Man in Tavern
Template:Character The {{{2}}} is a character who appears in A Link to the Past. As his name suggests, he is the father of the Flute Boy who makes an apparition in the Haunted Grove. He can be found inside the Kakariko Village Tavern and is usually seen sleeping. During the game, he is concerned about the well-being of his son and is awaiting his return. He tells Link that his son went to search for the Golden Power but never returned.[1]
After Link finds his son's flute and plays it for the old man, the man understands what has happened to his son and asks Link to keep it.[2] He also tells the young hero to play the Flute in front of the Weathercock in the center of Kakariko Village. When Link proceeds to comply with his request, the Flute Boy's pet bird breaks out of the Weathercock and flies off.
During the game's ending, after Link reverses Ganon's evil wishes, the Flute Boy is shown back in his normal form, reunited with his father and playing again for the forest creatures in the Haunted Grove.
