The Old Man appears on several occasions, as Link progresses through the Great Plateau. After he uncovers the [[Great Plateau Tower]], he flies down on a [[Paraglider]] to talk about the towers and [[Calamity Ganon]].{{Ref|''My, my... It would seem we have quite the enigma here. This tower and others just like it have erupted across the land, one after another. It is almost as though...a long-dormant power has awoken quite suddenly.'' - '''Old Man'''}}{{Ref|''I assume you caught sight of that atrocity enshrouding the castle. That...is Calamity. One hundred years ago, that vile entity brought the kingdom of Hyrule to ruin. It appeared suddenly and destroyed everything in its path. So many innocent lives were lost in its wake. For a century, the very symbol of our kingdom, Hyrule Castle, has managed to contain that evil. But just barely.

The Old Man will task Link with finding the treasure from inside the [[Shrine of Trials|Shrine]] that has appeared. In exchange, he will give Link the [[Paraglider]], allowing Link to safely leave the [[Great Plataea]].{{Ref|''Here, on this isolated plateau, we are surrounded on all sides by steep cliffs, with no way down. If you were to try to jump off, well... no death could be more certain. Or more foolish. Of course, if you had a paraglider like mine, that would be quite another story.'' - '''Old Man'''}}{{Ref|''Do you see that structure there? The one shining with a strange light? It began glowing at the exact moment those towers rose up from the ground. I would think such a place might house some sort of treasure, wouldn't you? Treasure for the paraglider. A fair exchange, I believe.'' - '''Old Man'''}}  This triggers the main quest, titled [[The Isolated Plateau]].
