Quick notes

  • Separate companions from the rescue objective. Ciela accompanies Link on land, while Linebeck enables sea travel.
  • Use island conversations. Residents often connect the next destination to a local obstacle.
  • Watch Linebeck’s role evolve. His reluctance and interest in treasure are part of the story.
  • Keep late revelations for the story. This roster describes the opening roles.

Useful tip

His reluctance and interest in treasure are part of the story. The ship still acts as the hub for reaching islands and responding to sea hazards.
