INTRODUCTION
You'll see a short cutscene of the protagonist, Link, riding alone in the forest on his trusty steed, Epona. He looks depressed, or deep in thought. Two fairies appear and scare the horse while Link is looking the other way, spooking Epona and causing Link to fall on the ground, knocking him unconscious. Come on, he's suffered worse than that before. Unusal music introduces the Skull Kid, a rather odd character who comes and searches Link. After a moment, he finds the Ocarina of Time and plays a few notes. Awww, now he's got his spit all over it! As he giggles at his new toy, the fairies will begin arguing in the background. Link wakes up and after a shake of the head to get his bearings again, he glares at Skull Kid who tries to hide the Ocarina behind his back. Link tries to grab him, but he easily jumps out of his grip and onto Epona. Link tries to tackle him, but only manages to get his leg. Epona, meanwhile, rides off, dragging Link along the ground. The scene changes and Link loses his grip as they round a corner, leaving Skull Kid home free with both the Ocarina and the horse. Eep, get up dude!

Starting Area
Now that you have gained control of your hero, get used to the controls. Use the Analog Stick to move around, press the A button to do actions and interact with people and objects and press the B button to slash your sword. Test it out by slashing bushes nearby. This is actually one of the best places to get cash early on in the game, so if you wish, you can stay for a bit and load up. You can enter the next area and return repeatedly to make the bushes reappear, also being able to get a ton of rupees before you move on.

Another short clip will begin of Link falling off of a ledge, after which you'll get the privilege of watching a Windows 95 screensaver-worthy scene. Link lands on a pink flower and the Skull Kid will insinuate having done something horrible to Epona. Meany! It looks like he decides that Link's horror at the previous comment is a gesture of war, because he takes this opportunity to send you in to a terrifying dream. Run away from the Deku, Link!
