Hoo hoo!

Did you learn an Ocarina song from Saria?

That melody seems to have some mysterious power.

There may be some other mysterious songs like this that you can learn in Hyrule.

Hoo hoot! Link... Look up here!

It appears that the time has finally come for you to start your adventure!

You will encounter many hardships ahead... That is your fate. Don't feel discouraged, even during the toughest times!

Hey, Link! This way!

The princess is inside the castle just ahead. Be careful not to get caught by the guards! Ho ho ho hoot!

Hey, Link! Look over here!

Beyond this point you'll find Kakariko Village. Watch your step! Hoot hoo!

You've done well to come all the way up here, Link. This is the summit of the sacred Death Mountain! Hoot!

It is said that the clouds surrounding this peak reflect the condition of Death Mountain. When they look normal, it is at peace.

Climbing all the way up here just proves how smart you are! Now I want to see you make another smart move...

The Great Fairy lives on this mountaintop, and she will give you a new skill! She is the leader of the fairies, you know. Hoo!

I will perch here and wait for you. When you're ready to go back down, I can help you! Now, get going!

Hoo hoot! Well, it looks like you've grown up a little from the Great Fairy's power...

But you still don't really look like the hero who will save Hyrule. At least not yet!

If you are going back down the mountain, I can lend you a wing. Come here and grab my talons! And hold on tight! Hoo hooooooot!

Link! This way! Hoo hoo!

I wonder what Saria is doing now? How about going back to the forest sometime?

What are you doing? You've come a long way to get up here...

You should look at the Map Subscreen sometimes.

Link, this is a beautiful lake full of pure, clear water.

At the lake bottom there is a Water Temple used to worship the water spirits. The Zoras are guardians of the temple. Hoo hoo.

The Zoras come from Zora's Domain in northeast Hyrule. An aquatic race, they are longtime allies of Hyrule's Royal Family.

I heard that only the Royal Family of Hyrule can enter Zora's Domain... Hoo hoo!

I'm on my way back to the castle. If you want to come with me, hold on to my talons!

I'm on my way back to the castle. If you want to come with me, hold on to my talons!

Hoot hoot!

Link, you look like you're getting more comfortable in your role as adventurer.

I think Princess Zelda is waiting for you to visit her again.

You already have the Goron's Ruby, don't you?

Hoo hoo! Looks like you've gotten bigger and stronger already, Link!

Just ahead lies Zora's Domain. The Zoras serve Hyrule's Royal Family by protecting this water source.

Their door will not open for anyone except those who have some connection with the Royal Family.

Let them hear the melody of the Royal Family! Hooo hoo hoooot!

Hey, what's up, Link? Surprised to see me?

A long time in this world is almost nothing to you, is it? How mysterious!

Even I thought that the tales of a boy who could travel back and forth through time was merely a legend.

Link, you have fully matured as an adult.

After going through the Lost Woods, you will come upon the Sacred Forest Meadow.

That is a sacred place where few people have ever walked.

Shhhh...What's that? I can hear a mysterious tune...

You should listen for that tune too... Hoo hoo ho!

Do you want to hear what I said again?
Yes
No

If you are courageous, you will make it through the forest just fine...

Just follow your ears and listen to the sounds coming from the forest! Hoot hoot!

If you hold the Ocarina with C where a melody is necessary, a musical staff will appear.

I recommend that you play a song you know.

I also suggest that you play even when a score is not displayed. Just like this: Hoo hoo hoo hoot hoot hoot!

Do you want to hear what I said again?
Yes
No

Melodies you have learned will be recorded on the Quest Status Subscreen. You should memorize those melodies.

Go straight this way and you will see Hyrule Castle.

You will meet a princess there...

If you are lost and don't know which way to go, look at the Map.

The areas you have explored will be shown on the Map. Press START to enter the Subscreens and Z or R to find the Map.

On the Map Subscreen, you will also see a flashing dot showing you which way you should go next.

All right then, I'll see you around! Hoot hoot hoot ho!

On this ground, time flows normally.

But time stands still while you are in Lon Lon Ranch or in a town.

If you want time to pass normally, you'll need to leave town.

Well, well, which way are you going to go now? Hoo hoo hoot!

Do you want to hear what I said again?
Yes
No

Hoooo. You're a smart kid. Good luck, then. Hoo hoo.

Hey, Link! Wait a second, friend!

Beyond this point you'll find Kakariko Village. Have you seen the Princess of Hyrule? If not, I suggest you go to the castle.

Link, you're the only one who can complete the quest ahead! You must do your best! Hoo!

Link! Wait up, buddy! Hoo hoo!

Head south from here to reach Lake Hylia's full, rich waters.

If you go west, you'll find Gerudo Valley. There's a hideout of a gang of thieves on the other side of the valley.

Well, you're free to go anywhere you want! Ho ho ho...hooo!

No matter how hard it is, just don't get discouraged. Ho Ho Hoo!

Beyond this point lies Lake Hylia. It is full of deep, pure water.

The Zoras, who live all the way upstream, guard the sunken temple at the lake's bottom, as well as Zora's Fountain.

If you want to confirm its location on the map, press START to switch to the Subscreens and Z or R to find the Map.

All the places you have visited will be shown on the map. Ho hoo hoot!

OK, be careful and go!

From now on, the future of all the people in Hyrule is on your shoulders.

Maybe it's not my time anymore. Here is my last advice.

Two witches inhabit this temple. In order to destroy them, turn their own magic power against them. Hoo hoot!

I will continue to watch you... Hoo hoo hoo hoot!
