1. Introduction
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
In the course of running my web site, The Legends of Zelda, I found that
it would be helpful to have every important quote from the Zelda games
written down exactly the way it appears in the game. Why? Well, when
you're arguing your point of view about the storyline, it helps to have
quotes to back you up. It's not helpful to say, "I think somebody said
this," and then base a theory upon it. Also, the ability to copy and
paste quotes would make my life, and many other lives, a lot easier. So,
the idea for the Zelda Quote FAQs was born.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
2. How to use this FAQ
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
It's quite simple, really. All quotes are written out exactly as they
appear on the screen, line breaks and all. The name of the person talking
and a short description of the situation appear in all caps above each
quote. Two hard returns after a block of text indicates that the next
block is on the next screenful of text within the game.
Phrases that appear in parentheses () are not part of the quote. They are
either: responses to a question asked of Link, which the user chooses; a
message from the game (such as description of a newly-obtained item);
a brief description of something that happened during the quote; a
description of the formatting of the text - (shouting), for example; or
a quote that only appears in the second quest of TWW. Most gameplay
instructions are ommitted because they have nothing to do with the story.
The quotes are arranged in chronological order (i.e. the logical flow of
the game). Each section of quotes will eventually be divided into several
parts: main quotes (the important ones you have to get through to play
through the game), miscellaneous quotes (which you find by talking to
random people), and Tingle Tuner quotes (these are things Tingle tells you if
you're using the Tingle Tuner).
To find a quote by a specific person, use your text viewer's Find
function (usually Edit-Find or Control-F). The quotes are listed in
chronological order (i.e. the logical flow of the game), so you can also
try to find a specific quote by scrolling through the whole FAQ or
going to a specific section.
NOTE: If you're not interested in the storyline of the Zelda games, this
FAQ isn't for you. You won't find any tips or hints about the gameplay
in this FAQ.

• Version 1.1 - Released 4/6/04
I should have released this loooong ago... But various things got
in the way. TSA never got his typed quotes to me, so I unfortunately
cannot include them. Iron Knuckle typed up the Nintendo Gallery
descriptions, and that's pretty much the only new content. The only
other changes are a few fixed typos. This will probably be the final
(typed) version, seeing how I will be making a Wind Waker text dump
soon.
• Version 1.0 - Released 5/30/03
This first version of the FAQ has all the main, important quotes
that you need to see in order to beat the game. This alone is a LOT
of quotes. However, the FAQ is still not complete. I do not have
very many quotes from people you randomly talk to in the game.
These are being typed up by TSA and will hopefully make it into the
next version of the FAQ. I have few letters typed up, and no Tingle
Tuner quotes. I do, however, have the Fishman quotes typed up, thanks
to Gansura.

THE LEGEND CONTINUES (p. 6):
Long ago, there existed a kingdom where a golden power lay hidden. One day, a
man of great evil found this power and took it for himself, and with it at his
command, he spread darkness across the kingdom. But then...just as all hope had
died, a young boy clothed in green appeared as if from nowhere. Wielding a blade
that repelled evil, he sealed the dark one away and gave the land light. This boy,
who traveled through time to save the land, was known as the Hero of Time. The
boy's tale was passed down through generations until it became legend.
And then a day came when a fell wind began to blow across the kingdom, and the
great evil once again crept forth from the depths of the earth. The people believed
that the Hero of Time would again come to save them. But the hero did not appear...
What became of that kingdom...? None remain who know. The memory of the
kingdom vanished, but its legend survived on the wind's breath.
On a certain island, it became customary to garb young boys in green when they
come of age. Clothed in the green of fields, they aspire to find heroic blades and
cast evil down. The elders wish only for the youths to know courage like the hero of
legend...
OVERHEARD IN WINDFALL CAFE... (p.7):
Even in my wildest dreams, I never could've imagined what happened to
us! See, it all started when our leader, Miss Tetra, got kidnapped by a
gigantic bird. We chased after that thing like mad, at crazy speeds, and
when we finally caught up to it, we gave it a cannon blast like you
wouldn't believe! Of course, that was quite a ways south from here, yeah?
Somewhere down near Outset Island. So anyway, then that bird drops our
precious Miss at the very tip-top of the island. Well, I went ashore in a
hurry to look for the Miss, yeah? And you know what? Miss Tetra didn't
have a scratch on her!
When I found her, there was this odd little kid dressed in green there, too...
We met this postman on the island, and from what he told us, it was that
kid in green who saved Miss Tetra. And apparently the bird that
kidnapped Miss Tetra mistook this poor kid's sister for our young Miss,
and kidnapped her instead. So this kid tells us pirates he wants a ride from
us so he can go save his sister, yeah? Well I was against the idea, of
course, but as usual, Miss Tetra's whimsy won out...
So you wanna know how things turned out? Well, it's a long tale...

INTRO:
This is but one of the legends of which the
people speak...
Long ago, there existed a kingdom where
a golden power lay hidden.
