The '''King of Red Lions''' is a talking boat that [[Link (The Wind Waker)|Link]] befriends on the [[Great Sea]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''.


The King of Red Lions is actually the [[King of Hyrule]], named [[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]].
==''The Wind Waker''==
Link uses the King of Red Lions to travel the Great Sea, and the King gives advice to Link while on their travels. Link receives the [[Wind Waker]] from this boat after arriving at [[Dragon Roost Island]]. He is first met after Link attempts to tackle the [[Forsaken Fortress]], and rescues him after he is flung from the tower by the [[Helmaroc King]]. After being tossed out to the Great Sea, the King of Red Lions finds him and takes him to shore on [[Windfall Island]].{{Ref|TWW|3078-3081|King of Red Lions}}
 
After the unconscious Link wakes up, the King of Red Lions introduces himself to Link and says that he is the only boat who can speak the words of men.{{Ref|TWW|3082|King of Red Lions}} He also says he has been watching Link since he went to the Forsaken Fortress to save [[Aryll]] and that such a bold attempt was foolhardy.{{Ref|TWW|3083|King of Red Lions}} He then speaks about [[Ganon]],{{Ref|TWW|3084|King of Red Lions}} the very same Ganon the ancient legends speak of, who was sealed away and has returned to enshroud the world in evil.{{Ref|TWW|3085|King of Red Lions}}{{Ref|TWW|3086|King of Red Lions}}{{Ref|TWW|3087|King of Red Lions}}
 
The King of Red Lions says that he shall guide Link as they go forward,{{Ref|TWW|3090|King of Red Lions}}{{Ref|TWW|3091|King of Red Lions}}{{Ref|TWW|3092|King of Red Lions}} but says that although he is indeed a boat, he does not possess a [[Sail]],{{Ref|TWW|3093|King of Red Lions}} and tells Link to find one at the island so that they can travel across the Great Sea.{{Ref|TWW|3094|King of Red Lions}} After Link receives the [[Grappling Hook]], he can attach it on the boat as a salvage arm, which is used to find [[treasure]]s at the bottom of the ocean. The King of Red Lions also has a bomb cannon, which is used to shoot [[Bomb]]s. In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD|The Wind Waker HD]]'', Link can find the [[Swift Sail]], which allows Link to travel even faster with the King of Red Lions.
 
Later in the quest, it is revealed that the King of Red Lions is actually the [[King of Hyrule]], named [[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]].

The Hero of Wind, Link uses the Wind Waker to control the wind and sail the seas on his mysterious boat (which is actually the King of Hyrule).<br/><br/>
Surprisingly, he seems to have an unnatural interest in figurines and has at last completed his collection! He is now the master of the Nintendo Gallery.
