==List of Medallions==

Below is a brief description of the Medallions. They are listed according to their order on the status subscreen.
===Light Medallion===

His evil power radiated from the temples of Hyrule, and in seven short years, it transformed Hyrule into a world of monsters. My power now has only little influence, even in this Sacred Realm... Namely, this Chamber of Sages. But there is still hope... The power of the Sages remains. When the power of all the Sages is awakened... The Sages' Seals will contain all the evil power in the void of the Realm... I, Rauru, am one of the Sages... And... Your power to fight together with the Sages makes you the Hero of Time!

===Method of Obtainment===
While the listing above is the order seen in the Quest Status Subscreen, the Medallions can be secured in a number of different orders simply by entering a dungeon and obtaining its main item. The player can then move on to different dungeons with the new equipment. The Light Medallion must always come first, however, and it is worth noting that the Water Temple can be entered and completed before entering the Fire Temple. Also, the Shadow Temple cannot even be entered prior to beating the Water Temple, and the Forest Temple has to be cleared before Link is able to complete the Spirit Temple due to the requirement of traveling back in time. There are a total of thirty different ways to beat the temples.
Curiously, the Spirit Medallion and the "[[Requiem of Spirit]]" appear before the Shadow Medallion and the "[[Nocturne of Shadow]]" in their respective places on the Quest Status Subscreen.

Remnants of these original themes are present in the released version of {{OoT|-}}, such as Saria's part in [[Ganon's Castle]] being wind-themed, Ruto's part in Ganon's Castle being ice-themed, and the presence of an [[Ice Cavern (Ocarina of Time)|Ice-themed mini-dungeon]]. Also, the symbols on the Medallions were never changed; the Forest Medallion has an image similar to a wind-like vortex on it while the Water Medallion bears the image of a snowflake.

The Sage Medallions represent the awakening and power of their respective Sages. Link obtains each of them after awakening a new Sage, whose powers are symbolically added to those of Link. Each Sage Medallion bears the emblem and color of its respective element, and has the Triforce emblazoned on its back.
Modified versions of the fire and water emblems appear underneath Koume and Kotake when they manifest before Link in the Spirit Temple. The fire symbol faces to the left rather than the right, while the water symbol has eight points rather than six.
An equipped Wind Medallion, later renamed the Forest Medallion, in a developmental screenshot of Ocarina of Time[2]
During the early development stages of Ocarina of Time, Nintendo intended that the Medallions could be used by Link. Several early screenshots depict Link with the Forest Medallion (then known as the Wind Medallion) equipped, as the Medallions were the original method of warping through Hyrule instead of using the Ocarina of Time.[3]
In a November 1997 interview by Famimaga 64, Shigeru Miyamoto explained that the Medallions, known as "Magic Medallions", were supposed to have been used in conjunction with Link's Bow and Arrow.[4] There were to be six types of Magic Medallions, including fire, wind, darkness, and light, meaning that they might have been used instead of the Fire, Ice, and Light Arrows that turned out in the final, released version of the game.[4]
The Forest Medallion and Water Medallion were originally the "Wind Medallion" and "Ice Medallion," but their names and corresponding dungeons were changed during development.[2] Two icons relating to these original medallions are still present in the game's code.[5]
Remnants of these original themes are present in the released version of Ocarina of Time, such as Saria's part in Ganon's Castle being wind-themed, Ruto's part in Ganon's Castle being ice-themed, and the presence of an Ice-themed mini-dungeon. Also, the symbols on the Medallions were never changed; the Forest Medallion has an image similar to a wind-like vortex on it while the Water Medallion bears the image of a snowflake.
Trivia
The pattern similar to the Light Medallion
The Symbol on the Forest Medallion resembles the one on the Bombos Medallion from A Link to the Past. Its appearance was altered in Ocarina of Time 3D to depict only three spirals, rather than four, likely to avoid resemblance to a swastika. The new design bears a strong resemblance to the Kokiriemblem.
These names, though from official English sources, are not considered Canon by Zelda Wiki as they contradict a name or names from a higher-priority source.
