Story
After defeating Ganon and saving Hyrule and the Triforce, Link sets out on a quest to make himself stronger by training across the world. After completing his training, Link is sailing back to Hyrule when a powerful storm breaks out, destroying his boat and knocking him out at sea.
Link washes ashore on an island, where he is found and nursed back to health by two of the locals, Marin and Tarin. When he wakes up, they explain that he is on Koholint Island. As Link sets out to retrieve his equipment, he meets an owl, who tells him that the giant egg on the top of the island's mountain contains the sleeping Wind Fish, and that only he can awaken it, as the Wind Fish is the only way Link will be able to leave the island. Thus, Link sets out on a quest to find the Instruments of the Sirens and wake up the Wind Fish.
