Talk:Eldin (Skyward Sword)

Eldin set us up!
Alright, I've been thinking about the circumstances leading up to Link meeting Eldin, and frankly, everything points to a major story element that we have yet to notice. I am now almost certain that Eldin arranged for the events that put Link at such a disadvantage prior to their actual meeting. Firstly, we have a single, unprecedented and unfollowed spasm of volcanic activity that was neither an actual eruption, nor appears to be recurring tectonic activity. As strange as this is, what's stranger is the precise timing with which it occured, right as Link was landing, high enough to knock him unconscious, yet low enough to avoid serious injury. We know that the Spirit Dragons have a massive amount of control over their respective element, and it would have been very simple for Eldin to have caused such volcanic activity. Spirit Dragons, as Faron demonstrated, also have a great degree of awareness over their territories, and it is more than a little bit odd that, despite previously coming literally yards from where Eldin resided in the volcano, Eldin never gave any indication that he had been aware of Link before their encounter. Nonverbally, however, it is heavily suggested that Eldin knew of Link, and his troubles within his province. Eldin never shows surprise at meeting link, and continuosly smiles as he "gives" link the part of the song. But did he give it to him? Faron made no effort to disguise the test she gave to link, and Lanayru owed Link his grattitude for saving his life, but when we meet Eldin, he gives you the song without offering any sort of challenge. Why? Because we just passed his test. Eldin orchestrated the volcanic activity and the challenges Link was made to face as a trial to prove that Link was powerful enough to recieve his piece of the song. I'd like to put this on the theories section, but i would like to hear input before i do, so as to avoid it being taken down
