Changes: Maku Tree

Revision as of 00:34, 4 February 2014

Template:Boss Cyclok, Stirrer of Winds, is the second boss in Phantom Hourglass, and appears in the Temple of Wind.

As Link climbs to the top of the Temple of Wind, strong gusts from an unknown origin delay his progress. At his destination, the door shuts behind him, and a flying Octorok-like monster riding a tornado descends to fight. The monster is the boss, which appears to face the Hero.

Strategy

Cyclok Critical — Cyclok's Critical Point

While fighting Cyclok, any one of three points on the area's floor will be covered with a small tornado. Throwing a bomb into one of these cyclones will send the explosive flying upwards, and if one of these bombs hits Cyclok, he will be temporarily brought to the ground. While his foe is stunned, Link can make multiple damaging sword slashes or bomb throws on the monster before it recovers flight. Doing this several times will end in Cyclok's defeat.

The monster's main method of attack is to dive bomb towards Link, but all the hero can do to avoid this is walk out of the way. Cyclok's second attack involves spitting miniature tornadoes in Link's direction, which will case damage on impact. Much like the cyclone that normally appears in the arena, Cyclok's projectiles can be used by Link to launch bombs.

Once Link defeats the Stirrer of Winds, he acquires more sand for the Phantom Hourglass, and a Heart Container. By slaying the monster and destroying its seal, Link frees and earns the accompaniment of the Spirit of Wisdom, Neri.

Trivia

In Wind Waker, the statue that guards Gale Isle bears a resemblance to Cyclok.
The fight against Cyclok is very similar to one of the forms of Vaati in Four Swords and in Four Swords Adventures.
The mark on Cyclok's head is the same design as the Wind Element from the Minish Cap.
The name Cyclok is a portmanteau of cyclone and Octorok, another Zelda enemy.
In Hyrule Historia, concept artwork for Cyclok was incorrectly labeled Octorok.

