The lesson
You are a courageous boy... You are heading out on a big, new adventure, aren't you?
My role in the Princess's dream was to teach a melody to the one from the forest.
This is an ancient melody passed down by the Royal Family.
I have played this song for Princess Zelda as a lullaby ever since she was a baby...
There is mysterious power in these notes.
Now listen carefully...
When Link plays it
You played Zelda's Lullaby.
