Talk:Four Sword
It seems that the Minish Cap Four Sword might be the original Master Sword, as it's pre-broken form looked like the blue Master Sword, and early boxart seemed to show it as a golden Master Sword. http://www.kasuto.net/image/minish_cap/minishcap.jpg
The Minish Cap Sword is also missing the eye of Vaati, and instead has a jewel. This might explain why it functions differently - it was cursed by absorbing Vaati, and the blade of evil's bane (remember, TMC Four Sword had evil-bane power that was not seen in later FS games) part would have seperated, as it could not be combined with evil. http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B00030GS80.01._PE12_.The-Legend-of-Zelda-Minish-Cap._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg
I disagree- that sword may, in fact, be the original Picori Blade. As seen in this piece of official art from The Minish Cap- which, incidentally, is being used for both the Black Knight and Dark Hyrule Castle articles, the Four Sword actually has that trademark Vaati-esque eye mark on the hilt: http://zeldawiki.org/images/3/3a/Darkhyrulecastle.jpg
Interesting, isn't it? We have two conflicting sources- the boxart and the official art from events taking place in the game itself. And also, the FSA Four Sword DID have the power to repel evil- however, it had been depowered through some source, necessitating the Force Gem collection angle to restore it.Dinosaur bob 22:03, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
