Young Link in the OOT Remake
Home / Characters / Young Link
Young Link is the child you start as in Kokiri Forest. The errand is the three Spiritual Stones. Kokiri Sword, Deku Shield, and Fairy Slingshot are the kit I will name. Hyrule Field is the road between the forest and the castle. He is the same Hero of Time as the adult, seven years earlier, and he is not a Sage.
CBR describes a new child model under the same puppet-style direction. Zelda Wiki does not add a new child dungeon. The Japanese credit I can cite is Serika Hiromatsu, and the English performance is still silence. I refuse to copy an English actor from a different game onto this silence.
Saria and Mido live in the same forest and do not have detail pages in this first set. The next useful page is Adult Link, because the Master Sword is the door between the two. A running speed, a jump height, or a 2026-only child item is not documented in the sources here.
