Journey to Hyrule Castle transcript

Scene 2: Hyrule Field
Young Link: "Okay, Navi, we're in Hyrule Field,"

Navi: "now we just need to find the path that leads all the way to Hyrule Castle."

Young Link walks around and sees Kaepora Gaebora perched on a tree branch.

Kaepora Gaebora: "Link, look up here, it appears that the time has finally come for you to begin your journey quest, you'll encounter many hardships ahead, that's your fate, don't look discouraged, even during the toughest times, go straight this way and you'll see Hyrule Castle, you'll meet a young princess there, if you're lost and don't know which way to go, look at your map, the areas you've explored will be shown on your map, did you get all of that?"

Young Link: "Yes, of course I did."

Kaepora Gaebora: "Alright then, Link, I'll see you around."

Kaepora Gaebora flies around on his way to Hyrule Castle.

Young Link walks around all the way to the drawbridge, 'til evening time occurs and the drawbridge goes right up and the Stalchild army shows up.

Stalchild Number 1: "Guess what, Link?"

Stalchild Number 2: "We've come to attack you."

Stalchild Number 3: "You'd better think fast."

Stalchild Number 4: "Or this might get loud."

Young Link begins using his Kokiri Sword to kill them off.

Young Link: "Take this and that and this and that!"

The Stalchild army is now killed off and morning time occurs and the drawbridge goes right back down and Young Link walks around on his way to Hyrule Market.

Hyrule Market
Young Link: "Look at all of those Hylian people here."

Red Gossiping Twin: "What a crazy young boy, can you believe this young boy was crazy enough to try and sneak right into the castle to see Zelda? all because of him, they've tightened security at the castle courtyard."

Blue Gossiping Twin:  "I really wanted to see Zelda, I avoided the castle guards, swam right through the moat and I was almost there when they spotted me."

Young Link walks around on his way to Hyrule Castle

Hyrule Castle
Young Link walks around and notices Kaepora Gaebora on another tree branch.

Kaepora Gaebora: "Hey, Link, look this way, the young princess is inside the castle just ahead, but be very careful not to get spotted by the castle guards, on this ground, time flows normally, but time stands still while you're in Lon-Lon Ranch or in Hyrule Market, if you want time to pass normally, you'll need to leave Hyrule Market, now which way are you gonna go now? you wanna hear what I just said again?"

Young Link: "No thanks."

Kaepora Gaebora: "Well, Link, you're a smart young kid, good luck, then."

Young Link goes back from Hyrule Castle to Hyrule Market.

Back at Hyrule Market
Young Link walks around over to a young girl/Young Malon who's vocalizing Epona's Song.

Young Link: "Oh hi there, who might you be?"

Young Girl/Young Malon: "Hey, your clothes, they're different, you're not really from around here, are you? oh, right, you're a fairy boy from Kokiri Forest, I'm Malon, my dad and I own Lon-Lon Ranch, he went to the castle to deliver some Lon-Lon milk, but he hasn't come back yet."

Young Link: "Okay, I'll just go right back to Hyrule Castle and you can wait there for me."

Young Link walks around back to Hyrule Castle.

Back at Hyrule Castle
Young Link walks back over to Young Malon, who has something for him.

Young Link: "Hey, Malon, I'm back to do your bidding."

Young Malon: "Oh good, are you going to the castle, fairy boy? would you mind finding my dad there? he must've fallen asleep someplace around the castle, what a thing for a grown man to do, tee hee, oh yeah, if you look for him, I'll give this to you, I've been incubating this egg very carefully, tee hee."

Young Malon gives Young Link a pocket egg.

Young Link: "I got a pocket egg, it feels like there's something moving around inside."

Young Malon: "Tee hee, my dad's really troublesome for a grown man, isn't he? tee hee."

Cut to the Hyrule Castle Gate Guard.........

Hyrule Castle Gate Guard: "Another day, another hour 'til a certain somebody shows up."