+'''Cyclok''', Stirrer of Winds, is the second [[boss]] in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]'', and appears in the [[Temple of Wind]].
-The '''Maku Tree''' is an important character in the plots of {{OoA}} and {{OoS}} and is the guardian entity of the respective lands of [[Labrynna]] and [[Holodrum]]. Although the Maku Tree plays an identical roles in both games, various differences in character can be observed in its two appearances. This is mainly because the Maku Tree is female in ''Oracle of Ages'' and male in ''Oracle of Seasons''.
+As [[Link]] climbs to the top of the [[Temple of Wind]], strong gusts from an unknown origin delay his progress. At his destination, the door shuts behind him, and a flying [[Octorok]]-like monster riding a tornado descends to fight. The monster is the boss, which appears to face the Hero.
-==Common Attributes==
-[[File:Hall of Secrets.png|thumb|240px|right|The [[Hall of Secrets]] located within the hollow section of the Maku Tree]]
-Although different in terms of personality, the Maku Tree's role in the plot in ''Oracle of Ages'' and ''Oracle of Seasons'' is nearly identical. Guardian entity of the lands of [[Labrynna]] and [[Holodrum]], the Maku Tree is one of the first characters Link meets in the game. Link, who seeks out the Maku Tree for advice when first arriving in Labrynna or Holodrum, finds the Maku Tree in a weakened state due the havoc wreaked by [[Veran]] or [[Onox]].<ref>{{Cite|What's to be done, Link? With the seasons in chaos, the land is robbed of the very essence of nature, draining all of my might!|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|With the flow of time disrupted, my memory is fading... What will we do? I'm at a loss...|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> In order to defeat the villain, Link must restore the Maku Tree's power by gathering the eight Essences ([[Essences of Time]] for ''Ages'', [[Essences of Nature]] for ''Seasons'') scattered across the land.<ref>{{Cite|You'll need the eight Essences of Nature that lie sleeping in Holodrum. Gathering all eight is the only option.|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|I don't recall, but I think you need the eight Essences of Time hidden in Labrynna to beat Veran! The essences hold the power to see the truth, and they hold my memory!|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> Throughout Link's quest, the Maku Tree offers Link helpful advice and information via telepathy; after each dungeon, he/she will point Link in the direction of the next essence. In both games, the Maku Tree is unable to sense the last essence and has Link find it on his own. By selecting the Maku Tree's square on the overworld [[map]], Link can hear at any time the last words the Maku Tree said to him.
+==Strategy==
-With each Essence, the Maku Tree will grow, at which point Link will even be able to enter the hollow of the Maku Tree, where the [[Hall of Secrets]] is located. Eventually, Link will be able to climb up into the higher boughs of the Maku Tree, eventually reaching its very top. In these boughs, Link will find useful things such as [[Gasha Seed]]s and [[Fairy|Fairies]], and even a [[Great Fairy]]. Once the eight essences have been gathered, the Maku Tree regains his/her powers and is able to produce a [[Huge Maku Seed]], an item capable of dispelling the barrier surrounding the antagonist's lair.<ref>{{Cite|Link! You've finally gathered all eight Essences of Nature. You've become a true hero who understands the Essences of Nature. You are hope for all that live! Take this seed!|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref>
+[[File:Cyclok Critical.png|left|thumb|Cyclok's [[Critical Point]]]]
+While fighting Cyclok, any one of three points on the area's floor will be covered with a small tornado. Throwing a bomb into one of these cyclones will send the explosive flying upwards, and if one of these bombs hits Cyclok, he will be temporarily brought to the ground. While his foe is stunned, Link can make multiple damaging sword slashes or bomb throws on the monster before it recovers flight. Doing this several times will end in Cyclok's defeat.
+The monster's main method of attack is to dive bomb towards Link, but all the hero can do to avoid this is walk out of the way. Cyclok's second attack involves spitting miniature tornadoes in Link's direction, which will case damage on impact. Much like the cyclone that normally appears in the arena, Cyclok's projectiles can be used by Link to launch bombs.
-In a [[Linked Game]], where the extended plot has [[Twinrova]] about to sacrifice [[Princess Zelda]] to resurrect [[Ganon]], the Oracles, once both have been freed, create a portal next to the Maku Tree allowing Link to access the [[Room of Rites]]. After the battle with [[Ganon]], the Maku Tree is able to rescue Link and Zelda by teleporting them out of the crumbling Room of Rites just as it collapses.
+Once Link defeats the Stirrer of Winds, he acquires more [[Sand of Hours|sand]] for the [[Phantom Hourglass (Item)|Phantom Hourglass]], and a [[Heart Container]]. By slaying the monster and destroying its seal, Link frees and earns the accompaniment of the Spirit of Wisdom, [[Neri]].
-When Link goes to meet the Maku Tree for the first time, he will find the way to the Maku Tree's grove barred by a closed gate. In ''Oracle of Ages'', Link must use a detour through [[Maku Road]] to reach the tree. In ''Oracle of Seasons'', the gate can only be opened by "one show shows courage".<ref>{{Cite|Maku Tree Gate: Show courage to gain passage!|[[Sign]]|OOS}}</ref> This is done by obtaining the [[Wooden Sword]] from the [[Hero's Cave]] and holding it up before the gate.
-==Maku Tree (Female)==
-===Characteristics===
-[[File:MakuTreeSprout.png|left|48px|The Maku Sprout]]
-The female Maku Tree seen in ''Oracle of Ages'' is bright and cheery. She is distinguished from her male counterpart by her rosy cheeks, the flower in her foliage (which bears the resemblance of a head of hair), and her generally womanly features and expressions. In the age of the past, the Maku Tree is a mere sapling. Due to certain events in the game, the Maku Tree becomes emotionally attached to Link to the point of proposing marriage. Her proposal remains unanswered throughout the game, much to her dismay.

