Ancient Ruins (Link's Awakening)

The Ancient Ruins is a location from The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. It is found in the Face Shrine region of Koholint Island.

Story
On his quest to retrieve the sixth Instrument of the Sirens, Link is advised by the Owl to travel to the Ancient Ruins in the southern area of the Face Shrine region. Here, he defeats the Armos found in the area and eventually makes it through to a small shrine. Inside the shrine, Link is confronted by an Armos Knight — the hero defeats this huge foe, who leaves behind the Face Key. A door in the shrine is also unlocked, and inside this room, Link finds a mural of the Wind Fish and the Owl. The mural states that whomever wakes the Wind Fish from his slumber also "ends the dream", which in this case is Koholint Island. Upon exiting the Ancient Ruins, the Owl appears before Link and confirms that the mural is true and that if he awakens the Wind Fish, Koholint will disappear.
