Song of Storms Paradox

Hello everyone! Today, I am about to show you something that will leave you lying awake at might, endlessly thinking. Nah, it isn't that bad but it will make your brain hurt quite a lot. That's right all you Zelda fans, I'm talking about the song of storms paradox.

 

Now some of you may not know what the song of storms is. The song of storms is a song you can learn on your ocarina in Ocarina of Time. You learn it from Guru Guru in Kakariko village. Now, here is where it can get super confusing so you might have to go back and re-read some sentences. As a child, you can go into the windmill an talk to Guru Guru. He will just babble on about how much he loves how the windmill goes round and round. While he is doing this he seems to be playing some sort of music box type thing. It is not necessary to do this but I am just mentioning it so you don't get too confused. If you enter the windmill as an adult however, it is a completely different mood. The windmill is going super fast and he is playing his little music box a lot faster, and angrier now. If you talk to him he states that some little kid dressed in green ruined his life seven years ago. Sound familiar? He says the little kid came in and played an odd song on his ocarina and it made it start to storm, causing the windmill to go crazy. Now, he is boomed to live the rest of his life playing his little box. If you pull out your ocarina in front of him he will angrily state that looks identical to the one the little boy played. Then, like a moron, he teaches you the song that the little kid played to make it storm, and you now know the song of storms. Now, I am quite sure that you all know that the little boy is you as a kid, so who's ready to go ruin someones life? Technically this is necessary to get through the main quest because it empties the water in the well. Go back into the windmill as a little kid and play the song right in front of him. The windmill will go crazy and so will he. Are you ready for the crazy part? Now, here is where it can get super confusing so you might have to go back and re-read some sentences. Who taught you the song? Guru Guru did. And who taught him the song? You did. Confused yet? You practically taught each other the song. Or in simpler terms, you taught yourself a song that can make it rain. How does that work? He didn't create it, and you didn't either, so who did? That's the part that will leave you wondering endlessly in your mind. You will never know who made the song, or how it got there in the first place, its just... there.... The paradox just goes on endlessly without stop. Did I confuse you? That's ok, just go back and re-read it again.

Midna, The Twilight Princess

Hey everyone! Sheik here. Today I am going to talk about the best Legend of Zelda character there is, that's right, Midna. Now, you can have your own favorite character, but Midna is mine. Also like always, this may contain spoilers for the game Twilight Princess.

 

Now, there must be a million reason why Midna is my favorite character. For the sake of time, I will only name the biggest ones. First, look how powerful she is! Yes, I know Zelda is powerful, but look at Midna! She can kill people with her hair. She killed Zant, who was granted the power of a god, with her hair. Now yes I know, its not necessarily where her power comes from. She is a descendant of the first Twili, and the lawful ruler of the entire realm. Her ancestors created the fused shadows, one of the most powerful objects in the Legend of Zelda series. She has inherited this power, and that henceforth makes her one of the most powerful characters in the game.

 

 

Now I don't only like her for her power. I mostly like her for her wisdom, and courage to do what is right. When she first meets Link, she doesn't care about the world of light at all. Her only concern is saving her people of the Twilight realm. While Link is gathering the fused shadows, she begins to realize maybe the people of light aren't as bad as she thought they where. After Link gets all the fused shadows, Zant appears, If you don't know, Zant is the Usurper King of the Twilight realm. He turns Link back to his wolf form, and offers to make a deal with Midna. He says they can work together, to rid of the light world, and let it be taken over by shadow. She refuses, and Zant exposes her to the light, almost killing her. Link tries to save her by bringing her to Princess Zelda. Her final request is that Zelda shows Link where the mirror of Twilight is, so he can stop Zant and save the light. Zelda then gives a mysterious power to Midna, as she is disappearing. After this, Midna's main goal is to save the world of light, for it is just as important as her own. Link and Midna manage to defeat Zant and Ganondarf and both worlds are now safe. As Midna is returning to her world, she says her goodbyes and thanks Link and Zelda for all they have done. She cannot say goodbye to Link though, and a single golden tear falls down her eye. She simply tells him, "See you later", as she shatters the mirror and steps through the portal as it breaks. Now that may not seem like a big deal, but she sacrificed her own happiness, for the sake of her people, and theirs. By breaking the mirror, no more evils can seep from the realm, and threaten the light realm.
