==Story==
[[Onox]], the General of Darkness, has trapped [[Din (Oracle)|Din]], the Oracle of Seasons within his castle.  With Din gone the seasons themselves  are thrown into chaos. [[Link]] must find a way to stop Onox, save Din, and restore order to the land of [[Holodrum]]. With the assistance of the Spirits of the Seasons - Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn, which are located in different towers in the [[Temple of Seasons]] - the seasoned protagonist gains the ability to control the seasons using the [[Rod of Seasons]]. With each dungeon Link takes on, he gains another [[Essence]], which in turns gives the [[Maku Tree]] strength. In retrieving the eighth and final Essence, the Maku Tree gains enough strength to produce the [[Huge Maku Seed]]. Using the Huge Maku Seed, Link is able to infiltrate [[Onox's Castle]]. Upon defeating the reptilian antagonist, and Din is saved, the seasons are returned to normal. Depending on the which game the player chooses to play first when linking the two games, Link either continues on to [[Labrynna]] in ''Oracle of Ages'', or he leaves on a boat, inevitably triggering the events in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]''.

Main article: Oracle of Seasons Story

Onox, the General of Darkness, has trapped Din, the Oracle of Seasons within his castle. With Din gone the seasons are thrown into chaos. Link must find a way to stop Onox, save Din, and restore order to the land of Holodrum. With the assistance of the Season Spirits - Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn, which are located in different towers in the Temple of Seasons(Located in Subrosia) - the seasoned protagonist gains the ability to control the seasons using the Rod of Seasons. With each dungeon Link takes on, he gains another Essence, which in turns gives the Maku Tree strength. In retrieving the eighth and final Essence, the Maku Tree gains enough strength to create the Huge Maku Seed. Using the Huge Maku Seed, Link is able to infiltrate Onox's Castle. Upon defeating the reptilian antagonist, and Din is saved, the seasons are returned to normal. Depending on the which game the player chooses to play first when linking the two games, Link either continues on to Labrynna in Oracle of Ages, or he leaves on a boat.
