About that Hero's Shade...

[MasterKeyX]

I was just thinking that maybe the identity of the Hero's Shade isnt so mysterious.

You see, he teaches Link all these special moves to help him cope with the oncoming evil. And he almost always talks about the hero of legend.

So I was thinking that maybe the Hero's Shade is a previous incarnation of Link that has come to help the present day Link. Like the link in OoT had come to help the Link in TP.

What do you'll think of this?

[Eralk Fang]

I'm of the mind that it is the Link from Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. But I think it's general consensus that the Hero's Shade is a previous Link. Although it would awesome if it was a different Hero entirely, like the Hero of Men in The Minish Cap- a folktale hero that is not a Link.

[wiizard]

we should use one of the topics that already exist to talk about this, we already started 3 about almost the same stuff

[DW]

yes, this really isn't a unique idea, I cant tell you how many times it's been stated.

[Commodore Axilon]

Eralk Fang, why don't you think the Hero of Men was another Link?

[DW]

didn't they say his name was Gustaf or something in MC?

[Eralk Fang]

What Shikamaru Nara said- I'm convinced that Gustaf is the Hero of Men, not another Link. Links can't save the day all the time!

[DW]

yes, tingle has to do it once, hence Tingle RPG>

[MasterKeyX]

Please, the only thing Tingle can save is a Force Gem. :P

[Hi no Seijin]

didn't they say his name was Gustaf or something in MC?

Wasn't Gustaf a past Hyrule king?

[MasterKeyX]

A hyrule king? No, the only names I've every heard for a Hyrule king were Nohansen. Gustaf doesnt ring a bell.

[Eralk Fang]

Gustaf is the dead King from The Minish Cap who is buried in Royal Valley, and appears as a ghost in game.

[DW]

yes, and as a youth he had saved the world with the picori sword, becoming the hero of men, right?

[Hi no Seijin]

I don't remember hearing that in TMC.

[DW]

well it was in a special uncut version only I bought before they recalled it. So I win, you're wrong, happy me.
