Objectives

Take Linken's Sword to Donova Snowden in Winterspring

•  [Linken's Training Sword] (provided)

Description

You see, I have no idea how I ended up here. No one really knows—it's a secret to everybody! I just can't seem to remember anything...

These items you brought to me, though... I am remembering something.

My sword. I am supposed to strengthen it somehow, but I'm really not sure why. Sorry I can't tell you more, but I just don't remember!

Anyhoo, I do know where you can take it—Donova Snowden in Winterspring. You'll find her by the hot springs. She can temper the sword by the pools there.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 7350 XP

Progress

My, my... So Linken did finally get around to sending me his sword.

Completion

Well, of course I can temper this sword. While I'm working, you can explain what took Linken so long to get this to me. He's not usually one to forget things...

Notes

Donova tempering the sword.

On completion:

Donova Snowden says: Please, follow me.

Donova runs over to the nearby pool and kneels next to it.

Donova Snowden says: I haven't really figured out what it is, but there's something strange about the hot springs...

Donova Snowden tosses the sword into the shallow pool.

She runs back to her tent.

Donova Snowden says: I've found that when I throw something into this water, it has improved incredibly when I retrieve it.

Donova Snowden says: Well, whatever it is, it works quite well!

Donova Snowden says: And I am determined to find out more... So if you need my help again, you know where I'll be.

Trivia

The next quest, It's a Secret to Everybody, rewards Linken with Linken's Training Sword after some traveling, which is quite similar to how Link always starts off acquiring a weak sword. In a later quest,  [52] Linken's Sword, Linken upgrades his sword to Linken's Superior Sword. To get this upgraded sword, you have to push on a gravestone ( [52] A Grave Situation), as in the original Legend of Zelda.
