before you strike. Don't forget the Magirock (#21) in the upper-left hand corner!
Once you beat all the mini-Quakers, go up the stairs in the upper-right corner of the room. Follow the path and take down all the Quakers, and enter the door in the lower-left. Go up the mountain from there, and take down all the birds that swarm you. Interact with the sparkle in the Periton's nest nearby, and you'll get the Sharp Claws, which allow you to climb the walls that look like they have craters in them. Just walk into them and you'll climb them with the Control Pad. If you need to jump off at any point, just press B. Climb up from here to find a treasure chest containing an M.Bulb. If you get hit by an enemy while climbing, you'll get knocked down.
From there, go down from where you entered, and head to the right. You'll be at the center of the mountain, and you'll be able to climb walls that you weren't able to before. Go all the way to the right until you see a climbable wall, then go into the nearby door and follow the path. Go down the stairs, then follow the path again. When you're back outside, go to the left first and climb up the wall to find a Magirock (#22) and a chest containing 87 Gems. Watch out for the Borfs!
Climb down and head to the right. Climb down the vine, then hold Right on the Control Pad to get through the slope part to land right next to Magirock #23. From there, fight off the enemies as you head left first. This leads to a small cave with a chest containing a Life Potion. Be sure to use it now. From there, you want to go all the way to the right and climb up the walls. This leads to a boss battle against the Dark Twins...well, one of them, anyway.
To beat the boss, block the talons that the green bird shoots at you as it flies around. When it divebombs, move out of the way, then hit it with your staff. It will also summon a brown twin that will try to attack you with poop after it takes enough damage, hence the name "Dark Twins". If you use a PyroRing, however, you won't have to deal with this boss for very long.
When you beat the Dark Twins, a voice will tell you that the birds that were changed into monsters will now regain their forms, yet it is still too early for the world to be resurrected. You will have to lead the growth of living things before you can do that.
You'll then see a cutscene of an egg cracking, followed by a Mode 7 eagle flying into the sky. The birds will then return. You'll then be back in Sanctuar, only now there will be birds and water. Be sure to talk to the birds. You'll learn that the birds sense the change of season by wind, so they can fly south for the winter. Unfortunately, the signal to fly from Windvale hasn't come yet. You'll also learn to climb up the wall to meet the Kingbird. We'll be doing that next time...
