Guru-Guru worked at a windmill in [[Kakariko Village]], where he merrily played his music. However, Guru-Guru dreamed of a song that went around and around like the windmill. He got what he wanted when [[Link|a boy]] came to him and played the [[Song of Storms]]. This summoned a shower that sped the windmill up. Guru-Guru was initially overjoyed about this, but his joy turned into rage when he realized that the windmill was spinning too fast. He memorized the Song that had brought him this grief.

Guru-Guru worked at a windmill in [[Kakariko Village]], where he merrily played his music. However, Guru-Guru dreamt of a song that went around and around like the windmill. He got what he wanted when [[Link|a boy]] came to him and played the [[Song of Storms]]. This summoned a shower that sped the windmill up. At first Guru-Guru was glad about this, but his joy turned into rage when he realized that the windmill was spinning too fast. He memorized the Song that had brought him this grief.
  
Seven years later, Guru-Guru was still in the windmill, but he had become bitter and angry. A young man eventually visited him. Since this man reminded Guru-Guru of the boy, Guru-Guru taught him the Song of Storms. However, when the man played it on his [[ocarina]], another rainstorm came and caused the windmill to spin wildly out of control once again. In that moment, Guru-Guru realized that the man and the boy were the same person, Link. Afterwards Link traveled back in time to when he was a child to play the song for Guru-Guru the first time, forming a time loop.

The [[Terminan|Termina]] version of Guru-Guru once played the part of a human in an animal troupe, until he was disgusted that a dog was chosen over him to lead the troupe. The dog turned out to be a good leader, but Guru-Guru stole the dog's Bremen Mask and left the troupe.

Guru-Guru kept this dark secret and became a member of the [[Gorman]] troupe. If Link met him one night at the laundry pool in [[Clock Town]], Guru-Guru would confess his crime to Link, his mood swinging rapidly as he did so. He felt better after his confession and gave Link the [[Bremen Mask]].

In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons|Oracle of Seasons]]'', Guru-Guru worked at a windmill located in the [[Holodrum|Woods of Winter]]. He thought his windmill wasn't going fast enough and wanted something to grease it up. Link gave him some of [[Syrup|Syrup's]] Engine Grease, and Guru-Guru gave him a Phonograph in exchange. History then repeated itself, because the Engine Grease caused the windmill to spin wildly out of control.
