Dampe

Aaaaieeee!!! Th-they're out!

Why are they out when it's not even night?

I am Dampe, the grave keeper, who watches over this graveyard.

My face is frightening, but I am not a bad person!

All the graves here belong to the family members of the King of Ikana Castle, a place that lies beyond the mountains.

Even nowadays, the ghosts come out at night. It is a frightening graveyard.

Did you see the huge skeleton at the back of this graveyard?

My father once said that was all that was left of the former Royal Soldier who once guarded this graveyard.

Even though he is dead, his remains still block the way. In a sense, he is still guarding the Royal Family's treasure.

He must have been a fine soldier, indeed.

Do you want see the dancing bones?

If you do, then just wait here until night comes.

I don't want to see something evil like that, though...

Don't bother me!

Soon, a whole lot of frightful ghosts will appear.

You should go home, too... Before you get attacked!

There are a lot of bats out today. I don't like bats.

I wish they'd go away.

Aaaieeee!!! Th-they're out!

Go away!

You? Wh-who are you? I can't see 'cause it's too bright...You're not a ghost...are you?

...A fairy?

Oh, it was the fairy's light. In that case, it's just perfect.

I came looking for the Royal Family's legendary treasure, but my torch has gone out.

I'm sorry, but could you walk in front of me and light the way?

Please?

Yes
No

I'm not going to give up. I'll keep asking you until you say yes.

That's how I courted my current wife, you know.

So...Will you lead me through the dark?

You will? In that case, I'll use your light as I walk.

Just lead me to the place where you think the treasure chest is buried.

I'll even split the treasure with you...I'm counting on you now.

Where were you? You suddenly vanished, so I got worried. Your light is all I have to go on.

Hey! Where'd you go? I wish you'd walk a little slower.

Oh! There's something strange about this spot.

You want me to dig here?
Yes
No

...In that case, take me to another spot.

Nothing's turning up. Take me to another spot.

Something strange is here, but it isn't any treasure. Show me another spot.

Waah!!! It's the leader of the ghosts!

The soul of a brave soldier from Ikana rests here.

Was it you who chased those bats away?

That's a big help... It isn't much, but here's 30 Rupees for your trouble. Take it!

I...I ain't seen nothing and I d-don't know nothing...
