A/N: I'm on a real writing spree lately, so chapters will be pretty fast to go up. I'm finally out of the Ikana chapters and I am starting to get close to the end.
Disclaimer: I don't own Zelda. (Well, I do own Ocarina of Time and Oracle of Seasons, but you know what I mean.)

"Link?" Saria asked quietly.
"Yes Saria?"
"I was wondering, after this, where are you going?"
"Well, I don't know. I was thinking of staying in Hyrule, but I'm really not sure. But if I'm too long here the door will change and go to a different world. So if I stay here I'll never be able to go back."
"That's a pretty big decision," said Saria.
"Yeah, it is," Link replied.

I went back to Woodfall and knocked on Kotake's door. She answered.
"Link! Are you OK? You were pretty quick in the Stone Temple."
"Yeah, I'm fine. It was awful there though."
"Was it? That's the only place I've never been."
"Were you a traveller when you were younger?" I asked.
"Yes. I went everywhere except Ikana. I never got the chance to go there. A lot of people said that travelling was too dangerous for a young girl, but I ignored them. I was eventually hurt badly."
"How?" I asked. I was intrigued.
"A wolfos. Hit me from behind. Broke my leg."
"How did you survive?"
"I put red potion on it. I cannot walk on it though, for some reason it never healed correctly. But I still always carry red potion, it saved my life. It's a real help in dangerous situations. You should carry some too." Kotake took out two bottles. "The red one is a red potion, obviously. Heals anything broken or brusied, but it can't heal disease. Also good for people who have had all their energy knocked out of them, usually by magic. The tan one is your Goron potion." I gulped when I heard her say that, but didn't want to say anything.
"I know the Goron transformation will be a difficult one for you, but none of the Gorons will know who you are, if that helps." It was as though Kotake had read my mind.
"Yeah. Thanks Kotake. Goodbye."

I left the shop and carried the Goron potion over the water. Then I took it. It was horrible, nearly as bad as the Deku. It was like swallowing a mouthful of dust. I felt my body change and soon the transformation was complete. I was a Goron.

I knew more about Gorons that I did about the other species. I knew their folklore and legends and their customs. But I didn't know what it would be like to be a Goron. I felt strength flow through me like water. I lifted up a boulder with ease, throwing it twenty metres. I was quite slow, as my bulky body held me back. I soon realised that I could roll quickly instead of walking. I rolled across Termina Field and went into the Mountain Village.

It was empty, a grassy plain with a few patches of flowers. The house in which I once lived still stood, but had cobwebs hanging off it and a thin film of dust, suggesting that no-one had lived in it since I left. I followed the trail to the Goron Village, one well known to me.

The Goron Village looked the same as it had done when I left it. I pounded and entered the main area.

The elder was in there, talking to his wife. They appeared to be arguing, so I left them alone. I went over to another Goron.
"Do you know anything about a Temple?"
"No. Ask the elder. He knows!" the Goron said. I asked every Goron in the entire city except for the elder. They all told me to ask the elder or Darmani. I remembered Darmani only vaugely. He was the current Goron hero, a young Goron, very brave and strong. Apparently he had saved Goron city at least twice from various threats. I had only met him once, but I had liked him. He was very good with children. I decided that it would be rather difficult to find Darmani, however, he was always off on some sort of adventure.

So I went to find the elder. He was quite an old Goron, his beard and hair had gone white many years ago and was beginning to fall out. He was also in a terrible mood. Apparently his wife had decided to go on a holiday to Clock Town, but the elder was too old to go. He was upset that she was going without him.
"Excuse me."
"Who are you?"
"Link," I replied without thinking.
"Oh..." he said. "What do you want me for?"
"I was wondering if you knew anything about the Temple?"
"Yes. That's where Darmani is at the moment. The wolfos poulation is getting out of hand. He's sending a couple off to a collector in Clock Town."
"Oh. Well, I was wondering if I would be allowed to enter."
"Of course. I'll teach you the song." I got out my Ocarina and the elder played the song, which I copied.
"Nice instrument," said the elder.
"Thank you."

I left and went back to the Mountain Village. I then followed a road I had never been able to take before, as it was for Gorons only. When I reached the end, I saw the huge mountain that was Snowhead.

I had to follow more winding and difficult snowy roads, but after a while, I reached the Temple.

I entered it, noticing Darmani outside trying to coax a grumpy wolfos into a cage with a Rock Sirloin. I played the song and the warp appeared. Again, I visited the Giant, this time being the last. The warp dropped me in Clock Town.
