Music: Difference between revisions

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', Link uses the [[Wind Waker]] as a baton of sorts to use different patterns to affect his environment. In particular, Link learns a pattern that allows him to transport to several different locations in [[The Great Sea]]. That pattern is known as the [[Ballad of Gales]]. The Ballad of Gales creates a whirlwind around Link and the [[King of Red Lions]] which then allows them to be taken to several prescribed locations on The Great Sea instantly.

There are several other instruments in the [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''Legend of Zelda'' series]] that are used for transportation. ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'' has the [[Recorder]] as its instrument of travel, allowing Link to travel instantly to any of the previously cleared dungeons in the game. ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'' has the [[Flute]] (which looks very similar to the Ocarina of Time, but not quite) which allows travel to any of several prescribed locations in the [[Light World]]. ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'' has the [[Ocarina of Wind]] which calls [[Zeffa]], a bird, to carry Link to any uncovered [[Wind Crest]].

Music can also be used to restore power to objects and items. A good example of this is in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. Link, along with [[Medli]] and [[Makar]], have to restore the [[Power to Repel Evil]] to the [[Master Sword]] by Link conducting the two [[Sage]]s as they play on their instruments in the [[Earth Temple (The Wind Waker)|Earth]] and [[Wind Temple|Wind]] temples, respectively. After this ceremony, power is then restored to the Master Sword.

''[[The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks|Spirit Tracks]]'' is another game where music is required to restore things. This time, music is used to restore [[Spirit Tracks]] through the [[Lokomo Duets]] that Link performs with the [[Lokomo]]s while playing on the [[Spirit Flute]]. This not only allows access to new areas in the overworld, but also helps in sealing the [[Malladus|Demon King Malladus]] through the rails and the temples that Link now has access to.

The newest game in the franchise, ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'', uses the [[Goddess's Harp]] as a musical instrument. Playing the harp allows Link to activate [[Goddess Wall]]s and [[Gossip Stone]]s in areas where there are [[Blessed Butterfly|Blessed Butterflies]], giving Link advice, some extra [[treasure]], and possibly healing him.