Young Link walks around, climbs up the vine covered cliff, climbs right down another ladder opens a door, walks around avoiding being spotted by the Castle Guards, swims around in the water and finds Talon asleep by the Lon-Lon Milk crates.

Talon: [Snoring Lightly] "Welcome, our ranch is fun and exciting, come and take a good look around."

The very next morning......

Pocket Cucco: [Crowing Sounds]

Navi: "Look, Link, a Pocket Cucco hatched from the pocket egg you were incubating, it's the magic of the entire life cycle."

Young Link walks around takes out the Pocket Cucco and Talon is now awake.

Talon: "What in tarnation? can't a grown man get some shut-eye around here?"

Young Link: "I found you here."

Talon: "Oh hello, and who might you be?"

Young Link: "I'm Link, the future hero of Hyrule, are you Talon, the owner of Lon-Lon Ranch by any chance?"

Talon: "Yep, I'm Talon, the owner of Lon-Lon Ranch, I went to the castle to deliver Lon-Lon milk, but I sat right down here to relax and I guess I was falling asleep."

Young Link: "Oh yeah, and by the way, Malon was looking for you."

Talon: "What?!? Malon was looking for me?!? I'm gonna catch it from her right now, I messed up real bad leaving Malon behind to wait for me, she's really gonna let me have it!"

Talon runs around frantically all the way back from Hyrule Castle to Hyrule Market to Hyrule Field and back to Lon-Lon Ranch.

Young Link pushes the 2 Lon-Lon Milk crates over to the middle part of the moat, then jumps across and enters Castle Courtyard number 1.

Castle Courtyard number 1
Young Link: "Wow, this courtyard looks real big to me."

Navi: "Be very careful, Link, don't get spotted by the castle guards."

Castle Guard Number 1: "What's going on around here?"

Castle Guard Number 2: "Is somebody there?"

Castle Guard Number 3: "We don't like where this is going."

Castle Guard Number 4: "We know you're around here someplace."

Young Link walks around while sneaking past the castle guards to avoid getting caught and he eventually reaches Castle Courtyard number 2.

Castle Courtyard number 2
Young Link walks around and shoots his Fairy Slingshot at the picture paintings of Mario, Luigi, Peach, Yoshi and Bowser from the Super Mario Bros. game series, then he shoots his Fairy Slingshot at another window and Captain Viscen shows up at the window.

Captain Viscen: "Hey, young man, don't cause any more trouble."

Captain Viscen throws a bomb right out the window and Young Link backs away from it.

[Loud Explosion!]

Young Link walks around right over to where the young princess/Young Zelda is standing and looking right out the main window.

Young Princess/Young Zelda: "Who are you? and how did you get past the castle guards?"

Young Link: "Well, I climbed up a ladder, walked right behind walls and eventually never got caught by them."

Young Princess/Young Zelda: "Oh? what's that? is that a guardian fairy partner? then are you from Kokiri forest? then you wouldn't happen to have the spiritual stone of Kokiri Forest, would you? that green and shiny stone, do you have it?"

Young Link: "Yes, I do."

Young Princess/YoungZelda: "Just as I thought, I've had a dream vision, in the dream vision, dark storm clouds were billowing all over the universe of Hyrule, but suddenly, a beam of light shot right outta Kokiri forest, parted the clouds and lit up the ground."

Young Link: "Wow!"

Young Princess/Young Zelda: "The light turned into a figure holding a green and shiny stone, followed by a blue female fairy, I know this is a prophecy that somebody would come from Kokiri forest, and yes, I thought you might be the 1, oh I'm terribly sorry, I got carried away with my entire story and I didn't even properly introduce myself, I'm Zelda, the young princess of Hyrule, who might you be?"

Young Link: "I'm Link, the future hero of Hyrule."

Young Zelda: "Link? it sounds somehow peculiar, okay then, Link, I'm gonna tell you the secret of the Sacred Realm that has been passed down by our ancestors of Hyrule, please keep this a secret from everybody, alright?"

Young Link: "Okay, I'll keep it a secret from everybody."

Young Zelda: "The legend goes something like this."