It was a prosperous land blessed with green
forests, tall mountains, and peace.
But one day a man of great evil found the
golden power and took it for himself...
With its strength at his command, he
spread darkness across the kingdom.
But then, when all hope had died, and the
hour of doom seemed at hand...
...a young boy clothed in green appeared
as if from nowhere.
Wielding the blade of evil's bane, he sealed
the dark one away and gave the land light.
This boy, who traveled through time to save
the land, was known as the Hero of Time.
The boy's tale was passed down through
generations until it became legend...
But then...a day came when a fell wind
began to blow across the kingdom.
The great evil that all thought had
been forever sealed away by the hero...
...once again crept forth from the depths of
the earth, eager to resume its dark designs.
The people believed that the Hero of Time
would again come to save them.
...But the hero did not appear.
Faced by an onslaught of evil, the people
could do nothing but appeal to the gods.
In their last hour, as doom drew nigh, they
left their future in the hands of fate.
What became of that kingdom...?
None remain who know.
The memory of the kingdom vanished, but
its legend survived on the wind's breath.
On a certain island, it became customary to
garb boys in green when they came of age.
Clothed in the green of fields, they aspired
to find heroic blades and cast down evil.
The elders wished only for the youths to
know courage like the hero of legend...
ARYLL:
Big brother!
(shouting)
Big brother!!
(found Link)
Big Brother!
(Link gets up)
I knew you'd be here!
Hee hee hee! This is my FAVORITE spot to
gaze out at the sea. When I play with the
gulls, I call it "Aryll's Lookout."
So, do you remember what day it is today?
...You're still half-asleep, aren't you?
Did you forget?
Big Brother, it's your birthday!
That's why Grandma has been waiting for
you to come back to the house! She's been
waiting for a while now...
It's a good thing I came to find you!
You should probably go home and see what
Grandma wants, don't you think?
GRANDMA:
I've been waiting for you, Link.
(FIRST QUEST:
Link...
Try these on.
Time certainly flies... I can't believe you're
already old enough to wear these clothes.
(You got the Hero's Clothes!
They look like they might be a little
warm for this weather...)
Don't look so disappointed, dear one!
Just try them on.
Today is a day to celebrate! It is the day
that you become the same age as the young
hero spoken of in all the legends.
You only have to wear them for one day, so
don't look so down. Be proud, child!)
(SECOND QUEST:
Here you are, Link.
Try these on!
These are special clothes...made of a
special fabric that only the honest can see!
Time certainly flies... I can't believe you're
already old enough to wear these clothes.
(You got the Hero's New Clothes...
What the...?
Wow! They're really light...)
What's the matter? Why the long face?
You CAN see them, can't you? Hm hm hm...
Well, today is the day we commemorate
the fact that you've reach the same age
as the hero of the legends! You have to be
proud about that for at least one day!
Put them on and see if you can't fool
anybody in town!)
In the olden days, this was the day boys
were finally considered to be men. They
were taught the ways of the sword to
prepare them for battle with their enemies.
But we don't live in such an age any
longer... Our ways are the ways of peace.
Nowadays, I suppose Orca is the only one
on the island who still knows anything
about swordplay.
Hanging the family shield on the wall as
decoration is another tradition that has
been carried down from those days.
Does all this make sense to you?
Isn't that nice, Link? They suit
you perfectly! A perfect fit!
Well, tonight I'm going to invite the whole
town over for your birthday party, so I'd
better start getting ready, shouldn't I?
Your grandma is going to make your
favorite soup for you tonight! Mmmm!
I just know you're looking forward to it!
Now, go get your sister, Aryll.
ARYLL:
Ah! 'Hoy, Big Brother!
Did Grandma make that outfit for you?
You always wear the same outfit...
I think you need a new look...
I guess they're pretty neat, though!
So, anyway, Link...
Can you close your eyes and hold out
your hand? Just for a second!
I'm going to give you my most treasured
belonging...but just for one day!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
(You got the Telescope!
This is your sister's most precious
belonging. Treasure it dearly!)
So? Well?! Do you like it?
I'm letting you borrow this special gift
just because you're my big brother!
Aren't you luck?! Hee hee hee!
Ooh, why don't you try it out! Right now!
Try looking over at our house from here!
(look at postman, who suddenly goes frantic)
AAAAAHH!! Link!
The sky! Look up in the sky!
(Helmaroc King gets hit, drops Tetra into forest)
Link, this is so terrible! That girl
fell into the forest! She needs help!
...But it's too dangerous for you to go in
there without something you can use to
defend yourself with!
ORCA:
Oh! What is the matter, Link?
You have an urgent look about you...
Has something happened?
Whatever it is, from the look on your face
I suspect it is no laughing matter...
What say you, Link?
Ah. Have you come for some serious
instruction in the way of the sword?
(go through training)
And yet...I sense a certain anxiousness
in the sword you hold...an eagerness that
goes far beyond the mere desire to be
wielded on the fields of battle...
