Ocarina: Difference between revisions

== Ocarinas ==

The flute in A Link to the Past was used to teleport to set locations, but only when in the Light World. When played, a bird would swoop in and carry you away. You could then choose where you wish to jump to. While it was called a Flute in all the English versions, it was called an Ocarina in the Japanese game, and that is the reason it is on this page.

Head back to Kakariko Village in the Light World. Go into one of the first houses on the left and play the flute in front of the old man. He will wake up and ask if you met his son, implying that he is the Flute Boy's father. He will talk to you a bit. Then go outside to the statue of a bird. Play the Flute while standing on the S and facing the bird. The bird will come to life and fly off. Now, all you have to do is play the Flute in the Light World to fly to one of 8 different locations. Voila!

More coming soon!

There are two ocarinas in Ocarina of Time. The first one you get is the [[Fairy Ocarina]], which you receive from [[Saria]] just as you are leaving the [[Kokiri Forest]]. This is only used for the first part of the game, until you get the second ocarina: the [[Ocarina of Time]], which the game is named after. You receive this ocarina from [[Princess Zelda]] herself. After you have received the three spiritual stones: the [[Kokiri Emerald]], the [[Goron's Ruby]], and the [[Zora's Sapphire]], you will head back to [[Hyrule Castle Town]], only to find the drawbridge is up. Then a cutscene will show the drawbridge dropping, and the princess riding out on a horse with [[Impa]]. Zelda will throw the Ocarina of Time into the moat. Then you will meet [[Ganon]] face to face for the first time. After the cutscene is over, swim into the river and dive down to collect the Ocarina. A vision will occur and Zelda will teach you a song, which will be discussed later.

The ocarina in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' is the same as the one in OOT: the Ocarina of Time. It is stolen from you shortly after the start of the game by the skull kid. You must retrieve it from him by the end of the first three days. Then you will remember the Song of Time, and you must play it to return to the Dawn of the First Day. This cycle is repeated endlessly throughout the game; playing through 3 days, before playing the Song of Time and returning to the Dawn of the First Day.

In the ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap|The Minish Cap]]'', the Ocarina you get is a brand new one, not used in any other game. It is called the Ocarina of Wind. It is used in a similar fashion to the Flute/ocarina in Link to the Past, except before you can fly to a location, you must first have examined a statue, which will cause it to blow up and reveal a symbol. This is called a Wind Crest. There are eight Wind Crests in The Minish Cap.

== Ocarina Songs ==

There were only three songs in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|Link's Awakening]]'', but this was a first: multiple songs to be played on an instrument. In A Link to the Past, there was only one song to be played on the ocarina. The songs are as follows:

There are thirteen songs that you learn on the ocarina in Ocarina of Time. They are as follows:

   

There are another thirteen songs in Majora's Mask, and some are the same or similar to OOT. They are as follows:
