The Minish Cap Story: Difference between revisions

When Link enters, he finds the inside of the Temple completely frozen. Link finds the [[Big Key]] very early on in the dungeon; he enters the boss room to find a [[Big Octo (The Minish Cap)|Big Octorok]] the guardian of the Temple, frozen inside a block of ice, along with the Water Element. Link then traverses the entire dungeon in order to open the boss room to sunlight and melt the ice. After melting the ice, the Big Octorok attacks Link, but Link successfully defeats it and obtains the Water Element.  

Link is directed by several of the Wind Tribe members to the top of the Tower of Winds, which takes Link to the Palace of Winds. He traverses the Palace to find the Wind Element, which had been taken by the [[Gyorg Pair]], a group of two manta ray-like flying monsters. Link defeats the two Gyorgs in a high-altitude battle and obtains the elusive Wind Element. Link then makes his way back to Hyrule Castle, where he fuses the Wind Element with the White Sword. After fusing all four Elements, the White Sword becomes known as the [[Four Sword]]. The power of the Four Sword allows Link to access a hidden room with a large stained-glass window, where it is revealed that Princess Zelda had the Light Force within her all this time. Link exits the Sanctuary to find that Vaati had impersonated the king. Vaati then knocks Link unconscious. Link finds himself outside the castle. He enters again, only to find that the castle had been completely transformed into a treacherous dungeon by Vaati. Vaati tells Link that at the end of three tolls of a bell, he would complete his extraction of the Light Force from Zelda's body, rendering her lifeless and Vaati unstoppable. Link successfully reaches Vaati with just one toll remaining; Vaati uses the power he had drained in that time to transform himself into powerful, demonic forms. With the power of the Four Sword, Link weakens Vaati and his powers; Zelda awakens and uses the wishing cap that Vaati stole to seal Vaati away, restore Hyrule, and destroy the cap. With Vaati's power gone, Ezlo is transformed into his original form. With the time that the Minish could stay in the human world almost up, Ezlo gives Link a green cap similar to Ezlo's hat form. After this last gesture of friendship, the Minish disappear into their own world, to return one hundred years later.
