Mega Ice is used on many occasions, yet only once in a plot-required event - Link must transport the powerful ice from the Wellspring Station to the [[Goron Village (Spirit Tracks)|Goron Village]] so that the Gorons can reaccess sections of the village that had been quarantined off due to the virulent volcanic eruptions and fire geysers that had sprung up as a product of such magma outbursts in the area. The Mega Ice, as long as it is transported inside of the [[Snow Realm]], will not melt, however, once Link ventures out into the [[Fire Realm|Fire]], [[Forest Realm|Forest]], or [[Ocean Realm]]s, the 20 pieces of Mega Ice will begin to dwindle as a product of the increased light-intensity and higher temperatures in these other regions.<ref>{{cite|The ice is fine until ya get to warmer areas.

Since some of the Mega Ice-related sidequests require transporting the ice over long distances, the use of [[Warping|Warp Gates]] on the [[Spirit Tracks (Rails)|Spirit Tracks]] is highly advised in order to make it to the destination with the required amount of Mega Ice.

Revision as of 12:39, 14 May 2016
Sarubo
The official Japanese site calls it Template:Korean. I'm guessing Wolfger assumed it was named after the province/mountain, like Faron, but I suggest we move it to Sarubo for now. - TonyT S C 22:03, 22 October 2011 (EDT)
- Are you sure that's not the name of its race? Because it appears alongside Hylia in the opening with four other races, which leads me to believe that this little guy is one of many. Fyrisvellir 08:31, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
- That's an interesting theory, but here's why I don't think so:
- 1) To me, the as-of-yet unrevealed race on the far left of Her Grace doesn't resemble the little creature on this page very much, apart from the small stature and its face.
- 2) Given that it's a spirit, I highly doubt there would be a race of it running around.
- 3) Based on 2 translations done by myself and another Japanese speaker, the first line of text reads "A flying robot equipped with two arms, Sarubo". If correct, this indicates that it wouldn't be a race by normal means, and that "Sarubo" is indeed its name.
- I haven't studied the text all that much, but from what I can tell, the site goes on to say that you have to help navigate Sarubo around. So it doesn't seem to introduce it as a species (as it did with the Parella), but more of a person. I've extracted the Japanese text, in case someone else wants to have a crack at translating it.
