0:18 - Jumping off vines gives a 2-3 frame boost
2:21 - Fairy can damage most enemies in the game and makes it possible to walk through some bosses
2:30 - Aqfaq found that the door opens for 1 frame when the dragon is killed. This skips the spider boss and saves about 13 seconds.
2:50 - Killing the bee gives an ocarina which summons a phoenix
3:17 - This walk-through-a-boss technique enabled by fairy was found by Aqfaq
3:19 - It's time to buy the best weapon in the game
3:25 - I can't go up the first stairs because it's booby trapped
3:30 - The second fairy would add only 31 frames to time, but I didn't find use for it
3:46 - Large orb would add 117 frames but the benefit is much smaller
6:40 - Large orb would add 41 frames but the benefit is much smaller
7:58 - This is the spider that I should have fought at the end of 2nd level, but used a glitch to escape it. Well, I didn't want to fight it here either
8:30 - Skipping spider and worm colors the big golem pink
8:35 - The room above final boss is randomized by the frame you enter it. I got the second fastest enemy which was 9 frames slower than the fastest enemy 29 wait-frames further ahead

Thanks to Aqfaq for sharing his cancelled WIP (first 2 minutes), for finding the glitches and for monitoring the progress!
FractalFusion: Perhaps it's gameplay limitation, but whatever it is, the run doesn't look well-executed, and is slow. I'm rejecting the run.
FractalFusion: I remember this submission being borderline for game choice when first judging it. Now that it satisfies the criteria for Vault, I will accept this submission for Vault publication.
