Someone else is already renting the Sand Rod.
Thank you for being such a great customer!


He rented it when I was in the village seeing if that was a good place to set up my shop.
No


He was in such a rush that I didn’t get his name. Said he had important business somewhere.
No (or) Forget it


Anyway, I’ve got only one of each item, so you’ll have to wait for that item to come home to roost.
Make sure you take good care of my hammer, all right?
See you next time!


Eh, you got done in, huh? That’s all right. Happens to the best of us.  
You’re already renting the hammer, buddy.


You’re going out adventuring again, though, right? Sure you are. So… be sure to rent items before you go!
Hold on. You already have the hammer, don’t you?  


Welcome, Mr. Great Hero!
But if you really like it, you can buy it too.  


I have some big news for you. You may know me as the rental guy. But now I’m in the sales biz too!
And right now, if you act fast, I’ll give you the deal of a lifetime. Half off. Yeah, no foolin’. But just this once!


Great, right?
Just for you it’s 400 Rupees.


Starting today, you can buy my items too-and at really good prices!
Buy


If you act now, your first purchase is HALF-price.
No


Only once per customer though…
Someone else is already renting the Sand Rod.


Just to give you a taste of sweet, delicious ownership!
He rented it when I was in the village seeing if that was a good place to set up my shop.


Hey, hold up, Mr. Big-Deal Hero!
He was in such a rush that I didn’t get his name. Said he had important business somewhere.  


I’ve got more big news for you. Top secret. Kind of thing only ol’ Ravio knows.  
Anyway, I’ve got only one of each item, so you’ll have to wait for that item to come home to roost.


Want to hear it?
Oh, Mr. Hero! One of my other customers finally returned his rental item. And here it is!


Don’t know why I’m asking. Just going to keep talking anyway. It’s a little something I like to call…
The Sand Rod!


Quick Equip!
Wondering what it does? Well, you’d better snatch it up quickly then. Before someone else gets it first!


You know, for swapping items out on the fly?
You interested in the Sand Rod?


Press your equipped items to use Quick Equip. Easy enough to do, even while you’re running around.  
The rental price is 50 Rupees.
But I’ll tell you what-I’ll give you half off if you buy it. Just this once! Let’s see… That’d be 400 Rupees.  


Of course, you can always take your sweet time thinking about each and every item you want to use.
Rent


In that case, it’s better to just keep using the Items button.
Buy


Here endeth the lesson! So take Quick Equip for a spin sometime.
So you’re going to buy the Sand Rod?


Hey, it’s Mr. Hero! Welcome!
You buy it, done deal. No returns. You sure you want that?


So you been using that Quick Equip technique I told you about a ways back?
Buy


Yep
Thank you for being such a great customer!


Well, keep it up. I actually got another Quick Equip tip for you.
No
Nope


Well, then maybe this tip will hook you on the whole Quick Equip thing.
Forget it


See the slider on the item-selection screen?
Make sure you take good care of my Sand Rod, all right?


You guessed it-you can sliiiide the slider left and right. Mind taking a look at the lower screen?
You’re already renting the Sand Rod.


See how the size of the blue frame is changing? That shows how many items you have ready for Quick Equip.
Hold on. You already have the Sand Rod, don’t you?  


For example, let’s say you want only the items you use the most to show up in Quick Equip.  
But if you really like it, you can buy it too.  


In that case, set the slider to the far right to highlight just four items, and then put your fave four there!
And right now, if you act fast, I’ll give you the deal of a lifetime. Half off. Yeah, no foolin’. But just this once!


But if you want to have more than four items in Quick Equip, just move the slider toward the left.
Just for you it’s 400 Rupees.  
Be sure to try it out. See what works best for you!


All right. That’s all the information I’ve got for ya today!
Buy


Did that all make sense?
No
See you next time!


Yep
Eh, you got done in, huh? That’s all right. Happens to the best of us.


Good. It’s tricky stuff, but it could make all the difference out there. So don’t forget to give the slider a try.
You’re going out adventuring again, though, right? Sure you are. So… be sure to rent items before you go!


Nope
Welcome, Mr. Great Hero!


No worries-it’s a chunk of info. Let’s take it from the top.  
I have some big news for you. You may know me as the rental guy. But now I’m in the sales biz too!


Great, right?


Starting today, you can buy my items too-and at really good prices!


Lakeside Item Seller:
If you act now, your first purchase is HALF-price.


What? If you’re not buying, not sure I have much else to say, guy.
Only once per customer though…


Huh-you again?
Just to give you a taste of sweet, delicious ownership!


That sporty fellow out there, that weird creature in the cave! Not sure I’m cut out for this line of work.
Hey, hold up, Mr. Big-Deal Hero!


That thing’s 50 Rupees. Want it?
I’ve got more big news for you. Top secret. Kind of thing only ol’ Ravio knows.  


Buy
Want to hear it?


You got a Scoot Fruit! Use it if you get lost in a dungeon.
Don’t know why I’m asking. Just going to keep talking anyway. It’s a little something I like to call…


Sorry – only one per customer.
Quick Equip!


Don’t buy
You know, for swapping items out on the fly?


C’mon. Buy somethin’?
Press your equipped items to use Quick Equip. Easy enough to do, even while you’re running around.  


That thing’s 30 Rupees. Want it?
Of course, you can always take your sweet time thinking about each and every item you want to use.  


Buy
In that case, it’s better to just keep using the Items button.


You got a Foul Fruit! Try using it if you get surrounded by monsters.  
Here endeth the lesson! So take Quick Equip for a spin sometime.  


Sorry – only one per customer.  
Hey, it’s Mr. Hero! Welcome!


        Don’t buy
So you been using that Quick Equip technique I told you about a ways back?


C’mon. Buy somethin’?
Yep


That’s 50 Rupees. Want it or not?
Well, keep it up. I actually got another Quick Equip tip for you.
Nope


Buy
Well, then maybe this tip will hook you on the whole Quick Equip thing.


You got the shield! Press and hold (R button) to raise it.
See the slider on the item-selection screen?


Thanks.  
You guessed it-you can sliiiide the slider left and right. Mind taking a look at the lower screen?


Carryin’ two might be too much.  
See how the size of the blue frame is changing? That shows how many items you have ready for Quick Equip.  


Don’t buy
For example, let’s say you want only the items you use the most to show up in Quick Equip.


C’mon. Buy somethin’?
In that case, set the slider to the far right to highlight just four items, and then put your fave four there!


C’mon. Buy something’, at least.  
But if you want to have more than four items in Quick Equip, just move the slider toward the left.
Be sure to try it out. See what works best for you!


All right. That’s all the information I’ve got for ya today!


Papa:
Did that all make sense?


Hey there. Uh, did your master give you permission to play around with swords, Link?
Yep


Wait… I bet you heard that the old man over there is calling for people with swords to come talk to him.  
Good. It’s tricky stuff, but it could make all the difference out there. So don’t forget to give the slider a try.  


Did you? Uh, no? Well, he is. He’s talking about how fun something called StreetPass is.
Nope


When I took my daughter there to play, he said only people with swords can get in on the action.  
No worries-it’s a chunk of info. Let’s take it from the top.  


I don’t know what this StreetPass thing is all about. But it sounds like a crazy-good time!


That ol’ Gramps in our village keeps talking about StreetPass. It must be fun. He gets so excited about it!


All right then…but with that quake that’s shaken everything up, is it safe to be outside?
Lakeside Item Seller:


I bet you’ve heard what Gramps is saying about StreetPass, huh? If only I had a sword so I could play too.
What? If you’re not buying, not sure I have much else to say, guy.  


Monsters are roaming around outside the village? If things get any worse, how will I protect my daughter?
Huh-you again?


I’ll have to get your master to make me a sword.  
That sporty fellow out there, that weird creature in the cave! Not sure I’m cut out for this line of work.  


That thing’s 50 Rupees. Want it?


Milk Bar Owner:
Buy


Welcome! How about a glass of cold milk fresh from Lon Lon Ranch?
You got a Scoot Fruit! Use it if you get lost in a dungeon.


It’s 20 Rupees a glass. Fancy a drink?
Sorry – only one per customer.  


Please
Don’t buy


Oh, sorry. You have to get yourself a bottle first.
C’mon. Buy somethin’?
I think I saw one for sale somewhere in the village, though. Come back once you have one, OK?


Ice-cold milk… Deelish, right?
That thing’s 30 Rupees. Want it?


Thanks for your business!
Buy


No
You got a Foul Fruit! Try using it if you get surrounded by monsters.


A shame. Tasty stuff. Well, let me know if you change your mind.  
Sorry – only one per customer.  


Hold on. You don’t have an empty bottle. Sorry, but I can’t sell you any milk.
        Don’t buy


Ask me again once you have an empty bottle, OK?
C’mon. Buy somethin’?


Everyone in the village is talking about the castle, you know.
That’s 50 Rupees. Want it or not?
And how the elder left his house for the first time in forever! Who knew Sahasrahla could walk so far!


Strange days, people are saying. And they’re probably about to get even stranger!
Buy


Welcome! We just got some fresh milk, already chilled!
You got the shield! Press and hold (R button) to raise it.


Welcome! Care for an icy-cold glass of-! Whuh? You heard about premium milk?
Thanks.


How’d you find out about the good stuff? I see… A message in a bottle.  
Carryin’ two might be too much.  


And from someone stranded up on the mountain? Could only be one guy. He’s a tricky customer.
Don’t buy


Sorry to ask, but could you take this premium milk to him? I bet it would help him heal up in no time.
C’mon. Buy somethin’?
He’s a regular at my establishment who loves exploring the mountain.
Last time he was in here, I think he said his next expedition would take him east of the Tower of Hera.


I can’t afford to lose his business. Get that to him, OK? I’m really counting on you, friend.  
C’mon. Buy something’, at least.  


That customer of mine who likes going up the mountain… I can’t believe how far he’s pushing himself.


I wonder if he’ll actually make it past the Tower of Hera…
Papa:


Best of luck to you getting that premium milk to him.
Hey there. Uh, did your master give you permission to play around with swords, Link?


Before you go, remember that I’ve always got a glass of the cold stuff ready for you.  
Wait… I bet you heard that the old man over there is calling for people with swords to come talk to him.  


You delivered it safe and sound? Thanks a bunch. I don’t know how I can ever repay you…
Did you? Uh, no? Well, he is. He’s talking about how fun something called StreetPass is.


How about this? From now on, you only need to pay half price for milk. You’re my favorite customer now!
When I took my daughter there to play, he said only people with swords can get in on the action.  


Welcome, young sir! Care for a glass of milk? Special deal, only 10 Rupees.
I don’t know what this StreetPass thing is all about. But it sounds like a crazy-good time!


Please
That ol’ Gramps in our village keeps talking about StreetPass. It must be fun. He gets so excited about it!


No
All right then…but with that quake that’s shaken everything up, is it safe to be outside?


I bet you’ve heard what Gramps is saying about StreetPass, huh? If only I had a sword so I could play too.


Customer:
Monsters are roaming around outside the village? If things get any worse, how will I protect my daughter?


Whaddya want? Can’t a guy just drink his milk in peace?
I’ll have to get your master to make me a sword.


Ah, sorry. Don’t mean to be a grump. I’m just thinking about magnifying glasses-how I’d read maps with ‘em.


But my eyesight’s going, and now not even a magnifying glass helps!
Milk Bar Owner:


Ever tried looking at a map with a magnifying glass? It’s sort of dizzy fun, going all (+)(-)(+)(-) with ‘em.
Welcome! How about a glass of cold milk fresh from Lon Lon Ranch?


It’s 20 Rupees a glass. Fancy a drink?


Flute Boy:
Please


…Hmm.  
Oh, sorry. You have to get yourself a bottle first.
I think I saw one for sale somewhere in the village, though. Come back once you have one, OK?


Ice-cold milk… Deelish, right?


Bard:
Thanks for your business!
 
Sorry, little man. My pal here, he’s pretty shy. He flat-out refuses to talk in front of people.
 
Hope you don’t take it the wrong way, but would you mind leaving him be? Much obliged!
 
It’s like I told you, pal. He doesn’t like strangers. Just the way it is.
 
How about a song to go with your milk? Just 10 Rupees.
 
Sure


No
No


Thanks, my lad.
A shame. Tasty stuff. Well, let me know if you change your mind.  
Well then, here we go. Ready to play, little friend…?


Is that so? Give me a shout if you change your mind.
Hold on. You don’t have an empty bottle. Sorry, but I can’t sell you any milk.  
Another song? Just 10 Rupees.  


Another, please!
Ask me again once you have an empty bottle, OK?


This one’s good.
Everyone in the village is talking about the castle, you know.
   
   
Well then, we’ve got another tune for you.
And how the elder left his house for the first time in forever! Who knew Sahasrahla could walk so far!


Ready to play another one, my little friend…?
Strange days, people are saying. And they’re probably about to get even stranger!


Easy there. You haven’t got enough Rupees. Sorry. We gotta eat too.
Welcome! We just got some fresh milk, already chilled!


Heard the news? People being kidnapped. Scary stuff. But there's nothing like music to ease the mood.
Welcome! Care for an icy-cold glass of-! Whuh? You heard about premium milk?


In these dark days, you’ve got to keep your spirits up. A song will do you a world of good.  
How’d you find out about the good stuff? I see… A message in a bottle.  


And from someone stranded up on the mountain? Could only be one guy. He’s a tricky customer.


Bee Guy:
Sorry to ask, but could you take this premium milk to him? I bet it would help him heal up in no time.
He’s a regular at my establishment who loves exploring the mountain.
Last time he was in here, I think he said his next expedition would take him east of the Tower of Hera.


Buzz, buzz, Link! Long time no see!
I can’t afford to lose his business. Get that to him, OK? I’m really counting on you, friend.


Huh. Don’t you remember me? I’ve been catching bees since way back in the day.  
That customer of mine who likes going up the mountain… I can’t believe how far he’s pushing himself.  


Well, I guess I’ve changed a bit. Takes a bee to see a bee. So I’ve bee-come a different person.
I wonder if he’ll actually make it past the Tower of Hera…


Now every-buzzy calls me the Bee Guy!
Best of luck to you getting that premium milk to him.


So just bee-tween us, I wonder if you’ll do me a favor.  
Before you go, remember that I’ve always got a glass of the cold stuff ready for you.  


But I see you don’t have a bottle on you, so it’ll have to bee another time, OK?
You delivered it safe and sound? Thanks a bunch. I don’t know how I can ever repay you…


Bees are a man’s best friend! Buzz, buzz now! Buzz, buzz!
How about this? From now on, you only need to pay half price for milk. You’re my favorite customer now!


Once you get hold a bottle, come back and see me-buzz, buzz!
Welcome, young sir! Care for a glass of milk? Special deal, only 10 Rupees.


I want you to catch bees for me! You can keep ‘em nice and safe in bottles.
Please


What, you don’t have a net? Bee-cause you’re helping me out, I’ll give you one of mine!
No


You got the net! Now you can catch bees-and more!


Spending my days surrounded by a buzzy swarm of bees has always been my fondest dream.
Customer:


So use that net to gather up some bees, if you please. Of course, I’ll reward you for bee-ing so helpful.
Whaddya want? Can’t a guy just drink his milk in peace?


Bees love grass and bushes. If you cut the grass, they’ll come buzzing out. Buzz, buzz!
Ah, sorry. Don’t mean to be a grump. I’m just thinking about magnifying glasses-how I’d read maps with ‘em.  


At first they’ll get startled and attack you, but stick them inside a bottle. Then they’ll bee-friend you!
But my eyesight’s going, and now not even a magnifying glass helps!


Wasp’s that? You’ve found one? I couldn’t bee more delighted!
Ever tried looking at a map with a magnifying glass? It’s sort of dizzy fun, going all (+)(-)(+)(-) with ‘em.


Wow, look at that bee’s sheen! She’s the bee’s knees!


Here’s my way of saying thanks. Take this-buzz, buzz!
Flute Boy:


You’re a real pro at catching bees, Link.
…Hmm.  


But I wonder if you can find the most bee-coming of bees. The golden bee!


I’ve never seen one before! If you can bring me one of those, I’d…! Well, I’d bee very generous.
Bard:


That quake earlier got all my little bee friends abuzz.  
Sorry, little man. My pal here, he’s pretty shy. He flat-out refuses to talk in front of people.  


I-I was a bit scared myself.
Hope you don’t take it the wrong way, but would you mind leaving him be? Much obliged!


You’ve found another bee? Here’s a little something to say thanks. Buzz, buzz, buzz!
It’s like I told you, pal. He doesn’t like strangers. Just the way it is.  


