Link: Difference between revisions

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', Link gets caught out on the sea on his raft during a storm. He eventually washes up on the shores of [[Koholint Island]], where a girl named [[Marin]] finds him. She takes him back to [[Mabe Village]], where she lives with her father, [[Tarin]]. Link mistakes Marin as Princess Zelda.

After obtaining his [[Shield]] from Tarin, Link goes to [[Toronbo Shores]] to get his [[Sword]] back. An [[Owl]] then appears and tells him that he cannot leave the island until he wakes the [[Wind Fish]], and that he should go to the [[Mysterious Woods]]. When Link returns to the village, he finds that Tarin has already gone into the woods. He finds him transformed into a raccoon, and Link must use [[Magic Powder]] to return him to normal. After that, Link obtains the [[Tail Key]], which allows him to enter the first dungeon, [[Tail Cave]].

Link ventures to Hyrule Castle and visits the Triforce in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]''. While there, he is knocked unconscious and falls into the world of [[Holodrum]]. He is discovered by a dancer named [[Din (Oracle)|Din]] who cares for him until he awakens. He discovers Din with her troupe and talks to everyone, then Din asks him to dance. While dancing, the troupe is attacked by [[Onox]], General of Darkness, who reveals that Din is none other than the Oracle of Seasons and controls the seasons in Holodrum. He causes a tornado that sends the members of the troupe flying and attacks Link while he tries to protect Din. He tries saving her again and ends up blown away and knocked unconscious. Onox imprisons Din and sinks the [[Temple of Seasons]] into the land of [[Subrosia]], throwing the seasons into chaos. [[Impa]], the troupe's cook, wakes him up and explains that she is actually the nursemaid of Princess Zelda and Link is a hero with a special fate. She tells him to go see the [[Maku Tree (Oracle of Seasons)|Maku Tree]] in Horon Village in order to help save Din. A weakened Maku Tree explains that Link must go find the eight Essences of Nature in order to restore him to his former state. Eventually, Link has to find the Temple of Seasons in Subrosia and obtain the [[Rod of Seasons]] which he can use to control the seasons manually in order to save Din. However, he has to visit the spirits of each season to gain their powers. Once equipped with all four seasons and all eight Essences, the Maku Tree gives Link a [[Huge Maku Seed|Maku Seed]], which can be used to get rid of the darkness surrounding Onox's castle. Link fights Onox and defeats him, but it is revealed later that Onox and [[Veran]] were just pawns to [[Twinrova]], who is trying to revive [[Ganon]]. The defeat of Onox lights the Flame of Destruction, and Twinrova kidnaps Zelda to sacrifice her. Link ventures forth into the [[Room of Rites]] and fights Twinrova, defeating her. Twinrova then sacrifices herself and Ganon is revived as a mindless beast, and defeated by Link. Afterwards, he returns with Zelda and the game ends with him on a raft heading for an unknown location.

When speaking with Sahasrahla, the elder realizes that he sent the Sage [[Osfala]] to the Eastern Palace, where he is under threat of attack from Yuga.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|Oh no! When I heard rumors of a strange man lurking near the Eastern Palace. I sent my pupil Osfala to investigate. I've put him in danger, for he's also a descendant of the Seven Sages! I'm sure Yuga will be waiting for him!|Sahasrahla}} He sends Link to warn the [[Seven Sages|Sage]]{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|I'll never make it in time to warn him! But you, Link… Could you hurry to Osfala and tell him everything? Please!|Sahasrahla}}, whom he meets at the entrance to the Palace. Osfala shoves him off however,{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|My master sent you to fetch me back to safety? Wah-haha! This Yuga you speak of… Surely he's cause for grave concern. But why should Sahasrahla be worried about me? I'm a descendant of the original Seven Sages. I'm just as powerful as they were. I even got myself a Sand Rod, so I'm more or less invincible. Bold talk, you might say, but it's simply the truth. I'll get to the bottom of all this Yuga nonsense. Now, farewell to you, Link.|Osfala}} forcing Link to complete the Palace and watch the Sage be transformed into a painting by Yuga. Link is soon transformed into a painting much like the Captain; however, Ravio's Bracelet saves Link and allows him to escape the wall and transform into a painting whenever he chooses to.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds|A Link Between Worlds]]''|What happened, buddy? My bracelet did what now? Huh. Who knew? Pretty neat that you can turn into a painting. Wowie-wow. I wish I was you!|Ravio}}