-[[File:Oracle Of Ages - Maku Tree.png|thumb|right|The Maku Tree]]
-After witnessing [[Nayru (Oracle)|Nayru]]'s capture by the hands of the evil [[Veran]], the Sorceress of Shadows, [[Impa]] sends Link to see the Maku Tree to seek for help.<ref>{{Cite|Link, can you go meet the Maku Tree in Lynna Village? The Maku Tree is the guardian of Labrynna. Surely she can help.|[[Impa]]|OOA}}</ref> Almost as soon as Link meets the tree, a small group of Veran's forces attack the Maku Tree in the past, making her vanish in the present.<ref>{{Cite|I feel so weird. I'm vanishing! Something must be happening to me in the past! Help!|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> By travelling to the past, Link is able to save the Maku Tree, then only the Maku Sprout, from death. The Maku Tree admires Link's brave rescue, repeating that she will repay him "when she grows up".<ref>{{Cite|Thank you for rescuing me! I will never, ever forget it! And I promise I'll repay you when I grow up!|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> Just before returning to the present, the Maku Tree blurts out that she wishes to be his bride.<ref>{{Cite|Dear! ...Umm... ...ahh... When I grow up, I'm going to be your bride! Ahh! I said it!|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref>
-Upon returning to the present, Link finds the Maku Tree has lost most of her memory due to the disruption of the flow of time.<ref>{{Cite|With the flow of time disrupted, my memory is fading...|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> Despite this, she is still able to remember Link's rescue centuries ago. However, she seems to have confused the vow she made to marry Link as being Link's own words.<ref>{{Cite|hy are you here now? I've been waiting so long for you. Don't you remember? Hundreds of years ago? Link, you promised! "When I grow up, I'll marry you!" That's what you said, Link. Four hundred years I waited.|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> The Maku Tree is dismayed upon realizing that Link has not come back for her love.<ref>{{Cite|I knew you wouldn't forget about me. Our hearts are bound across time by a thread of... What? That's not why you're here? Why won't you listen to me? Fine! You want to talk about Veran, right?|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> Fortunately, she is able to focus on the task at hand, telling Link that in order to defeat Veran, Link must help restore the Maku Tree's memory by collecting the eight [[Essences of Time]] scattered across [[Labrynna]].<ref>{{Cite|I don't recall, but I think you need the eight Essences of Time hidden in Labrynna to beat Veran! The essences hold the power to see the truth, and they hold my memory!|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref>
-The Maku Tree then directs Link to the [[Yoll Graveyard]], the location of the first Essence of Time, giving him the [[Seed Satchel]] and [[Mystical Seeds#Ember Seed|Ember Seeds]] needed to access it.<ref>{{Cite|First, I want you to go to Yoll Graveyard in the east. I hear the first essence there. I can't do much, but take this.|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref> The Maku Tree will then go on to point Link in the direction of the next essence after every dungeon, except for the final essence, the [[Essences of Time#Falling Star|Falling Star]], which she cannot sense. She also informs Link when [[Queen Ambi]] leaves her [[Ambi's Palace|palace]], allowing him to rescue [[Nayru (Oracle)|Nayru]] from [[Veran]]'s clutches.<ref>{{Cite|Link! I have great news!!! Queen Ambi has just left the palace! Now is your chance! This may be your only opportunity to save Nayru!|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref>
-After Link gathers all the Essences and restores the Maku Tree's memory, she gives Link a [[Huge Maku Seed]], which allows him to penetrate the evil forces surrounding the [[Black Tower]].<ref>{{Cite|Link! You've collected all eight Essences of Time and know their power! Thanks to you, time flows true in me again, and I remember all I had forgotten! I'm the guardian of Nayru, Oracle of Ages, and my Maku Seed can be used only by a hero who knows the powers of the Essences of Time. The hero who knows the Essences of Time sees unwavering truth across time and space. If you can do this, Link you can stop Veran! Take this!|Maku Tree|OOA}}</ref>