Oh, thank you from the very bottom of my buzz!
How about a song to go with your milk? Just 10 Rupees.


Let’s have a look inside that bottle of yours… WHAT? Is this some new breed of bee?
Sure


Oh, please…it’s just a plain, old, run-of-the-mill-fairy.
No


Don’t get me wrong. They’re cute. But I’ve bee-n there, done that. No, no. Only bees for me.
Thanks, my lad.
Well then, here we go. Ready to play, little friend…?


Sorry, buzz. Just bees for me, if you please.  
Is that so? Give me a shout if you change your mind.
Another song? Just 10 Rupees.  


Oh, bee still my beating heart! Is THIS-? Oh my. It IS! It’s a golden bee!
Another, please!


Thank you! She’s very bee-witching, don’t you think?
This one’s good.
Well then, we’ve got another tune for you.


That golden glow? That sweet note of honey that lingers in the air? And so regal-a queen of bees!
Ready to play another one, my little friend…?


She’s perfect!
Easy there. You haven’t got enough Rupees. Sorry. We gotta eat too.


You have outdone yourself. So please take this as thanks. Buzz.  
Heard the news? People being kidnapped. Scary stuff. But there's nothing like music to ease the mood.


That’s the Bee Badge. As long as you have that with you, bees will be friendly. No more stings.  
In these dark days, you’ve got to keep your spirits up. A song will do you a world of good.  


Of course, you know what that means. You can find me even MORE bees. It should be a breeze!


Keep up the good work-buzz, buzz!
Bee Guy:


Just to think-a golden bee! I never thought I’d see another.
Buzz, buzz, Link! Long time no see!


Buzz, buzz! Come back anytime, Link!
Huh. Don’t you remember me? I’ve been catching bees since way back in the day.


Well, I guess I’ve changed a bit. Takes a bee to see a bee. So I’ve bee-come a different person.


Now every-buzzy calls me the Bee Guy!


Fortune’s Choice Guy:
So just bee-tween us, I wonder if you’ll do me a favor.


Welcome to Fortune’s Choice! First time here? The rules are simple.
But I see you don’t have a bottle on you, so it’ll have to bee another time, OK?


I’ll reveal two treasure chests. You open one of them.
Bees are a man’s best friend! Buzz, buzz now! Buzz, buzz!


It’s 50 Rupees for one try, and if you’re lucky, you’ll win 100! If you’re not, you’ll get only one…
Once you get hold a bottle, come back and see me-buzz, buzz!


What do you say? Try your luck for 50 Rupees?
I want you to catch bees for me! You can keep ‘em nice and safe in bottles.


Sure
What, you don’t have a net? Bee-cause you’re helping me out, I’ll give you one of mine!


No
You got the net! Now you can catch bees-and more!


All right then. Wait a second while I set it up.  
Spending my days surrounded by a buzzy swarm of bees has always been my fondest dream.  


OK then. Open a chest!
So use that net to gather up some bees, if you please. Of course, I’ll reward you for bee-ing so helpful.  


You can always give it another try. I’ll be waiting.
Bees love grass and bushes. If you cut the grass, they’ll come buzzing out. Buzz, buzz!
What? You don’t have enough Rupees. Well, feel free to come back anytime.  


All right, just ask if you ever want to play.
At first they’ll get startled and attack you, but stick them inside a bottle. Then they’ll bee-friend you!
Welcome to Fortune’s Choice, the only game in Kakariko Village!


Care to play? Only 50 Rupees!
Wasp’s that? You’ve found one? I couldn’t bee more delighted!


Sure
Wow, look at that bee’s sheen! She’s the bee’s knees!


No
Here’s my way of saying thanks. Take this-buzz, buzz!


All right, just ask if you ever want to play!
You’re a real pro at catching bees, Link.


I heard things are getting ugly out there. Well, no better time than the present for a little fun!
But I wonder if you can find the most bee-coming of bees. The golden bee!


I’ve never seen one before! If you can bring me one of those, I’d…! Well, I’d bee very generous.


Woman:
That quake earlier got all my little bee friends abuzz.


The village is really bustling today, don’t you think? I think I’ll stay inside where it’s nice and quiet!
I-I was a bit scared myself.


So… I’ve had a hard time sleeping lately. I’ve been hearing the strangest little cries from my roof.  
You’ve found another bee? Here’s a little something to say thanks. Buzz, buzz, buzz!


I’ve never heard anything like it before. It’s keeping me up all night.
Oh, thank you from the very bottom of my buzz!


Have you heard those strange little sounds coming from my roof? I wonder what’s making that noise.
Let’s have a look inside that bottle of yours… WHAT? Is this some new breed of bee?


Remember those strange little cries I was hearing from my roof?
Oh, please…it’s just a plain, old, run-of-the-mill-fairy.


Well, can you believe it? Those sounds stopped!
Don’t get me wrong. They’re cute. But I’ve bee-n there, done that. No, no. Only bees for me.


What? You took some creature off of it? Thanks, Link!
Sorry, buzz. Just bees for me, if you please.


Now I can get a good night’s rest again. Please take this reward.
Oh, bee still my beating heart! Is THIS-? Oh my. It IS! It’s a golden bee!


How strange… I miss those little cries coming from my roof. It was a sweet sound, now that I think of it.
Thank you! She’s very bee-witching, don’t you think?


That golden glow? That sweet note of honey that lingers in the air? And so regal-a queen of bees!


Girl:
She’s perfect!


Hey, you ever seen one of those little fairies, Link?
You have outdone yourself. So please take this as thanks. Buzz.


They’re so small, I bet you could catch one with a net!
That’s the Bee Badge. As long as you have that with you, bees will be friendly. No more stings.


It’d be real neat if you could put a fairy in a bottle…
Of course, you know what that means. You can find me even MORE bees. It should be a breeze!


Hey, Papa. Can you take me somewhere fun?
Keep up the good work-buzz, buzz!


The sky over the castle is a weird color. Why’s that?
Just to think-a golden bee! I never thought I’d see another.  


Have you seen any of those fairies, Link?
Buzz, buzz! Come back anytime, Link!


You know, I bet you could nab one with a net!


I haven’t seen the elder’s pupil lately. He comes around to play now and then. But I wonder…


Where’s Osfala gone to?
Fortune’s Choice Guy:


Welcome to Fortune’s Choice! First time here? The rules are simple.


I’ll reveal two treasure chests. You open one of them.


Boy:
It’s 50 Rupees for one try, and if you’re lucky, you’ll win 100! If you’re not, you’ll get only one…


Heard about the guy who lives with a bunch of little birds? It’s true! He’s hidden away somewhere.
What do you say? Try your luck for 50 Rupees?


I wish I could make friends with little birds like that.
Sure


Come to think of it, I heard that bird guy lives somewhere along the river. Wish I could see his birds.
No


Have you seen that guy near Sahasrahla’s house?
All right then. Wait a second while I set it up.


He runs away if you get too close. He’s super fast, so he must be a professional tag player or something!
OK then. Open a chest!


The guy just stands there with this back to the wall though, just watching everyone in the village!
You can always give it another try. I’ll be waiting.
What? You don’t have enough Rupees. Well, feel free to come back anytime.


Hey, there’s a weird haze around the castle! Know anything about that, Link?
All right, just ask if you ever want to play.
Welcome to Fortune’s Choice, the only game in Kakariko Village!


Hey, are you going to the castle too, Link?
Care to play? Only 50 Rupees!


Sahasrahla just headed off in that direction. Some kind of trouble happening there?
Sure


I wonder why Sahasrahla hurried off to the castle like that. Something awful must be going on there.
No


All right, just ask if you ever want to play!


I heard things are getting ugly out there. Well, no better time than the present for a little fun!


Item Seller:


Lend me your ear for a moment, won’t you? You know that street merchant outside?
Woman:


He’s selling hearts. Can you believe that? Hearts! I mean, you can just scoop them off the ground with a net.
The village is really bustling today, don’t you think? I think I’ll stay inside where it’s nice and quiet!


The nerve of that man! Might as well sell the leaves off trees! Don’t buy them, whatever you do.  
So… I’ve had a hard time sleeping lately. I’ve been hearing the strangest little cries from my roof.  


You know, this is actually my husband’s store. But he and I…well, we had a little argument.  
I’ve never heard anything like it before. It’s keeping me up all night.  


He bought an apple from the merchant outside for a ridiculous amount of Rupees.  
Have you heard those strange little sounds coming from my roof? I wonder what’s making that noise.  


So I scolded him. You can’t blame me. My husband hasn’t the slightest sense of what things are worth.
Remember those strange little cries I was hearing from my roof?


Anyway, he wandered off and hasn’t come back. He’s SO sensitive, that man. Where he is, I have no idea!
Well, can you believe it? Those sounds stopped!


That, my friend, is a Scoot Fruit. Just 50 Rupees. Want to buy it?
What? You took some creature off of it? Thanks, Link!


Buy
Now I can get a good night’s rest again. Please take this reward.


Oh, I’m sorry, but it looks like you have one.  
How strange… I miss those little cries coming from my roof. It was a sweet sound, now that I think of it.  


These are fairly rare, so we can sell you one only after you’ve used what you have.


Don’t buy
Girl:


All right then.
Hey, you ever seen one of those little fairies, Link?


That, my friend, is a Foul Fruit. Just 30 Rupees. Want to buy it?
They’re so small, I bet you could catch one with a net!


Buy
It’d be real neat if you could put a fairy in a bottle…


Oh, I’m sorry, but it looks like you have one.
Hey, Papa. Can you take me somewhere fun?


These are fairly rare, so we can sell you one only after you’ve used what you have.  
The sky over the castle is a weird color. Why’s that?


Don’t buy
Have you seen any of those fairies, Link?


Oh, you’re interested in a shield?
You know, I bet you could nab one with a net!


That makes perfect sense what with all those monsters outside the village. They sprang up so suddenly!
I haven’t seen the elder’s pupil lately. He comes around to play now and then. But I wonder…


I’ll sell it to you for 50 Rupees. How about it?
Where’s Osfala gone to?


Buy


Thank you very much! Shields are easy to use. Just press (R button) to hold it up and protect yourself.


That’s it. Defense is important when you’re fighting monsters. Now watch yourself out there, OK?
Boy:


But you’ve got one! No one needs more than one shield.
Heard about the guy who lives with a bunch of little birds? It’s true! He’s hidden away somewhere.  


I have heard, though, that there are monsters out there that eat shields. So come back if that happens!
I wish I could make friends with little birds like that.  


Don’t buy
Come to think of it, I heard that bird guy lives somewhere along the river. Wish I could see his birds.


Well then, be extra careful out there.
Have you seen that guy near Sahasrahla’s house?


He runs away if you get too close. He’s super fast, so he must be a professional tag player or something!


Impa:
The guy just stands there with this back to the wall though, just watching everyone in the village!


My word! What in Hyrule is all the shouting about , guard?
Hey, there’s a weird haze around the castle! Know anything about that, Link?


Is that so? What is this message?
Hey, are you going to the castle too, Link?


Indeed? Seres was transformed into a painting? But that’s-? Well, frankly it’s beyond belief.
Sahasrahla just headed off in that direction. Some kind of trouble happening there?


Then again, strange paintings are popping up all over the castle. There may be something to all this.  
I wonder why Sahasrahla hurried off to the castle like that. Something awful must be going on there.  


Hmm, yes. I wonder…


Quickly come with me. You’ve got to tell Princess Zelda what you saw at the Sanctuary.


Wait here while I announce you to the princess. Feel Free to take a close look at our gallery here.
Item Seller:


Princess Zelda is ready to see you now. Right this way, please.
Lend me your ear for a moment, won’t you? You know that street merchant outside?


Fret not, Princess. I’d advise that we consult Sahasrahla for help.  
He’s selling hearts. Can you believe that? Hearts! I mean, you can just scoop them off the ground with a net.  
 
The nerve of that man! Might as well sell the leaves off trees! Don’t buy them, whatever you do.  


The elder’s knowledge of the past…Well, it’s more than vast.
You know, this is actually my husband’s store. But he and I…well, we had a little argument.  


Are you sure about this, Princess? The royal family has kept that safe for untold generations!
He bought an apple from the merchant outside for a ridiculous amount of Rupees.


The princess gave you that charm because she sensed something in you, Link.
So I scolded him. You can’t blame me. My husband hasn’t the slightest sense of what things are worth.  


Don’t let her down.  
Anyway, he wandered off and hasn’t come back. He’s SO sensitive, that man. Where he is, I have no idea!


Ah, yes, Link… Here you are.  
That, my friend, is a Scoot Fruit. Just 50 Rupees. Want to buy it?


I shouldn’t have doubted the princess for a moment. You ARE the hero of our time.
Buy


And what a splendid hero you make. You’ve endured so much to get this far.  
Oh, I’m sorry, but it looks like you have one.  


Hyrule is facing the same threat as in the legend of old, and you have so much more to endure.  
These are fairly rare, so we can sell you one only after you’ve used what you have.  


Yet we can help, now that you have united the Seven Sages. We can summon the Triforce of Courage.
Don’t buy


You must do what that hero of legend did so long ago. So take our gift, young hero…
All right then.  


Take it now!
That, my friend, is a Foul Fruit. Just 30 Rupees. Want to buy it?


Buy


Official:
Oh, I’m sorry, but it looks like you have one.


The paintings here are spectacular. But they also tell of our legendary past-and of the Seven Sages.
These are fairly rare, so we can sell you one only after you’ve used what you have.  


Look at the (black diamond) symbols on the floor to tell the order of events.
Don’t buy


The descendants of the Seven Sages live among us today. It’s no secret that Lady Impa is one of them!
Oh, you’re interested in a shield?


That makes perfect sense what with all those monsters outside the village. They sprang up so suddenly!


Painting I: The Golden Triforce
I’ll sell it to you for 50 Rupees. How about it?


This gift from the gods, Hyrule’s greatest treasure, will grant the wish of any mortal who touches it.
Buy
The Triforce once stoked greed in the hearts of men. A legendary war was fought to keep it out of evil hands.


Thank you very much! Shields are easy to use. Just press (R button) to hold it up and protect yourself.


Painting II: The Sealed Triforce
That’s it. Defense is important when you’re fighting monsters. Now watch yourself out there, OK?


To end the war for the Triforce, the royal family decided to hide it in the Sacred Realm.  
But you’ve got one! No one needs more than one shield.


They summoned the Seven Sages of legend, who used their power to seal the Triforce away.  
I have heard, though, that there are monsters out there that eat shields. So come back if that happens!


Don’t buy


Painting III: The Demon King
Well then, be extra careful out there.


The Demon King Ganon was once just a thief-until the man broke into the Sacred Realm.


There he stole the Triforce and transformed himself. Then he took his evil campaign back to Hyrule.
Impa:


My word! What in Hyrule is all the shouting about , guard?


Painting IV: The Hero Awakens
Is that so? What is this message?


A hero of legend arose from humble beginnings, awoken to his purpose by a princess of Hyrule.  
Indeed? Seres was transformed into a painting? But that’s-? Well, frankly it’s beyond belief.  


With the Master Sword, the blade of evil’s bane, he sought the descendants of the Seven Sages.  
Then again, strange paintings are popping up all over the castle. There may be something to all this.  


Together they defeated the Demon King Ganon-and sealed him away in darkness.  
Hmm, yes. I wonder…


Quickly come with me. You’ve got to tell Princess Zelda what you saw at the Sanctuary.


Painting V: The Triforce, Split Apart
Wait here while I announce you to the princess. Feel Free to take a close look at our gallery here.


The Triforce was split into three pieces, separated forever. One piece remains with the royal family.  
Princess Zelda is ready to see you now. Right this way, please.  


Another piece has fallen into the hands of Ganon, sealed away with him.  
Fret not, Princess. I’d advise that we consult Sahasrahla for help.  


The third piece of the Triforce has vanished, though legend says it is hidden in the spirit of a true hero.  
The elder’s knowledge of the past…Well, it’s more than vast.


It slumbers now somewhere in Hyrule-waiting for the time when the world needs a new hero.
Are you sure about this, Princess? The royal family has kept that safe for untold generations!


The princess gave you that charm because she sensed something in you, Link.


Zelda:
Don’t let her down.


I bid you fondest welcome to Hyrule Castle, stranger.  
Ah, yes, Link… Here you are.  


I hear you have something to-? Wait… It’s you…!
I shouldn’t have doubted the princess for a moment. You ARE the hero of our time.


Forgive me, but might I ask your name?
And what a splendid hero you make. You’ve endured so much to get this far.


Ah, while your name is unfamiliar to me, Link…
Hyrule is facing the same threat as in the legend of old, and you have so much more to endure.


