The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker: Difference between revisions

Link and the King of Red Lions set sail for [[Greatfish Isle]] to obtain Nayru's Pearl from the Water Spirit [[Jabun]]. However, they find the island ravaged and Jabun nowhere in sight.<ref>{{Cite|Wh-What is the meaning of this? The island... It is... ...We are too late. I knew we had precious little time, but I never suspected how little... A great water spirit named Jabun once lived here, but no sign of him remains...|King of Red Lions|TWW}}</ref> Quill arrives and informs Link that Jabun fled to a cave behind Outset Island to hide from Ganondorf.<ref>{{Cite|I'm sorry to report to you that Jabun can no longer be found here. Just look at how this place has been torn to pieces... I suppose this, too, is the work of the shadow in the Forsaken Fortress. But fear not! Jabun was able to flee this island before it was attacked. He is in a safer abode now. Would you like to guess where that abode may be? ...On the island where you were born.

It's not our fault that we absolutely gotta have bombs to get the treasure we're after! How about you just think of it as payback for the nasty little monopoly you've been running here, yeah?

I bet you are.|Mako|TWW}}</ref> After overhearing [[Gonzo]] telling [[Mako]] the password to enter their ship, Link proceeds to the ship and uses the password to gain entry. He takes the bombs the pirates have stolen for himself and returns to Outset Island to break into Jabun's cave with them. Although he is skeptical about Link, Jabun agrees to hand Nayru's Pearl over to him. Link proceeds to place the Goddess Pearls on their respective statues on the [[Triangle Islands]], which causes the [[Tower of the Gods]] to rise from the depths of the Great Sea.  

The King of Red Lions takes Link and Tetra back to the castle beneath the sea and reveals that they are in the kingdom of [[Hyrule]], which was flooded by the goddesses after the events of ''Ocarina of Time'' to prevent Ganon's return. The King of Red Lions also reveals himself to be Hyrule's king, [[Daphnes Nohansen Hyrule]]. He fuses the missing shard of the [[Triforce of Wisdom]] in his possession with the fragment on Tetra's necklace to reveal her identity as Princess Zelda, the true heir to the royal family of Hyrule. The King instructs her to remain in Hyrule and sends Link back to the sea above to reawaken the Master Sword’s power and reunite the [[Triforce of Courage]]—split when the Hero of Time left Hyrule after completing his mission.<ref name="Hero of Time">{{Cite|Once, long ago, he defeated Ganon and brought peace to the Kingdom of Hyrule... A piece of the Triforce was given to the Hero of Time and he kept it safe, much as Zelda kept hers. That sacred piece is known as the Triforce of Courage. When the Hero of Time was called to embark on another journey and left the land of Hyrule, he was separated from the elements that made him a hero. It is said that at that time, the Triforce of Courage was split into eight shards and hidden throughout the land.|King of Red Lions|TWW}}</ref> Until then, the portal to Hyrule is sealed to keep Zelda safe.
