An almost fun dungeon!

Almost...

"Dear Zelda,

Turtle Rock was surprisingly navigable. There's one floor, and everything mostly flows together. The fun gimmick of this place is the controllable un-vacuum that makes floors! It lets you form paths across various holes and gooey floors. I had to create entire rooms a few times for keys. The leas fun gimmick is I had to fight mini bosses I've already felled. That stupid dolphin who plays catch is back and was just as awful. Because I got lost, I had to kill him a few times. Each battle sucked.

One of the reasons I got lost was the ice. Remember the magic rods in Hyrule? One of them was in Hokolint. I melted various ice blocks in the dungeon and set fire to the blazers.

At the end was a giant drop of sentient lava. I kept attacking it with the Magic Rod until it died. It might have killed me, but my secret fairy saved me. I'm not sure; I kinda just went into a trance while contemplating what's to come. The Hot Head seemed to believe that I was a part of this dream as well. I'm real. Right? Marin feels just as real as you or I. The final instrument is the Thunder Drum.

I visited Mabe Village once more, but I didn't have the heart to say farewell or tell them the truth. Marin seems to have a hunch, though. At last, I climbed the mountain path to the Wind Fish's Egg and played all eight Siren Instruments. I don't know how, but I did. The owl visited me and told me the end of this journey is near. The egg cracked, and I'm camping inside tonight. I'll leave this island tomorrow.

Zelda, I still don't know if this is right. What's real? What's fake? What am I?

- Link"
