After [[Agahnim]] rose to power and the soldiers began wandering the area in search of the sage's descendants, he fled to a secret retreat near the Eastern Palace. In order to find him, he had to get directions from a young boy who knew where Sahasrahla had went. |
− | + | Link found him at his hiding place, Sahasrahla told Link about the nature of the [[Master Sword]]. He instructed Link that if he was serious, he should go to the Eastern Palace and retrieve the [[Pendant of Courage]]. When Link returned with the pendant, Sahasrahla told him more of the story of the Master Sword and the Knights of Hyrule. He then gave Link the [[Pegasus Boots]], which were a magical item passed down by his ancestors. He also encouraged Link to go and find the [[Ice Rod]], which he felt would be helpful to him. | |
− | + | Not only was he wise, but Sahasrahla also possessed the ability to communicate telepathically. In dungeons, he would use special blocks to communicate to Link and provide him with helpful information. He also spoke to Link telepathically after Link retrieved the Master Sword. When Link was forced into the [[Dark World]] (after defeating Agahnim), Sahasrahla communicated to Link again telling him the nature of the [[Sacred Realm|Golden Land]]. He then begged Link to find the maidens and bring peace back to Hyrule. After Link defeated Ganon, Sahasrahla was able to return to his home in Kakariko Village. | |

The boy and the old woman in Sahasrahla's house (who only refers to him as "the elder") are both seen with Sahasrahla in the ending, but their relation is unclear. |
