Horned Statue: Difference between revisions

When Link talks to the statue, it will unlock a side quest called [[The Statue's Bargain]]. The Horned Statue mentioned that its life-for-money bargains did not sit well with the Goddess [[Hylia]], so he was trapped inside of this statue a long time ago. The statue is neglected in town, with the villagers not even taking the time to clean it off from bird droppings. Despite this, the Horned Statue has waited patiently for somebody like Link to come around so that he can strike a bargain.{{Ref|''No, eh? Fa ha ha... If you say so. Just know that I'm willing to strike a bargain with anyone who can hear my voice. A dealer in life and power... That was me, once. Alas, my life-for-money bargains didn't sit well with the Goddess Hylia. She trapped me in this stone statue long, long ago. The villagers here call me the Horned Statue and don't even bother to wipe away the bird droppings. One would think years upon years of such treatment would have made me mend my ways... One would think wrongly. I have only been biding my time for the moment someone who can hear me appears. Someone such as you. But I've said enough. Now then, shall we strike a bargain? Then stay that way. No further action on your part is required.'' - '''[[Horned Statue]]'''}}

The Horned Statue will take one of your essences away.{{Ref|''Fa ha ha... My touch is as subtle as ever... Note how I took that essence from you without leaving a mark.'' - '''[[Horned Statue]]'''}} If you speak to the Horned Statue again you can ask for the essence back.{{Ref|''What's wrong, then? Have your prayers gone unanswered?'' - '''[[Horned Statue]]'''}} The statue will allow you to choose either a Heart Container or Stamina Vessel.{{Ref|''Fa ha ha... Did you think I'd deceived you? Perish the thought. I hope that ours will be a long and profitable relationship. So which will it be? As I may have mentioned once or twice, I'm a dealer in life and power. I can provide a valuable service to you. I take Heart Containers or Stamina Vessels from you...and then, for a price, return whichever of the two you like.'' - '''[[Horned Statue]]'''}}

The first time Link exchanges for a different essence, there will be no cost. Once Link has completed the first exchange, this will complete The Statue's Bargain side quest.{{Ref|''You look skeptical. Not to worry. Money and life are all as one to me. If you're ready to begin, then first you mess sell me either type of essence for 100 rupees. If you want to buy an essence back, the price rises to 120 rupees. Before you cry foul, know that you may choose which one I return to you: a Heart Container or a Stamina Vessel. I'm eager to help tamper with your essence anytime you want to return and pray here.'' - '''[[Horned Statue]]'''}}
