Story

What happens in Kakariko Village in the main story, with the lines from its cutscenes. All the steps in order are on the quests page.

Step 9 (Young Link)

Show the letter to the guard at the gate to the mountain.

Step 23 (Adult Link)

A shadow sets the village on fire and escapes from the well. As a child, Link takes the lens from the bottom of the well, then clears the temple under the graveyard.

Get back, Link!

Looks like you're coming around...

Link.... A terrible thing has happened! The evil shadow spirit has been released!

Impa, the leader of Kakariko Village, had sealed the evil shadow spirit in the bottom of the well....

But the force of the evil spirit got so strong, the seal of the well broke, and it escaped into the world!!

I believe Impa has gone to the Shadow Temple to seal it again, but...she will be in danger without any help!

Link! Impa is one of the six Sages. Destroy the evil shadow spirit and save Impa!

There is an entrance to the Shadow Temple beneath the graveyard behind this village.

The only thing I can do for you is teach you the melody that will lead you to the Shadow Temple...

This is the melody that will draw you into the infinite darkness that absorbs even time... Listen to this, the Nocturne of Shadow!!

You have learned the Nocturne of Shadow!

Let me take care of the village! I'm counting on you, Link!
