After awakening in a ruined Hyrule seven years older, Link embarks on a quest to awaken the Six Sages. As he travels into Kokiri Forest to awaken the Sage of Forest, Link meets Sheik, a mysterious Sheikah whom he had encountered earlier, in the Temple of Time. With some words of wisdom, Sheik teaches Link the "Minuet of Forest", that Link may return to this area more easily in the future.

A minuet is the name given to a song written in 3/4 time, which in turn was named after a type of dance called a minuet, also danced in 3/4 time. Often a short piece of music, "Minuet of the Forest" may allude to the dwarfism of Kokiri.