Young Zelda: (narrating) The 3 goddesses hid the sacred Triforce containing the power of the mighty gods someplace in Hyrule, the true power to grant the wish of the 1 who holds the sacred Triforce in his hands, if somebody with a righteous heart and mind makes 1 wish, it'll lead Hyrule to the golden age of prosperity, if somebody with an evil mind has his wish granted, the universe will be consumed by pure evil, that's what's been told, so the ancient sages built the Temple of Time to protect the Sacred Triforce from the evil enemies."

End story legend.......

Young Zelda: "That's exactly right, the Temple of Time is the entrance through which you can enter the Sacred Realm from our universe, but the entrance is sealed with a powerful stone wall called the Door of Time, and, in order to open the door, it says that you need to collect 3 spiritual stones, and another thing you need is the treasure that our ancestors kept along with this legend: the Ocarina of Time, well, Link, did you understand well the story I just told you?"

Young Link: "Yes, Zelda, I did."

Young Zelda: "That's good, but I forgot to tell you, I was spying right through this window just now, the other element from my dream vision, the dark clouds, I believe they symbolize that evil man in there, will you please look through the window at him?"

Young Link: "Yes, of course I will."

Young Link looks right through the window to see the evil man/Ganondorf inside.

Young Zelda: "Can you see the big man with the evil eyes? that's Ganondorf, the leader of the Gerudos, they hail from the desert far to the west, even though he swears allegiance to my father, the King of Hyrule, I'm pretty sure he's not sincere, the dark clouds that covered Hyrule in my dream vision, they must symbolize that evil man."

Ganondorf looks right towads the window and Young Link backs up from being spotted by him.

Young Zelda: "What happened, Link? did he see you?"

Young Link: "Yeah, kind of."

Young Zelda: "Don't worry about it, he doesn't have any idea what we're planning yet, but I told my father about my dream vision, however, he didn't really believe it was a prophecy, but I can sense that big man's evil intentions, and what Ganondorf's after must be nothing less than the sacred Triforce of the Sacred Realm, he must've come to Hyrule to obtain it, and, he wants to conquer Hyrule, no wait, the entire universe, Link, now we're the only 1s who can protect Hyrule, please, help me out here."

Young Link: "Yes, okay."

Young Zelda: "Thanks a bunch, Link."

Young Link: "You're welcome."

Young Zelda: "I...I'm afraid I've got a feeling that this evil man is gonna destroy Hyrule, he's got such terrifying powers, but it's fortunate that you've come along, we mustn't let Ganondorf get the sacred Triforce, and I'll protect the Ocarina of Time with all of my powers, he shouldn't have it, you go find the other 2 spiritual stones, let's get the sacred Triforce right before Ganondorf does, then defeat him, 1 more thing, take this letter, I'm pretty sure it'll be more helpful to you."

Young Zelda gives Young Link her letter.

Young Link: "I received Zelda's Letter, wow, this letter's got Zelda's autograph."

Young Zelda: "My attendant, Impa will guide you outta the castle, so don't be too nervous to speak to her."

Young Link: "Don't worry about it, Zelda, I won't."

Young Link walks around over to a Sheikah woman/Impa, who's right by the exit.

Young Link: "Who are you?"

Impa: "I'm Impa of the Sheikahs, I'm responsible for protecting Zelda, everything's exactly as the young princess foretold, you're a brave young boy, you're heading out on a big new journey, aren't you? my role in the young princess's dream vision was to teach a powerful song to the 1 from Kokiri Forest, this is an ancient song passed down by our ancestors, I've played this song for Zelda as a powerful lullaby ever since she was a baby girl, there's mysterious power in these notes, now listen very carefully and memorize this song."

Impa: [Playing Zelda's Lullaby On Pan Pipes]

Young Link: [Playing Zelda's Lullaby On Fairy Ocarina]

Young Link: "I've learned Zelda's Lullaby."

Impa: "If the castle guards find you, there can be trouble, let me lead you outta the castle, Link."

