The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

Link's Awakening, one of the prime titles of the Game Boy and Game Boy Color. Claimed as one of the best portable Zelda's even today, Link's Awakening still proves to be a tough contender even against the likes of The Minish Cap, and A Link to the Past + Four Swords.

The Story
It is said that Link traveled across the world in search of adventure and to increase his skills. One day apon the great Ocean, a huge storm broke out tossing Link's ship around and around until it came apon an island. Koholint Island. His ship was utterly destroyed leaving Link unconscious on the beach. A young girl was strolling across the beaches to find Link lying there, unconscious.

After a long nap, Link awakes to find himself in a house being looked after by a young girl named Marin. Marin's father, Tarin, informed Link of the restless monsters that had been circulating the area. He gave Link his shield and Link set off to the beach to recover his sword.

After taking his sword from the beaches, a mysterious owl came down from above and told Link that in order for him to leave, he had to wake the Wind Fish.



The Legend of the Wind Fish
The Wind Fish, said to be inside the Egg atop of Tal Tal Heights, is a legend circulating Koholint Island. Many say that when the Wind Fish is awoken, then the island will disappear. Of course, the residents of Koholint Island merely treat that as a legend, but the Owl and Link put their skills to the test to make this legend a reality.
