"Right. Valoo. One of those vowel sounds. Why isn't it possible?"

Permalink

"Valoo is... Upset. Surely you've noticed the storm clouds that hang above us even at this moment."

As if to punctuate his statement, there's a muted but deep roar.

"Whatever has him so riled up is stirring about the winds and the volcano's activity to dangerous extremes."

"Is there a way to... un-rile him?"

Permalink

Sigh. "If I knew that, I would be doing it."

Permalink

"Mmm... Oh, I have this Wind Waker baton and I was told there was a shrine with a pattern for it somewhere on the island, do you know where?"

Permalink

"Certainly, I can show you the shrine. Well, what's left of it. And after, perhaps you'd like to come meet the chieftain? We came to an agreement that we'd like to help you, even if the help we can give is only a hot meal."

"Sure, sounds like fun."

He walks back down that little tunnel.

"...Ah. I had assumed someone was maintaining the bridge. How did you get up here?"

Permalink

"Climbed the ledge."

Permalink

"We'll have to replace it. I'll bring it up. The shrine is through a hard to spot path about halfway down, follow me."

Permalink

"Okay."

Follow follow.

Here is an old shrine, overlooking the sea. The mailbird claps his hands and bows at the shrine. It has two monuments similar to that one back on Windfall Island, though one is destroyed, unreadable...

The one that's still present seems to indicate the sequence 'up, left, right'.

So she what, moves the baton like that? She gets it out and tries. Up, left, right.

Permalink

...There's something in the back of her head. It's not quite right, what she just did, but it could be right. 

Permalink

Hmmm. She tries again.

Up. Left. Right.

Permalink

Her 'left' was pretty good, but the other two were not quite right. It's almost as if... It wants more flourish and sense of style? And it wants her to do something after the up-left-right.

"Is that the Wind Waker?"

Permalink

"Yeah. I'm trying to get it to do the sequence here but something's... missing."

Permalink

"Well, you're not following the traditional motions most conductors use. Here, watch this..." He demonstrates with a twig.

Permalink

"Ohhh."

Okay, try again like that. Flourishes!

Permalink

There is a sudden shift in the wind, a gust to the north. The Wind Waker thrums in her hand.

Permalink

"It worked!"

Permalink

"Most impressive, to have that much control on the first try."

That... Is not mailbird's voice. It's the voice of a frog floating on an unusually solid cloud.

Permalink

"Uh... hi?"

Permalink

"...Who are you?"
