Farewell to Gibdos: Difference between revisions

'''Farewell to Gibdos''' is a song in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. Unlike the other songs in the game, [[Link]] cannot access its powers by playing it on the [[Ocarina of Time]]; instead, it is heard from the [[Music Box House]] in [[Ikana Canyon]]. It scares away [[Gibdo]]s.{{Ref|MM|3308|Pamela's Father}}

When Link first enters the canyon, the Music Box House is surrounded by Gibdos. If Link tries to open the door, [[Pamela]] thinks he is a Gibdo and refuses to let him in.{{Ref|MM|3634|Pamela}} After learning the [[Song of Storms]] from [[Flat]] in the [[Ikana Graveyard]], Link can head to the [[Spring Water Cave]] at the top of the canyon and meet [[Sharp]]. When plays the Song of Storms for him, Sharp remembers his brother and frees the spring from the curse.{{Ref|MM|3153|Sharp}}{{Ref|MM|3154|Sharp}}{{Ref|MM|3155|Sharp}} When the water begins flowing again, the waterwheel on the Music Box House turns, and Farewell to Gibdos starts to play. The Gibdos surrounding the house sink into the ground as a result of the curse.

Sharp thanks Link and asks him to visit the [[Igos du Ikana|king]] and the [[Stone Tower Temple]].{{Ref|MM|3157|Sharp}}{{Ref|MM|3161|Sharp}}{{Ref|MM|3163|Sharp}}

A [[Garo]] tells Link that Pamela leaves her house every two minutes, but only after the Gibdos are gone.{{Ref|MM|2991|Garo}} When Link heads down to the Music Box House after his confrontation with Sharp, he will find Pamela out. If she sees him, she runs back inside. Link can use the [[Stone Mask]] to walk in undetected or the [[Blast Mask]] or [[Bomb]] to catch her attention and sneak past her. Inside, Link finds [[Pamela's Father]], who was cursed into the form of a Gibdo. Link saves him by playing the [[Song of Healing]].

Pamela's father later describes Farewell to Gibdos to Link. He claims that he discovered the song as a result of his research of the creatures.{{Ref|MM|3309|Pamela's Father}}
