Sage Medallion

are a group of NaN Items in.

Location and Uses
The NaN Sage Medallions represent the awakening and power of their respective NaN Sages. OoT3D: obtains each of them after awakening a new OoT3D:, whose powers are symbolically added to those of OoT3D:. Each OoT3D: bears the emblem and color of its respective element, and has the OoT3D: emblazoned on its back.

Modified versions of the fire and water emblems appear underneath OoT3D: and OoT3D: when they manifest before OoT3D: in the OoT3D:. The fire symbol faces to the left rather than the right, while the water symbol has eight points rather than six.

During the early development stages of, Nintendo intended that the Medallions could be used by Link. Several early screenshots depict Link with the Forest Medallion (then known as the Wind Medallion) equipped, as the Medallions were the original method of warping through Hyrule instead of using the Ocarina of Time.

In a November 1997 interview by Famimaga 64, Shigeru Miyamoto explained that the Medallions, known as "Magic Medallions", were supposed to have been used in conjunction with Link's Bow and Arrow. There were to be six types of Magic Medallions, including fire, wind, darkness, and light, meaning that they might have been used instead of the Fire, Ice, and Light Arrows that turned out in the final, released version of the game.

The Forest Medallion and Water Medallion were originally the "Wind Medallion" and "Ice Medallion," but their names and corresponding dungeons were changed during development. Two icons relating to these original medallions are still present in the game's code.

Remnants of these original themes are present in the released version of, such as Saria's part in Ganon's Castle being wind-themed, Ruto's part in Ganon's Castle being ice-themed, and the presence of an Ice-themed mini-dungeon. Also, the symbols on the Medallions were never changed; the Forest Medallion has an image similar to a wind-like vortex on it while the Water Medallion bears the image of a snowflake.
