Story

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

Step 4 (Young Link)

Leave the forest. A friend waits on the bridge with a parting gift.

Oh, you're leaving...

I knew... that you would leave the forest... someday, Link...

Because you are different from me and my friends....

But that's OK, because we'll be friends forever... won't we?

I want you to have this Ocarina... Please take good care of it.

You received the Fairy Ocarina! This is a memento from Saria. Set it to C and press C to start playing it!

On the Select Item Subscreen, you can set it to C-Left, C-Down or C-Right, and then use that C to start playing it.

You can play different notes with A and the four C Buttons. Press B to quit playing, or to start your song over again.

When you play my Ocarina, I hope you will think of me and come back to the forest to visit.