I do no know what has happened...
But I have faith in you. Somehow, I doubt
you will misuse that sword...
You may have it, Link. I give it
freely. Take the blade with you...
(You accepted the Hero's Sword!
Use it wisely and carefully... You
don't want to let down the kind old
man who has entrusted it to you!)
Since the olden days, this sword has been
used to fend off evil...
Its blade is infused with the desire to
become strong and righteous.
Be strong, Link.
SIGN BY BRIDGE:
Fairy Fountain Site Ahead
Increase your fortune!
SIGN BY FAIRY FOUNTAIN:
Fairy Fountain Site
This spot marks the remains of an ancient
fairy fountain. The legendary hero was said
to come here after battle so the fairies
could ease his weariness.
It was also said that whoever met with the
Great Fairy who lived here was blessed
with great fortune, so it came to be known
as the Fountain of the Fortune Goddess.
TETRA, WAKING UP AND FALLING DOWN FROM TREE:
Ooowwwcchh!
Wow. What's with that get-up?
Well, whatever. So, where am I...?
Oh, that's right! That giant bird came and...
PIRATE:
Miss!
Miss Tetra!
Oh! Oh thank... Thank goodness!
You're safe!
When I saw you get dropped on this summit,
I thought for sure you'd...
TETRA:
Summit?
So that bird dropped me on the top of
a mountain?
Well, wasn't that nice of it!
Well, don't just stand there!
Let's go!
Time to repay our debt to that bird in full!
PIRATE:
But, Miss... What about this boy?
TETRA:
Don't worry about him. Come on!
ARYLL:
'Hoy, Big Brother!
(Helmaroc King snatches her)
Brother!!!
TETRA, CATCHING LINK:
Uhhn! Stupid kid!
Get ahold of yourself! She's gone.
There's nothing you can do.
TETRA, BY SHIP:
What?!?
You want to come with us on our ship?
Do you understand what you're asking?
We're pirates! You know... PIRATES!
The terror of the seas!
What do we get out of bringing some
helpless little kid along with us?
I'll tell you what we get...a headache.
I know how you must feel, with your
sister having been kidnapped and all...
But that doesn't really have anything to
do with us, now does it?
RITO:
And how do you figure that...?
PIRATE:
Whoa, whoa, whoa there! Just who are
you?! Where do you get off butting in on
someone else's conversation?!
RITO:
Please! All I mean to say is that if you
big, bad pirates hadn't come to this quiet
little island...
That poor girl wouldn't have been snatched
away by that bird.
TETRA:
And just what do you mean by that?
RITO:
Just be quiet for a moment, and I'll tell you!
Now, as my work entails delivering letters,
I spend much of my time traveling amongst
the many different islands. As a result,
I hear many things...
Haven't any of you heard word that young
girls have been getting kidnapped lately
from all regions of the Great Sea?
No matter. Whether you've heard it or not,
that seems to be the case. Young girls with
long ears like yours have been getting
kidnapped, never to be seen again.
And unless my eyes fail me, the young girl
who was just kidnapped from this island
also has long ears, does she not? Much
like YOU do, Miss Fearsome Pirate.
My point is that the bird mistook that poor
girl for you, and that's why it grabbed her!
TETRA:
......
RITO:
And correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe it
was young Link here who saved
you from the monsters in the forest,
wasn't it?
TETRA:
...Is this true?
RITO:
Oh! And while I'm at it...
I may as well tell you that the bird that
kidnapped both you and Link's
sister has made its foul nest to the north,
on the heights of the Forsaken Fortress.
TETRA:
The Forsaken Fortress?!
Isn't that the place where...
RITO:
So, what are you going to do?
Under the circumstances, I don't think it
would be unreasonable for you to give
Link a little help, now, would it?
TETRA:
Hmph... I don't need you to tell me that!
Even if I were to consider it...
Lately, I've heard nothing but evil rumors
about this Forsaken Fortress...
You can't possibly mean to go there with
nothing but that cheap little sword!
That's not brave! It's stupid!
I mean, come on! Even a simple little island
like this has to have something you could
use as a shield. You know, something to
protect yourself with? Anything?
Tell you what. If you come back with
something like that, we'll let you stow
away on our ship.
Oh, and one more thing: once we leave,
you won't be coming back here for a while,
so you'd better go say good-bye to your
family while you have the chance.
I don't want you getting all weepy-eyed
and homesick on me!
GRANDMA:
What is it, Link? Please...
Tell Grandma what's troubling you.
And where's Aryll...? Is she still
playing outside with the gulls?
(Link finds the shield missing)
Link...
Is this what you're looking for?
...Take it with you.
(You got the Hero's Shield!
This is the legendary shield said to
have been used by the hero himself!)
I guess it is true... Aryll really has been
kidnapped... Hasn't she?
What kind of monster could take such a
sweet, young child?
TETRA:
Wow, that's a decrepit old shield...
Are you sure you can still use that thing?
