I made some general wording edits and fixed some previous information. I added more about how he's a caretaker and leader of the forests in both OoT and TWW and also how he explained the Triforce, Gods, and creation of the Earth. (elaborated on this)

He is considered responsible and wise. This is evidenced by the fact that Link's mother trusted the Great Deku Tree to watch over Link during the wars that dominated when she was alive. At the beginning of Ocarina of Time, he orders Navi to bring Link over to him. He assigns a [[fairy]] for each Kokiri in the forest, Navi being Link's companion throughout the adventure. He protects each of the Kokiri and saves them from the outside world (Hyrule) and its horrors. Unfortunately, his death later allows monsters to sweep in and infest the once peaceful forest. | ||

After Link wakes up from his seven year slumber, he discovers the Kokiri Forest is now infested with monsters. The Kokiri say this started happening after the death of the Great Deku Tree. When Link completes the Forest Temple, Link is transported back to the Kokiri Forest where he watches the [[Deku Tree Sprout]] grow in front of the dead Great Deku Tree. It is speculated that the Deku Tree Sprout is in fact the Great Deku Tree in ''The Wind Waker''. | After Link wakes up from his seven year slumber, he discovers the Kokiri Forest is now infested with monsters.
