The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask

Story

The game starts off as Link, now the Hero of Time, looking for Navi in the Lost Woods. A Skull Kid wearing a mysterious mask and his fairies Tatl and Tael scare Epona and Link is knocked off, unconsious. Skull Kid steals Epona and the Ocarina of Time from Link and rides into the woods. Link follows, and learns Epona has run off, but Skull Kid still has the Ocarina of Time. The Skull Kid turns Link into a Deku Scrub and leaves him and, accidentally, Tatl, behind after leaving. Deku Link and Tatl go on to follow them into a clock tower. They meet the Happy Mask Salesman, who tells them that if they can get the Ocarina back in 3 days, before he has to leave, he can turn Link back into a Hylian, as long as he gets the Skull Kid's mask he stole. Link learns the Skull Kid has caused mischief across the new world he's entered called Termina, and that he is trying to get the Moon to crash into Clock Town and destroy the world at the end of Day 3. Link gets the Ocarina of Time back and uses the Song of Time to transport him and Tatl back to the beginning of Day 1. The Happy Mask Salesman turns Link back to a Hylian, leaving a mask behind to let him turn back to the Deku Scrub whenever he wants. Link now must awaken the 4 Ginats in the 4 compass directinos to prevent the Moon from falling, and must repeat the same 3 days over and over until he can awaken them. After saving the Deku Princess and removing the poison from the Southern Swamp, bringing Snowpeak Mountain to spring, saving the Zora eggs and clearing the fog from Great Bay, and bringing peace to souls in Ikana Canyon. Link stops the Moon from crashing into Termina, but the mask the Skull Kid was wearing, called Majora's Mask and harnessing dark evil powers, takes over the Moon itself. Link lands on the moon by the moon sucking him up because majora him self took over the moon and ate link up the he defeats Majora in his Mask, Wrath, and Incarnate forms. Link then leaves everyone behind to return to Hyrule and continue his search for Navi.The Reason why link was not able to summon his courage and maybe the reason why windwaker had you search for the triforce was because once link left hyrule the elements that made him a hero (the triforce of courage) were removed from him so thus after the majoras mask story hyrule would have prospered until ganondorf was revived (as mentioned in windwaker) during the time that link was in termina hyrule would be facing disaster since in windwaker it said that the hero did not appear when hyrule was in danger. thus was the fall of hyrule and the reason why hyrule was underwater in windwaker.

Characters

There are a lot of characters in this game, but I'm just going to name the important ones. Link(obviously),Tatl(fairy),Skull kid(villain),the Happy Mask Salesman(you must give him Majora's Mask in 3 days), and the 3 characters whose souls you have to save to get their masks. Zelda is in this game, but she only shows up in spirit to teach you the song of time. Most of the characters in this game look a lot like the Ocarina of Time characters, with a few exceptions. For example, Koume and Kotake from Ocarina of Time come back to this game as potion shop owners.

Locations

There are 5 main areas in the world of Termina, where the game takes place, with subareas and dungeons in each. Termina is set up like a compass. The center is Clock Town, the Terminian town with a Clock Tower in its center, that has things a normal village, like Castle Town, would have. There are shops, banks, houses, and even a hotel. In a ring around Clock Town is Termina Field, which reflects the area it is near. In the south is Southern Swamp, a marsh with boat tours, potion shops, and is the home to the Deku Palace, home of the Deku Scrub race. Also in the south, next to the swamp, is Milk Road, which holds the Gorman Track, a horse race track, and Romani Ranch, which holds a farm for cows, a chicken coop, and a dog race track. In the north is Snowhead, a snowy mountain, that holds Termina's smithy. It also is home to the Goron race. There is a Goron race track as well. In the west is Great Bay, which holds the Gerudo Fortress, home to the female Gerudos, who are pirates. There is also Zora Hall, home of the Zora race.
