 Four instruments from Oracle of Seasons that summon spirits.

Strange Flute: The strange flute in Oracle of Seasons functions the same as it does in Oracle of Ages. At first, it does nothing, but it will eventually gain the power to summon Link’s animal companion, after he gains an animal companion of course. How Link obtains the flute determines which of the animal companions he will eventually bond with on his adventure through Holodrum. All strange flutes become available to find after Link explores through the Snake’s Remains dungeon.

Music can lure all sorts of different spirits to interfere with mortal affairs. A particularly annoying and unloved trickster spirit can be summoned to torment others by playing a special tune on the slide flute under a full moon. The spirit will run rampant through a community visiting vile pranks on all but the summoner until sent away by playing the same tune on the summoning flute.

Library Key: Link is given the library key by King Zora during the current era after he cures King Zora’s illness with a magical potion in the past era. King Zora is healthy again, but there is a corruption in the seas pushing Lord Jabu-Jabu to the brink of death. Knowing that Link is the sort of person that can get things done, King Zora asks him to go to the Eyeglass Island Library and research if there is any way to cleanse the oceans and save Lord Jabu-Jabu.

This is the last key item I drew as an item that would get you access to a place. I think this one is pretty obvious as library cards are the “key” to services at the library. If you don’t have a library card, go get one. Libraries are wonderful resources. Many offer services that include more than just checking out books and if you don’t know what your library has to offer you are probably missing out.

It is generally understood by xenoarchaeologists studying the ruins of Terra that humans valued knowledge highly, but maintained tight control over who had the privilege to study and learn. Massive collections of written records were kept in even the smallest settlements across many regions of Terra. Even with the ubiquity of these archives, only those who carried the token of privilege were allowed into these prestigious buildings containing the collected knowledge of humanity.

Dimitri’s Flute: Link unknowingly selects his animal companion in Oracle of Ages in how he acquires the strange flute. To eventually meet Dimitri and forge a bond with the dodongo, Link should buy the strange flute from the Lynna City Shop when it is available for purchase after completing the Moonlit Grotto. If Link buys the flute, he will eventually run into Dimitri in the lost woods and Dimitri will teach Link a tune to play when he needs help.

Dimitri is a red dodongo that can be ridden. When riding Dimitri, he can chomp enemies and foliage and swim like a raft. Link can also pick up and throw Dimitri with the help of the power bracelet.

Upon entering the spirit world, it is not uncommon for first-time travelers to be visited by a massive turtle spirit. These are avatars of the great turtle that is said to safely carry the world through the cosmos upon its back. The spirit teaches novice wanderers a melody to sing should they wish to return to the material plane. The great turtle's senses are not limitless, so travelers are warned to not wander too far, lest they become lost in the infinite realm of spirits.
