So I finally got around to finishing this quest, and I was pleasantly surprised by all the really awesome additions you have throughout the quest. (I played this on Normal mode btw)
Once again, I had a lot of fun playing this quest and I had fun through almost the entire quest. There's plenty of things to do in the overworld, it's littered with secrets and really cool things to find, and money is never an issue (I never run out or have too much). Difficulty is nicely rebalanced and I didn't find anything too difficult, tedious or just annoying and I had a really nice challenge in most parts of the game. Screen design is really nice and simple, and the usage of Classic is really well done throughout the whole quest. I'm also very happy Level 8 has been fixed up since that was one of my biggest issues with the original quest. Level 8 was actually fun to go through and was nicely balanced this time round. I also loved the Hookshot 2 dungeon you have near the end (the Lunatic Tower or whatever it was called). Had a lot of fun with that kind of dungeon in Hookshot 2, and I had a lot of fun with it here as well.
However, there are still a few minor issues which I brought up in the original which still apply here. Wallmasters can get increasingly annoying as the quest goes on and like in the original quest, the Ancient Ruins is pretty bad with the Wallmasters. If you accidentally run into one in one of the 4 chambers, you get sent to the start of the whole dungeon rather than at the start of the chamber. Kinda sad this didn't get fixed up since Wallmasters appearing instantly when you come out of water in the Water Chamber really got frustrating, especially when you get trapped in the corner of some rooms. The Cube Enigma dungeon is also pretty awful IMO. The block puzzles in there started off fine, but then the amount of puzzles is a bit overboard. I recall seeing like 11 block puzzles on each side, and that did get quite boring fast (and really annoying when they're difficult to solve). I also dunno if the prizes are even worth it for a dungeon like that, since you get some hourglass thing that lets you go back to the starting segment where you can choose between hard and normal, but even then I don't really think there's any point in having that since you have completed the game already. I also dunno if there's more to the 5 rupees on the side where the Goriya talks about unlimited wealth, never really figured it out.
Besides those things though, this was a really great quest to play. I dunno if I'll ever bother to get through Hard mode (maybe for an LP or something, I dunno yet), but I had a lot of fun playing this. So overall, good job on making such a quality quest. This is an easy 5/5 for me, and I look forward to any future quests of yours.

I know this quest is kinda old, but I'm getting back into Zelda Classic rn and trying out some new things- well, things new to me at least! I'm surprised that Legend of Lana seems to be the only quest revolving around a side character/character from Hyrule Warriors! I'm impressed by the mechanics too.
I can't use ZQ for beans, so I'm mostly an ideas guy. Have you ever considered doing another full quest with another character, such as Linkle?

Played to level 2 on stream (it took awhile to find) I really like this, It'sell put together thus far. I will not review stars until i complete it, and It'd be cool if you could come watch sometime.
As i said, really good. I love the refill bombs feature the most, as it prevents backtracking. I hate going back for bombs. Good quest so far!
