![]() It’s one of my favourite pieces of Legend of Zelda music. This intro is amazingly done…the use of well-known Zelda themes but slowed down to make it seem so much more sombre. Tatl is separated from Tael as they make their escape & insists on teaming up with Link until they can be reunited. He turns Link into a Deku scrub & leaves him to die. Link gives chase into a cave & confronts Skull Kid who wields incredible power. While travelling through a forest he is ambushed by ‘Skull Kid’ & his two fairies Tatl & Tael, they steal his horse (Epona) & the ocarina of time. In it we see Link (as a child) on a long journey to find his departed fairy friend, Navi. Only the 2nd to use 3D graphics those expecting another exciting jaunt through Hyrule were quickly surprised by the opening scene. Released in the year 2000 the game came as something of a shock for Zelda fans. It’s not about destroying an evil & more about having & giving second chances, something that the gameplay uses to great effect. Its dark tale of loss & redemption is something that really struck a chord with me. ![]() In some ways I love Majora’s Mask more than Ocarina of Time. The hardest reviews are for something you love…it’s taken me the better part of a year to finally finish this.
