He advises Link to dash into objects such as trees in Kakariko Village, as he could find various objects hidden in them. Based on his dialog with Link, he initially believed the rumors about Link being a criminal, but admits that Link doesn't look like a bad guy after speaking to him. He does however continue to run thereafter when approached by Link.


Soldiers

At the beginning of the game, various friendly soldiers wearing golden armor can be seen prior to them losing their minds as a result of Agahnim's magic. They can be found blocking the exit on the screen with Link's House, the exit on the screen immediately west of Link's House, the western exit on the screen with Hyrule Castle, and the front gate of Hyrule Castle. One more can be found on the exterior part of the 2F level of Hyrule Castle. The soldiers all disappear after Link rescues Zelda from the castle dungeon. Though it is mentioned that the soldiers lose their minds, Link never encounters the ones wearing the golden armor as hostile soldiers after their disappearance.
