''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]'' prominently features an individual simply known as "Skull Kid." He is implied to have met [[Link (Ocarina of Time)|Link]] during his quest in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the very same Skull Kid who had requested a performance of [[Saria's Song]] from him. The Skull Kid steals [[Majora's Mask]] from the [[Happy Mask Salesman]] and is promptly corrupted by its power. Some time after, he ambushes Link in the [[Lost Woods]] with his fairy friends, [[Tatl]] and [[Tael]], intending to steal his things. Link pursues him and soon finds himself in [[Termina]]. | |||
The | The Skull Kid begins to act very erratically once Link meets him again in Termina, atop the [[Clock Tower]]. He treats Tatl and Tael very harshly, estranging the both of them, and resulting in Tatl officially joining forces with Link. Traveling around Termina, it is apparent that the Skull Kid is the causation of many of the land's troubles. Various characters make mention of the Skull Kid's mischief, and it is through him that Majora's Mask provokes the [[Moon]]'s swift oncoming toward Termina. After Link dispatches the evil within Termina's four temples, he confronts the Skull Kid again and plays [[Oath to Order]], summoning the [[Four Giants]] whom prevent the Moon's collision with the land. Majora's Mask then separates from Skull Kid, who reverts back to his normal disposition. | ||
