Talk:Howling Stone

how to learn
i spent half an hour howling like a drunk wolf in front of a stone, nothing happens. I tried another stone, same thing. is there some secret? i just look at the tune being played and after that repeat it, using the nunchuck controller and the A button? or is there something more to do?--Twopeak 15:33, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

.
hey, i just realised that the holwing stones look a lot like gossip stones, did anyone else notice this or have any idea why they look like gossip stones?

howling song accuracy
why did you list the song as goron lullaby when it does not sound like it and does not fit correctly


 * If you discount the sixth note which Wolf Link howls, it matches exactly. Also, if you include the drawn out ending, it contains the last two notes of the lullaby. Since no other song even comes close to matching the notes, I think it's pretty certain that song 4 is at least based on the Goron Lullaby, if not an exact rendering. --Adam 02:29, 23 October 2007 (EDT)


 * I don't mean to argue, but it doesn't match exactly. In fact, it matches only in contour and not in intervals at all. I've no idea what the song is, but I'm certain it isn't the Goron Lullaby. It looks like this was put to rest long ago, but it bugs me to not know. BrandedOne 05:34, 14 October 2012 (UTC)


 * As Adam said, it could still be a reference to the Goron's Lullaby even if it doesn't match it exactly. You said yourself there is some similarity. At very least, the existence of a relation between that particular Howling Stone and Goron's Lullaby is widely accepted by fans; that alone makes it relevant. 23:33, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

lake hylian song
why do you think nintendo decided to suddenly use goron lullaby for lake hylia instead of lake hylia's own song, serenade of water. it would fit better than goron.


 * As far as I can tell, none of the howling stone songs are thematically linked in any way to their TP locations, with the possible exception of #3 the prelude of light, which is found in the sacred grove. This is in the same region as the entrance to the temple of time, which is where it transports link in OoT. Also, the serenade of water is already featured in TP as rutela's theme. (P.S please remember to sign your posts.) --—Adam (talk) 02:51, 16 February 2008 (EST)

missed
If you miss a howling stone, will the next one teach you telast hidden move? I've found the last howling stone (hidden village) and learned the jump strike from it. So Im now looking for one that i musta have missed to learn the great spin. Thanks. If this is correct, it should be added to the page. Takhamavahu 19:14, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Apparently, yes because I just found the stone i missed.Takhamavahu 19:24, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

Song Origin
Would we say that Zelda's Lullaby is from OoT based on the fact that it's the first game the song is both named and playable? The song was first introduced in ALttP, so should we change it, or keep it as-is? Nicktheslayer 16:34, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Good question. To be honest, I don't really see the point of the "Origin Game" column at all. I went ahead and removed it entirely. 16:57, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