I’ve seen your face in my dreams of late. For I’ve dreamt of a hero locked in battle with a terrible evil.  
Yet we can help, now that you have united the Seven Sages. We can summon the Triforce of Courage.  


What, you’ve had the same dream, Link?
You must do what that hero of legend did so long ago. So take our gift, young hero…


Surely fate has sent you here! Please then, tell me what you saw at the Sanctuary.
Take it now!


Seres has been transformed into a painting? The captain as well?
I sense a terrible darkness behind these events…


Oh, Impa, I fear that evil is awakening once more in our fair land.
Official:


Yes, of course. That’s just where to start. So, Link…
The paintings here are spectacular. But they also tell of our legendary past-and of the Seven Sages.


Would you please find Sahasrahla? The elder should be at home in Kakariko Village.  
Look at the (black diamond) symbols on the floor to tell the order of events.


I am certain he will be able to help!
The descendants of the Seven Sages live among us today. It’s no secret that Lady Impa is one of them!


Now, there’s just one more thing.


I would like to send you off with my most treasured possession.
Painting I: The Golden Triforce


It’s a rather special charm.  
This gift from the gods, Hyrule’s greatest treasure, will grant the wish of any mortal who touches it.
The Triforce once stoked greed in the hearts of men. A legendary war was fought to keep it out of evil hands.  


Quite sure, Lady Impa.


This has been in my safekeeping since the day I was born. Now I will entrust it to you.
Painting II: The Sealed Triforce


Please, tell Sahasrahla everything that you saw.  
To end the war for the Triforce, the royal family decided to hide it in the Sacred Realm.  


Oh? You say that now Osfala is in danger? Then please, in all haste, Link…
They summoned the Seven Sages of legend, who used their power to seal the Triforce away.


Please find Osfala!


Your rampage through my kingdom must stop, Yuga! How many more of my people do you intend to take?
Painting III: The Demon King


What do you plan to do with them?
The Demon King Ganon was once just a thief-until the man broke into the Sacred Realm.


Confess it, monster! You plan to use our Seven Sages to revive Ganon, don’t you?
There he stole the Triforce and transformed himself. Then he took his evil campaign back to Hyrule.


You’re not even listening to me!


Aaaahhh!
Painting IV: The Hero Awakens


A hero of legend arose from humble beginnings, awoken to his purpose by a princess of Hyrule.


Sahasrahla:
With the Master Sword, the blade of evil’s bane, he sought the descendants of the Seven Sages.


…Zzz…zzz…zzz…ess Zelda…zzz……zzz…Master…zzz…Sword…
Together they defeated the Demon King Ganon-and sealed him away in darkness.


Agh!


Oh dear. Dozed off again…
Painting V: The Triforce, Split Apart


It’s you, Link!
The Triforce was split into three pieces, separated forever. One piece remains with the royal family.


But the look on your face! So grim, child. What’s the matter?
Another piece has fallen into the hands of Ganon, sealed away with him.  


Seres was turned into a what? A painting? And then she was stolen away?
The third piece of the Triforce has vanished, though legend says it is hidden in the spirit of a true hero.


And Princess Zelda sent you here to tell me… Ah, I see. This can mean only one thing.  
It slumbers now somewhere in Hyrule-waiting for the time when the world needs a new hero.  


I’m sure you’ve heard the legends of old. About the Seven Sages? And the hero who saved Hyrule?


Of course
Zelda:


Tell me
I bid you fondest welcome to Hyrule Castle, stranger.


Tell you? Of course! But surely, you have heard this. Every child of Hyrule grows up hearing of that hero… and fearing Ganon.
I hear you have something to-? Wait… It’s you…!


Just when Hyrule was on the brink of ruin, the hero of legend appeared.
Forgive me, but might I ask your name?


He gathered the descendants of the Seven Sages, who had once sealed Ganon in darkness…and together they defeated the Demon King and sealed him away once more. Hyrule was saved.
Ah, while your name is unfamiliar to me, Link…


But, oh-! This talk of legends must stop. There’s no time to waste!
I’ve seen your face in my dreams of late. For I’ve dreamt of a hero locked in battle with a terrible evil.  


Seres is a descendant of the original Seven Sages who sealed Ganon in darkness all those years ago.
What, you’ve had the same dream, Link?


This Yuga you speak of, he must be after the Seven Sages of our day. He surely intends to free Ganon.  
Surely fate has sent you here! Please then, tell me what you saw at the Sanctuary.  


Oh no!
Seres has been transformed into a painting? The captain as well?
I sense a terrible darkness behind these events…


When I heard rumors of a strange man lurking near the Eastern Palace. I sent my pupil Osfala to investigate.
Oh, Impa, I fear that evil is awakening once more in our fair land.  
I’ve put him in danger, for he’s also a descendant of the Seven Sages! I’m sure Yuga will be waiting for him!


I’ll never make it in time to warn him! But you, Link…
Yes, of course. That’s just where to start. So, Link…


Could you hurry to Osfala and tell him everything? Please!
Would you please find Sahasrahla? The elder should be at home in Kakariko Village.


I’ve made note of the location of the Eastern Palace on your map.
I am certain he will be able to help!


You can zoom in and out by using (+) and (-). But you may know that already.
Now, there’s just one more thing.  
There’s no time to lose. Go now, quickly!


Hurry on ahead! I’ll join you there just as soon as I can.  
I would like to send you off with my most treasured possession.  


Ah, my lad! You’ve finally found your way back out of the Eastern Palace!
It’s a rather special charm.


But what of Osfala?
Quite sure, Lady Impa.


No…! Yuga has taken Osfala too?
This has been in my safekeeping since the day I was born. Now I will entrust it to you.


Worse still, he now has two of our Sages!
Please, tell Sahasrahla everything that you saw.


And that fiend said he was going after Princess Zelda next? We mustn’t let that happen!
Oh? You say that now Osfala is in danger? Then please, in all haste, Link…


My word! What was THAT?!
Please find Osfala!


Are we too late? Something dire is happening at Hyrule Castle! There’s no time to waste!
Your rampage through my kingdom must stop, Yuga! How many more of my people do you intend to take?


Wh-what is going on here?!
What do you plan to do with them?


That barrier! I’ve never seen such magic! I daren’t approach it.
Confess it, monster! You plan to use our Seven Sages to revive Ganon, don’t you?


But we must break through somehow. Princess Zelda and Lady Impa are trapped inside the castle!
You’re not even listening to me!


Listen well, Link. We must turn again to the legend of old for our solution.
Aaaahhh!
These abominable events are an echo of what happened all those years ago.
Then, when the castle was in the grip of evil, the hero of that day found the Master Sword.


The hero first had to claim the three Pendants of Virtue to prove himself worth of the blade.


But there we are already thwarted. For one of those pendants is INSIDE the castle with Princess Zelda!
Sahasrahla:


Oh, what a quandary. We need her pendant, but there’s no way to get it.
…Zzz…zzz…zzz…ess Zelda…zzz……zzz…Master…zzz…Sword…


Wh-what’s that?
Agh!


It can’t be! You’re waring-! That’s the Pendant of Courage!
Oh dear. Dozed off again…


What in Hyrule are you doing with it, Link?
It’s you, Link!


She gave it to you? A special charm?
But the look on your face! So grim, child. What’s the matter?


How right she was. She must have sensed the evil in Hyrule-and the rise of a new hero to meet it.
Seres was turned into a what? A painting? And then she was stolen away?


So is it you? It must be. Why else would the princess have given you the Pendant of Courage?
And Princess Zelda sent you here to tell me… Ah, I see. This can mean only one thing.  


She knew you would need to get the Master Sword!
I’m sure you’ve heard the legends of old. About the Seven Sages? And the hero who saved Hyrule?


Well then, my young hero, you’ve got quite a quest ahead of you. You have to find the other two pendants.
Of course
One pendant has been enshrined in the House of Gales.


And the other pendant, in the Tower of Hera.
Tell me


I will mark those spots on your map, Link.  
Tell you? Of course! But surely, you have heard this. Every child of Hyrule grows up hearing of that hero… and fearing Ganon.


But first, it seems prudent to save before taking up such a quest. Care to do that, young hero?
Just when Hyrule was on the brink of ruin, the hero of legend appeared.  


Yes
He gathered the descendants of the Seven Sages, who had once sealed Ganon in darkness…and together they defeated the Demon King and sealed him away once more. Hyrule was saved.


No
But, oh-! This talk of legends must stop. There’s no time to waste!


Well…it was just a thought. It’s the wisdom of the ages to save every now and then.  
Seres is a descendant of the original Seven Sages who sealed Ganon in darkness all those years ago.  


I shall head home to search my library for clues to who the other Seven Sages of our day might be.  
This Yuga you speak of, he must be after the Seven Sages of our day. He surely intends to free Ganon.  


So for now, it’s all up to you, Link!
Oh no!


Ah, tell me, how are things going? Do you have the pendants yet, Link?
When I heard rumors of a strange man lurking near the Eastern Palace. I sent my pupil Osfala to investigate.
I’ve put him in danger, for he’s also a descendant of the Seven Sages! I’m sure Yuga will be waiting for him!


I see… Well, I’m certain you will succeed. The princess had faith in you, after all!
I’ll never make it in time to warn him! But you, Link…


The fate of our kingdom rests in your hands, Link!
Could you hurry to Osfala and tell him everything? Please!


Ah, tell me, how are things going? Do you have the pendants yet, Link?
I’ve made note of the location of the Eastern Palace on your map.


Well done! You’ve secured the Pendant of Wisdom, haven’t you?!
You can zoom in and out by using (+) and (-). But you may know that already.
There’s no time to lose. Go now, quickly!


Now you must brave the Tower of Hera and get that pendant too! I wish you luck, Link!
Hurry on ahead! I’ll join you there just as soon as I can.


Hear me, Link…
Ah, my lad! You’ve finally found your way back out of the Eastern Palace!


You have done well, my young hero!
But what of Osfala?


You acquired the Pendant of Wisdom and the Pendant of Power.
No…! Yuga has taken Osfala too?


Now that you have all three Pendants of Virtue, you have proven yourself worthy of the Master Sword.
Worse still, he now has two of our Sages!


You will find the blade deep within the Lost Woods! Go now. Claim what is rightfully yours!
And that fiend said he was going after Princess Zelda next? We mustn’t let that happen!


Ah, have you found the Master Sword yet, Link?
My word! What was THAT?!


I see… Well, then you must brave the depths of the woods to the north. It can be a fiendish forest.
Are we too late? Something dire is happening at Hyrule Castle! There’s no time to waste!


But I’m certain you have it in you to find your way to that blade.
Wh-what is going on here?!


You’re so close now. Keep going, Link!
That barrier! I’ve never seen such magic! I daren’t approach it.  


Hear me, Link…
But we must break through somehow. Princess Zelda and Lady Impa are trapped inside the castle!


The sword you hold in your hand is the one and only Master Sword!
Listen well, Link. We must turn again to the legend of old for our solution.
These abominable events are an echo of what happened all those years ago.
Then, when the castle was in the grip of evil, the hero of that day found the Master Sword.


Now that you possess that blade, you can break the barrier at the castle.  
The hero first had to claim the three Pendants of Virtue to prove himself worth of the blade.  


So make haste. We don’t have much time left. Get to Hyrule Castle!
But there we are already thwarted. For one of those pendants is INSIDE the castle with Princess Zelda!


Aha! No doubt-that is the very blade of evil’s bane. You have found the Master Sword!
Oh, what a quandary. We need her pendant, but there’s no way to get it.  


Well done, Link.
Wh-what’s that?


Now there’s no time to waste. Strike down this nefarious barrier!
It can’t be! You’re waring-! That’s the Pendant of Courage!


Please now, Link! Time is of the essence! Strike this evil barrier with your blade!
What in Hyrule are you doing with it, Link?


Why, that’s incredible! How easily it cuts through such dark magic!
She gave it to you? A special charm?


Come now, to action! You must find Princess Zelda at once.  
How right she was. She must have sensed the evil in Hyrule-and the rise of a new hero to meet it.  


But it seems wise before such a fateful moment to save. Shall I do that for you now?
So is it you? It must be. Why else would the princess have given you the Pendant of Courage?


Yes
She knew you would need to get the Master Sword!


No
Well then, my young hero, you’ve got quite a quest ahead of you. You have to find the other two pendants.
One pendant has been enshrined in the House of Gales.


Well…it was just a thought. It’s the wisdom of the ages to save every now and then.  
And the other pendant, in the Tower of Hera.  


Then please, in all haste, rescue the princess, Link!
I will mark those spots on your map, Link.


Yuga said he was going after the princess, didn’t he? And he’ll surely go after Lady Impa too.
But first, it seems prudent to save before taking up such a quest. Care to do that, young hero?


Then he’ll have yet another Sage. So head into Hyrule Castle and put a stop to this tragedy!
Yes


Oh, my lad! You’re alive? I thought that…!
No


No matter. I am just glad to see you alive and well. Please tell me, is Princess Zelda safe?
Well…it was just a thought. It’s the wisdom of the ages to save every now and then.  


I see… So Yuga has become evil itself in a kingdom of shadow… Curse him for all eternity!
I shall head home to search my library for clues to who the other Seven Sages of our day might be.


His evil has spread even here, for just after you vanished into Hyrule Castle, a quake shook the kingdom!
So for now, it’s all up to you, Link!


It left fissures like this all through Hyrule! And when there are cracks, can shattering be far behind?
Ah, tell me, how are things going? Do you have the pendants yet, Link?  


Oh, Link…
I see… Well, I’m certain you will succeed. The princess had faith in you, after all!


With Princess Zelda in our enemy’s hands, Hyrule is on the brink of disaster.
The fate of our kingdom rests in your hands, Link!


But you…! You at least wield the sacred blade of legend, the Master Sword!
Ah, tell me, how are things going? Do you have the pendants yet, Link?


Hope lives still, as long as you hold that sword, and your courage will surely see us through.
Well done! You’ve secured the Pendant of Wisdom, haven’t you?!


The future of Hyrule Kingdom is in your hands, Link.
Now you must brave the Tower of Hera and get that pendant too! I wish you luck, Link!


These cracks are all over Hyrule, even in the back of my house!
Hear me, Link…


Where can I go? Where will I sleep? I fear getting too close to such vicious fissures!
You have done well, my young hero!


Oh, hear an old man’s pleas. Restore Hyrule Kingdom to what it was, Link!
You acquired the Pendant of Wisdom and the Pendant of Power.
 
Now that you have all three Pendants of Virtue, you have proven yourself worthy of the Master Sword.  


You will find the blade deep within the Lost Woods! Go now. Claim what is rightfully yours!


Ah, have you found the Master Sword yet, Link?


Stylish Woman:
I see… Well, then you must brave the depths of the woods to the north. It can be a fiendish forest.


Eeeeee! How…how in Hyrule did you get in here? My door is locked, Link!
But I’m certain you have it in you to find your way to that blade.


Well, never mind. I’m actually glad you popped in. I was just admiring my new dress.
You’re so close now. Keep going, Link!


What do you think of it? Glamorous, isn’t it? Oh, you’re too kind.
Hear me, Link…


Very sweet of you. So here. Take this as thanks, Link.
The sword you hold in your hand is the one and only Master Sword!


I’ll leave the door open, so you’re welcome to pop in and out as you please.  
Now that you possess that blade, you can break the barrier at the castle.  


This dress really is delightful, don’t you think? It’s more beautiful than even Lake Hylia.  
So make haste. We don’t have much time left. Get to Hyrule Castle!


Which reminds me…last time I was on the east shore of the lake, I saw something gleaming in the shallows.
Aha! No doubt-that is the very blade of evil’s bane. You have found the Master Sword!


I wonder if it’s still there.  
Well done, Link.


Of course, I couldn’t get it. I simply wasn’t dressed for swimming!
Now there’s no time to waste. Strike down this nefarious barrier!


Oh, you came back. Here’s a little token of my affection. Go on-take it. Don’t be shy!
Please now, Link! Time is of the essence! Strike this evil barrier with your blade!


Come back whenever you like!
Why, that’s incredible! How easily it cuts through such dark magic!


Come now, to action! You must find Princess Zelda at once.


But it seems wise before such a fateful moment to save. Shall I do that for you now?


Housekeeper:
Yes


How curious! I haven’t seen Osfala today. Hmm. I do wonder…
No


He’s probably out somewhere trying to prove himself a great hero, and all for Princess Zelda’s sake too.
Well…it was just a thought. It’s the wisdom of the ages to save every now and then.  
*sigh* There was a time when I thought Osfala would be MY hero. I suppose it just wasn’t meant to be.
You know, Osfala once made a gift of this robe to me. I thought he might have meant something by it.
But sometimes, a gift is just a gift.  


