Talk:Master Sword

Could the Master sword be the Four Sword?

 * I second this no. Consider it seconded. --Jase 20:35, 7 January 2007 (CST)

Why considering there are some similarities and the lack of a theory reguarding the masterswords origin? and if they are not the same where did the Four Sword go?


 * Why, it exploded, of course. --Jase 13:31, 24 March 2007 (CDT)

Oh yeah, and who exploded it?!
 * Whoever they sealed in the sword got to powerful and broke out(KaBoom goes the sword)
 * Well, the original Picori Blade strongly resembles the Master Sword, and the Four Sword of TMC and the other games strongly differ - the "latter" games have Vaati's symbol on them, since he was sealed within. Furthermore, the original Four Sword of TMC is considered a blade of evil's bane, while the latter Four Swords are "cursed". Could it be that the bane part split from the Four Sword because it could not coexist with Vaati's evil? Or it could have been drawn out because it was no longer working while coexisting - either way, couldn't that be the case?128.211.183.86 00:06, 13 November 2007 (EST)

Reverted the last edit. The Official Site's stating that the Master Sword and Magical Sword are one and the same is not definitive proof- especially considering it also states there is only one Link. While I personally believe that they ARE the same sword, there isn't sufficient proof to say for certain, thus, stating that it was "formerly known as the Magical Sword" is an improper statement. We cannot say either way at this point. So leave it as a mention that the official site states it appeared in LoZ and AoL and with an attached link to Magical Sword, please.

Writing on the Hilt?
Does anyone here who understands/is able to read Hylian think they could try to translate the writing on the Master Sword's hilt in this closeup from the official art from Twilight Princess showing Link wielding the blade?

Here's the pic:

Thanks for your help! Dinosaur bob 14:19, 17 October 2007 (EDT)

I'm hoping this can be translated, partially at the very least. Having the translated inscription would be a big boost for the article, eh? Dinosaur bob 22:39, 19 October 2007 (EDT)

Wow! Awesome picture! Someone totally needs to translate this, I would but I don't know Hylian!--Green 23:41, 19 October 2007 (EDT)

It looks more a design to me.--Link hero of light 20:08, 28 January 2008 (EST)


 * Nope, that's definately Hylian. If I had more time I'd do the translation now, but it must wait until tomorrow (sleep, you see). Once I finish with school tomorrow I'll see what I can do. Fortunately I know Hylian and some Japanese. :P --Ando 21:43, 28 January 2008 (EST)

I wonder what it will say. I think it will be just a jumble of letters, but it might actually say something (I hope).--Link hero of light 21:47, 28 January 2008 (EST)

Anyway, how do you know Hylian?--Link hero of light 19:56, 29 January 2008 (EST)


 * Hylian is just different symbols for Japanese, so once you know the Japanese word for something, you can figure out the Hylian based off of that. That, and there's also this site. :P


 * Regarding translation status, though, BLARG. Quite a bit of the text is rather difficult to read, as it wasn't marked very clearly. Nothing wrong with the picture itself, though. It's a fantastic picture. Any lower res and it would be nigh impossible to read. D: After figuring out the orientation of the text, though, it's becoming somewhat easier. --Ando 20:40, 29 January 2008 (EST)
