Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper: Difference between revisions

Once Link reaches Kakariko Village after meeting [[Zelda]], the Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper teases Link about how he cannot pass through the gate unless given permission by the Royal Family.{{Ref|OoT|997|Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper}} Once Link gives [[Zelda's Letter]] to the Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper, he will allow Link to go through the gate.{{Ref|OoT|999|Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper}} After this, the Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper will become more friendly towards Link, leading him to worry about Link's safety on Death Mountain. He will even give Link a discount on a [[Hylian Shield]] at the [[Bazaar]] in [[Castle Town]], making the shield 50 [[Rupee]]s instead of 80.{{Ref|OoT|1006|Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper}}

After giving all of his advice to Link, the Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper will ask Link to do him a favor. His son wants the [[Keaton Mask]] that the [[Happy Mask Shop]] is selling. However, he has no time to leave his post and go to the Happy Mask Shop. He then asks Link to retrieve the mask for him. Once Link returns with the Keaton Mask, the guard will pay 15 Rupees for it.{{Ref|OoT|992|Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper}}{{Ref|OoT|993|Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper}}{{Ref|OoT|1018|Death Mountain Trail Gatekeeper}} However, if Link refuses to sell the mask to him, the guard will be angered and will close the gate until Link sells it to him, but once Link leaves Kakariko Village or enters and exits a building, the gate will be opened. After buying the Keaton Mask, the guard will wear the mask even though it's for his son.

After returning to Kakariko Village seven years later, the guard is no where to be found most likely due to the fall of the Royal Family.
