Features and Overview

The Castle Courtyard is a small, open enclosure inside Hyrule Castle. In order to speak to Princess Zelda, Link must infiltrate Hyrule Castle and visit her within the Courtyard. There, Princess Zelda explains that she had a prophetic dream warning of a dark force attempting to corrupt Hyrule.[1] She then shows Link a window where he can spot Ganondorf, who intends to steal the Triforce from its resting place in the Sacred Realm, the Temple of Time.[2][3][4] In order to counter Ganondorf, Princess Zelda devised a plan to keep the tools necessary to enter the Sacred Realm, the Ocarina of Time and the Spiritual Stones, out of his reach. To this end, she tasks Link with the responsibility of retrieving the remaining two Spiritual Stones.[5] Princess Zelda then gives him a Letter granting him permission to ascend Death Mountain Trail.[6] Afterwards, she orders Impa to teach Link her Lullaby and help escort him out of the Castle.[7][8]

If Link strikes the western window with a Deku Seed, a Soldier will appear and berate him before throwing a Bomb in his direction.[9] The eastern window contains scenery from New Super Mario Bros..[note 1]
