Conversations
After Recieving the Hero's Clothes
Link! Is that you? If I recall correctly, today, you are the same age as the legendary hero.
When did you get so old?
You must build strong muscles from now on! Strong muscles!
You have come at the perfect moment! I was just trying my rolling attack. Allow me to teach it to you!
Are you ready? Just run as fast as you can, then press A. That is how you perform a rolling attack.
If you think you understand, then try to roll into the wall. Go on, young one!
Link does so, Sturgeon is annoyed
and bangs on the floor.
Ah, my brother upstairs is very high-strung. His is the way of knowledge. He locks himself in his room and studies all day.
He is quite wise, but with that big head of his, he is hardly...accommodating.
On top of it all, he is so very feeble! At times, I am ashamed to call him my brother.
But enough of that, Link! I sense the natural talent that beats in your veins.
But you need more than talent to make it in the world today. You must also be bold! And to that end, I shall teach you the art of swordplay.
What say you?
Do you wish to practice you skills with the sword?
Link practices with the sword
It is as I foresaw! One day, you shall become a master of the sword! But it is still too soon to give you a sword to carry around with you.
I'm afraid I cannot give you one yet.
If I did give you one, I am certain your grandmother would be quite upset with me...and I do not need that!
But...if for any reason you feel you need more training, then come see me again.
