Gustaf

King Gustaf is a minor character in The Minish Cap. In the game, he is a ghost, but he was once king of Hyrule. This makes him the ancestor of its current King Daltus and Princess Zelda.

He first appeared to Link after he retrieved the Water Element from the Temple of Droplets. He marks his grave on Link's map and requests that he come visit. When Link arrives, Gustaf gives him a gold Kinstone that will open a stone door in Veil Falls. This allows Link to reach the Cloud Tops, which leads to the Wind Element.