Are you going to get splinters and cry?
Well, whatever...
If you're ready, then let's go!
Are you ready?
VILLAGERS:
Good luck Link!
Good luck finding Aryll!
Take care of yourself!
TETRA:
Ugh... How much longer is this going to go
on, do you think? Do you have an estimate?
Are you sure you shouldn't just quit right
now? Seriously, think about it.
I can tell you're just going to get more
sentimental from here on out.
There's still time, you know...
Are you sure we shouldn't just turn around
and take you back to your island?

NIKO:
Oh! Well now! Ahoy there, swabbie!
As of today... EH-HEH-AHEM!
I am your superior... Niko! Now, I promise I'll
go easy on you, so you do as I say, OK?
Right! Now, first off you have to take the
test all new pirates have to take. It's a bit
of a doozy, so get ready!
You watch everything I'm about to show you
real careful-like so you can cram it into
your no-doubt mushy swabbie brain!
First off, you gotta press this switch.
This is the only easy part.
(steps on switch)
Now, check it out! After the platforms rise
up from the floor, you gotta jump on them!
(jumps to first platform)
OK, so I was able to jump to this first one
myself...but that next one is too far, right?
That's when you gotta do THIS!
(swing on rope)
So, do you think you get how to do it?
You have to swing from platform to
platform and try to get to the entrance
of that room over there!
Here's the problem, though, swabbie!
The platforms only stay raised for a little
while, so if you don't get there by the time
they drop, you have to start over!
It will probably take you at least one year
before you're good enough to make it all
the way here. One rough year. One tough
year, full of bumps and bruises.
Of course, if you manage to do it faster,
I'll reward you!
Now, give it a try! This ought to be good
for a chuckle or two!
(do the obstacle course)
Whaaaaat!?? You did it already???
.........
I... I... I'm proud to have you as...
As my... As my underling!
(to himself)
I... I wonder if it's OK to just give that to him...
...I don't see why not... I doubt I'll get busted...
(to Link)
All right, swabbie! I'll tell you what!
You can have the treasure in that chest
over there! It's your reward from the great
and generous Niko!
Hurry and take it before someone comes!
(You got the Spoils Bag!
You can keep the items you get from
enemies in this handy pouch.)
TETRA:
Hey! Link! We've reached the
Forsaken Fortress! Hurry and get up here!
(go outside)
Hey! Link!
Here I am! Up here!
(climb)
What were you doing with Niko?
Don't tell me you were playing some stupid
game for treasure...were you?
...Well, whatever!
There's something you need to see!
Have a look over there...
That's the cursed isle known as the
Forsaken Fortress.
There are all sorts of strange rumors about
this place. What I do know is that long
ago, it used to be the hideout of a no-good
group of pirates we used to compete with...
But they were just small-time. Now, the
place looks like it's pretty dangerous.
Ah! I knew it! Look!
Over there! By that window!
Have you ever seen so many seagulls flock
like that before?
...I'll bet you anything that's the place
where they've got your sister locked up!
...But it looks like the whole place is under
really tight guard.
This won't work... We'd be spotted before
we go anywhere near landing there.
Hmmm... What do we do now?
(Link in barrel!)
Look, don't struggle. If you really want to
get into a dangerous place like that, this is
the only way to do it. Trust me.
We pirates do this all the time. Don't worry
about it! It'll be a piece of cake!
Is everybody ready!?
Never you fear, kid. We're pros. We're going
to launch you good!

(launch! smack! sword falls)
(through stone)
Your sword landed all the way up there?
Shoot! I'm sorry! I apologize! I guess my aim
was off by a little bit.
Heh heh... The look on your face... Priceless!
Heh heh... I slipped this stone into your
pocket just before we fired you over there.
It's no ordinary stone, either.
I can see what you're doing through this
stone, and obviously you can hear me
through it.
Hey, but listen carefully! I need this back
after you save your sister, so don't go
losing it, you understand?!
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
-- 5.3 Forsaken Fortress ---
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
TETRA, THROUGH THE STONE:
Listen up, Link...
There's a monster running the searchlight
up there!
If you can slay the monster, then just
maybe it'll shut the searchlight down.
Oh...but you're unarmed, aren't you?
All you have is a shield...
If I were you, I'd try to use my shield to
deflect the monster's blows and see if I
could make it drop its weapon. If you did
that, you could pick up its weapon.
...But that's just me. What'll you do?
TETRA, THROUGH THE STONE:
Ah-hah! I've got it, Link!
In order to reach the top of the tower where
your sister's being held, you'll have to find
the room right below the tower. The path to
the tower begins in the rear of that room!
You got that?
(You got back the Hero's Sword you
dropped! Now you're in business!
Take care not to drop it again!)
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
--- 5.4 After Forsaken Fortress ---
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
KING OF RED LIONS:
Link... Link...
Wake up, Link!
Pull yourself together, Link!
Well? Have you come to your senses yet?
You are surprisingly dull-witted...
Did I startle you?