Then please, in all haste, rescue the princess, Link!


Osfala:
Yuga said he was going after the princess, didn’t he? And he’ll surely go after Lady Impa too.


You, stop where you are! What are you doing here at the Eastern Palace?
Then he’ll have yet another Sage. So head into Hyrule Castle and put a stop to this tragedy!


Oh, my apologies. I thought you were someone I’m looking for. Aren’t you Link?
Oh, my lad! You’re alive? I thought that…!


You’re the blacksmith’s apprentice, right? But what brings you all the way to the Eastern Palace?
No matter. I am just glad to see you alive and well. Please tell me, is Princess Zelda safe?


Vile deeds at the Sanctuary?
I see… So Yuga has become evil itself in a kingdom of shadow… Curse him for all eternity!


My master sent you to fetch me back to safety?
His evil has spread even here, for just after you vanished into Hyrule Castle, a quake shook the kingdom!


Wah-haha!
It left fissures like this all through Hyrule! And when there are cracks, can shattering be far behind?


This Yuga you speak of… Surely he’s cause for grave concern.
Oh, Link…


But why should Sahasrahla be worried about me? I’m a descendant of the original Seven Sages.  
With Princess Zelda in our enemy’s hands, Hyrule is on the brink of disaster.  


I’m just as powerful as they were.
But you…! You at least wield the sacred blade of legend, the Master Sword!


I even got myself a Sand Rod, so I’m more or less invincible. Bold talk, you might say, but it’s simply the truth.  
Hope lives still, as long as you hold that sword, and your courage will surely see us through.  


I’ll get to the bottom of all this Yuga nonsense. Now, farewell to you, Link.  
The future of Hyrule Kingdom is in your hands, Link.  


These cracks are all over Hyrule, even in the back of my house!


Irene:
Where can I go? Where will I sleep? I fear getting too close to such vicious fissures!


Whoa! Hold up a second, greenie!
Oh, hear an old man’s pleas. Restore Hyrule Kingdom to what it was, Link!


Yeah, I’m talking to you! Someone else wearing the green hat?
You must have seen how many of those fissures have appeared throughout our kingdom.


Who am I? Haven’t heard of me? I’m Irene, best witch of my generation!
Sinister as they seem, they may lead your closer to Hyrule’s salvation. Search far and wide for all of them!


Still a junior witch, but whatever.
You’re our kingdom’s last hope, Link…


All right. Get this, I had my fortune told this morning, right?


And I was told I’d soon be visited by disaster. DISASTER!


But if I want to change my future, I should take care of…green. I was like, GREEN?
Stylish Woman:


What, I should take care of the grass? I’m not mowing every lawn in Hyrule! Forget that. I’m a witch on the rise!
Eeeeee! How…how in Hyrule did you get in here? My door is locked, Link!


And then you came along-and then it all made sense. I’ve got to take care of you, greenie.  
Well, never mind. I’m actually glad you popped in. I was just admiring my new dress.  


So here. Take this thing.  
What do you think of it? Glamorous, isn’t it? Oh, you’re too kind.  


Been seeing those weather vanes all over the place? Just ring that bell, and I’ll fly you to any ones you’ve found.  
Very sweet of you. So here. Take this as thanks, Link.  


Normally I don’t take passengers, but I’d rather haul you all over Hyrule than face disaster.  
I’ll leave the door open, so you’re welcome to pop in and out as you please.  


Anyway, gotta fly. I have errands to run for my gram. Later!
This dress really is delightful, don’t you think? It’s more beautiful than even Lake Hylia.  


Oh, right. One more thing. My gram’s a world-class potion brewer. Her shop is behind the Eastern Palace.  
Which reminds me…last time I was on the east shore of the lake, I saw something gleaming in the shallows.  


I’d strongly suggest you go look her up. Her potions can’t be beat.
I wonder if it’s still there.  
See? I’m looking out for you already, greenie.  


Hey, you’re roaming around here, huh? Been to the fortune-teller over there yet?
Of course, I couldn’t get it. I simply wasn’t dressed for swimming!


He’s always got good info about what’s to come. So if you’re lost or stuck…? Go chat with him.
Oh, you came back. Here’s a little token of my affection. Go on-take it. Don’t be shy!
If you find yourself stuck, don’t forget to have your fortune told. See, I just can’t HELP helping you!


Hey, nice bell-ringing there. You’re a natural!
Come back whenever you like!


Hold tight so you don’t fall. See? I’m looking out for you big time!


Yeah, yeah. I heard you. Clang, clang. I was busy helping my gram!


Ever confused about where to go next? My gram isn’t big on it, but I swear by fortune-telling.
Housekeeper:


Had yours done? It works-really! So stop by the fortune-teller near the forest.  
How curious! I haven’t seen Osfala today. Hmm. I do wonder…


I know my fortune said to take care of green, but that bell is doing a job on my noggin.  
He’s probably out somewhere trying to prove himself a great hero, and all for Princess Zelda’s sake too.
*sigh* There was a time when I thought Osfala would be MY hero. I suppose it just wasn’t meant to be.
You know, Osfala once made a gift of this robe to me. I thought he might have meant something by it.
But sometimes, a gift is just a gift.  


Are you REALLY the green thing I’m supposed to be taking care of? Cuz you look like you’re doing just fine.


Well, whatever. Nice to see you now and then.
Osfala:


I hope you appreciate this. You know I’ve got a life of my own, right?
You, stop where you are! What are you doing here at the Eastern Palace?


Things to do? Places to fly? But it looks like you’re having a rough slog, so no problem.
Oh, my apologies. I thought you were someone I’m looking for. Aren’t you Link?
…


You’re the blacksmith’s apprentice, right? But what brings you all the way to the Eastern Palace?


Treasure Hunter:
Vile deeds at the Sanctuary?


…Now, how’s all this going to work?
My master sent you to fetch me back to safety?


This place has so many levels… Time for some three-dimensional thinking.
Wah-haha!
So once that’s done, sure, that treasure will be mine!


There seem to be lots of empty chests around the kingdom.
This Yuga you speak of… Surely he’s cause for grave concern.  
I’m starting to think I’m not the only treasure hunter hereabouts.  


Maybe jump off the ledge. Oh, better be holding a Cucco too! Right. That part’s important.
But why should Sahasrahla be worried about me? I’m a descendant of the original Seven Sages.  
Yeah, then that treasure will be mine!


That block’s moving between there…and there… Gotta time it right.
I’m just as powerful as they were.  
Step on the floor switch, then hit the two round switches…


Well, that seems simple. Just need a bit of a breather first.  
I even got myself a Sand Rod, so I’m more or less invincible. Bold talk, you might say, but it’s simply the truth.  


Dang. If I only had a sense of timing, that treasure would have been mine!
I’ll get to the bottom of all this Yuga nonsense. Now, farewell to you, Link.


Use the Hookshot to fly at that wall. Uh, then press (A button) the moment I reach it? Right. That’s it.


Well, I worked it out. But it’s too bad my stomach gets all oogie when it comes to heights.
…Wh-where am I…?


Yes, yes, I’m a professional treasure hunter. I can’t go anywhere without being recognized.
You-the blacksmith’s apprentice! What are you doing here?


Having a tough time here, though. If only I could manipulate sand and wind, then I…
And with the Master Sword, no less!


Well, let’s just say I’d be able to secure myself a nice little piece of treasure here…
That can only mean that you…have rescued…ME?


Don’t you worry about it, though, kid. Just leave it to the professionals. I’ll figure this one out soon enough!
But I always thought that I was the hero of our day. That I was the one who’d be there for Princess Zelda!


It seems that I am only a Sage and not the hero. How very odd. Yet now I know my place in all of this.


So I pledge my support to your quest, little hero. Thank you for saving me, Link.


Zora Underling:
Now please, find the rest of the Seven Sages before it is too late.


The bridge is broken. Some guy just dashed by and jumped it, though. Me, I could never do that.  
Ah, and I suppose if you’re the hero, then you have more need of this Sand Rod than have I.  


I suppose there’s nothing to do but swim to Zora’s Domain.  
I wish I could give it to you as a gift, but truth be told, it’s not mine. It belongs to a merchant named Ravio.  


What’d you say? You can’t swim? Hey, just like me. We’re like brothers, swimless friend!
I rented it, and the deal was that if I fell in battle… Well, never mind.  


And you know what? We both can’t get to Zora’s Domain either.
I need to get it back to him, but I seem to be…stuck here.  


If only we had some kind of, er, what’s it called? A special ability…? Then we could get to Zora’s Domain.
So, return this for me, would you?


It wouldn’t matter that we can’t swim!
Who could have guessed that this would be my fate-to stand here while you save the world?


Our queen is so wondrous! I couldn’t bear it if I never saw her smile again…
Still, I have my place. You have yours. You must rescue the Seven Sages, Link!


What a special ability! That’s about as special as they come!


Oh, looks like you have one of those-whaddya call it-special abilities. Hmm.


You’re a surprise, aren’t you?
Irene:


The queen, the queen! Please help, somebody! HELP!
Whoa! Hold up a second, greenie!


The queen is in a sea of trouble! We’ve got to do something!  
Yeah, I’m talking to you! Someone else wearing the green hat?


But what? That guy doesn’t even KNOW all the trouble he just caused!
Who am I? Haven’t heard of me? I’m Irene, best witch of my generation!
It’s getting worse by the second!


I can’t believe that guy came in and stole the smooth gem right out from under our gills!
Still a junior witch, but whatever.


That finless jerk probably though it was just some sparkly thing! But the queen needs it to contain her power!
All right. Get this, I had my fortune told this morning, right?


Without that smooth gem, our queen will keep-!
And I was told I’d soon be visited by disaster. DISASTER!


She’ll keep bloating up!
But if I want to change my future, I should take care of…green. I was like, GREEN?


But our poor queen…
What, I should take care of the grass? I’m not mowing every lawn in Hyrule! Forget that. I’m a witch on the rise!
 
And then you came along-and then it all made sense. I’ve got to take care of you, greenie.


We’ve got to get that smooth gem back, or else!
So here. Take this thing.


You must have seen that guy run out with the queen’s smooth gem, right?
Been seeing those weather vanes all over the place? Just ring that bell, and I’ll fly you to any ones you’ve found.


We’ve GOT to get it back! Stranger, if you see a big, gleaming, golden gemstone, bring it back here.  
Normally I don’t take passengers, but I’d rather haul you all over Hyrule than face disaster.  


I’m sure you’d get a nice reward!
Anyway, gotta fly. I have errands to run for my gram. Later!  


Please, stranger! Can you get the queen’s smooth gem back?
Oh, right. One more thing. My gram’s a world-class potion brewer. Her shop is behind the Eastern Palace.


We’ve got to get it back in her poor before all is lost!
I’d strongly suggest you go look her up. Her potions can’t be beat.
See? I’m looking out for you already, greenie.


The smooth gem is rarer than rare! Someone could get a high price for that.
Hey, you’re roaming around here, huh? Been to the fortune-teller over there yet?


Hmm… If anyone was going to make off with that stone, WE should’ve done it first.
He’s always got good info about what’s to come. So if you’re lost or stuck…? Go chat with him.
   
   
Gah-what am I thinking? I can’t let the queen hear that sort of talk!
If you find yourself stuck, don’t forget to have your fortune told. See, I just can’t HELP helping you!


She’s just plain stuck until we get her smooth gem back somehow. Our poor queen…
Hey, nice bell-ringing there. You’re a natural!


Wait, stranger! Do you have the queen’s smooth gem?!
Hold tight so you don’t fall. See? I’m looking out for you big time!


Throw it in the pool-hurry!
Yeah, yeah. I heard you. Clang, clang. I was busy helping my gram!


That’s not very funny, stranger!
Ever confused about where to go next? My gram isn’t big on it, but I swear by fortune-telling.


Th-the queen!
Had yours done? It works-really! So stop by the fortune-teller near the forest.


The bloating has stopped!
I know my fortune said to take care of green, but that bell is doing a job on my noggin.


What a relief!
Are you REALLY the green thing I’m supposed to be taking care of? Cuz you look like you’re doing just fine.


The queen’s bloating stopped.  
Well, whatever. Nice to see you now and then.  


I wish the queen would do away with the poor and that magical gem.
I hope you appreciate this. You know I’ve got a life of my own, right?
 
Things to do? Places to fly? But it looks like you’re having a rough slog, so no problem.
   
   
Oooh, the smooth gem is back!
…


If I could only touch it… Just once!
H-hey! You came to rescue me? Well, I…I don’t know what to say, Link!


Nice weather today, so I swam here with the queen. But she swims so fast…and I got left behind.
But, uh, HEY! My fortune came true after all!


I’m hurt, to be honest. The queen left me behind…
You took your sweet time getting here, didn’t you?! I was in big trouble! And I’ve got to get back to my gram!


I feel abandoned.
That’s all right. I forgive you. Just don’t take that long to rescue me next time.  
My queen… My queen…


The queen and her attendants have gone out for a swim in the lake.
And don’t make any of the other Sages wait that long either. C’mon get to saving the rest!
I could get used to this guard-duty thing. There’s not much to do! The queen swims so fast…`


It’s impossible to keep up with her!
What…? Want more thanks? Tell you what, Link.


The queen’s been gone a long time. She should have come back from her swim by now.  
Save all seven of us Sages, then I’ll write a big, long thank-you letter. But for now…? Just be careful, OK?


They’re late. Too late.
Hey, Irene here! Did I scare ya?


Just follow the river down to the lake. Swim around for a bit, see what’s what, and then come back.  
So, uh…thanks for helping me.  


I shudder to think that something awful’s happened to the queen…
And this whole thing about me being a Sage? Some kind of special girl? Wow, big surprise.
Wish I could leave where I am now, but I’ll have to keep sending my broom.


You know, I really miss my gram. Can’t wait to see her again.


I am REALLY fired up right now just thinking about how this weird jerk Yuga caused all this!


Rosso:
You’d better hold on tight!


Urggh! These rocks! Real pain in the neck!
Did you get those eerie glasses from the fortune-teller? They let you see ghosts!


Huh? A customer?
Neat. And creepy. But mostly neat.
Hey! Have you met Mother Maiamai yet? I hope so. I’ve heard that if you help her, she’ll do nice things for you.


Hey, you’re that kid who works for the blacksmith, right?
I’m a li’l jealous how much she can help you out. She’s got POWER.


Decided you’ve had enough of that place, huh? Here to be MY apprentice, maybe?
My broom will have to do. Off you go!


Grah-ha-ha! Just joking! I wouldn’t do that to your master.  
Aren’t you tired? Look, I’m delighted to give you a lift, but don’t forget to rest sometimes.
Hey, you lost? Confused about where to go next? Here’s a suggestion: head to the fortune-teller.  


I was on the mountain mining ore when, all of a sudden, the earth started shaking!
He knows ALL.


When I got home, the place was a wreck. Rocks everywhere.
Listen, I know you saved me and all, but think you might be overusing the ol’ broom here?


You seen outside? I’ll be bustin’ my back for days to clean up that mess.  
All right, Irene’s Taxi here. That’ll be 9,999 Rupees.  


At least pickin’ up rocks and smashin’ the things feels pretty good. Wish they were full of good ore, though.  
Nah, just messing with your head. I couldn’t take money from you. So buckle up.  


What? You want to try too? Rah! Feels good smashin’ stuff!
That BELL-! Why didn’t I give you something easier on the ears?


Huh? Can’t do it?
Hey, speaking of flying, did you know there are some places you can only reach with a Cucco?


Sorry to hear it. Can’t stand to see a nice kid like you not be able to throw your weight around…
You’re really waring out my poor li’l broom. You’d better buy me a new one once I’m out of here.
Otherwise, uh…how will I give you more rides?


Here-take this. It’s a hand-me-down from yours truly.  
You getting tired? Maybe you should get my gram to brew you a potion. I recommend the yellow stuff.  


You’ll feel tough with that on your mitt-oughta be able to pick up rocks! Smaller ones, anyway.
Isn’t your sword that legendary Master Sword or something?


And if you get to smashin’ and just can’t stop yourself, well, there’s a whole bunch of them outside!
I’ve heard it shoots out a beam when you’re at full health. That right?


Grah-ha-ha! Just a joke, that’s all. I wouldn’t REALLY tell ya to do all my work out there.  
Sounds more like a wand to me. Well, whatever gets the job done.  


Still, if you do…who am I to stop ya?
You’re lucky getting to go to so many different places. I hate being stuck. You know, just in general.


Now, these rocks aren’t gonna clean themselves up. Back to it!
You look like you’re used to battle. But don’t let your guard down. And, hey, here’s a tip about bottles.  


