That's when I realized that there are things about Igos du Ikana in the game that I should have noticed or seen much sooner. What does my fanfiction series have to do with evidence that Igos du Ikana was an Ancient One? I was working on part 2 of my fanfiction series and I was writing a scene where the Happy Mask Salesman tell Link his story and the story of his people when I put the pieces back together and everything became even more clear. I love this fan art of a fatherly Happy Mask Salesman:Īnd this fan art is great too (though I wish people would stop calling the HMS "creepy", he is NOT): That fanfiction series will be called "The last of the Ancient Ones".Īnd in my fanfiction series, the Happy Mask Salesman (that I named Masao) will be a dad to Link and to another orphan boy named Shaw. I have already posted part 1 and I'm currently working on part 2 which I'm almost done writing. I am currently working on a fanfiction series in three parts, three one-shots. But I started this new thread to provide more evidence that King Igos du Ikana was an Ancient One, an undead Ancient One who was one of their leaders or rulers, and that he had something to do with the Stone Tower Temple that was built to worship Demise. You can go back and read my post in that other thread. I also talked about the leaders of the Ancient Ones' empire and their association with Demise and the forces of evil and how it led to their people suffering for the stupid decisions of their leaders (they basically had no say in siding with Demise as their leaders forced them to, they had no say in the empire or their genocide for that matter), their people being wiped out (with the Happy Mask Salesman being the only survivor) and the land being cursed. My other thread also talk about Igos du Ikana and I provided some evidence that he was an undead Ancient One. Igos du Ikana was not among the living, he was one of the undead and basically like stalfos. To be more specific, the Happy Mask Salesman is the only Ancient One left who is still among the living. I made a thread four months ago entitled "The Last Ancient One", where I provided evidence that the Happy Mask Salesman is an Ancient One and the last of his kind. If he wears this mask when he confronts Igos, the startled undead king briefly mistakes him for the head of his army, but quickly sees through the disguise.Igos Du Ikana was an Ancient One, the last king of the Ancient Ones and the last resident of the Ancient Castle of Ikana Elsewhere in the quest, Link can obtain a mask made in the image of Captain Keeta, who was in life the leader of the army of Ikana, which he uses to give orders to the undead soldiers (Stalchildren) still wandering the land of Ikana.Apart from reforming unless permanently destroyed with light, King Igos and his men fight almost exactly like the Stalfos warriors from Ocarina of Time, which is likely not a coincidence, given their skeletal nature.As thanks to Link for freeing him from his eternal suffering, King Igos teaches the young hero the ocarina song known as the Elegy of Emptiness, which would be vital in the hero's attempts to conquer Stone Tower Temple, which would be the only way to truly return light to the dark land of Ikana. Breaking the spell on King Igos reunites the cold and distant spirit with his human emotions, which he had lost after centuries of bitterness. By smashing their bodies to pieces and then reflecting sunlight from the throne room's windows onto their skulls, Link can break the spell holding the swordsmen on this plane of existence and finally allow them to pass on. The only way Link can really defeat them is to break the curse of darkness, which he naturally does with light. The dark curse is still intact all these years later, so that even if a warrior did manage to strike down Igos or either of his servants, their skeletons merely move back into proper position and begin the battle anew. Igos du Ikana, and his two bodyguards, formerly the best swordsmen in Ikana, serve as the boss fight for the Ancient Castle of Ikana in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. It is also known that its last leader was King Igos du Ikana, who still sits upon his throne in the Ancient Castle of Ikana, ruling over what is left of his people. As a result, the spirits of its people still wander the halls of the many ruins that dot Ikana Canyon, trapped forever, rendering it the most haunted place in Termina. Not much is known about the Ikana Kingdom of Termina, just that all of its people are long dead, and that when the kingdom was defeated, their enemy cast a spell of darkness upon them, so that they would be unable to pass to the next life.
