Using a self-modified LoZ tileset, this is the first quest I have attempted. It was initially started on 2.10 back in 2009, but certain bugs kept it from release until they were resolved with the release of 2.50.

--Standard overworld with complex paths, conspicuous obstacles, and hidden surprises.
--Ten total dungeons, including a bonus dungeon.
--Improved versions of existing enemies with a few new enemies.
--Expansive inventory with some altered items
--Exploration greatly encouraged, with some flexibility thrown in to encourage sequence breaking.

Update History:
1.0: Initial release
1.1: Various enemy adjustments and bug fixes
1.2: Additional fixes and adjustments
2.0: Graphical improvements, additional items, and other fixes

...You awaken, unaware of what had happened. The last thing you remember was sailing the open seas while honing your skills. Now, you find yourself on the edge of a beach, the waves pounding ceaslessly. You wonder, "How did I end up here? I don't recall anything that could've led me here in such a fashion..."

You examine the shield found nearby, but instead of what you've normally seen, you find...naught but a yellow circle. Thoughts immediately flood your mind: "DId someone put that there? What else could they have done? HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN LYING HERE?!"

As you slowly regain strength, you begin to survey your surroundings. Looking in the distance, two harrowing peaks catch your eye. On the left, a rustic rock, surrounded by lush vegetation; on the right, ebon stone that seemed unnatural, with widespread decay its only company. "What in the world could render such stark contrast so close to each other?," you ponder...

Finally, you look directly in front of you. A small cavern, surrounded by rock, overlooks the shoreline. Perhaps anyone that could be there might be willing to lend any sort of assistance, anything that could help you on your way?

Desperate for answers, you take a step forward...a step that could drastically alter the course of fate...

--This quest rewards exploration and discovery. Many interiors that could aid you are initially hidden from view. Whatever equipment you find that could reveal them should be used. If an area seems suspicious, it should be examined whenever possible.

--Because of the branching, winding nature of the overworld, warping around can prove highly convenient. The whistle can be used to warp to the entrances of whatever levels you have cleared so far.

--Take note of whatever clues you find as you progress. Even the most vague clue will become clear with continued exploration.

A special thanks to all the fine arrangers and mixers at VGMusic for the tracks used on this quest.