And tell that ol’ smithy master of yours I said hello.  
You know you can keep more than just potions and fairies in them? Yeah, apples and hearts too.  


Guys like us just gotta smash rocks now and then, right?
So do that. It’ll keep you from keeling over. No one wants to see you get hurt. 


Wh-where have all those darned rocks got to?
Uh, you know what my gram says? It’s good to walk. Stop to smell the roses. Pick up monster parts.
I wonder how she’s doing… Miss my gram.


Oh-ho!
I’ve been worried about how Princess Zelda is doing… Let’s get flying!  


You went ahead and did the job for me! I gotta thank you for all that.
Is it just me, or are there TONS of monsters around right now?


Come on in, OK?
Probably a good idea to pack some purple potion. My gram can brew up some for you.


Glad to share what’s in that chest with you. You earned it, kid!


Treasure Hunter:


Oren:
…Now, how’s all this going to work?


Get me-! Get me OUT of here!
This place has so many levels… Time for some three-dimensional thinking.
So once that’s done, sure, that treasure will be mine!


Are you the one who helped me?
There seem to be lots of empty chests around the kingdom.
I’m starting to think I’m not the only treasure hunter hereabouts.


Thanks to you, I’m free of my pool. That was all rather undignified.  
Maybe jump off the ledge. Oh, better be holding a Cucco too! Right. That part’s important.
Yeah, then that treasure will be mine!


Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Oren, Queen of the Zoras.
That block’s moving between there…and there… Gotta time it right.
   
   
I don’t know how I came to rely on that troublesome smooth gem. But I do need it, so I thank you deeply.
Step on the floor switch, then hit the two round switches…


I am filled with gratitude. Please take these, won’t you?
Well, that seems simple. Just need a bit of a breather first.  


They will allow you to swim and dive so you may travel the rivers and roam the lakes.  
Dang. If I only had a sense of timing, that treasure would have been mine!


But my Zoras do consider that their territory, and while I tell them to get along with people…
Use the Hookshot to fly at that wall. Uh, then press (A button) the moment I reach it? Right. That’s it.


I have to admit, they just don’t listen. So be careful out there.  
Well, I worked it out. But it’s too bad my stomach gets all oogie when it comes to heights.  


I’m sorry you had to hear us in such an uproar.
Yes, yes, I’m a professional treasure hunter. I can’t go anywhere without being recognized.  


Having a tough time here, though. If only I could manipulate sand and wind, then I…


Racing Bro:
Well, let’s just say I’d be able to secure myself a nice little piece of treasure here…


Step right up, and try your feet at Hyrule Hotfoot! It’s a mad dash for the finish!
Don’t you worry about it, though, kid. Just leave it to the professionals. I’ll figure this one out soon enough!


Put those feet of yours to the test, fella. I can tell you’re fleet of foot. I bet you’ll burn up the tracks!


The entry fee is 20 Rupees. If you make it to the finish, you’ll get an excellent prize.


Ready for this?
Zora Underling:


Born ready
The bridge is broken. Some guy just dashed by and jumped it, though. Me, I could never do that.


The finish is behind the miner’s place. I’ll mark it on your map with a flag.  
I suppose there’s nothing to do but swim to Zora’s Domain.  


My brother is standing at the finish, so talk to him when you get there. OK, you have 75 seconds!
What’d you say? You can’t swim? Hey, just like me. We’re like brothers, swimless friend!


All set?
And you know what? We both can’t get to Zora’s Domain either.


Ready…
If only we had some kind of, er, what’s it called? A special ability…? Then we could get to Zora’s Domain.


Nope
It wouldn’t matter that we can’t swim!


No worries. Come back when you feel like a run. I’ll be here.
Our queen is so wondrous! I couldn’t bear it if I never saw her smile again…
Uh, you know you’ll run out of time if you don’t hurry, right?


Time’s up…
What a special ability! That’s about as special as they come!


Hey, don’t take it too hard. No doubt you’ll nail it next time, buddy.  
Oh, looks like you have one of those-whaddya call it-special abilities. Hmm.  


Look at that determination. You want to try again right away, right?  
You’re a surprise, aren’t you?


You got it
The queen, the queen! Please help, somebody! HELP!


That’s the spirit. Let’s get those feet of yours back in action.
The queen is in a sea of trouble! We’ve got to do something!


Nope
But what? That guy doesn’t even KNOW all the trouble he just caused!
It’s getting worse by the second!


Oh, all right. Rest up and try again later.
I can’t believe that guy came in and stole the smooth gem right out from under our gills!


How about you give it another try? Check in with my little brother at the starting point.
That finless jerk probably though it was just some sparkly thing! But the queen needs it to contain her power!


What, unless it’s too much trouble to hightail it all the way back there?
Without that smooth gem, our queen will keep-!
Yeah


You tell it like it is, don’t you?
She’ll keep bloating up!


OK! Off you go then! Show us your best shot! Take it to the limits!
But our poor queen…


No
We’ve got to get that smooth gem back, or else!


Oh, sorry. Thought your dogs might be complainin’ there. My mistake. OK, can’t wait to see you try again.
You must have seen that guy run out with the queen’s smooth gem, right?


Congrats! You made it! And with a time of (x) seconds!
We’ve GOT to get it back! Stranger, if you see a big, gleaming, golden gemstone, bring it back here.


The prize you’ve been waiting for is…THIS!
I’m sure you’d get a nice reward!


You should try the intermediate challenge next!
Please, stranger! Can you get the queen’s smooth gem back?


Ready for some Hyrule Hotfoot? I bet a primo racer like you can handle a tougher challenge!
We’ve got to get it back in her poor before all is lost!


This time we’re bumping up the challenge-6 5 seconds!
The smooth gem is rarer than rare! Someone could get a high price for that.


Those are some fleet feet you have there, buddy-put mine to shame.
Hmm… If anyone was going to make off with that stone, WE should’ve done it first.
Gah-what am I thinking? I can’t let the queen hear that sort of talk!


I bet if you really go all out, you’d knock the socks off my little brother and me. Can’t wait to see that!
She’s just plain stuck until we get her smooth gem back somehow. Our poor queen…


Ready for some Hyrule Hotfoot? Come on-time to show my brother and me what you’ve got. Pour on the speed!
Wait, stranger! Do you have the queen’s smooth gem?!


This time we’ll give you an advance challenge-(x) seconds!
Throw it in the pool-hurry!


You’re really something else. No way we could ever touch your times, Link. Whooeee!
That’s not very funny, stranger!


Th-the queen!


Runaway Item Seller:
The bloating has stopped!


Eeeee! I didn’t do it! Or maybe I did! Whatever. I’m just sorry either way!
What a relief!


Who are you? Did my wife send you to find me?
The queen’s bloating stopped.


I sealed up the opening nice and tight. There wasn’t even a crack, so how’d you get in here?
I wish the queen would do away with the poor and that magical gem.
Oooh, the smooth gem is back!


Y-y-you’re not here to bring me back to the village, are you?
If I could only touch it… Just once!


Uh, then how about h-h-helping me out with something? I mean, if it isn’t t-t-too much trouble?
Nice weather today, so I swam here with the queen. But she swims so fast…and I got left behind.


Sure
I’m hurt, to be honest. The queen left me behind…


R-r-really?!
I feel abandoned.
My queen… My queen…


S-so here’s the thing: I run the item shop in Kakariko Village.  
The queen and her attendants have gone out for a swim in the lake.
I could get used to this guard-duty thing. There’s not much to do! The queen swims so fast…`


Or, uh, I did. Until I wasted almost all of my profits on something dumb. Well, it didn’t SEEM dumb at first.
It’s impossible to keep up with her!


I bought an apple from the street merchant outside my shop.  
The queen’s been gone a long time. She should have come back from her swim by now.  


It looks so tasty, I gave him almost every Rupee I had. B-b-but you’d do the same thing too, right?
They’re late. Too late.  


Sure
Just follow the river down to the lake. Swim around for a bit, see what’s what, and then come back.


What? You would?
I shudder to think that something awful’s happened to the queen…


Anyway, about that apple… I ate it right away, right? And it was the best apple EVER.


Worth every Rupee for sure.


Unfortunately, my wife didn’t see things that way. She really let me have it.
Rosso:


And wow, how my wife can yell when she thinks she’s right.
Urggh! These rocks! Real pain in the neck!


Er, I guess she WAS right. It was most of our savings, after all.
Huh? A customer?


So, uh, and I’m not proud of this…but when I took a lunch break, I just sort of didn’t come back.
Hey, you’re that kid who works for the blacksmith, right?


See? That’s my sad story. Could happen to anyone, right?
Decided you’ve had enough of that place, huh? Here to be MY apprentice, maybe?


Only you
Grah-ha-ha! Just joking! I wouldn’t do that to your master.


…You sound just like my wife.
I was on the mountain mining ore when, all of a sudden, the earth started shaking!


You seem like you’re really sure of yourself there.  
When I got home, the place was a wreck. Rocks everywhere.  


I’ve been thinking that I’ve got to hide myself away until I really sort it all out.  
You seen outside? I’ll be bustin’ my back for days to clean up that mess.  


Maybe in some secluded dungeon! But I know those places are dangerous without the right gear.  
At least pickin’ up rocks and smashin’ the things feels pretty good. Wish they were full of good ore, though.  


Like a Scoot Fruit! Yeah, I need one of those before I go. Please get me one!
What? You want to try too? Rah! Feels good smashin’ stuff!  


Whoa. I see you’ve got yourself a Scoot Fruit!
Huh? Can’t do it?


Could you let me have that? I really need a Scoot Fruit!
Sorry to hear it. Can’t stand to see a nice kid like you not be able to throw your weight around…


Sure
Here-take this. It’s a hand-me-down from yours truly.


Thank you so much! Here- take this as thanks.  
You’ll feel tough with that on your mitt-oughta be able to pick up rocks! Smaller ones, anyway.  


With this, there’s nothing to be afraid of… There’s not, is there?
And if you get to smashin’ and just can’t stop yourself, well, there’s a whole bunch of them outside!


Or is there?
Grah-ha-ha! Just a joke, that’s all. I wouldn’t REALLY tell ya to do all my work out there.


Er, first I’ll need to gather up the courage to even go into a dungeon… Breathe in… Breathe out…
Still, if you do…who am I to stop ya?


Breathe in… OK, all better.
Now, these rocks aren’t gonna clean themselves up. Back to it!


Nope
And tell that ol’ smithy master of yours I said hello.


Y-y-you’re not as cool as I thought!
Guys like us just gotta smash rocks now and then, right?


Of course
Wh-where have all those darned rocks got to?


R-r-really? To anyone? That makes me f-f-feel a little better.
Oh-ho!


You’ve got it all figured out, don’t you?
You went ahead and did the job for me! I gotta thank you for all that.


Never
Come on in, OK?


OK, OK. Th-that’s cool.
Glad to share what’s in that chest with you. You earned it, kid!


No
Well, just look at this. Who would have thought I’d see YOU here, Link?


Yeah, I don’t blame you. I…uh…I wouldn’t help me either.  
Not all that surprised to see me here though. I’ve known for a long time that I was a Sage.  


Huh. M-m-maybe I should just stick around here. Or maybe I’ll go to a dungeon after all.  
Never told anyone though. It wasn’t really a secret. I was just too busy mining all the time to mention it.  


I don’t know! But at least I have that Scoot Fruit of yours now. That’ll be my backup plan.  
Speaking of busy-you’ve still got some work to do here. Find the rest of the Seven Sages, OK?


If you do, you’ll be all the stronger, Link.


Bouldering Guy:
Hmm, the Master Sword looks different somehow.


Whoa, buddy! Great job. Not the easiest thing getting up here!
Oh, I get it. The blacksmith tempered it for you, huh? Where’d he scare up such fine ore to do that?


Who, me? Just out here bouldering. You know, climbing mountains. Sounds cooler to say bouldering.
Well, just be glad he did that for you. Say hi to him for me the next time you see him, OK?


Whoa! What’s with that weird, smudgy glow around Hyrule Castle?


What’s going on over there? Can’t be good, whatever it is.


What happened down at the castle? It’s so far down there. I just can’t make it out very well…
Oren:


Ugh, how embarrassing…
Get me-! Get me OUT of here!


I was bouldering along just fine when I slipped and fell. I twisted my ankle. Now I’m stuck.
Are you the one who helped me?


Ha! No way! You really found my letter in a bottle?
Thanks to you, I’m free of my pool. That was all rather undignified.


I threw that out to the lake! Yeah, always had a good arm. But wait. Didn’t you read it?
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Oren, Queen of the Zoras.
I don’t know how I came to rely on that troublesome smooth gem. But I do need it, so I thank you deeply.  


I’m desperate for some tasty premium milk up here.  
I am filled with gratitude. Please take these, won’t you?


I gotta get some of that, or I’m never going to get off this hunk of rock.  
They will allow you to swim and dive so you may travel the rivers and roam the lakes.  


Not a bad way to end my days, being a boulderer and all.
But my Zoras do consider that their territory, and while I tell them to get along with people…


But still, what I wouldn’t do for a drink of premium milk from the Milk Bar.  
I have to admit, they just don’t listen. So be careful out there.  


Hey, guy. W-w-wait! Is that what I THINK it is?
I’m sorry you had to hear us in such an uproar.


Milk?! Ice-cold milk!


And not just any milk, but some premium milk? GIMME!
Racing Bro:


Ahhh!
Step right up, and try your feet at Hyrule Hotfoot! It’s a mad dash for the finish!


That really hit the spot-best milk in the kingdom, right? Uh, wait. Oops. Did I drink the whole thing?
Put those feet of yours to the test, fella. I can tell you’re fleet of foot. I bet you’ll burn up the tracks!


Sorry, friend. And after you came all this way. Well, how about doing me another favor?
The entry fee is 20 Rupees. If you make it to the finish, you’ll get an excellent prize.  


Here, take this garbage away.
Ready for this?


Don’t want to leave trash on the mountain, right?
Born ready


OK, my ankle’s all spiffed up now that I’ve had some premium milk.  
The finish is behind the miner’s place. I’ll mark it on your map with a flag.  


Still, going to take it slow before I head back down. Thanks again! You’re a boulderer’s best bud.
My brother is standing at the finish, so talk to him when you get there. OK, you have 75 seconds!


Hey, you there. Thanks for your help before!
All set?


I really gotta say thanks. I wouldn’t have ever tasted this creamy milk without your assistance.
Ready…


Nope


Mother Maiamai:
No worries. Come back when you feel like a run. I’ll be here.
Uh, you know you’ll run out of time if you don’t hurry, right?


My, oh, my! What business have you with Mother Maiamai? Forgive me if my spirits aren’t flying so high.
Time’s up…


We were on a great voyage through all the worlds, my tykes and I…
Hey, don’t take it too hard. No doubt you’ll nail it next time, buddy.


Then I lost sight of my little Maiamais! All 100 of my babies, by and by!
Look at that determination. You want to try again right away, right?


Could you find all of them? You’ll hear my children crying-calling for their Mother Maiamai!
You got it


        Of course
That’s the spirit. Let’s get those feet of yours back in action.


Can’t do it
Nope


I’d search for them myself. I swear that I’d try. But in this world, I’m just too large to find my little guys.  
Oh, all right. Rest up and try again later.  


Why, oh, why? Mother Maiamai would be in your debt forever, if only you’d try!
How about you give it another try? Check in with my little brother at the starting point.


I’ll do it
What, unless it’s too much trouble to hightail it all the way back there?
Yeah


Thanks! Mother Maiamai finds you quite a kind child.
You tell it like it is, don’t you?


Here-take this. It will help you know if my tykes are nearby.
OK! Off you go then! Show us your best shot! Take it to the limits!


Oh, yes-upon the Maiamai Map you can surely rely!
No


Go on-tap the Maiamai Map icon on your Touch Screen!
Oh, sorry. Thought your dogs might be complainin’ there. My mistake. OK, can’t wait to see you try again.


Those numbers tell you how many of my little Maiamais are in each area.
Congrats! You made it! And with a time of (x) seconds!


At least until you rescue some, and then it will tell you only how many more you have yet to find!
The prize you’ve been waiting for is…THIS!


Now please, go and search for all my Maiamais!
You should try the intermediate challenge next!


They call out with such cute, chirping sounds. Yet they must be so sad, missing their Mother Maiamai.
Ready for some Hyrule Hotfoot? I bet a primo racer like you can handle a tougher challenge!


Sorry
This time we’re bumping up the challenge-6 5 seconds!


My babies are so shy. You might not even see them when you walk by.  
Those are some fleet feet you have there, buddy-put mine to shame.  


