The Shield Spell is a spell learned in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. Often considered to be the easiest to find of all the spells, it cuts damage dealt to Link in half. The Shield Spell lasts for one screen per casting, and is one of the least expensive spells to perform in terms of Link's Magic Meter. Link learns this spell from an Old Man in Rauru Town, after he speaks with the man's daughter and she invites him inside her home.