I suppose that is only natural. As wide
as the world is, I am the only boat upon
it who can speak the words of men.
I am the King of Red Lions.
Do not fear... I am not your enemy.
Link...
I have been watching you since you went to
the Forsaken Fortress to rescue your sister.
I understand how your desire to protect
your sister could give you the courage to
fearlessly stand up to anything...
But such a bold attempt was foolhardy!
I suppose you saw him... The shadow that
commands that monstrous bird...
His name is...Ganon...
...He who obtained the power of the gods,
attempted to cover the land in darkness,
and was ultimately sealed away by the
very power he hoped to command.
He is the very same Ganon...
The emperor of the dark realm the ancient
legends speak of...
I do not know why the seal of the gods has
failed, but now that Ganon has
returned, the world is once again being
threatened by his evil magic.
Tell me, Link...
Do you still wish to save your sister
from him?
(Link nods)
And will you do anything to save her?
(Link nods twice)
...I see.
In that case, I shall guide you as we go
forward...advising you on what you should
do, and where you must go.
Ganon cannot be defeated by human
hands, let alone by what little strength
you possess.
The key to defeating Ganon is locked
away in a great power that you can wield
only after much toil and hardship.
Do you understand?
(Link nods)
In that case, we depart!
To the Great Sea!
...Ah, but I am getting ahead of myself.
This is actually a bit embarrassing for me
to admit, but...although I am indeed a boat
that possesses the power of speech...
I possess no sail.
And a boat with no sail can sail no seas.
I have brought you far to the east of the
dark gaze of the Forsaken Fortress. On this
island is a town of merchants who deal in
a wide variety of goods.
If you search hard enough, surely you can
find one who will sell you a sail.
I am sorry to ask this of you, but without
a sail, I will be useless to you.
This island of merchants is home to many
valuable goods.
While the sail must come first, do you feel
limited to buying only it. Once you have it,
feel free to stock up on anything else you
think you may need.
But remember: there is no time to play.
Come back here immediately as soon as
your errands are done.
ZUNARI:
My story is a strange one... I came across
cursed seas from a land far away...a land
where the blizzards blow violently...heading
for this town called Windfall.
But dear me! As I traveled, a terrible storm
descended and tore my ship to bits...yet
mysteriously, only that escaped without
so much as a mark on it...
From the looks of you, I would say you
are a traveler as well. Oh, yes indeed!
...Could you not purchase that from me?
It is my one and only heirloom from home.
The people of this town do not seem the
least bit interested in that, despite the
fact that it would help them travel the
dangerous seas about their town...
Please! I beg of you! I wish to open a
business here in this town, so I am in
desperate need of finances!
How does...80 Rupees sound?
(buy)
Yes, yes, yes! Thank you very much, indeed!
I have received precisely 80 Rupees for it.
I can use these funds to finance my new
business! Oh, dear me, what a happy day!
Very well, young master... As I promised,
please! Take that!!!
(get a boat's sail)
Yes, yes, yes! You have made a good
purchase today, my young master!
And you have saved my life and business
as well! Treasure it dearly! It is the finest
sail in the world! Treat it as such!
TINGLE:
Hoo hoo hoooooooooo! If my appearance
does not surprise you...
then you, sir, must be a fairy, just
like Tingle!
Goodness! Did you feel my telepathy?!
That's why you saved me, isn't it?
Isn't it? Isn't it?
Do not worry! Tingle knows without you
telling him, sir! Yes, sir!
Tingle is my name! I have been looking for
you and your kind, for I, too, long to be
one of the fairy folk!
And yet, I was mistaken for some kind of
troublemaker and put into this dreadful
sort of place!
How disrespectful!
Please, Mr. Fairy... Rescue poor Tingle from
this place and take him to where you and
your kind live in splendor!
(free him)
Hoorayyyy! Thank you oh so VERRRY much!
Here is Tingle's heartfelt gift of thanks!
Tingle! Tingle!
Kooloo-limpah!
Become an item!
(get Tingle Tuner)
Now, no matter how far we travel from this
dingy cell, our souls will be as one!
Splendid! Tingle is going to get ready to
go to the realm of the fairies, so you just
wait here, OK, sir?
Ahhh! I was forgetting something important!
Oh, Mr. Fairy! You want to come to my
island, don't you?
Don't you? Don't you?
(get Tingle's Chart)
When you go out to sea, open it!
If you ever need any help with your charts,
just leave it to Tingle! Don't ever forget it!
If you ever need help with charts...
Don't forget it!
STONE BY PICTO BOX:
Date: Unknown
At last, I have succeeded in stealing the
[r]Picto Box[r] I have desired for so long.
Succeeded, yes... but sadly...
Due to a slight mistake on my part, I was
also caught. I have been imprisoned, but
I do not give in easily! I refuse to
give this wondrous box to my captors!
I have decided to hide it here in the
depths of my cell and then make my
escape by tunneling out. Yes! That is
my plan!