Impa leads Young Link outta Hyrule Castle and all the way back to Hyrule Field.

Back in Hyrule Field
Impa: "You brave young lad, we must protect this beautiful universe of Hyrule, take 1 good look at that mountain, that's Death Mountain, home of the Gorons, they hold the spiritual stone of fire, at the foot of Death Mountain, you'll find Kakariko Village, that's where I was born and raised, you should speak to some of the villagers there right before you go up Death Mountain,the song I just taught you has some mysterious power, only true family members are allowed to learn this song, remember, it'll help to prove your connection with our ancestors, Zelda's waiting for you to return to the castle with the other spiritual stones, alright, Link, we're counting on you."

Impa disappears by using a Deku Nut.

Young Link walks around all the way to Lon-Lon Ranch.

Lon-Lon Ranch
Young Link walks around and enters Malon and Talon's farm house.

Inside Malon and Talon's farm house
Young Link: "Hey, Talon, it's me, Link, wake up."

Talon: "Huh, what? I'm awake already."

Talon: "Well if it isn't the young forest kid from the other day, and by the way, thanks a bunch for waking me up, it took some doing, but I finally got Malon back in a super good mood."

Young Link: "That's good, Talon, but is there anything for me to do around here?"

Talon: "Well how 'bout 1 good game to play? these 3 Cuccos that I got here are super special Cuccos, I'm gonna throw these Cuccos right into that pile of normal Cuccos, and if you can pick out these 3 special Cuccos from among the normal Cuccos within the time limit, I'll give you something super good, and if you can't find them, I win the entire game, it'll be 10 Rupees, wanna play, Link?"

Young LInk: "Yes, of course I do."

Talon: "You have 32 minutes, alright then, get ready, there go the Super Cuccos, now begin lookin'."

Young Link begins gathering up all of the Super Cuccos and eventually wins the entire game.

Talon: "Well golly bob howdy, I'll be darned, it's super incredible, that's the final 1, you found all of them, come right over here."

Young Link walks right over to Talon.......

Talon: "Hey, you, you got the talent to be 1 of the greatest cowfolks, how'd you like to be married to Malon? Huh, what?"

Young Link: "I'm way too young for that."

Talon: "You're absoloutely right, you're way too young for that, but I'm proud to present you our very own Lon Lon Milk sample, you'll be energized the minute you drink it, and right after you drink it, you can bring back the container and buy 1 good refill any single time you want."

Young Link exits Malon and Talon's house.

Back outside Lon-Lon Ranch
Young Link enters the stable where Ingo's doing the hard work.

Inside the stable
Young Link: "Hi there, Ingo, what's going on?"

Ingo:  "I just can't believe that I, the great Ingo, am working on this crazy dump of a ranch, 'cause the owner's very lazy, I always need to do to all of the work around here, I, the hard-working Ingo, should be in charge here, but not that lazy bum, Talon."

Young Link exits the stable.

Young Link walks around over to the fenced fields where Young Malon is still vocalizing Epona's Song.

Young Link: "Hi there, Malon, it's good to see you again."

Young Malon: "It's good to see you again as well, Link, I heard that you found my dad by the crates, how'd you like Hyrule Castle? did you see Zelda? tee hee, Dad came back home in a hurry right after you found him, tee hee, oh yeah, I need to introduce you to my good friend, Link, she's this horse and her name's Epona, isn't she beautiful looking?"

Young Link: "Yes, Malon, of course she's beautiful looking."

Young Malon: "By the way, Link, my mother composed this super good song, isn't it wonderful? let's perform together as always."

Young Link takes out his Fairy Ocarina.

Young Malon: "Wow, what a nice looking Fairy Ocarina, are you gonna play this wonderful song with that Fairy Ocarina? alright, this is the super good song."

Young Malon: [Vocalizing Epona's Song]

Young Link: [Playing Epona's Song On Fairy Ocarina]

Young Link: "I learned Epona's Song."

Young Link walks around, exits Lon-Lon Ranch and goes right up the stair steps and all the way to Kakariko Village.