You can hear them cry, so please find out where they all hide!
I bet if you really go all out, you’d knock the socks off my little brother and me. Can’t wait to see that!


I knew you’d be able to help me. Thank you-oh, thank you!
Ready for some Hyrule Hotfoot? Come on-time to show my brother and me what you’ve got. Pour on the speed!


If you bring me your items, I’ll give you a nice reward-yes, oh so nice!
This time we’ll give you an advance challenge-(x) seconds!


But I can’t work my magic on items you don’t own. Nothing lent-only your true possessions!
You’re really something else. No way we could ever touch your times, Link. Whooeee!




Bird Lover:
Runaway Item Seller:


Wh-what gives? I was playing with those birds! You don’t like my feathered friends?
Eeeee! I didn’t do it! Or maybe I did! Whatever. I’m just sorry either way!


I like birds
Who are you? Did my wife send you to find me?


The joyful way they fly around always lifts my spirits. I’d love to fly just once.  
I sealed up the opening nice and tight. There wasn’t even a crack, so how’d you get in here?


I don’t like them
Y-y-you’re not here to bring me back to the village, are you?


Hey, come now. There’s a lot more to birds than you might think.
Uh, then how about h-h-helping me out with something? I mean, if it isn’t t-t-too much trouble?
They look so carefree, but who knows what’s REALLY going on inside those little noggins of theirs? I love that.


You need something?
Sure


Nothing
R-r-really?!


Hmm…
S-so here’s the thing: I run the item shop in Kakariko Village.


You came to such an out-of-the-way place for no reason?
Or, uh, I did. Until I wasted almost all of my profits on something dumb. Well, it didn’t SEEM dumb at first.


You know, this bottle washed up here a little ways back. And now you come on by. Exciting day for me!
I bought an apple from the street merchant outside my shop.  


TOO much excitement. I gotta admit. I like things to stay nice and simple. Just me and the birds here.
It looks so tasty, I gave him almost every Rupee I had. B-b-but you’d do the same thing too, right?


So do me a favor. Take this bottle with you. It’ll do my nerves good.
Sure


Let’s talk
What? You would?


Hmm... You came to such an out-of-the-way place to chat with me?
Anyway, about that apple… I ate it right away, right? And it was the best apple EVER.


The world above, up on the bridge…? I’m glad to let it all go right on by. Less I have to do with it, the better.  
Worth every Rupee for sure.  


Unfortunately, my wife didn’t see things that way. She really let me have it.


Rumor Guy:
And wow, how my wife can yell when she thinks she’s right.


Heh. I know you. You’re that little Link, right?
Er, I guess she WAS right. It was most of our savings, after all.


I saw that shooty chain thing you used to get in here. Looks fun.  
So, uh, and I’m not proud of this…but when I took a lunch break, I just sort of didn’t come back.  


Heh. Looks like you’ve gotten used to swinging a sword around, Link.
See? That’s my sad story. Could happen to anyone, right?
Huh? Going home? That’s a shame. Lots of stuff I could tell you. Interesting stuff. Heh.


Heh, heh! Want some gossip?
Only you


Tell me.
…You sound just like my wife.  


Forget it.  
You seem like you’re really sure of yourself there.  


Well, pardon me for existing. Am I in your way here? Do I need to move? Is there anything I can do for you?
I’ve been thinking that I’ve got to hide myself away until I really sort it all out.


So you like to know other people’s secrets! Whom do you want to know about? Ask away.  
Maybe in some secluded dungeon! But I know those places are dangerous without the right gear.  


The witch.  
Like a Scoot Fruit! Yeah, I need one of those before I go. Please get me one!


OK, WELL…
Whoa. I see you’ve got yourself a Scoot Fruit!


You’ve heard about the witch, right?
Could you let me have that? I really need a Scoot Fruit!


That old crone used to have a little bit of a thing for the fortune-teller. And you know how THAT goes.
Sure


It just wasn’t in the cards…or the crystal ball, I guess.
Thank you so much! Here- take this as thanks.  
When the fortune-teller got sick, she brewed him up a potion. Nothing better than homemade stuff, ya know?


But she dropped it off in his mailbox on the sly. Bashful, that old girl. Warms the heart. Truly does. Ha!
With this, there’s nothing to be afraid of… There’s not, is there?


So then, later on, the witch actually goes and visits the fortune-teller to get her fortune, right?
Or is there?


Well, I’m not one to gossip…
Er, first I’ll need to gather up the courage to even go into a dungeon… Breathe in… Breathe out…


What happened?
Breathe in… OK, all better.


So, the witch is at the fortune-teller’s place-you’ve been there, yeah?
Nope


So, he does a show with his hands and says, “But I see… I see…a man that you fancy! His face is cloudy…
Y-y-you’re not as cool as I thought!


“He does not return your affections! There is no future for the two of you.”
Of course


You believe that? What a fool! He couldn’t even tell that he was looking at himself! That poor woman…
R-r-really? To anyone? That makes me f-f-feel a little better.


Never thought I’d feel bad for a witch! Now you’ve heard it. Go on, now. That gossip ain’t gonna spread itself!
You’ve got it all figured out, don’t you?


I don’t care.
Never


Princess Zelda.
OK, OK. Th-that’s cool.  


Oh, that princess… She’s quite an interesting one, let me tell you. You wanna hear something juicy?
No


When we reach a certain age, even the princess comes to a point where she has love on her mind, right…?
Yeah, I don’t blame you. I…uh…I wouldn’t help me either.


Of course!
Huh. M-m-maybe I should just stick around here. Or maybe I’ll go to a dungeon after all.


OK, WELL…
I don’t know! But at least I have that Scoot Fruit of yours now. That’ll be my backup plan.


You didn’t hear it from me, but every night the princess goes on a little excursion inside the castle.


Her maids say that she’s secretly meeting someone. Apparently, she’s not very good at the “secretly” part.
Bouldering Guy:


So, one night, someone gave in to the delicious temptation of curiosity and decided to follow the princess…
Whoa, buddy! Great job. Not the easiest thing getting up here!


And guess what happened!
Who, me? Just out here bouldering. You know, climbing mountains. Sounds cooler to say bouldering.


What happened?
Whoa! What’s with that weird, smudgy glow around Hyrule Castle?


The princess stopped in front of a large painting on display in the center of the castle.  
What’s going on over there? Can’t be good, whatever it is.


And she stood there just staring up at the painting for 10 minutes. And then went back to her room. Just like that!
What happened down at the castle? It’s so far down there. I just can’t make it out very well…


So when the person following her went to inspect the painting… You’ll never guess what happened!
Ugh, how embarrassing…


That painting…?
I was bouldering along just fine when I slipped and fell. I twisted my ankle. Now I’m stuck.


What?
Ha! No way! You really found my letter in a bottle?  


This painting was of a hero and princess from several generations ago cuddling in one another’s arms…
I threw that out to the lake! Yeah, always had a good arm. But wait. Didn’t you read it?


This person following her-it wasn’t me, I swear-continued to follow her every night! Creepy.  
I’m desperate for some tasty premium milk up here.  


And it was the same thing every time! Princess Zelda would just stare at that picture night after night…
I gotta get some of that, or I’m never going to get off this hunk of rock.


Not a very exciting end, I suppose. Maybe that’s not so juicy after all. Oh well. They can’t all be overripe fruit!
Not a bad way to end my days, being a boulderer and all.  


The painting brought out a look of such admiration that had never been seen before in the princess.  
But still, what I wouldn’t do for a drink of premium milk from the Milk Bar.  


Now you’ve heard it. Go on, now. That gossip ain’t gonna spread itself!
Hey, guy. W-w-wait! Is that what I THINK it is?


I don’t care.
Milk?! Ice-cold milk!


*YAWN*
And not just any milk, but some premium milk? GIMME!


Eh. Don’t care.
Ahhh!


Gramps.
That really hit the spot-best milk in the kingdom, right? Uh, wait. Oops. Did I drink the whole thing?


You wanna hear about ol’ Gramps, eh…?
Sorry, friend. And after you came all this way. Well, how about doing me another favor?


Well, this one isn’t a rumor. It’s something I actually saw with my own two peepers.  
Here, take this garbage away.  


But I probably shouldn’t say anything. You know me-I’m not one to gossip.
Don’t want to leave trash on the mountain, right?


I might get in trouble if I told you. But on the other hand, If you really want to know, I mean…
OK, my ankle’s all spiffed up now that I’ve had some premium milk.  


OK, WELL…
Still, going to take it slow before I head back down. Thanks again! You’re a boulderer’s best bud.


So, Gramps in Kakariko Village? Near the town square? He’s 80 years old, or so he says.  
Hey, you there. Thanks for your help before!


I don’t think he’s just some ordinary old man who’s just hangin’ around…
I really gotta say thanks. I wouldn’t have ever tasted this creamy milk without your assistance.


So, this one time, I saw him at the crack of dawn. You’ll never guess what he was doing!


Cucco-calling.
Mother Maiamai:


Well, he’s always doing that.
My, oh, my! What business have you with Mother Maiamai? Forgive me if my spirits aren’t flying so high.  
I don’t know how you knew that, but that’s not the weird part…


Handstands?
We were on a great voyage through all the worlds, my tykes and I…


Yes! Handstands!
Then I lost sight of my little Maiamais! All 100 of my babies, by and by!


So you saw him too, Link?!
Could you find all of them? You’ll hear my children crying-calling for their Mother Maiamai!


Eating dirt.
        Of course
Yeah! Isn’t that, um…odd?


NO! He was not doing that. That would be so bad for you teeth, I think…
Can’t do it


He was doing handstands! Not any ordinary handstands.  
I’d search for them myself. I swear that I’d try. But in this world, I’m just too large to find my little guys.  


One-fingered handstands! Really! I saw it!
Why, oh, why? Mother Maiamai would be in your debt forever, if only you’d try!


Either he’s doing a sort of intense physical training or he’s got some secret abilities he’s hiding.
I’ll do it


But I don’t want to be on that guy’s bad side, so I didn’t tell you nuthin’!
Thanks! Mother Maiamai finds you quite a kind child.


Now you’ve heard it. Go on, now. That gossip ain’t gonna spread itself!
Here-take this. It will help you know if my tykes are nearby.  


Lost Woods Poes:
Oh, yes-upon the Maiamai Map you can surely rely!


Hree hee hee! Welcome to the Lost Woods!
Go on-tap the Maiamai Map icon on your Touch Screen!


These woods will trick you into going back the way you came!
Those numbers tell you how many of my little Maiamais are in each area.


But all hope is not lost! If you can follow me, then you can walk a little deeper into the woods.
At least until you rescue some, and then it will tell you only how many more you have yet to find!


Watch carefully!
Now please, go and search for all my Maiamais!


Oh, well done.  
They call out with such cute, chirping sounds. Yet they must be so sad, missing their Mother Maiamai.  


That was fun, but now we’re going to MISLEAD you. Now two of us will bounce around.
Sorry


So don’t follow the two of us, or you’ll wind up back at the start!
My babies are so shy. You might not even see them when you walk by.


Hree hee hee! Think you can get it right?
You can hear them cry, so please find out where they all hide!


Oh, very well done! Hmph. I guess it’s time to REALLY stump you!
I knew you’d be able to help me. Thank you-oh, thank you!


Now three of us will bounce around. Don’t follow us!
If you bring me your items, I’ll give you a nice reward-yes, oh so nice!


Hree hee hee! Think you can get it right?
But I can’t work my magic on items you don’t own. Nothing lent-only your true possessions!




Bird Lover:


Hilda:
Wh-what gives? I was playing with those birds! You don’t like my feathered friends?


Oh, Hero of Hyrule, I can hold the beast at bay for only so long.
I like birds


It should prove enough time to bid you a most sorrowful welcome to my kingdom. Welcome to Lorule.  
The joyful way they fly around always lifts my spirits. I’d love to fly just once.  


My name is Princess Hilda, and I have failed you in every way.
I don’t like them


I knew Yuga planned to slip into your world to abduct Zelda and the Sages. I…I couldn’t stop him.  
Hey, come now. There’s a lot more to birds than you might think.
They look so carefree, but who knows what’s REALLY going on inside those little noggins of theirs? I love that.  


Now he has used them to summon the Demon King and siphon his power.
You need something?


Yuga’s appetite will soon consume our worlds. Hyrule and Lorule-the beast’s for the taking.
Nothing


I cannot hold him back much longer. So… I must see you to safety.
Hmm…
Ah, here we are… A moment more of safety, Link.


Though Yuga is slipping his bonds, I will try to keep you safe from him as long as I can.
You came to such an out-of-the-way place for no reason?


I’m afraid I must ask you to do what I cannot-defeat the beast.  
You know, this bottle washed up here a little ways back. And now you come on by. Exciting day for me!


To do that, you must awaken your full potential, Hero of Hyrule.
TOO much excitement. I gotta admit. I like things to stay nice and simple. Just me and the birds here.  
I sense that the paintings of Hyrule’s Seven Sages are being sent to the far corners of Lorule.
You must steal those paintings back. The secret to Yuga’s defeat lies in uniting your friends!


Farewell, Hero of Hyrule… We shall meet again…
So do me a favor. Take this bottle with you. It’ll do my nerves good.


Can you hear me, Hero of Hyrule?
Let’s talk


It is I, Princess Hilda. I wanted to warn you about the kingdom in which you’ve found yourself.
Hmm... You came to such an out-of-the-way place to chat with me?


My Lorule may remind you of your own home. But, in fact, our kingdoms are as different as night and day.  
The world above, up on the bridge…? I’m glad to let it all go right on by. Less I have to do with it, the better.  


Worlds apart, as they say.


But Yuga’s scheme has forced our two kingdoms close together.
Rumor Guy:


So close, they are now connected.
Heh. I know you. You’re that little Link, right?


What’s more, the Seven Sages you seek are spread across my land, locked away in dungeons.  
I saw that shooty chain thing you used to get in here. Looks fun.  


But because parts of Lorule have long crumbled away, you cannot get to them from where you now are.  
Heh. Looks like you’ve gotten used to swinging a sword around, Link.
Huh? Going home? That’s a shame. Lots of stuff I could tell you. Interesting stuff. Heh.  


To reach them, you must first find a way back to Hyrule.
Heh, heh! Want some gossip?


From various parts of your world, you can reach the same parts of mine.  
Tell me.


Now, one more thing.  
Forget it.  


I have welcomed you to Lorule, but my kingdom…? It ISN’T so welcoming to strangers.
Well, pardon me for existing. Am I in your way here? Do I need to move? Is there anything I can do for you?  


Farewell-and be careful out there, Link.  
So you like to know other people’s secrets! Whom do you want to know about? Ask away.  


Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…
The witch.


You are in the area where the Skull Woods strike fear into the hearts of the living.
OK, WELL…


Not that there are many who live her for long. Within the woods are being no longer of this world.
You’ve heard about the witch, right?


But brave them you must, if you are to recover a Sage who is pure of heart. Gather your courage.  
That old crone used to have a little bit of a thing for the fortune-teller. And you know how THAT goes.  


So say I, Hilda of Lorule…
It just wasn’t in the cards…or the crystal ball, I guess.
When the fortune-teller got sick, she brewed him up a potion. Nothing better than homemade stuff, ya know?


Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…
But she dropped it off in his mailbox on the sly. Bashful, that old girl. Warms the heart. Truly does. Ha!


Not far from here is a maze built to contain the power of fire. You must find a way to control the flames.
So then, later on, the witch actually goes and visits the fortune-teller to get her fortune, right?


I also sense a strong presence in this vicinity. No doubt it’s a Sage.
Well, I’m not one to gossip…


Go now. Only you can help. So say I, Hilda of Lorule…
What happened?


Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…
So, the witch is at the fortune-teller’s place-you’ve been there, yeah?


You find yourself near a swamp that is a dread and rotting place.
So, he does a show with his hands and says, “But I see… I see…a man that you fancy! His face is cloudy…
Within it I sense…the very faint presence of a Sage.
And, how odd…I sense also desert sand near this Sage. But there is NO desert in Lorule!


Furthermore, I forsee that you must bring an item into a temple there that will give you control over sand.  
“He does not return your affections! There is no future for the two of you.”


I say again that there is no desert in Lorule. I do sense the start of your path is here though. How baffling.
You believe that? What a fool! He couldn’t even tell that he was looking at himself! That poor woman…


So say I, Hilda of Lorule…
Never thought I’d feel bad for a witch! Now you’ve heard it. Go on, now. That gossip ain’t gonna spread itself!


Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…
I don’t care.


You have entered a truly evil place.  
Princess Zelda.


You must find the Dark Palace. There you will discover a Sage in desperate need of your help.  
Oh, that princess… She’s quite an interesting one, let me tell you. You wanna hear something juicy?


