Template:Place Eldin is a region in Breath of the Wild.

Features and Overview

Eldin is an expansive region in northern Hyrule. It is a largely mountainous stretch of land that densely consists of steep cliffs and deep gorges. The region is a rugged badland in the south, but is otherwise harmless. Further to the north and closer to the center, however, the region grows progressively more perilous with active volcanoes and pools of lava. As Link nears this area, the temperature grows exceedingly hot and causes Link and any wooden gear equipped to catch on fire. Link can withstand the high temperatures by consuming Foods or Elixirs that grant heat resistance, or by wearing any of the Flamebreaker equipment, allowing him to safely travel through the hotter region.

-On rare occasions, in a work of fiction, there are certain inconsistencies in regards of some events, design or the placement of some characters or elements in a particular place. In popular culture, these inconsistencies are known as '''goofs''' or '''mistakes'''. Though infrequently, some mistakes have been present in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]], although these details are hardly a detriment for the development of the plot or realism. Some types of mistakes may include:

-*In the [[Kasuto#Hidden Town of Kasuto|Hidden Town of Kasuto]], an Old Lady asks Link whether or not he has "the 7 [[Magic Jar#Magic Containers|Magic Container]]s". However, there are only ''four'' (including the one inside the Lady's house) in the game, as the initial four bars of magic Link has at first are default.