-==Maku Tree (Male)==
-===Characteristics===
-[[File:OoS Maku Tree.png|thumb|right|The Maku Tree in slumber]]
-In opposition to his female counterpart, the male Maku Tree of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'' appears to be more mature nature, much like the [[Deku Tree]]. The Maku Tree is robbed of his strength by the destruction caused to the seasons of [[Holodrum]]. Constantly sleepy, he must be woken by popping his trademark nose bubble with the swing of a [[Sword]], should Link wish to speak to him. Doing so jolts the Maku Tree into waking, although he will fall back into slumber as soon as the conversation is over. One would be led to believe that the reason for the male Maku Tree's lack of energy and constant need for slumber is the absence of the Essences of Nature. However, even once all the essences are gathered and Onox is defeated, the Maku Tree still sleeps indefinitely.<ref>{{Cite|Hwaah... Say, Link! As peace returns to Holodrum, so I return to peaceful rest!|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref>
-===Biography===
-After regaining consciousness following the events of [[Din (Oracle)|Din]]'s capture by the hands of [[Onox]], the General of Darkness, Link finds [[Impa]] standing over him. Impa sends Link to the Maku Tree to seek help.<ref>{{Cite|Please take my message to the Maku Tree in Horon Village. The Maku Tree is the guardian of all Holodrum. Surely he can help.|Impa|OOS}}</ref> The Maku Tree, who had slept through the events of Din's capture and the subsequent destruction of the [[Temple of Seasons]], finds his body withered and his might drained by the chaos wreaked upon the four seasons, which has robbed the land of the very essence of nature.<ref>{{Cite|Hwaaa...... Wh-who's that? Did you wake me? Who are you? Hmm... What?!? Din was taken while I slept? There's no sign of the Temple of Seasons?!? This is awful!!! Guarding the oracle is my duty... Alas, how I've withered!|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|What's to be done, Link? With the seasons in chaos, the land is robbed of the very essence of nature, draining all of my might!|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref> In order to restore his might to help defeat Onox, the Maku Tree sends Link to gather the eight [[Essences of Nature]] scattered across Holodrum.<ref>{{Cite|You'll need the eight Essences of Nature that lie sleeping in Holodrum. Gathering all eight is the only option.|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref>
-[[File:Male Maku Tree 1.png|left|The withered Maku Tree at the beginning of the game]]
-[[File:Male Maku Tree 2.png|right|The Maku Tree during the rest of the game]]
-The Maku Tree sends link in the direction of [[Gnarled Root Dungeon]], the location of the first essence.<ref>{{Cite|Go to the Giant root near the lake up north! The first essence should be there, but I'd expect some resistance.|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref> After each dungeon, the Maku Tree guides Link in the direction of the next essence, with the exception of the final essence, the [[Essences of Nature#Changing Seasons|Changing Seasons]]. This may be because the dungeon in which it is located ([[Sword & Shield Maze]]) is not actually in [[Holodrum]], but in [[Subrosia]].<ref>{{Cite|Now for the last Essence of Nature! But this time, I saw no dreams... So I rely on you, Link. It is somewhere in Holodrum. Good luck!|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref> The Maku Tree also helps Link discover the [[Temple of Seasons]], where the [[Rod of Seasons]] is located.<ref>{{Cite|I saw the Temple of Seasons in a strange land I do not know. There I saw a precious item that will aid you, Link.|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref>
-Once all eight Essences of Nature have been gathered, the Maku Tree regains his former strength. He then provides Link with the [[Huge Maku Seed]], which allows the young hero to confront [[Onox]] and save [[Din (Oracle)|Din]].<ref>{{Cite|Link! You've finally gathered all eight Essences of Nature. You've become a true hero who understands the Essences of Nature. You are hope for all that live! Take this seed! Link! Surely now you can defeat Onox, the General of Darkness, and free Din, Oracle of Seasons!|Maku Tree|OOS}}</ref>
