Aginah's role in the game was minor compared to that of his brother [[Sahasrahla]]. He is one of three characters apart from the [[Maiden|Seven Maidens]] that is a direct descendant of the Seven Sages who appear during the course of the game, the other two being Sahasrahla and the [[Lost Old Man]] on [[Death Mountain]]. Aginah is found living alone in a cave known as the Desert Sanctuary in the [[Desert of Mystery]] and tells [[Link]] about the [[Book of Mudora]] and where to find it.<ref>{{cite|If you have the Book Of Mudora you can read the language of the Hylia People.

Now wearing robes of the same color as Saharahla, he lives in Saharahla's Hideout near the [[Eastern Palace (A Link to the Past)|Eastern Palace]] and is the first person to discover the [[Hero of Light]]. Throughout the game, he uses his telepathic abilities to directly contact the Hero of Light to advise him and impart his wisdom.
