Link awakens deep within the temple of light. Seven years have passed and Hyrule has really changed. Rauru, the Sage of Light, explains what has happened in the last seven years and he tells Link to look at himself. You've grown up! You must collect six medallions to save Hyrule. Rauru gives you the Medallion of Light to begin your quest. You are transported back to the Temple of Time and as you are leaving, you draw your sword and turn around to see Shiek. Shiek is hauntingly familiar and introduces himself as one of the last remaining Sheikahs, the same race which Impa was from. Shiek tells you that you must go to the Forest Temple but equipped as you are, you cannot even enter the temple. Go to Kakariko Village as he tells you to.