+[[Category:Places in Breath of the Wild]]
-==''A Link to the Past''==
-*On the eastern side of [[Death Mountain]] in the [[Light World]], what appears to be the lowest cave entrance actually leads to the second floor of the cave network within, while an entrance on an apparent higher level leads to a lower section of the cave.
-*Prior to the final boss, [[Ganon]] leaves [[Agahnim]]'s body and flies towards the [[Pyramid of Power]]. Link then successfully calls the [[Duck]] to pick him up and give chase, which shouldn't have worked, as he was currently in the [[Dark World]], and the duck is only accessible from the [[Light World]].
-==''Link's Awakening''==
-*Before she temporarily joins Link to awake the sleeping [[Walrus]], [[Marin]] says she will wish to the [[Wind Fish]] to become a seagull and fly in the sky. However, talking to her after all of her storyline appearances will reveal that her wish ''is secret'', even though she told it to Link earlier. Also, it couldn't possibly be a different wish that she is keeping secret, as said wish is shown to come true in the perfect ending.
-==''Ocarina of Time''==
-*In the original [[Nintendo 64]] version of the game, the [[Carpet Merchant]]'s dialogue contains a typo. He greets Link by saying "Well Come" instead of the proper "Welcome".<ref>{{Cite|Well Come! I am selling stuff, strange and rare, from all over the world to everybody.|Carpet Merchant|OoT}}</ref> The GameCube version corrected this error.<ref>{{Cite|Welcome! I am selling stuff, strange and rare, from all over the world to everybody.|Carpet Merchant|OoT}}</ref>
-*When Link draws his Bow, the arrow is held on the underside of the Bow. It should be held on the top.
-==''Majora's Mask''==
-*In [[Romani Ranch]], the entrance wooden arch says in Japanese (and written in Hylian) "Welcome to Kakariko Village". The reason for this is that the game reuses several elements from ''Ocarina of Time'', and the developers forgot to properly change the lead text of the arch.
-*In the [[Nintendo 64]] version of the game, when [[Cremia]] hugs Link after he defends her reserves of milk from the [[Gorman Brothers]] after the first time, the comment on the scene has a typo. It reads: "You feel all warm and fuzzy! inside!".<ref>{{Cite|You did it! You helped Cremia! You feel all warm and fuzzy! inside! Sigh... You could get used to this!|N/A|MM}}</ref>
-*In [[Ikana Canyon]], a [[Garo]] ninja tells Link that "every two minutes," [[Pamela]] exits from her house as long as there aren't [[Gibdo|evil spirits]]. The in-game [[Termina Clock]] reads those real-life minutes as ''hours'', meaning that this is advice that breaks the fourth wall.
-*When Link arrives on the [[Moon (Object)|Moon]] (which only occurs between 12:00 am and 5:59 am in the [[Final Day]]) and checks his [[Bombers' Notebook]], he will notice the flat blue line indicating that it's supposedly 6:00am (in the same day), earlier than the time of arrival. The only possible explanation for this is that the Notebook tries to indicate that it's 6:00am in the [[New Day]], except this day is not included in the aforementioned logbook recorder.
-==''Oracle of Seasons''==
-*When speaking to the [[Floodgate Keeper]] after completing [[Poison Moth's Lair]], he will say a part of [[Impa]]'s dialogue.<ref>{{Cite|Link! Are you all right? Actually, I am the nurse of Hyrule's Princess Zelda. And Din's no dancer either. She is actually the Oracle of Seasons who wields control over the forces of nature. Zelda has mystical powers that told of a curtain of shadow drawing around Din. I was instructed to take her to Hyrule in secret. You can get to the keyhole from that puddle outside. Did you open the floodgates? The vines there get so overgrown in summer!|Floodgate Keeper|OOS}}</ref>
-==''Four Swords''==
-*[[:File:WWLink Bow.png|Artwork for Green Link using a Bow]] shows the Arrow being nocked incorrectly; the cock vane is facing inward when it should be outward.
-==''The Wind Waker''==
-*Since [[Niko]] was never able to pass the second version of his own test,<ref>{{Cite|This isn't good... I've never even passed this test... How could he do it so quickly...?|Niko|TWW}}</ref> he should not have been able to reach the other side of the ship when demonstrating the test to Link.
-*If the current shape of [[Greatfish Isle]] originates from Ganondorf destroying it, then the [[Special Chart#Ghost Ship Chart|Ghost Ship Chart]] and the [[Triforce Chart]] should not be able to pinpoint their treasures' locations with the charts portraying the island in its destroyed state.
-*The [[Special Chart#Island Hearts Chart|Island Hearts Chart]] shows the number of [[Heart Container|Heart Piece]]s correctly on each island, with the exception of [[Windfall Island]]. There are eight Heart Pieces there, not nine. The accidentally-added one is actually received on [[Greatfish Isle]] from the Goron merchant. It is true that the [[Island Trading Sequence]] starts on Windfall Island, but the ultimate prize of it is still elsewhere.
-*Usually, when Link feeds a [[Fishman]] swimming near an island, it will be marked in the [[Sea Chart]] as visited, and then the Fishman gives information about the island or something else; and when the same fish is fed again, he complains about Link's tendency to always give the same type of [[All-Purpose Bait]]. A mistake related to this happens in [[Outset Island]], [[Forsaken Fortress]], [[Windfall Island]] and [[Dragon Roost Island]]. The first three islands are already marked in the Sea Chart from the beginning of the game, and Dragon Roost Island is marked by the local Fishman for free (without having to feed him). In the four cases, however, when Link attracts the Fishmen of those islands with the bait for the first time, they will argue that he already fed them with the same bait, thus complaining in the same way a Fishman fed twice does.
-*When learning the [[Spin Attack#Great Spin Attack|Hurricane Spin]] from [[Orca]], the old man drops his spear and begins to cry once Link successfully performs it for the first time. In the very next shot, however, the spear is back in Orca's hand, before he even wipes away his tears.
-*While using the Seagull Pen option with the [[Tingle Tuner]], [[Tingle]] tells Link to change the direction of the wind by "playing" the Wind's Requiem. The proper terminology would be to ''conduct'' the song, as the [[Wind Waker (Item)|Wind Waker]] is actually a conductor's baton as opposed to an instrument.