Please…go quickly to the rescue. So say I, Hilda of Lorule…
When we reach a certain age, even the princess comes to a point where she has love on her mind, right…?


You are nearing the Dark Palace. It is home to the followers of a great and terrible beast.
Of course!


They were once soldiers from Lorule Castle. How they revere a foul being and cower here in this temple.
OK, WELL…


I accept the responsibility. I was too weak to protect them. They were all good people…my people.  
You didn’t hear it from me, but every night the princess goes on a little excursion inside the castle.  


If they find you, they will imprison you. Please be careful. So say I, Hilda of Lorule.  
Her maids say that she’s secretly meeting someone. Apparently, she’s not very good at the “secretly” part.  


So, one night, someone gave in to the delicious temptation of curiosity and decided to follow the princess…


And guess what happened!


Blacksmith’s Wife (Lorule):
What happened?


How does this kid expect to survive two seconds in Lorule if he’s-?
The princess stopped in front of a large painting on display in the center of the castle.


Well, well, well… Lookit this! Oh, I’m sorry. Did I wake you?
And she stood there just staring up at the painting for 10 minutes. And then went back to her room. Just like that!


How was your nap?!
So when the person following her went to inspect the painting… You’ll never guess what happened!


Don’t even know why I brought you back. Shoulda just left you there passed out in the middle of the road…
That painting…?


Now that you’re awake and I see you’re OK, you can see yourself to the door. Go on now. Scoot!
What?


Whaddya want this time?! Here I am, taking all this time just to help folks out… Since when did I get so…nice?!
This painting was of a hero and princess from several generations ago cuddling in one another’s arms…


The nerve… Passing out right in the middle of the road and then mumbling that name… What was it? Gulley?
This person following her-it wasn’t me, I swear-continued to follow her every night! Creepy.


Whoever heard of such a name? Even if I had kids, I would never name one Gulley! Now go on! Scoot!
And it was the same thing every time! Princess Zelda would just stare at that picture night after night…


Yeah… You were collapsed in the middle’a the road. AGAIN. So I brought you back here. AGAIN.
Not a very exciting end, I suppose. Maybe that’s not so juicy after all. Oh well. They can’t all be overripe fruit!


I’d appreciate it if you could quit collapsin’ all over the place. Think you could manage that?!
The painting brought out a look of such admiration that had never been seen before in the princess.  


Try to help someone, and they just end up in yer way again! SHEESH!
Now you’ve heard it. Go on, now. That gossip ain’t gonna spread itself!


I don’t care.


Craftsman (Lorule):
*YAWN*


You’re the kid the boss’s wife picked up, eh?
Eh. Don’t care.


I don’t know what I can do for ya. I just work here, y’know what I mean?
Gramps.


I say “work,” but it’s not like we’re all that busy here, y’know?
You wanna hear about ol’ Gramps, eh…?


Well, this one isn’t a rumor. It’s something I actually saw with my own two peepers.


But I probably shouldn’t say anything. You know me-I’m not one to gossip.


Blacksmith (Lorule):
I might get in trouble if I told you. But on the other hand, If you really want to know, I mean…


Are you really running around with a sword like that? Sheesh…
OK, WELL…


I pour my heart and soul into crafting fine weapons, and folks still just battle with whatever they find lying around…
So, Gramps in Kakariko Village? Near the town square? He’s 80 years old, or so he says.


I don’t think he’s just some ordinary old man who’s just hangin’ around…


So, this one time, I saw him at the crack of dawn. You’ll never guess what he was doing!


Witch (Lorule):
Cucco-calling.


I don’t mean to boast about my spicy darling here, but why not? Not everyone’s got a fellow like him.
Well, he’s always doing that.
I don’t know how you knew that, but that’s not the weird part…


He’s handsome AND talented.
Handstands?


Of course you are, darling, and I’m the MOST fortunate witch around!
Yes! Handstands!


Don’t you dare nitpick my darling’s fortunes. He’s always right.
So you saw him too, Link?!


What now? Who’s Irene?
Eating dirt.
Yeah! Isn’t that, um…odd?


Does this have something to do with my darling? If not, I don’t give a wicked fig!
NO! He was not doing that. That would be so bad for you teeth, I think…


He was doing handstands! Not any ordinary handstands.


One-fingered handstands! Really! I saw it!


Fortune-Teller (Lorule):
Either he’s doing a sort of intense physical training or he’s got some secret abilities he’s hiding.


Oh, c’mon, Mapes. You know how I can’t stand compliments…
But I don’t want to be on that guy’s bad side, so I didn’t tell you nuthin’!


Unless you say them right.  
Now you’ve heard it. Go on, now. That gossip ain’t gonna spread itself!


I’m the MOST handsome and talented. Why, I’m the foremost fortune-teller in this world or any other!


I am a reader of fortunes, and I see your future. I’ll tell you what’s to come for 20 Rupees.


Tell me
Lost Woods Poes:


No, thanks
Hree hee hee! Welcome to the Lost Woods!


Are you saying you have no interest in having your fortune told?
These woods will trick you into going back the way you came!


My fortunes can be worth their weight in gold. Especially when you’re feeling particularly stuck in your adventures.  
But all hope is not lost! If you can follow me, then you can walk a little deeper into the woods.  


How may I be of help?
Watch carefully!


Fortune
Oh, well done.


Nothing
That was fun, but now we’re going to MISLEAD you. Now two of us will bounce around.


But if you don’t want to hear, maybe that’s all for the best…
So don’t follow the two of us, or you’ll wind up back at the start!


Oh! So much fortune to tell! It’s like a buffet of fate. I see seven paths before you…
Hree hee hee! Think you can get it right?


Which path would you like to ask about?
Oh, very well done! Hmph. I guess it’s time to REALLY stump you!


Dark Palace
Now three of us will bounce around. Don’t follow us!


I see a place strewn with rocks, east of Hyrule Castle…
Hree hee hee! Think you can get it right?


And I see something odd on a pillar there. I suggest that you investigate.


Swamp Palace


I see an enormous bomb…one that will…follow you?
Hilda:


It is south of Thieves’ Town.  
Oh, Hero of Hyrule, I can hold the beast at bay for only so long.  


Lead it to a shrine surrounded by water, south of Lorule Castle.  
It should prove enough time to bid you a most sorrowful welcome to my kingdom. Welcome to Lorule.  


Skull Woods
My name is Princess Hilda, and I have failed you in every way.


I can see Sahasrahla’s house in Kakariko Village…
I knew Yuga planned to slip into your world to abduct Zelda and the Sages. I…I couldn’t stop him.


And I see something strange on the wall in the back of the house… I suggest that you investigate.  
Now he has used them to summon the Demon King and siphon his power.  


Another path
Yuga’s appetite will soon consume our worlds. Hyrule and Lorule-the beast’s for the taking.


These are the other paths. Which one would you like to ask about?
I cannot hold him back much longer. So… I must see you to safety.
Ah, here we are… A moment more of safety, Link.


Ice Ruins
Though Yuga is slipping his bonds, I will try to keep you safe from him as long as I can.


I see an area due east of the Tower of Hera…around the very top of Death Mountain…
I’m afraid I must ask you to do what I cannot-defeat the beast.


Something strange is going on with the stone wall of Rosso’s ore mine. I suggest that you investigate.  
To do that, you must awaken your full potential, Hero of Hyrule.
I sense that the paintings of Hyrule’s Seven Sages are being sent to the far corners of Lorule.
You must steal those paintings back. The secret to Yuga’s defeat lies in uniting your friends!


Desert Palace
Farewell, Hero of Hyrule… We shall meet again…


I see a strange feature on a wall, far south of Hyrule’s Blacksmith.
Can you hear me, Hero of Hyrule?


It might be a long way, full of detours, but that’s where you should go.  
It is I, Princess Hilda. I wanted to warn you about the kingdom in which you’ve found yourself.  


Turtle Rock
My Lorule may remind you of your own home. But, in fact, our kingdoms are as different as night and day.


I see…Lake Hylia to the southeast of Hyrule Castle…
Worlds apart, as they say.


Ah, I see more now… There’s one of those strange fissures. I’d suggest that you investigate it.  
But Yuga’s scheme has forced our two kingdoms close together.  


Another path
So close, they are now connected.


This is the last path.  
What’s more, the Seven Sages you seek are spread across my land, locked away in dungeons.  


Thieves’ Hideout
But because parts of Lorule have long crumbled away, you cannot get to them from where you now are.


I see… What? No, I hear…! I hear people singing a password around Thieves’ Town.  
To reach them, you must first find a way back to Hyrule.  


You would do well to walk around there and listen to these words carefully.  
From various parts of your world, you can reach the same parts of mine.  


Another path
Now, one more thing.


I have welcomed you to Lorule, but my kingdom…? It ISN’T so welcoming to strangers.


Farewell-and be careful out there, Link.


Dungeon Bro:
Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…


Us brothers will be taking this here treasure! ‘Less you be dashin’, you may as well go home now!
You are in the area where the Skull Woods strike fear into the hearts of the living.


Pant…gasp…*hurk*… I don’t… Howzit that I’m not bein’ fast enough? I’m never not bein’ fast enough!
Not that there are many who live her for long. Within the woods are being no longer of this world.


That’s a nice dash you got there!
But brave them you must, if you are to recover a Sage who is pure of heart. Gather your courage.


With those wee little legs of yours… there’s nowhere you couldn’t go!
So say I, Hilda of Lorule…


I don’t buy that! This little twig of a boy, faster than my big brother? That sounds like a cheat, if you ask me!
Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…


Not far from here is a maze built to contain the power of fire. You must find a way to control the flames.


I also sense a strong presence in this vicinity. No doubt it’s a Sage.
Derby Girl:


If you hit three pots in a row, you’ll see a bird cross the field. Hit it for an extra 20 Rupees, kid!
Go now. Only you can help. So say I, Hilda of Lorule…


Here’s a pro tip, kid: the pots reset if you hit one of the crabs.
Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…


Move the Circle Pad up and down to change your batting stance. Your distance depends on your stance!
You find yourself near a swamp that is a dread and rotting place.
Within it I sense…the very faint presence of a Sage.
And, how odd…I sense also desert sand near this Sage. But there is NO desert in Lorule!


Furthermore, I forsee that you must bring an item into a temple there that will give you control over sand.


I say again that there is no desert in Lorule. I do sense the start of your path is here though. How baffling.


Octo:
So say I, Hilda of Lorule…


I may not look like much, but I’m aiming for the big leagues, pal! Remember that!
Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…


What’s up there, buddy? You wanna take me on? That why you’re staring at me like dat?! Let’s do it!
You have entered a truly evil place.


Whaddya think of my hat? It’s official big league apparel! It suits me, yah? Say it suits me! …Please?
You must find the Dark Palace. There you will discover a Sage in desperate need of your help.


Think you can handle the heat I bring? Then step on up to my kitchen plate! …I’m still workin’ on that one.
Please…go quickly to the rescue. So say I, Hilda of Lorule…


You are nearing the Dark Palace. It is home to the followers of a great and terrible beast.


Derby Boy:
They were once soldiers from Lorule Castle. How they revere a foul being and cower here in this temple.


Hey, batta, batta, batta! Welcome to the Octoball Derby!
I accept the responsibility. I was too weak to protect them. They were all good people…my people.


It’s 50 Rupees per game. How about it, kid? Wanna give it a swing?
If they find you, they will imprison you. Please be careful. So say I, Hilda of Lorule.


Yes
Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…


Attaboy, batta boy! Yer on deck. Here we go! 30 pitches comin’ at ya!
Where you stand now was once a holy place. Now it could not be further away from such a thing.
However, nearby sleeps something that will help you on your journey. A thorough search will behoove you.  


No
So say I, Hilda of Lorule…


OK, let’s see…you got (x) Rupee(s)!
Oh, lovely Zelda. What is it like to be a princess from a kingdom blessed by so many happy endings?


You fall asleep out there? You gotta swing if you wanna hit anything?
Once upon a time, Lorule was such a place. Once, but no longer.


Watch where you’re hittin’ those balls, pal! You almost knocked out my Octorok pitcher!
Lorule was just like Hyrule. So very beautiful. So very…promising.


You wanna play again? You know the drill. It’s 50 Rupees per go.
We have need of a hero-and your Link is superb.
   
   
Yes
We all deserve a happy ending, don’t we? I can only hope that Link is victorious.


No
Welcome back to Lorule Kingdom, Link…


Hoo-wee! You hit the 100-Rupee mark! Nice job, kid!
This is Death Mountain. Here it is always winter… Somewhere buried under the ice is a ruined hall.
 
A Sage with a soul as formidable as a boulder awaits your help there.


Gimme a quick second, and I’ll grab ya something special for that effort!
You must hurry, though… His spirit will not last forever with such accursed ice everywhere.


OK, here’s your prize for hitting the 100-Rupee mark!
So say I, Hilda of Lorule…


I’m fresh outta prizes, but come back and play whenever you want!
Oh, lovely Zelda. Can you begin to comprehend how lucky you are? Such legends! Such heroes!


Hey there, slugger! Welcome back to the Octoball Derby.
We had legends. We had heroes. Lorule had hope.
   
   
It’s 50 Rupees per game. Your best score so far is (x) Rupee(s)!
But all that is gone. Lorule has only me now. And YOUR hero, of course.  


Wanna give it another swing?
And if the Hero of Hyrule fails me…? Oh, but I must have courage! He will succeed, or all is lost.


Yeah


Nah
Blacksmith’s Wife (Lorule):


You set a new record! Congrats!
How does this kid expect to survive two seconds in Lorule if he’s-?


Well, well, well… Lookit this! Oh, I’m sorry. Did I wake you?


How was your nap?!


Rupee Rush Guy:
Don’t even know why I brought you back. Shoulda just left you there passed out in the middle of the road…


Ready to…rush? Nah, not my style. To roll? To…? Eh, whatever.  
Now that you’re awake and I see you’re OK, you can see yourself to the door. Go on now. Scoot!


So look here. This is Rupee Rush. I’m not gonna sell you on it.
Whaddya want this time?! Here I am, taking all this time just to help folks out… Since when did I get so…nice?!


I will say this, though. It’s not a bad way to make some good loot.
The nerve… Passing out right in the middle of the road and then mumbling that name… What was it? Gulley?
I’ll give you 30 seconds to grab as many Rupees as you can.


If you come back and talk to me before your time is up, you get to keep all your Rupees.
Whoever heard of such a name? Even if I had kids, I would never name one Gulley! Now go on! Scoot!


It’s not THAT easy, though. Because there’s no timer.  
Yeah… You were collapsed in the middle’a the road. AGAIN. So I brought you back here. AGAIN.


Play some Rupee Rush? C’mon, it’s only 100 Rupees for one go.
I’d appreciate it if you could quit collapsin’ all over the place. Think you could manage that?!


Play
Try to help someone, and they just end up in yer way again! SHEESH!


If you don’t speak to me within 30 seconds, there’s no payout. Got it? OK then, go!
What is this sudden mood change? He’s really worked up! You wouldn’t know anything about this, would you?


No


Fine. No skin off my nose. If you change your mind, I’m here.
Craftsman (Lorule):


No Rupees… Hmm. If you don’t care about Rupees, you’re in the wrong place.
You’re the kid the boss’s wife picked up, eh?


If you think you’ve got the timing down pat, come again.
I don’t know what I can do for ya. I just work here, y’know what I mean?
Not gonna wait forever, though…


This game’s all about coming in as close to the nick of time as you can. So, sorry, but you forfeit.
I say “work,” but it’s not like we’re all that busy here, y’know?
Wait until you’re at LEAST within 10 seconds to speak to me!


And the results are in!
Wow! I haven’t seen the master fired up like this for a while!


I like a greedy go-getter, but you forfeit. Sorry.


Sorry, but you were over by…let’s see… (x) second(s).
I admire your greedy gusto, but sorry…you forfeit.


You call that just on time? I call it early by a mile!
Blacksmith (Lorule):


Lookit that! A new record! Looks like you figured out the secret to rushing!
Are you really running around with a sword like that? Sheesh…


The current high score is (x) Rupee(s).
I pour my heart and soul into crafting fine weapons, and folks still just battle with whatever they find lying around…
Hmm. Not too shabby…


I mean, that was some OK work with the whole just-in-timeness there.
Hey, you there! Kid!


…What?!
Th-that sword you got there, kid! Lemme see it for a second!


Just in time?!
Let me take a look…at…?


Er, sorry. I don’t usually get so, uh, excited. But thanks. Nice to see someone do really well here.
This is really a fine sword. Excellent craftsmanship! Just excellent. Whoever made this was very skilled!
That’s a towering achievement! Here’s your reward!