STONE BY PICTO BOX:
Of course, if I ever successfully escape from
this prison, I shall one day return to recover
the Picto Box. I will write the controls
for it in case I should forget them...
Set it to Y, Z, or X on the items
screen. Press A to snap shots. Use C to
zoom in and out. Press R to switch to its
delightful pictograph-viewing mode.
It saves up to three pictographs at one
time. Oh, how it pains me to leave it!
...I just wish I could get out of here
so I could start taking pictographs!
KING OF RED LIONS:
Oh! That look in your eye... So, you've
found yourself a sail, have you?
Very well! Then I shall teach you the
art of sailing!
(teaches you how to sail)
Now! A westerly wind blows! Hop in and
let it carry us to the east!
(sail to Dragon Roost Island)
There! On the horizon!
That is our destination, Link...
Dragon Roost Island!
High atop this island's peak lives the
spirit of the skies...a great dragon by the
name of Valoo.
You must see this dragon and request
from him a jewel called Din's Pearl.
Ask the people of the Rito tribe who inhabit
this island about how to see the dragon.
Oh, I almost forgot! Wait just a moment!
This is the Wind Waker! It is a baton of
sorts that was used long ago when the
people played music in prayer to the gods.
In those days, simply using it allowed one
to borrow the power of the gods, but
I do not know if it still works.
Even so, I thought it might be of some use
to you. Perhaps you should try using it.
(learn how to use it)
(You received the legendary
Wind Waker! By using this magical
conductor's baton, you can borrow
the power of the gods!)
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
--- 5.5 Dragon Roost Island ---
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
QUILL:
Link?
Link, is that you?
It is! I'm pleased to see you're OK.
I must say...
You've traveled far for one with no wings...
And your sister? Is she...
Is that so?
Well, don't worry too much.
I'm sure she'll hang in there.
I have an idea, Link.
Would you like to meet our chieftain?
I've told my people here about you, and
all of us Rito are very concerned.
I'm certain the chieftain will befriend you
and lend you the aid of our aerie.
It's settled, then! I'll fly on ahead and let
everyone know you're coming.
Come inside, Link!
I'll be waiting!
RITO CHIEFTAIN:
Well? Have you discovered the cause of
the great Valoo's anger?
Ah. So, you are Link, are you?
Quill has told me all about you.
A troubling tale, indeed...
I insist that you let us know if there is
anything we can do to help you.
We shall do everything in our power to
assist you.
However, in the meantime, we have a
problem of our own to deal with...
When you arrived on the island, did you
notice the raging dragon perched atop
the mountain?
As you can see, we of the Rito tribe are
profoundly connected to the sky. We make
our livings on the airways.
We do so by the graces of the sky spirit,
Valoo. When a Rito reaches adulthood, he
or she journeys to the top of Dragon Roost
to receive a scale from the great dragon.
It is this scale that enables the Rito to
grow his or her wings.
Recently, however, the once-gentle Valoo
has grown violent and unpredictable.
Sadly, we can no longer approach him.
If this continues, the fledglings who are of
age will never be able to receive scales
from Valoo on Dragon Roost.
They will remain wingless, and in time,
our very way of life will be threatened.
As chieftain of the Rito, my first
responsibility is to solve this problem.
My apologies, but I must ask you to wait
for our assistance until this is done.
Will you do so?
QUILL:
Chieftain, what do you think of consulting
Link with regards to your son,
Prince Komali?
As you can see, Link is a
gallant young lad!
I feel certain that Prince Komali would
open his heart to him and speak freely
of his fears and worries.
RITO CHIEFTAIN:
(to himself)
That may be...
(to Link)
Let me be direct. My son, Komali, is of the
age to earn his wings...
Yet...he is weak, in some ways...and in light
of the current situation, he may just give
up on ever getting them...
What say you?
Will you share some of your courage
with my son?
Will you meet with my son?
I thank you!
We shall do our best to solve our problem
as quickly as possible, so that we may
better help you with yours.
I have something I wish for you to give to
my son.
A young girl named Medli is holding it for
me. Would you find her and take it?
I am counting on you!
QUILL:
Here, Link, take this with you!
Who knows? It might come in handy.
(You got a Delivery Bag!
Finely crafted bags like this are
used by Rito postmen everywhere!
With so many pockets, it can hold
many items.)
You should find Medlie in one of the
upper rooms.
Leave the great Valoo to us.
In the meanwhile, do your best to aid
Prince Komali!
MEDLI:
Wow! You really DO have blue clothes...
with a picture of a crawfish on them!
You're Link, right?
Oh, me? I'm an attendant to the great sky
spirit, Valoo. My name is Medli.
Well, to tell the truth...
I'm not an attendant quite yet. I'm actually
still studying to be one.
Oh, what am I thinking! Here! This is from
the chieftain.
Link, he wants you to give this
directly to Prince Komali.
(You accepted Father's Letter!
It is a letter from a father
addressed to his son.
