2.10

ReturnToDarkWorld.zip

I started making this quest when I first started working with ZC a year and a half ago. I modeled the idea of this quest after A Link to the Past. This quest is a very long quest. It has 9+ full levels (some of them with multiple floors or maps), several mini-dungeons, and a full overworld map (half is the Dark World, half the Light World). It uses many of the newer items used in Zelda Classic and should be played using version 2.10.

Updates:
6/28/2006: Fixed an almost game ending but that allowed player to warp to Dark World too early.
3/8/2007: Fixed a whistle bug for a secret that was moved to disabled.
6/3/2007: Disabled Temporary Clocks rule for use on ZC 2.5 builds.  ZC 2.10 users won't notice a difference.

Princess Zelda knew that she didn't have much time until evil returned to the land of Hyrule. She decided to head out to a remote island, far from Hyrule, where she could safely hide the Triforce of Wisdom from the clutches of evil. She told no one of her plans except for her noble aid, Impa. As Zelda was trying to hide the last four pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom on the island, she was captured by a renegade group of Moblins in the forest. The Moblin tribe was attempting to create an entrance to the Dark World so they could once again be together with their master, Ganon. The Moblins were successful and were able to open a path to the Dark World and turned Zelda over to Ganon. Ganon knew that it wouldn't be long before Link learned of Zelda's fate, so he scattered the other four pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom throughout the Dark World. Ganon then commanded the rest of his minions find the pieces of the Triforce of Wisdom Zelda hid so that he could claim them as his own. Back in Hyrule, there was much concern when the princess was reported as missing for a long period of time. Impa then decided to seek help with Link, the Hero of Time. When Link learned of Zelda's capture, he immediately set out to rescue her from Ganon's clutches. On the way to the island, his ship was damaged in a storm and he lost all his possessions, becoming shipwrecked on the island. Starting his adventure without even having his trusty sword at his side, Link must find a way to navigate this new island to find the princess and rescue her from Ganon.
