I believe Aonuma confirmed at E3 that Link is once again an orphan in this game...

Supposedly, Speilberg has a thing about fathers in his movies...maybe Miyamoto has a thing against mothers?

All the mothers die during childbirth.
I can definitely see that with Ruto. Her head is huge.

I think Link being an orphan says a whole lot, very interesting detail and one I like a lot.

Do Rutos lay eggs or what?

Ummmm, Zoras?

mantidor · « **Reply #2009 on:** February 08, 2006, 06:01:31 AM »

haha, rutos...

and acording to Majora's mask, yes, they lay eggs.

Oh, and also, its explicitly said that Tetra's mom died in the Wind Waker. Indeed, orphans are everywhere for Zelda games.

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #2010 on:** February 08, 2006, 09:16:36 AM »

Actually, that was a typo, I meant to say "Rito," the race of bird-peeps on Dragon Roost. Of course, if they're descendants of the Zoras, then I guess they do lay eggs.

Wait, what?

Did I miss something?

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #2012 on:** February 09, 2006, 07:29:22 AM »

It's suggested in Wind Waker that the Ritos are descended from the Zoras. I'm still not quite sure I believe it, because it seems a stretch (Zoras are always fish-men, Ritos become birds), but since the old sage is a Zora and the new one a Rito, they certainly hint at it.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #2013 on:** February 09, 2006, 07:33:53 AM »

I'm pretty sure they outright stated that Medli was a direct descendant of Laruto's...

TMW · « **Reply #2014 on:** February 09, 2006, 08:21:43 AM »

I don't think Sages are indicative of race, man.

And...yeah. I don't remember that part. The suggestion, I mean.

couchmonkey · « **Reply #2015 on:** February 10, 2006, 10:31:54 AM »

Why did the Zoras, the one race that would have no trouble surviving in a world flooded by oceans, have to evolve? Huh?

Just one of those stupid questions that bugs me. I'm excited to see what races make it into Twighlight Princess. I hope there's something new in there. The...uh, I forget there names, the leaf people that descended from the Kokiri children were awesome. They really freaked me out the first time I saw them.

KnowsNothing · « **Reply #2016 on:** February 10, 2006, 11:58:15 AM »

I didn't really like the Koroks, especially compared to the awesome Ritos. Also, I always figured that the Zoras had to go on land because the sea was becoming too dangerous, what with the sharks and 50 foot octopi and such.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #2017 on:** February 10, 2006, 01:49:32 PM »

I loved the Koroks, especially the sound they made. I'd have to say I liked the Koroks and Ritos equally.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #2018 on:** February 10, 2006, 02:20:38 PM »

The main problem with the Koroks is that all the cute Kokiri disappeared! ;_;

mantidor · « **Reply #2019 on:** February 10, 2006, 02:42:46 PM »

Cuteness is overrated, koroks rock because they are Nintendo's version of kodamas from Princess Mononoke.

TMW · « **Reply #2020 on:** February 11, 2006, 11:58:05 AM »

Alright, erm...I must have forgotten, but where in the game does it say that the Ritos evolved from the Zoras?

mantidor · « **Reply #2021 on:** February 11, 2006, 03:06:04 PM »

calle me crazy, but I think it can be deduced from this and this.

TMW · « **Reply #2022 on:** February 11, 2006, 03:21:27 PM »

Whose to say that Hylians and Zoras never intermarried occasionally, eh? Ruto didn't seem to have much a problem betrothing herself to Link. XD

Really, its a pretty far cry that a race of Fish People would naturally evolve roughly homo sapien forms, and THEN find a way to take to the air.

I mean, 1000 years is hardly enough time for such a radical change in physiology.

mantidor · « **Reply #2023 on:** February 11, 2006, 03:47:58 PM »

Do we really need to explain what the word "bloodline" means? Its clear as water, zoras evolved into Ritos, wether it was through inter racial marriages or not. Besides, who is to say that evolution works the same way in a fictional world?

I want to play The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
