'''Koholint Island''' | '''Koholint Island''' is the setting for ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening]]''. It is an illusory island that [[Link]] is stranded upon throughout the entire game, and only exists in the [[Wind Fish]]'s dreams. | ||
Koholint Island does not have any ruler or governing body. Despite this, [[rupee]]s are still featured as a currency. Koholint Island's inhabitants consist of both humans and animals. There are two villages, [[Mabe Village]] and [[Animal Village]], which consist of [[human]]s and animals respectively. Koholint Island features a variety of landscapes, including a beach, grasslands, a desert, forest, a mountain range, and caverns. The main landmark is the [[Wind Fish's Egg]], which sits atop [[Tal Tal Mountain Range]], and is at the highest point of Koholint Island. | Koholint Island does not have any ruler or governing body.

In the opening, [[Link]] gets caught within a heavy storm, which destroys his ship. Link is washed away at sea and eventually washes ashore on Koholint Island. He is found by a young woman named [[Marin]], who takes him to her home to recover. After this, Link goes to [[Toronbo Shores]] to retrieve his [[sword]]. There, he is greeted by an [[Owl]], who tells him that he cannot leave the island unless he has awoken the Wind Fish. Link goes on a journey to retrieve the eight [[Siren Instrument]]s so that he can awaken the Wind Fish. The Owl guides Link throughout his adventure. | In the opening, [[Link]] gets caught within a heavy storm, which destroys his ship.

In the Wind Fish's Egg, Link has to fight the final boss, the [[Shadow]]s. Once Link defeats them, he climbs up a ladder to the Wind Fish and plays the [[Ballad of the Wind Fish]]. As a result, the Wind Fish wakes up, and Koholint Island and all of its inhabitants fade away. Link is somehow an exception to this, and wakes up holding onto the shipwreck as he happily watches the Wind Fish soar by. In the perfect ending, there is a seagull in the sky, implied to be Marin, who at one point said that her dream was to become a seagull and explore the rest of the world. | In the Wind Fish's Egg, Link has to fight the final boss, the [[Shadow]]s.