Not as skilled as I am, of course. Wow. I mean, I am the top blacksmith in the world, y’know…


But whoever did this might just be the second best.


Bomb-Shop Man:
Ah, this is getting my blood running!


(eighth note) Yo ho ho! Who is that who goes? Friend or foe? Who is it? Do I know?
Hey, boy! Follow me!


(eighth note) For bombs you seem to be searchin’. Well then, leave me to my researchin’!
If you can find two chunks of Master Ore, I’ll temper that sword of yours.  


(eighth note) What I can sell ya now is n-n-n-nuttin’! Sorry I ain’t got more for your mutton!
And I won’t just temper it, I’ll make that sword of your sing! It’ll be the envy of the whole world!


(eighth note) Buh-buh-buh-buh! Want the Big Bomb Flower?
I just need two chunks of that ol’ Master Ore, and you’ll see what I mean!


(eighth note) Lucky you-I’m lendin that power! For a one-time fee, use it for hours and hours.
If you want your sword tempered, bring me two chunks of Master Ore. And do it before I lose steam!


(eighth note) Oh yeah, the Big Bomb Flower. Wanna n-nuh-know about its power?
Here I am. I finally found the motivation to do some smithin’, and we don’t got any Master Ore!


        (eighth note) Wanna know
What’s that…? You’ve got a piece there, eh?


No need
Well, to make the sword I’m thinking of, you’re gonna need one more piece.


(eighth note) So quiet! Y’know silence glistens. That’s fine with me-I’ll just talk. And you just listen!
You bring me that, and I’ll give you the most beautiful blade this world has ever seen!


(eighth note) The flower bloomin’ in the garden is really a bomb. And it’s a total bargain!
I don’t often get this worked up, y’know? Get movin’ and bring me one more chunk of Master Ore!


(eighth note) Just go on and touch it. It’ll be a following bloom.


(eighth note) Big Bomb Flower gonna make big boulders go boom!


(eighth note) But be careful, ya know. Just the slightest scratch will make it explode!
Witch (Lorule):


(eighth note) This big flower is only found here! If you’re interested, kid, you’ll wanna get near!
I don’t mean to boast about my spicy darling here, but why not? Not everyone’s got a fellow like him.


(eighth note) Wanna use the Big Bomb Flower? For just 200 Rupees, you can stop lookin’ so sour!
He’s handsome AND talented.


(eighth note) Bo-rro-rrow
Of course you are, darling, and I’m the MOST fortunate witch around!


No need
Don’t you dare nitpick my darling’s fortunes. He’s always right.


(eighth note) Well, that’s just how life goes! I’m here if your mind changes clothes.
What now? Who’s Irene?


(eighth note) And don’t go beggin’ for my pardon. Just don’t go headin’ to the garden. Authorized personnel only, ya know?
Does this have something to do with my darling? If not, I don’t give a wicked fig!






Milk Bar Owner (Lorule):
Fortune-Teller (Lorule):


Whaddya want?! Scram, brat!
Oh, c’mon, Mapes. You know how I can’t stand compliments…


What with all the monsters running around, more and more folks are taking refuge in here.
Unless you say them right.  
Customers everywhere…


IT REALLY GETS MY GOAT!
I’m the MOST handsome and talented. Why, I’m the foremost fortune-teller in this world or any other!


I just want to drink a little bit of milk in peace! Why can’t everyone just leave me alone and scram?!
I am a reader of fortunes, and I see your future. I’ll tell you what’s to come for 20 Rupees.


Tell me


No, thanks


Woman (Lorule):
Are you saying you have no interest in having your fortune told?


Uh, hey. Think I look strong?
My fortunes can be worth their weight in gold. Especially when you’re feeling particularly stuck in your adventures.  


Sure
How may I be of help?


You lying? Cuz your ears twitched real funny there. Mine do that when I lie. They twitch ALL the time.
Fortune


Anyway, I may not look it, but I’m a regular at the Treacherous Tower.
Nothing


Whaddya mean, you’ve never heard of the Treacherous Tower?!
But if you don’t want to hear, maybe that’s all for the best…


No way
Oh! So much fortune to tell! It’s like a buffet of fate. I see seven paths before you…


You call it like you see it, eh? I’m sorry to say you’re right… I’m weak. So…so weak…
Which path would you like to ask about?


I’m training, though. I’m trying to become a regular up at the Treacherous Tower.
Dark Palace


What, you’ve never heard of the Treacherous Tower?
I see a place strewn with rocks, east of Hyrule Castle…


Well, you know Death Mountain? It’s right on top of that. The place attracts some tough customers.  
And I see something odd on a pillar there. I suggest that you investigate.  


Be careful about going around judging people by their appearance, boy. If I were stronger, I’d teach you a lesson!
I see…that you were lost in the Dark Palace!


Got faith in your sword arm, boy? Go to the Treacherous Tower, and put your money where your mouth is.  
I can see no further, but I’d suggest using those Hint Glasses you’ve got there to make your way through it.  


It’s up on top of Death Mountain. Just getting there is something of an achievement, if you ask me.  
Strange. So very strange. The path is clouded… Oh, I see. That isn’t your future. It’s your past.  


You have been there…and done that. No, keep your Rupees. But feel free to inquire about a different path.


Swamp Palace


Captain (Lorule):
I see an enormous bomb…one that will…follow you?


Here I am working for the royal family. As if it weren’t their fault things have fallen apart!
It is south of Thieves’ Town.  


Look around, kiddo. It’s all thieves and creepy masked folks in this village. There’s nothin’ royal about this place.  
Lead it to a shrine surrounded by water, south of Lorule Castle.  


Skull Woods


I can see Sahasrahla’s house in Kakariko Village…


Bard (Lorule):
And I see something strange on the wall in the back of the house… I suggest that you investigate.


Met the boss of our little village here? Heh heh. Yeah, he wouldn’t waste time on someone like you.
Another path


He’s busy stashin’ away that new painting he’s got. Thing must be worth a fortune…
These are the other paths. Which one would you like to ask about?


If that theif girl knows where it is, she best keep her trap shut! Unless she wants to tell me where it is! Heh heh!
Ice Ruins


That whole thing kinda inspired me, actually. Wanna hear my latest ditty?
I see an area due east of the Tower of Hera…around the very top of Death Mountain…


(eighth note) Oh ho ho! Wrong place, wrong time, and the boss will be glad to put you back in line!
Something strange is going on with the stone wall of Rosso’s ore mine. I suggest that you investigate.


(eighth note) A smart thief fears the boss’s wrath! I’d rather be on a cliff walkin’ a narrow path!
I see the snow-capped summit of a mountain and frozen…statues?


I sense that you need something that produces fire to blaze your way through.


I see…that you were lost in the Ice Ruins!


Young Woman:
I can see no further, but I’d suggest using those Hint Glasses you’ve got there to make your way through it.


Poor little Cuccos. Their coop got all smashed up.  
Strange. So very strange. The path is clouded… Oh, I see. That isn’t your future. It’s your past.  


All that’s left is these eggs… Don’t worry little eggies, I’ll make sure nothing happens to you.  
You have been there…and done that. No, keep your Rupees. But feel free to inquire about a different path.  




Desert Palace


Masked Follower (Male):
I see a strange feature on a wall, far south of Hyrule’s Blacksmith.


Those statues at the north edge of town are entrances to some sort of hideout.  
It might be a long way, full of detours, but that’s where you should go.  


It gives me the chills just looking at them!
I see…that you were lost in the Desert Palace!


I once knocked on the door, but they told me to make like a piece of fruit and scoot!
I can see no further, but I’d suggest using those Hint Glasses you’ve got there to make your way through it


Ohh, I wish I had the strength to leave this terrible place entirely!
Strange. So very strange. The path is clouded… Oh, I see. That isn’t your future. It’s your past.


Mumbo jumbo, mumbo jumbo…
You have been there…and done that. No, keep your Rupees. But feel free to inquire about a different path.


Turtle Rock


I see…Lake Hylia to the southeast of Hyrule Castle…


Masked Elder:
Ah, I see more now… There’s one of those strange fissures. I’d suggest that you investigate it.


Though we have seen the world crumble before us, we must not give in to the corruption of thievery!
Another path


Monsters can keep you strong! They are your only salvation, my son! You must don the mask! Don the mask!
This is the last path.


We are corrupt. CORRUPT! Do not be deceived. Only monsters will save us now! Mumbo jumbo, mumbo jumbo…
Thieves’ Hideout


I see… What? No, I hear…! I hear people singing a password around Thieves’ Town.


You would do well to walk around there and listen to these words carefully.


Veteran Thief:
I see…that you were lost in Thieves’ Hideout!


(eighth note) Many years ago, I felt so free… Thought I chose the thief’s life, but it really chose me.  
I can see no further, but I’d suggest using those Hint Glasses you’ve got there to make your way through it.  


(eighth note) Every time I say I’m a-leavin’, this accursed life sets me right back to thievin’!
I see a portrait in a house east of the Thieves’ Hideout.


Oh! Hey there, little guy! Sorry. I was just singing out loud. It’s an old tune. You probably wouldn’t know it.
Why don’t you try heading there?


Whaddya think of this place? Little too rough for ya, eh?
Strange. So very strange. The path is clouded… Oh, I see. That isn’t your future. It’s your past.
You have been there…and done that. No, keep your Rupees. But feel free to inquire about a different path.


I don’t mind it so much. At least there’s still a strong musical culture in this town. It’s a tradition with us!
Another path

Lakeside Item Seller (Lorule):


Hello! Welcome, welcome!


Some believe that chanting the worlds “Ay lliw nihtemos yub” is the key to being saved.
Woman (Lorule):


Saved from what, I ask? High prices?!
Uh, hey. Think I look strong?


Still, it’s a catchy incantation. I sort of hope if I say it enough, it’ll transport me out of this world.
Sure


Speaking of, have you heard of the Maiamais? They say they can travel between worlds.  
You lying? Cuz your ears twitched real funny there. Mine do that when I lie. They twitch ALL the time.  


But until I can hitch a ride with one of them weird squidlings…?
Anyway, I may not look it, but I’m a regular at the Treacherous Tower.


Ay lliw nihtemos yub…
Whaddya mean, you’ve never heard of the Treacherous Tower?!


Ay lliw nihtemos yub…
No way


Sir, what can I tell you? You have impeccable taste! This is our famous bee. It costs 88 Rupees.  
You call it like you see it, eh? I’m sorry to say you’re right… I’m weak. So…so weak…


Why not snap it up now and save?
I’m training, though. I’m trying to become a regular up at the Treacherous Tower.


Yes
What, you’ve never heard of the Treacherous Tower?


It appears that you don’t have enough Rupees. What a pity! A true pity!
Well, you know Death Mountain? It’s right on top of that. The place attracts some tough customers.


I’m sorry, mister. Unless you have an empty bottle. I can’t sell this to you.
Be careful about going around judging people by their appearance, boy. If I were stronger, I’d teach you a lesson!


…Ay lliw nihtemos yub…
Got faith in your sword arm, boy? Go to the Treacherous Tower, and put your money where your mouth is.


No
It’s up on top of Death Mountain. Just getting there is something of an achievement, if you ask me.


…Ay lliw nihtemos yub…


Sir what can I tell you? You have impeccable taste! This is our famous golden bee. It costs 9999 Rupees.


Why not snap it up now and save?
Captain (Lorule):

Sir, what can I tell you? You have impeccable taste! This is our famous fairy. It costs 77 Rupees.


Why not snap it up now and save?


Yes
Bard (Lorule):


No
Met the boss of our little village here? Heh heh. Yeah, he wouldn’t waste time on someone like you.


So the shield will run you about 50 Rupees. Would you like to buy it right away and save?
He’s busy stashin’ away that new painting he’s got. Thing must be worth a fortune…


Yes
If that theif girl knows where it is, she best keep her trap shut! Unless she wants to tell me where it is! Heh heh!


You…you have a shield already, don’t you?
That whole thing kinda inspired me, actually. Wanna hear my latest ditty?

Bird-Masked Man:


I’m happy as long as my feathered friends are with me… Well, that is before they got turned into monsters.
Young Woman (Lorule):


In which case, I should have been changed along with them…I thought, so I put on a mask and chanted. A lot.  
Poor little Cuccos. Their coop got all smashed up.  


I tried to admire the yellow-winged monsters that live nearby, but…
All that’s left is these eggs… Don’t worry little eggies, I’ll make sure nothing happens to you.


As soon as they land, they spit out these bomb-like things, and I can’t get anywhere near them!


I think I might be able to get closer to one if I had a shield…


Masked Follower (Male):


Those statues at the north edge of town are entrances to some sort of hideout.


Lorule Soldiers:
It gives me the chills just looking at them!


ALL INTRUDERS MUST BE CAPTURED! WE MUST CAPTURE ALL INTRUDERS!
I once knocked on the door, but they told me to make like a piece of fruit and scoot!


Ohh, I wish I had the strength to leave this terrible place entirely!


Mumbo jumbo, mumbo jumbo…


Mama Turtle:


Oh no! I got separated from my little turtles. You have to help me look for them-you just have to!


Masked Follower (Female):


I can’t see a thing in this mask! Just what kind of monster are you supposed to be?!


Game Text:
You’re not that thief girl, are ya?! I heard you were supposed to be locked up inside a cell somewhere!


This is the energy gauge. It depletes when you use [[File:Ravio's-Icon.png]]'s items and recharges over time.
What a mask you got there! Being a monster is so calming, ya know?! Don’tcha think? Well, don’tcha?! EH?!


If your energy runs out, you can’t use [[File:Ravio's-Icon.png]]’s items until it replenishes.
The only way to get saved is to become a monster! C’mon! Get saved! Mumbo jumbo, mumbo jumbo…


Try it out using the [[File:Bow-Icon.png]] you just got.


Want to hear the explanation again?


Yes
Masked Granny:


No
Mumbo jumbo, mumbo jumbo-OUCH! Argh, I bit my tongue again!

Bird-Masked Man:
 
I’m happy as long as my feathered friends are with me… Well, that is before they got turned into monsters.
 
In which case, I should have been changed along with them…I thought, so I put on a mask and chanted. A lot.
 
I tried to admire the yellow-winged monsters that live nearby, but…
 
As soon as they land, they spit out these bomb-like things, and I can’t get anywhere near them!
 
I think I might be able to get closer to one if I had a shield…

Ah, light…! How long has it been since I knew such a comfort?
 
Three years…? Or an eternity…? The world outside has long darkened with the menace of the masked.

Thief Girl:
 
Who are you supposed to be?! And how did you get in here?!
 
Hang on a second. You wouldn’t happen to be looking for some kind of painting, would you?
 
I knew it! That thing must be pretty valuable if the boss went to all that trouble just to hide it.
And now folks are searchin’ for it. Hm. Well, I may have “accidentally” learned where the boss hid it…maybe.
 
That’s why the creep locked me in here! Can you believe that?! Say… we could help each other out here.
 
If you could get me out of here, then maybe I could help you find what you’re looking for. Maybe.
 
So get going! I don’t wanna spend any more time than I have to down here! No maybes about that one!
 
Well, first things first. You gotta do something about the door. I want to get out of here already.
 
Ohh, thank you very much! You saved my life. Please take me outside.
 
That painting you’re looking for is hidden on the outskirts of town. I’ll take you to it.
 
By the way, where did you learn how to slide in and out of the walls like that?! That’s a little bit creepy.
 
Maybe you can teach me how to do it!
 
We’re locked in! Check that northern door. See if we can get out that way!
 
Hey! What are you doing?! You can’t just leave me behind like some sort of monster!
 
There’s more where that came from.
I’d help you fight, but they took all my gear and armor and…y’know, all my other stuff.
 
Plus I’d just be getting in the way, I’m so hungry. Starving, actually. So I’m weak and feeble and so on, ya know?
 
Hey! What do you think you’re doing?! Take me outside!
 
We’re cut off! That big door is our only way outta here! Hope you got a key for that, kid!
 
Gyaaah! What gives?!
 
Wow. Looks like you got him… Good riddance.
Let’s go. That door will lead us outta this place.
 
You’re looking for that painting, yah? That one of the kinda younger…elder-looking fella?
 
I’ll show you where it’s hidden. C’mon. Follow me.
 
This is the one, right? Don’t see what the big deal is. What’s so special about this painting?
 
Hm… Actually, now that I look at it, it is kinda interesting. I really like the whole…flat kinda look going on there.
 
It almost looks like he just walked right in the painting and got trapped there, ya know…?
 
Listen to me! Getting’ all wrapped up in a painting! Anyway, thanks for getting me out of that dungeon. See ya.