-*When Link collapses after defeating Ganondorf, Zelda comes in from his right and catches him, and remains there when the King of Hyrule appears. The camera then cuts to the king, and in the next shot of Link and Zelda, the two have switched sides with each other, with Zelda standing on Link's left. Also, Link's shield disappears entirely during this scene with no explanation, only reappearing after the credits roll.
-==''The Minish Cap''==
-*The [[Moblin#The Minish Cap|Spear Moblin]] [[Figurines in The Minish Cap|Figurine]] says that Spear Moblins appear in [[Minish Woods]], although this is not true.<ref>{{Cite|Appears in the Minish Woods, etc.|Spear Moblin Figurine|TMC}}</ref>
-*The [[Swordsman Newsletter]] also claims that Moblins appear in Minish Woods, and that they can be defeated for quick cash, although they do not actually drop any more [[Rupee]]s than other enemies.<ref>{{Cite|Those pig-faced Moblins... You see them around the Minish Woods, right? They're big and dumb? Well, they're also rich! Beat one up for some quick cash!|Swordsman Newsletter|TMC}}</ref>
-*Although both the Figurine and the game only feature seven [[Blade Brothers]] plus [[Blade Brothers#Swiftblade I|Swiftblade the First]], [[Blade Brothers#Swiftblade|Swiftblade]] claims in the [[Swordsman Newsletter]] that, there are nine [[Blade Brothers]], not counting Swiftblade the First.<ref>{{Cite|There are nine of us, not counting the ghost of Swiftblade the First.|Swordsman Newsletter|TMC}}</ref>
-*In the European version of the game, the [[Wizzrobe#Color differences|Ice Wizzrobe]] Figurine advises Link to hit them with his [[Fire Rod]].<ref>{{Cite|They're weak against fire, so hit them with your Fire Rod!|Ice Wizzrobe Figurine (PAL version)|TMC}}</ref> As the Fire Rod was removed from the game in development, the Ice Wizzrobe's actual weakness is the [[Lantern#The Minish Cap|Flame Lantern]]. The North American version corrected this.<ref>{{Cite|They're weak against fire, so attack with fire for a quick battle!|Ice Wizzrobe Figurine (NTSC version)|TMC}}</ref>
-==''Twilight Princess''==
-*Before the [[Shadow Beast]]s' warp sent part of the [[Bridge of Eldin]] to [[Gerudo Desert]], it still had the two large fissures, exactly delimiting what is later removed.
-*It is said that [[Ilia]] takes refuge within the [[Hidden Village]], where [[Impaz]] takes cares of her and eventually helps her escape the village.<ref>{{cite|That sweet girl... She worried about this old woman even as I helped her to escape from here...|Impaz|TP}}</ref> However, according to [[Gor Coron]], the village has been blocked by the boulder at the entrance for an indefinite time,<ref>{{cite|But...a rockslide blocked the way to the village long ago, so you can't get there anymore.|Gor Coron|TP}}</ref> which not only renders [[Impaz]]'s telling of the events inconsistent, but also contradicts the possibility that Ilia could have been in the village in the first place.
-==''Phantom Hourglass''==
-*In the beginning of the game, Link is told that every time an earthquake occurs in [[Mercay Island]], the southern bridge breaks and has to be repaired; indeed, this is the case at the start of the game. However, when the young hero is looking for the third [[Sea Chart]], another earthquake occurs and the bridge remains intact.
-* On the Collection screen, the names of the Compliment Card and Complimentary Card are swapped.
-==''Spirit Tracks''==
-*When the Goron Elder's son is transported by Link towards [[Hyrule Castle Town]], he (like any other character who travels on board with the [[Spirit Train]]) keeps an eye on how well Link drives the train. When they arrive at the aforementioned destination, however, the Goron child tells Link that he was asleep all along during the travel and would have liked to watch the fields' scenery while awaiting the end of the ordeal.
-*After Link manages to defeat the [[Demon Train]] in the [[Dark Realm]], he and the characters traveling with him (Princess Zelda, [[Anjean]], and [[Byrne]]) plan on hopping on the top of the aforementioned train in order to confront [[Chancellor Cole]] and [[Malladus]]. During this cutscene, a very clear light is seen in the windows of the [[Spirit Train]], identical to the sunlight, even though the characters are in a ''darker'' world than Hyrule.
-*[[:File:Link and Bow.png|Artwork of Link using the Bow]] depicts the Arrow being nocked incorrectly.
-==''Skyward Sword''==
-*The [[Ancient Robot]]s are named with model numbers, starting with the LD- abbreviation. LD stands for '''[[Lanayru Desert]]''', and the different language versions of the game change the abbreviation in accordance to the translated words, including Japanese (RS for '''''R'''anēru '''S'''abaku''), Spanish (DL for '''''D'''esierto de '''L'''anayru''), etc. The problem is that the robots existed (or were created) before [[Lanayru Province]] became a desert, when it was still a grove with a sea. This means there is a mistake between the abbreviation and the place it's named after.
-*In the reveal trailer for ''Skyward Sword'', when Link draws his Bow, the arrow is nocked incorrectly with the cock vane facing inward.
-==Non-canon Mistakes==
-{{Noncanon|start}}
-===''Super Smash Bros. Melee''===
-*In the opening animation for {{SSBM}}, [[:File:Bow (SSBM).jpg|Adult Link can be seen drawing a bow incorrectly]], in two ways. Firstly, he is drawing the bow at chest height, when it should instead be closer to his face. The arrow is also nocked incorrectly; the cock vane is facing inward, while it should be facing outward. [[:File:Fire Bow.jpg|Young Link's bow animation]] also shows this error.
-===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
-*[[:File:Hero's Bow (SSBB).jpg|Toon Link's Bow animation]] depicts the Arrow being nocked incorrectly.
-*[[:File:Light Arrow (SSBB).jpg|Princess Zelda's Light Bow animation]] technically shows the Arrow being nocked correctly, though the Arrow is on the wrong side of the Bow.
-===[[The Legend of Zelda (TV series)|TV animated series]]===
-*In one scene of the episode [[Fairies in the Spring]], when Link and Zelda are speaking to the King, the animation cel is off-center and the edge of the film strip is visible.
-*In one scene of the episode [[The Missing Link]], when Ganon and the Stalfos are talking in the Evil Jar, Ganon's mouth is moving when a Stalfos is speaking.
-*In one scene of the episode [[Doppelganger]], when Link and Zelda's evil clone are carrying the Triforce of Wisdom inside Ganon's castle, after the evil clone kisses Link, his mouth moves when she is speaking.
-*In another scene of Doppelganger, Zelda's outfit is miscolored and she appears to be the evil clone.
-===''Captain N: The Game Master''===
-*[[:File:Zelda's Bow 2 (Captain N).png|In one scene]], Princess Zelda is shown drawing her Bow at chest height, when it should be closer to her face.
