Your Goron point is normally valid, but seeing as they deliberately introduced the other three as races themselves and didn't for Sarubo, Sarubo would be an individual name. While "Eldin" would be logical, I wouldn't put it past them to name it something else. |

| − | This dungeon is also one of the few dungeons in ''Link's Awakening'' that contains an optional [[Secret Seashell]]. The seashell is in a secret room behind a cracked wall, requiring the use of [[bomb]]s purchased from the village shop. As the introductory dungeon, the Tail Cave introduces a new feature to the [[Compass]], which alerts Link to keys hidden in a room. Another new feature is the [[Stone Beak]]s and respective [[Owl Statue]]s providing hints to nearby challenges. |

||
| − | The entrance to the dungeon is located [[South of the Village|south]] of [[Mabe Village]] and north of [[Toronbo Shores]]. Link learns that in order to enter the Tail Cave, he needs a special key to fit into a keyhole in the central Moldorm statue in front of the cave. The [[Owl (Link's Awakening)|owl]] reveals that the key rests within the [[Mysterious Woods]], just north of [[Mabe Village]].<ref name = Owl/> Going forward into the forest, Link discovers that although the key appears to be in a chest that is in plain sight, the path to the chest leads through a grove containing a strange raccoon, who casts a magic curse upon the grove that will not let anyone go forward from it, causing him to laugh and jeer at Link when he attempts to reach the chest. Seeing that he would have to deal with the raccoon before he could get the key from the chest, Link acquired some [[Magic Powder]] and sprinkled some onto the raccoon, causing him to spin wildly all around the grove before transforming into [[Tarin]], the father of Link's rescuer, [[Marin]]. With this, the curse on the grove is lifted, allowing Link to reach the chest and obtain the [[Tail Key]]. |

||
| − | Taking the key back to the entrance of the cavern, Link fits it into the keyhole in the central Moldorm statue, causing the iron bars blocking the cave's entrance to rise up, allowing entry into it at last. Link enters the cave in search of the first of the fabled instruments the owl had spoken of. Deep within the cave, Link comes across the being known as the [[Rolling Bones]], a small imp-like creature that attacks by rolling a spiked roller that spanned the length of the chamber, hoping to crush Link to death. Utilizing the [[Roc's Feather]] he had found in another part of the cave, Link is able to jump over the roller and attack Rolling Bones by hitting a small orb atop its head with his sword. With the defeat of Rolling Bones, Link opens the way to the cavern's true boss and guardian of the instrument, the giant [[Moldorm (Boss)|Moldorm]].<ref>{{Cite|BUZZZZZ! BUZZZZ!

| − | Using the Roc's Feather to dodge the beast's attacks, Link strikes the back part of the creature's tail several times, each time causing the beast to increase its pace. Ultimately however, Link triumphs over the beast, and it disintegrates into nothingness, opening the way to the cave's final chamber. Inside, Link finds the [[Full Moon Cello]], completing the first step in his quest to wake the Wind Fish. |
||
| − | |||
| − | The dungeon appears to be carved into a cavern of pink-colored stone with a floor made up of blue and grey stone. When looked at on a map, the dungeon is in the shape of a Moldorm, which seems to be a recurring theme of the dungeon, judging by the boss, the statues outside, and the Mini-Moldorms that appear in a few of the cave's chambers. The name of the dungeon, "Tail Cave", is likely a play off of the shape of the dungeon as well as its multiple references to the Moldorm, which may in turn also be a reference to the tail being the most notable trait of a Moldorm. It could also be a reference that the room containing the Full Moon Cello is located at the tip of the dungeon's "tail". |

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.

- It does resemble the creature on the far left of Hylia, just compare the shapes bearing in mind that the depiction is stylised. This little guy could be more of a sage for all we know. I mean, if it is a robot, then spirit might not be an accurate description anyway. Plus, "a flying robot equipped with two arms, Sarubo" doesn't need to refer to a name rather than a species; it could be either, the grammar is fine either way. 'A large creature with rock-like skin, Goron' would work in a similar way. I'm not saying that it definitely isn't called 'Sarubo', but 'Eldin' seems logical given that the Faron province equivalent is a creature who is called Faron. Either way, we should wait until we know the English name. Fyrisvellir 10:23, 23 October 2011 (EDT)
