The Hawk is an animal seen exclusively in Twilight Princess. They are summoned by a type of grass, called Hawk Grass. Once called upon a small cutscene will take place where the Hawk comes out from the horizon and lands upon Link's arm. Link can aim the Hawk using the pointer on screen to solve certain puzzles in game. The Hawk in Ordon Village is seen as a form of protection as Hanch will call upon it to attack Link while in Wolf form.

Story

During the prologue of the game there will be a series of tasks that Link has to do in order to obtain the Slingshot, two of these tasks will involve Link calling upon the Hawk. Jaggle will tell Link to climb up onto the small cliff with him, he will tell Link how to use and summon the Hawk. Link must use aim the Hawk to knock down the beehive hanging from a tree in the village. This will allow Link to obtain Bee Larva, which he can use for bait. Link can also use the Hawk on a separate platform to retrieve Uli's Cradle. Which had previously been stolen by a Monkey from the Faron Woods. When retuning the cradle to Uli, she will gift Link with the Fishing Rod.

When escaping his imprisonment in Hyrule Castle, Link now in Wolf form and aided by Midna will have to return to Ordon Village. Midna will ask Link to retrieve the Ordon Sword and Shield. Since Link is now in Wolf form, the people of Ordon will see him as a beast. The villagers will be very hostile towards Link and Hanch will summon the Hawk to try and attack Link. Sera's Cat will tell Link to sneak up behind Hanch, thus preventing him from using the Hawk.

Later on in the game when Link will be trying to obtain the Master Sword, he will have to pass through the Sacred Grove. As Wold Link he will be able to howl at the Hawk Grass and this will summon the Hawk. Though the Hawk doesn't serve much purpose here it can be used to point out secret areas.

Trivia

  • After Wolf Link has scared down Hanch from the platform, he will be able to howl at the Hawk Grass. This will summon the Hawk and because Link is in Wolf form he will be able to interact with it. The Hawk will tell Link of nearby treasure in the area.
