- Chapter 2: Sorceress of Shadows: Veran
Impa leads Link into a forest and asks him to move a stone marked with the symbol of the Triforce because she is unable to do so. Here, the two find Nayru, the Oracle of Ages, singing to a group of forest animals. After a short conversation between Link and Nayru, Impa reveals that she is possessed by Veran.

Link is attacked by his ancestor, Raven, [3]and taken to the dungeon for " deserting" the construction of the tower. Link soon escapes and spies on Veran, who is possessing Nayru's body, informing the queen of the impact the Black Tower will have on Queen Ambi's fame.
