Hello brave survivalists...you've picked a good day to venture out and try to stop the outbreak.
When Mio and Kurt approach the mailbox outside of Wiffle-Waffle, they will receive a note from the mailbox. The writing on the bottom is smudged, but it will state the following:
Oktorock: a stone projectile from the mouth of the Octorok. These stones must be caught from the mouths of these creatures and may be used to launch at incoming zombies. Enhanced with warding abilities, these stones will stop zombies in their path and they will continue to walk in place.
May also be used to strike harpies from mid-air.
The Octorok, as they might suspect, is an octopus-like creature that can be found rarely in the outskirts/wilderness beyond the city limits, but they will also have an easier time heading down to Peach Beach and heading straight into the ocean! Hiding out in small tide pools and chasms a short distance from the shore, the Octoroks will appear in small clusters and huddle together.
However, these creatures won't be very happy that someone's trespassing and they will immediately attack. Aiming at both Kurt and Mio, they will launch projectiles such as rocks, fruit, and even small bombs at them to try and scare them away!
The two of them will have to work together to wrangle these creatures, dodge the projectiles and catch the rocks thrown at them to be used against zombies. These rocks will glow a soft gold color that will be seen by those who are uninfected, making it easier to identify them. The Octoroks can be fought by generating a shield and striking them with their own objects; however, they may wish to hold off on that until they collect a sizable amount of rocks.
As they collect the rocks and begin to head back to the shore, they will feel themselves weighing down and sinking into the water as they go. The rocks themselves aren't particularly heavy but they seem to have a gravitational field that makes it hard for those holding them to leave the ocean. They will have to struggle against the waves and the weight (or find another way) to get back to the sands of Peach Beach.
