Twilight Princess Wolf Songs


Hey everyone! Sheik here! First off, I am very sorry I haven't posted in a long time, I was having some technical difficulties. I will try to catch up on my posts very soon. Today, I want to talk about some of the music used in the series. Not just any music though, Twilight Princess music. Now on my opinion, Twilight Princess has the best music known to any video game. You just can't beat it. Today, I will be talking about the wolf songs.


Now incase you didn't know, one of the many things you can do as a wolf is howl. There are about ten songs that you can howl in the game. The first two, are the two playable grasses that you can play as a human. You can call Epona anytime if you howl next to the grass. The howled version of the song is the exact same as the normal one. You can also howl next to the grass you use to call the falcon. The only place where this has an effect is Lake Hylia where it will call the big twilight bird that you can ride on.


 
Next up are the six songs that you can learn from the howling stones. I talked briefly about these songs awhile ago in my Hero's Shade theory post, but I am just going to give you some reminders. You can learn these songs at howling stones which are scattered all over Hyrule. Once you howl the song, and you play it with Hero's Shade, he will show up in his wolf form somewhere on your map. Five out of the six  songs are from other games in the series. Right now, I am just going to list all of the wolf songs you can learn from the howling stones, and where they come from.
1) The Song of Healing (Majora's Mask)
2) Prelude of Light (Ocarina of Time)
3) Goron's Lullaby (Majora's Mask)
4) Requiem of Spirit (Ocarina of Time)
5) Ballad of Gales (Wind Waker)
6) Twilight Princess Theme (Twilight Princess)
 
 
The next Song is one well known by most people. That is of course, Zelda's Lullaby. This song can be learned in front of the sacred grove and is used multiple times inside as well. This is the only song you learn from a stone that can be played more than once.

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.
 
 
Now do you see how awesome Midna is? Make sure to tell me what your favorite Zelda character is in the comments below. Also, make sure to visit www.thenintenbros.blogspot.com  for even more Nintendo tips, theories, updates, and more! Until then, bye!

Heros Shade Theory

What's up everybody? Sheik here! Today I am going to be doing another theory. This time, we are going to be talking about the mysterious hero's shade. I love this theory for many reasons that you will find out soon! SPOILER ALERT!!! Like most theories, this could spoil some of the games for you. You have been warned. So! Lets begin!

As many of you Twilight Princess fans already know, this is hero's shade. You first meet him outside the forest temple when he is in his wolf form. He says he will teach you the seven hidden skills, which you can learn by progressing through the game. Now, here comes the theory part. Many say he is the Link from Ocarina of time. Now, as you probably saw in my last theory, none of it was proven. This however, has been confirmed by Nintendo. In Hyrule Historia, they refer to Link as "descendant of the Hero of Time". Underneath that, they say the following: "The spirit of Link's ancestor, the Hero of Time, teaches him his secrets.  Ever since returning to the child era, the swordsman has lamented the fact that he was not remembered as a hero. This is the reason he passes down the proof of his courage and his techniques to the Link of this era, addressing him as son". That's pretty much all the proof you need to believe me, but what's the fun in that! Get ready for some more evidence.
Hero's Shade's sword, shown above, shows a lot of resemblance to the master sword. You can tell by the almost broken triforce on the end of his sword. Also the shape is very similar.

Next we have a howling stone and the two wolves howling. For those of you who do not know, Hero's Shade has a wolf form as well. Since Twilight Princess Link turn to a wolf because of the triforce, he could have too. The howling stone seems to have a Sheika eye in the middle. I actually am not sure why, maybe Hero's Shade worked with the Sheika but I don't think so. Now, every time Link encounters a howling stone, it teaches him a song that he can howl.  Most of these songs, can be found in Ocarina of Time, and Majora's Mask. The song are, Prelude of Light,  Song of Time, and Zelda's Lullaby.  Ocarina of time Link learned these songs and easily could pass them down to Twilight Princess Link. Although, I am stumped on one part. One of the songs Twilight Princess Link learns is from Wind Waker. I mean, what? Wind Waker is in an alternate dimension. (I will explain the different dimensions later in my timeline post.) If you know why please tell me in the comments!) Next piece of evidence!
Most of you Ocarina of Time fans know who this is. If you don't, this is Malon, from Lon Lon ranch. Hero's Shade calls Twilight Princess Link his son at the end of his training. Hyrule Historia also says that Twilight Princess Link is a descendant of Ocarina of Time Link. Now if this is so, who did Ocarina of Time Link end up with? It cannot be Saria, Impa, Ruto, Naboo, or Zelda because they all became sages. The only girl left is Malon. This also explains a lot in Twilight Princess. Now, Malon is a farmer. So is Link in Twilight Princess. I mean that could just be a coincidence, but like I said, those are no fun :). Also, in Ocarina of Time, Malon is often found singing "Epona's Song" which she says her mother taught her before she died. In Twilight Princess, Link also knows this song, and uses it quite often. Malon would most likely pass that song down to future generations. Piecing together the puzzle yet? That is not actually proven but it is what I believe.
Now are you piecing together the puzzle? I do personally believe this theory but feel free to have your own opinions.
Thank you guys so much for reading! I hope you enjoyed, and feel free to ask questions in the comments if you are confused. Make sure to also check out http://thenintenbros.blogspot.com/ for even more Nintendo theories, easter eggs, and tips. Until then, Bye!!!