Since you've just received a fine
Delivery Bag, why not use it to carry
this letter down to Komali?)
The room way in the back on the first floor
is Prince Komali's room. You have to go
down a couple steps to get there.
When you meet Prince Komali, please don't
get offended by his manner.
He has no bad intentions, I promise.
By the way, ummmm...
Listen, Link...
I have a small favor I'd like to ask
of you...
Could you please come to the entrance of
Dragon Roost Cavern later?
...I'll explain everything then.
KOMALI:
Huh? Who are you supposed to be?
(talk again)
What do you wnat from me, huh?
I... I don't want to talk to anyone right now!
(show him Father's Letter)
A letter?
From my father?
Oh, sure, telling me to be brave is easy
enough for him...
It's not like he's the one who went through
that horrible experience... It's not like HE
still has to go get a scale from Valoo.
You're in this letter, too, you know...
Poking your nose in other people's
business... You're nosy, aren't you?
Sorry, but I really don't feel like going to
see Valoo right now.
I mean, how am I supposed to get a scale
from him when he's so upset?
What? Are you trying to say that YOU can
calm Valoo down?
Psssssh! That's just a big, fat lie!
It's easy to SAY you can do anything!
Bragging doesn't cost a thing!
I'll tell you what: If you can find me
someone who can get past all the obstacles
on Dragon Roost to get to Valoo...
THEN I'll listen to anything you say!
(talk again)
What?
Oh, this...?
It's strange... Holding this calms me down.
I forget all the bad things.
It's so pretty, isn't it? It's called Din's
Pearl. My grandma gave it to me.
My grandma used to be Valoo's attendant.
She was the only person on the island who
understood Valoo's language.
Oh, Grandma... If she were here, I know she
could calm Valoo down. I just know it...
But my father and the rest? No matter how
hard they try...they'll fail. I know it.
No one else can calm Valoo down.
It's impossible...
What? What is it, huh?
Listen, you can stare all you want, but
I'm not giving this to you.
This is MY treasure. You understand?
I'm not going to just hand it over to some
do-nothing guy, am I?
(talk again)
What?
You can stop staring any time now!
I'm not giving this to you!
There's no one out there who can get Valoo
to settle down...so just go away and let
me be miserable by myself.
MEDLI:
Hey, you actually came!
I'm really sorry for bringing you to such a
dangerous place. I had to! I wouldn't have
asked if I didn't need help desperately.
You see this place? There used to be a
spring here. surrounded by a beautiful
pond... It was peaceful and lovely...
But then the great Valoo...
He became so angry, and...
In his rage, he shook the mountain and this
boulder crashed down, plugging the spring.
You can see the result.
Oh, but where is my mind? Tell me,
how was Prince Komali?
(to herself)
Oh... That doesn't sound right... Not at all...
(to Link)
I may be partially to blame for the bad
turn that Prince Komali's taken...
See, Prince Komali's grandmother was the
great Valoo's former attendant.
She was an amazing woman. I was honored
to have her as my teacher...
She was kind and brave, and unsurpassed
in her dealings with the great Valoo.
I'm not worthy of being mentioned
in the same breath as her.
If only I'd possessed some of her strength,
I'm sure Prince Komali would have felt
more secure.
Link, I'm sorry to ask this...
but I need your help!
I want to go to the small shrine that's
near the peak of Dragon Roost, but that
ledge over there is so high...
If I could get some wind under my wings,
I'm sure I could get up there.
So...
Will you help me?
(I don't think so)
Oh, please? I wouldn't ask if it wasn't
important! It's just that...I'm not that good
at flying yet...
(Sure)
Whew... Thank you so much!
OK, pick me up.
Then face that ledge and toss me!
The atmospheric currents are really messed
up, so pay close attention to the direction
of the wind.
All right, I'm ready!
Don't hold back, now!
Throw me as hard as you can!
(successful throw)
Oh, thank you!
I think now I'll be able to climb Dragon
Roost and meet with the great Valoo!
Don't worry, I'll be fine!
I may just be an apprentice attendant, but
I can understand some of the great
Valoo's language.
(to herself)
I'm not exactly bursting with confidence, but...
(to Link)
Look, if anything happens to me...
Please look after Prince Komali!
This is all I have to give you. I know it's
not much, but please take it!
(get empty bottle)
Oh, and please don't tell anyone that I'm
climbing Dragon Roost!
It'll be our secret, OK?
Well, good luck!
...To both of us.
QUILL:
Link, do you know Medli?
Just now, some fellow told me that he
saw some unfamiliar creatures near
Dragon Roost Cavern...
He said that they grabbed a girl that
looked like Medli...
...Which is odd, because I know Medli can't
fly well enough to get to the Dragon Roost
Cavern entrance by herself. So I figure it
must be some sort of mix-up.
It IS a bit disconcerting, though...
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
--- 5.6 Dragon Roost Cavern ---
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
KING OF RED LIONS, THROUGH CRYSTAL:
Link, have you seen any filthy,
thieving rats around?
