What they say

Incredible! At last you have the three Pendants… Now, you should go to the Lost Woods. If you are the true Hero, the sword itself will select you. … … …

I am too old to fight. I can only rely on you.

I am, indeed, Sahasrahla, the village elder and a descendent of the seven wise men. … … Oh really? Link, I am surprised a young man like you is searching for the sword of evil's bane. Not just anyone can use that weapon. Legends say only the Hero who has won the three Pendants can wield the sword. … … … Do you really want to find it? ▶ Yeah! Of Course!

Good. As a test, can you retrieve the Pendant Of Courage from the East Palace? If you bring it here, I will tell you more of the legend and give you a magical artifact. Now, go forward to the palace.

Other relatives of the wise men are hiding from the evil wizard's followers. You should find them.

Link, it is I, Sahasrahla. I am communicating to you across the void through telepathy… The place where you now stand was the Golden Land, but evil power turned it into the Dark World. The wizard has broken the wise men's seal and opened a gate to link the worlds at Hyrule Castle. In order to save this half of the world, the Light World, you must win back the Golden Power. You must also rescue the seven maidens who Agahnim sent to the Dark World. As members of the blood-line of the seven wise men, they have power that will surely help you. The maidens are locked in hidden dungeons full of evil creatures and dangerous traps. The Palace of Darkness should be your first goal in this world! Link, I can rely on only you. Please make this old man's wishes come true. I beg you!

But I sense your helplessness… Before you go any further, find the Moon Pearl on Death Mountain. It will protect you from the Dark World's magic so you can keep your heroic figure.

A helpful item is hidden in the cave on the east side of Lake Hylia. Get it!

Oh!? You got the Pendant Of Courage! Now I will tell you more of the legend… Three or four generations ago, an order of knights protected the royalty of the Hylia. These Knights Of Hyrule were also guardians of the Pendant Of Courage. Unfortunately, most of them were destroyed in the great war against evil that took place when the seven wise men created their seal. Among the descendants of the Knights Of Hyrule a hero must appear. …I see. Link, I believe you. You should get the remaining Pendants. And carry this with you. This is a treasure passed down by the families of the wise men. I want you to have it.

You are correct, young man! I am Sahasrahla, the village elder and a descendent of the seven wise men. … … … What? Link, I'm surprised a young man like you is looking for the sword of evil's bane. Not just anyone can use that sword. According to the tales handed down by the Hylia, only the Hero who has destroyed three great evils and won the three Pendants can wield the sword… … … … I see you have acquired the Pendant of Courage. I will tell you about the legend behind it. Three or four generations ago, an order of knights protected the royalty of the Hylia. These Knights Of Hyrule were also guardians of the Pendant Of Courage. Unfortunately, most of them were destroyed in the great war against evil that took place when the seven wise men created their seal. Among the descendants of the Knights Of Hyrule a hero must appear. …I see. Link, I believe you. You should get the remaining Pendants. And carry this with you. This is a treasure passed down by the families of the wise men. I want you to have it.
