| − | '''Zora's River''' is a recurring location in the ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|Zelda]]'' series. It is one of the main bodies of water in [[Hyrule]], with its water source being either [[Zora's Domain]] or [[Zora's Fountain]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ==Appearances== |
||
| − | ===''A Link to the Past''=== |
||
| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]'', Zora's River runs throughout all of Hyrule. At its source are [[Zora's Lake]], [[Zora's Waterfall]], and the [[Waterfall of Wishing]], which are located at the northeast part of Hyrule. From the source at Zora's Lake, it flows down south of [[Death Mountain]], continues between the [[Witch's Hut|Magic Shop]] and [[Graveyard]], surrounds [[Hyrule Castle]], flows just east of [[Link's House]], and continues south, supplying [[Lake Hylia]] with its water. There are 3 bridges that cross over it as well as two natural bridges on the east and west portions of [[Hyrule Castle]]. Zora's River has one [[Whirlpool Waterway]] close to the [[Witch's Hut|Witch's Hut]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Link cannot swim in the river unless he has the [[Zora's Flippers]], which can be bought at the Zora's Waterfall from the [[Great Zora]] for just 500 [[Rupee]]s. The only enemies in the river itself are [[River Zora]]s, and it has several piers where Link can climb up and return to land. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===''Ocarina of Time''=== |
||
| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', water from Zora's River flows from Zora's Fountain, which serves as the water source of all Hyrule. Eventually, the water of Zora's River reaches Lake Hylia, passing through [[Gerudo Valley]] in the process.<ref>{{Cite|All of the water in Hyrule flows from Zora's Fountain. That water flows through Zora's River, which eventually reaches Lake Hylia to the south.|A Zora|Ocarina of Time}}</ref> At the northern section of the river is the [[Sleepless Waterfall]], a seemingly impassable waterfall that protects the entrance to Zora's Domain. Zora's River is accessible either by [[Hyrule Field]] or through an underwater portal located in the [[Lost Woods]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | A few bridges are built over the river for easy crossing. Its waters, however, are infested with monsters such as [[Octorok]]s and Blue [[Tektite]]s. On the way to the Sleepless Waterfall is a group of frogs collectively known as the [[Fabulous Five Froggish Tenors]], although they disappear when Link returns to the river seven years later. As in ''A Link to the Past'', Zora's River passes in front of [[Death Mountain]] in ''Ocarina of Time''. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===''Twilight Princess''=== |
||
| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', the majority of Zora's River is used for two mini-games and for capturing [[Shadow Insect]]s. This part of the river is not accessible by foot and can only be reached by boat or [[Kargarok]]. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Unlike ''A Link to the Past'' and ''Ocarina of Time'', Zora's River does not pass in front of [[Death Mountain]] in ''Twilight Princess''. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ====Upper Zora's River==== |
||
| − | [[File:UpperZorasRiver.jpg|right|thumb|250px|The Upper Zora's River]] |
||
| − | Upper Zora's River is the location of [[Link]]'s first fight with [[Shadow Beast]]s while in Hylian form in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', and is also the location of a [[Howling Stone]]. When the young hero defeats the messengers, [[Iza]], the owner of the boat rental shop, will thank him by giving him a ride down to [[Lake Hylia]] by use of her boat rides. She also asks Link to blow up some rocks while he paddles down the river, and she provides [[Bomb Arrow]]s to help. After clearing the way and returning, Link can play the [[Rapids Ride#Twilight Princess|Rapid Ride]] mini game, where he will again use Bomb Arrows to hit targets, but instead of rocks, Iza has placed large pots for him to destroy. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Iza's sister, [[Hena]], also resides in Upper Zora's River. Hena runs a [[Fishing Hole]] where Link can go [[fishing]]. Link can bobber fish without charge in the fishing hole, or he can rent a canoe from Hena for a small charge and go lure fishing instead. Hena also gives Link a chance to test his skills in the game of [[Rollgoal]], which she invented herself. |
||
| − | |||
| − | ===''Link's Crossbow Training''=== |
||
| − | Zora's River appears in two stages of ''[[Link's Crossbow Training]]''. The first appearance in [[Link%27s_Crossbow_Training#Stage_2|Stage 2]] places Link inside of a canoe and travels downstream of the river of [[Iza|Iza's]] [[Rapid Ride]]. The second appearance of the river in [[Link%27s_Crossbow_Training#Stage_4|Stage 4]] is specifically seated in the outer waters of [[Zora's Domain]]. |
