  2. I am one of four knights chosen by the king. I am the fourth knight, Brant. Those spirits you have with you, they are Power, Wisdom, and Courage, yes? Why are the three spirits of the Ocean King with you? King Mutoh, the holder of the Aquanine, is not here. He is on the island that is guarded by a rock wall, the Isle of Ruins. You'll need that Regal Necklace to get there. That will calm the cyclone at the entrance, so that your boat may pass. — Brant (Phantom Hourglass)