I know they are annoying, but keep your
wits about you... they are only rats!
If you spread bait near their nest,
they may share their store of treasure
with you. Why don't you try it?
MEDLI:
Link!
You came to rescue me!
Oh, thank you!
I have to tell you what I found out!
This is terrible!
...Some creature is doing awful things to
the great Valoo's tail!
That's why he's so angry!
The great Valoo's tail hangs down into the
room right below here.
There's got to be something in there...
I wonder if those mean monsters who
captured me have something to do with it...
We've got to do something! Now! Before it's
too late!
I'll go and tell everyone what's happening!
Here, Link!
Use this to get out of here!
It's what I used to get this far.
It's a device we Rito used before we
evolved wings.
(You got the Grappling Hook!
This was an item used by the
Rito people before they had wings.)
Here, Link. Climb up on that
little ledge over there, so I can show
you something.
Grab this branch with the Grappling Hook
and you can swing over there to get out
of this area!
Don't you worry about me, Link.
Get going!
MEDLI, AFTER BEATING DRAGON ROOST CAVERN:
Link!
Well, Prince Komali? Don't you have
something you want to say?
KOMALI:
Um, I heard everything from Medli...
Link... Thank you so much!
I'm sorry I mistrusted you!
I hope I can be like you someday,
Link.
MEDLI:
You will, Komali! I just know it!
Right, Link?
KOMALI:
So, Link? ...Here!
I want you to take this, Link!
Giving you the thing I value most will
give me the courage I need to stand up to
bad things!
(You received Din's Pearl!
This is the gem the Ritos claim was
passed down from the great
goddess!)
MEDLI:
The great Valoo is grateful to you,
Link.
VALOO:
(O Hero! Thank you!
O Hero! Use the wind god's wind!)
MEDLI:
Use the wind god's...wind?
That's what he said, but I don't understand.
I wonder what it means?
The wind god's wind... I wonder if what
he's talking about has anything to do with
the Wind Shrine that's through that tunnel...
Oh, I almost forgot! The great Valoo also
names you, Link, a true hero.
I agree with him. As far as we're concerned,
Link, you really ARE a hero!
KOMALI:
Well, I'm going to go and visit Valoo!
I'll come and see you sometime--with the
best pair of wings ever!
MEDLI:
Hey! Prince Komali!
Thanks so much, Link.
See you again someday!
KING OF RED LIONS:
It would seem that Ganon sent those
monsters to this place.
But that would mean...
There is no time to lose! We must depart at
once for the place where the next pearl
sleeps! We sail to the south!
(talk again)
...Unfortunately, we cannot depart until the
wind blows to the south.
It would be a fatal mistake to set sail
under an unstable breeze.
I have heard legends that tell of a wind god
who once resided on this island...
Have you heard nothing of him?
ZEPHOS:
(learn the Wind's Requiem)
Yep! That's a miiiiiighty nice breeze!
The name's Zephos.
I'm the god of winds.
So, you're the new Wind Waker, are you?
Great, great. For a beginner, you've got a
nice wind-sense about you.
I like you, kid!
That tune you just picked up?
Well, it gives you control over the direction
the wind blows.
Depending on how it's used, wind can be a
good thing...or a very bad thing. You want
an example of it being a bad thing, then
you should see my brother.
It saddens me to say that my brother,
Cyclos, is miffed about his monument here
being broken, and how he spends his time
creating cyclones to torment people with.
So if you encounter any cyclones at sea,
chastise my brother for me, will you?
And THAT...is my request for you!
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
--- 5.7 Forest Haven ---
_________--------------------------------------------------------____________
KING OF RED LIONS, NEAR FOREST HAVEN:
Yes! Do you not see what rises up from
the horizon?
That is where you must go, Link...
the Forest Haven.
It may appear as though this is but a great
tree rising far above the ocean's surface...
But it is a sacred place. It is inside this
grotto that you will find the spirit of the
earth, the Great Deku Tree.
You must speak with the Deku Tree and
receive from him the sacred gem known as
Farore's Pearl.
I fear that Ganon's vile hand may have
already reached this most sacred of
sanctuaries.
Go forth with caution, Link.
DEKU TREE, AFTER YOU DEFEAT THE CHUCHUS:
(That garb you wear...
Could you be the legendary hero?
Has the king at long last found the
Hero of Time?
What is the matter? Do you not understand
the ancient Hylian tongue?
So...you are not the Hero of Time.)
I must apologize. I was in error.
I saw your clothing, and suddenly I felt a
longing for an age gone by... That longing
caused the ancient tongue to pass my lips.
I am the guardian spirit of this Forest
Haven--the Deku Tree.
I owe you my thanks for your aid in ridding
me of those foul creatures...
Tell me... Was it not the King of Red
Lions--the boat who speaks--who led you
to this place?
So it is true...
Then you have come here because you have
need of the pearl of the goddess?
I see...
I knew there was a reason the monsters had
