"I need you to find all the pieces of my broken pot," the house resident said.

"Okay I guess I can do that," Link answered skeptically, "but can't --"

"They are not just in here," continued the man, gesturing to the house. "They are everywhere. Scattered all over Hyrule. I need you to find every piece."

"What???"

"There are 35 pieces all over the country. I mean they could be anywhere. Bottom of a lake, in the Shining Shrine, buried in some tree. I'm talking anywhere on this planet. I need you to find them. Thank you!"

Before Link could answer he was hurriedly shoved out of the house. His new task was before him: recover all the pieces of Naambrrrea's broken pot. Only then could he find the map to the clue to the missing pillar that pointed the way to the lost temple which contained a map to the missing scientist who might know the location of the Ancient Wheel whose spokes lined up perfectly with the stars on ONE night out of the entire year if he stood in the perfect spot somewhere. That night was tomorrow. If he could find that Wheel before tomorrow, the Wheel when aligned with the stars would point the way to a weapon that just might help Link turn the tide in the war against Ganon.

"Remember now!! Thirty-five pieces!!!!!" hollered the man from his second-story window. "HURRY UP." He slammed the window shut and kicked over a small table.

Link started walking down the dirt road. He waved to an old man fixing up a wagon that was tucked away in an alley. "Ah hoy Link lad!" The man waved him over. "Help me pry this wheel off my wagon. If you can do that, I'll give it to you."

"Sure, why not." Link stepped off the road and helped the man pull the wheel off. Easy enough task. It was an old wheel. Very old. Ancient even. It was in fact the very Ancient Wheel. He found it.
