Spoiler Alert! This article describes a subject that is sensitive to plot development.

Template:Character

Marin is an important character who appears in the game Link's Awakening. She is the daughter of Tarin and lives in Mabe Village on Koholint Island. When Link washes up on the beach, Marin discovers him and brings him back to her house, taking care of him until he wakes up.

Description

Marin is a girl who likes to sing the Ballad of the Wind Fish. She also enjoys taking walks and sitting alongside the beach.[1] In addition, the animals at Animal Village are very fond of her. They call her "Little Marin" and become very excited when she arrives, greeting her eagerly.[2][3] Any animal who hears her sing is instantly captivated by the song.[4]

Story

Link's Arrival

When Link first arrives on Koholint, Marin finds him unconscious at Toronbo Shores. She takes him back to Mabe Village. At first, Link mistakes Marin for Princess Zelda.[5] Link heads back to the beach to retrieve his sword. When he returns, Marin is standing by the weathercock at the Flying Rooster's resting place. She explains that her father has gone into the Mysterious Woods to look for Mushrooms, but she stayed behind to sing.[6]

The Ballad of the Wind Fish

Soon after obtaining the Pegasus Boots, Link can complete the Dream Shrine and receive the Ocarina. If he speaks with Marin while he has the ocarina, she asks him to accompany her as she sings.[7] Link then learns the Ballad of the Wind Fish, which is required to finish the game.

Animal Village

Once Link has completed Catfish's Maw, he tries to go to Yarna Desert to obtain the Angler Key. However, the path is blocked by a large sleeping Walrus. The people of Animal Village suggest that Link gets Marin to sing for him, because the Walrus loves her music.[8]

Link finds Marin sitting on Toronbo Shores and staring at the ocean. She asks if he will sit next to her and talk.[9] If he agrees, she talks about how her father believes there is nothing beyond Koholint and how excited she was when she discovered Link.[10] She admits her secret wish to become a seagull so that she could fly away.[11] Afterward, she agrees to go to Animal Village to awaken the Walrus.[12]

When they arrive at Animal Village, they head through it to the path with the Walrus in East of the Bay and Marin sings for him. The Walrus awakens with a start.[13] After that, one of the Rabbits from the village calls to Marin.[14] She decides to stay in Animal Village for a while.[15] The animals always enjoy hearing her sing, and she goes to the village often.[16]

Traveling with Marin

While Link is traveling with Marin, there are a few events or pieces of dialogue that are permanently missable if not activated during this time.

  • If Link and Marin go to the Trendy Game Shop, she asks to play.[17] If he accepts, she uses the crane to pick up the Trendy Game Shop Owner. He declares that she must be a pro and that pros are not allowed.[18]
  • Many of the Island Quadruplets comment on the fact that they are traveling together.[19]
  • When Link takes out the Ocarina and plays a song, Marin says that it's not very good and then quickly tries to pretend she didn't say anything.[20]
  • At first, when Link attacks a Cucco, Marin expresses concern for the animal.[21] She continues to say the same line for a while until finally she says, "Do it! Do it moooore!"[22]
  • She makes comments when Link digs with the Shovel, looks through people's drawers, or breaks pots.[23][24][25]
  • Marin refuses to enter a dungeon with Link.[26] When he returns, she asks if he is hurt.[27] If his hearts are low, she is horrified and declares that he is reckless.[28]

Photographs

In the DX version of the game, the Photographer takes three different pictures of Link and Marin together. These photographs cannot be obtained after Link awakens the Walrus and Marin leaves him.

  • At Toronbo Shores, Link and Marin stand on a cliff together, looking out at the ocean. Marin comments on how this is their first walk together.[29] She says that this can be their secret place.[30] The photographer captures the moment and adds it to the Photo Album.[31][32]
  • When Link falls down the well near the entrance to the Mysterious Woods, Marin tumbles after him and crushes him. She quickly apologizes.[33] The Photographer happens to be there, so he takes a photo and calls it "Heads Up!"[34]
  • If Link and Marin pose in front of the weathercock, Tarin arrives and says that everyone should be in the picture, including him.[35] The Photographer tells everyone to "Say mushroom!"[36]

Encounter in the Tal Tal Mountain Range

On his way to Turtle Rock after finishing Eagle's Tower, Link finds Marin trapped on a bridge in the Tal Tal Mountain Range, pleading for help and bemoaning her fear of heights.[37] She claims that monsters put her there.[38] Link can save her by using the Hookshot on the platform behind her. Afterward, she is slightly surprised but she thanks him and begins to tell him something, but then Tarin shows up and calls for her.[39] The Owl then reveals that Marin had sang the ballad for the Wind Fish.[40]

Upon returning to Mabe Village, Link will find Marin near the weathercock again. After thanking him for everything he has done, she admits that she made a wish to the Wind Fish, but she refuses to tell him what it was.[41] She also says that she knows that he will leave someday, and she asks him to never forget her.[42]

Ending

Once Link awakens the Wind Fish, Koholint Island and everyone in it, including Marin, turn out to be a dream.[43] However, if the game is completed without a single death, in the end cutscene, Marin will be seen in the sky. Then she will fly away as a seagull, this referring to the conversation that Link had with Marin on the beach.
