Hero's Sword

Hero's Sword
The hero's sword is the default sword in the Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. It is given to Link by Orca on Outset Island, thus giving Link the ability to cut the saplings in the way of the bridge. Link needed to cross this bridge to save Tetra, who was dropped on the otherside by the Helmaroc king while en route to the Forsaken Fortress. Link uses this sword until he finds the Master Sword
