While Link and Zelda are riding off through the clouds, a sudden tornado has been summoned, causing Zelda to fall off her bird and get sucked down into the land below. Link goes after Zelda, but appears to be knocked out cold by the huge fall. He is awakened by Phi, the spirit of the Skyward Sword, and Phi will stick with Link throughout his quest, serving as a spiritual guide. Link also comes across an old man who lives in Skyloft and he entrusts him with his green tunic. | While Link and Zelda are riding off through the clouds, a sudden tornado has been summoned, causing Zelda to fall off her bird and get sucked down into the land below.

Link will travel down to the land below in search of Zelda.

Throughout his quest, he will use a standard set of inventory items as he battles through the overworld and dungeons, attempting to save Hyrule from the evil that lurks. Part of his quest will take him to the Siren World where he must collect tear-shaped items without the aid of his sword. He will fight many foes along the way, but perhaps none fiercer as the Demon Lord Ghirahim. Ghirahim is also in search of Zelda and has no problem bringing Link to an inch of his life. It's up to our hero to defeat Ghirahim, rescue Zelda, and save the lands of Skyloft and Hyrule. | ||

After Link successfully wins the race, Zelda leaps off of the ledge from Skyloft, dropping down onto Link's bird to congratulate him. Things eventually take takes a turn for the worse when Link and Zelda are flying about. A huge tornado is summoned causing Zelda to fall off her bird and get sucked to the land beneath the clouds. As she falls to the ground, she appears to be swallowed by a giant whale. It turns out that the whale is likely a servant of the Goddess and after being snatched up, Zelda is taken to the Sky Temple. | After Link successfully wins the race, Zelda leaps off of the ledge from Skyloft, dropping down onto Link's bird to congratulate him.

Link is out to rescue her while Ghirahim seeks her holiness. She apparently has been taken to the Sky Temple, but appears to leave or is taken elsewhere before either Link or Ghirahim have a chance to reach her. It is uncertain who will find her first and what will become of her. | ||

After Zelda is taken by the tornado, Link goes to the old man to tell him of Zelda's fate and for help. The old man, perhaps with personal reasons if Zelda is his daughter, equips Link with a green tunic and sets him off to find Zelda. | After Zelda is taken by the tornado, Link goes to the old man to tell him of Zelda's fate and for help.

===Link's Rival=== | |||
This fellow birdrider appears throughout the game in different ways. He has a thing for Zelda and is determined to win the birdriding competition to impress her. He competes very roughly with Link, and tries to knock him around to prevent him from taking the golden statue first. He also has his friend throw eggs at Link to slow him down. The ceremony leader specifically warned against this behavior just before the contest began, and the old man singled out this competitor as someone who is prone to not play by the rules. He will probably be trying to rescue Zelda before Link does, but it isn't known whether he will be a help or a hindrance to Link's quest. | |||

Due to them hiding the key, it is unclear what the intentions of these Mogmas are. They may be trying to protect this temple or keep Link from it. | Due to them hiding the key, it is unclear what the intentions of these Mogmas are.

===Goron=== | |||
This Goron looks more like one that you would see in The Wind Waker than in Ocarina of Time. He appears to be some sort of travelling merchant, away from his probable home on Death Mountain and exploring the wooded area near the Sky Temple. His purpose is very unclear at this point, though he carries a Triforce symbol with him - the only one seen so far outside of the Siren World. He may be able to aid Link on his journey somehow. | |||

The figure itself very much resembles a whale, and its teeth bare a resemblence to Lord Jabu Jabu from Ocarina of Time. While not much is known as this point, this whale figure could well be Lord Jabu Jabu himself. | The figure itself very much resembles a whale, and its teeth bare a resemblence to Lord Jabu Jabu from Ocarina of Time.

===The Tinkerer=== | |||
Judging by the wrench on his family or personal crest, this man is a mechanic by trade. He is seen tinkering with some object on a counter. This character may be responsible for upgrading much of Link's equipment. | |||
===The Soup Lady=== | |||
This woman makes soup. | |||
===Bulbapenguin=== | |||
This creature disguises itself as a normal bush, but emerges to talk with Link when he approaches, in a similar manner to the Business Scrubs of Ocarina of Time. | |||
===Others=== | |||
