Collections and Upgrades

Collections

You have three major collections to undertake in Twilight Princess: Poe’s Souls, insects, and Pieces of Heart.

Poe’s Souls

Poe’s Souls can be turned in to Jovani in Castle Town. His house is on the western side of town, just north of Telma’s Bar; you’ll know you’re at the right one when you see all the cats outside mewling. Morph into a wolf and crawl through the hole nearby to enter the building and speak to Jovani. He tells you that his soul has been stolen and separated into parts.

Poe’s Souls are the flying lanterns that you see in the game world; they only appear at night in the overworld, but which appear at all hours in dungeons and caves. To attack them, morph into wolf form, use your senses to see their true form, and attack them, then use your Ending Blow to rip the Poe’s Soul out of their chest.

When you find 20 Poe’s Souls, you can return them to Jovani, who’ll give you an empty Bottle. That’s reward enough for most people. If you manage to find all 60 Poe’s Souls (which will take you as far as the Cave of Ordeals), you’ll reportedly be able to speak to his cat for an infinite amount of 200 Rupee pieces, but by the time you manage to find all 60 Poe’s Souls, you likely will have moved beyond the point where you actually have anything to buy.

20 Poe’s Souls are easy enough to find in your normal adventuring through dungeons. We’re not going to make an entire list of the locations here; if you’re interested in finding all 60 (which is only necessary if you’re a Zelda completionist), we’ll refer you to gamefaqs.com, where there is undoubtedly an FAQ in the works for their location.

Insects

There’s a woman named Agitha in Castle Town who has a rather creepy obsession with insects. She wants you to track down 12 pairs of insects and return them to her, for her odd insect ball that she’s throwing.

Insects are available at all hours of day and night, although they glow white, so they’re easier to spot at night. To collect them, get close and just pick them up! Many of them will be out of easy reach, though, so you’ll need to use your boomerang or clawshot to grab them and bring them back to you. All insects give off a distinct ringing sound when you’re in their location, so keep an ear out for that.

When you return one insect to Agitha, she’ll reward you with a wallet that can carry 600 Rupees, instead of the 300-Rupee wallet you start out with. Further insect turn-ins will net you 50 Rupees per insect, but if you turn in the second insect of a pair (they always come in male and female varieties), you’ll net 100 Rupees instead, for a total of 150 Rupees per pair. Since there are 12 pairs, that’s some nice coin you’ll be getting. Again, though, there’s not much to spend your money on in Twilight Princess, outside of the two Pieces of Heart that cost 1,000 Rupees apiece, so you don’t need to really go out of your way to find these guys. If you net all 24 of them, you’ll get a wallet capable of containing 1,000 Rupees, which is far in excess of what you’ll actually need.

Again, there already is an FAQ for these insects up over at gamefaqs.com, so we’ll refer you to that site if you actually want to collect all of them. It’s not necessary to do so, especially since the game doesn’t really offer any rewards for 100% completion or anything like that.
