The drawing on the base of Link's house in OoT

Why do u think Link ( or maybe even someone else) drew the picture on his house?

It's been a while since I've seen it, but I remember a bit of what it was like...can you get a screenshot of it?

Hi no Seijin

I drew a sketch of it.  I don't have a scanner, but I'll try to describe it in words.

Okay, in the upper left part of the etching was a few lines that looked like a "u" inside of a "u," and the opening was facing southwest.  A little bit below and to the right of this was what appeared to be a man holding a sword and a shield with an emblem on it.  It wasn't very detailed; the head and upper body were squares, with no facial features on the head.  The legs, one arm, and sword were nothing but straight lines, and the shield was a diamond.  The emblem on the shield was a "v" on it's side with the point pointing east (or right).  To the right of this etching was a dinosaurish looking creature with what appears to be spikes on the back.

Since it's Link's tree house, I would guess that he drew it when he got bored one day.  And I also think that it's prophetic, but Link was just daydreaming when he drew it, not really knowing what the feature held for him.

To me, I think the the u inside the u could be a faerie.  The guy with the sword and shield could be Link, and the dinosaur-like creature is a monster Link is fighting.

Like I said, I think Link was just daydreaming when he etched this picture on it, but it very well could've ended up being prophetic.

I think that U thing is a fairy, and I remember reading somewhere that Link and Saria drew it together ...

Hi no Seijin

If you ever find where you read that, please share it with us.

 Ever noticed that the monster on it looks like ganon? I think its a drawing of Link fighting Ganon

Hi no Seijin

I agree with CA.  Ganon has never came close to looking like a dinosaur.

I believe I read it in an issue of Nintendo Power, but I got rid of all of those that I had long ago.

Well, that's could be considered canon, if Nintendo said so.

what about after he transformed? He did have a tail then...although it is hard to get all of him in a pic since he's so huge after transforming...

And he moves too fast to get far away to get a decent image.

I think it's an interesting Easter Egg that perhaps havent been cracked yet? I mean, Link does fight off quite a lot of dragons, but none of them looks like that type of dragon.
Perhaps it was but a downscetched daydream that he once would have to fight some big monster. If we take the drawing, and eliminate the possibility of a dragon, I'd say it's Ganon he's fighting.

But I'm far out of the Zelda nowadays, I need to get down there and play some more. I havent bought my Nintendo Wii yet, and Twilight Princess.  :(
But I will eventually get there as well, I just have enough of other stuff to spend my money on.

What? Ganon looks nothing like that drawing. What are you talking about? It's just monster, not Ganon specifically.
