Talk:Four Sword

From Zelda Wiki, the Zelda encyclopedia

It seems that the Minish Cap Four Sword might be the original Master Sword, as it's pre-broken form looked like the blue Master Sword, and early boxart seemed to show it as a golden Master Sword. http://www.kasuto.net/image/minish_cap/minishcap.jpg

The Minish Cap Sword is also missing the eye of Vaati, and instead has a jewel. This might explain why it functions differently - it was cursed by absorbing Vaati, and the blade of evil's bane (remember, TMC Four Sword had evil-bane power that was not seen in later FS games) part would have seperated, as it could not be combined with evil. http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00030GS80.01._PE12_.The-Legend-of-Zelda-Minish-Cap._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg

I disagree- that sword may, in fact, be the original Picori Blade. As seen in this piece of official art from The Minish Cap- which, incidentally, is being used for both the Black Knight and Dark Hyrule Castle articles, the Four Sword actually has that trademark Vaati-esque eye mark on the hilt- and also has the traditional colored-dot pommel from Four Swords and Four Swords Adventures, not the Triforce-mark pommel from the boxart:

Interesting, isn't it? We have two conflicting sources- the boxart and the official art from events taking place in the game itself. And also, the FSA Four Sword DID have the power to repel evil- however, it had been depowered through some source (which was never explained, though I'll concede that Vaati MAY have had something to do with it), necessitating the Force Gem collection angle to restore it.
