[edit] Improve

This page is pretty short, and a lot more info and detail should be added to it. I'm more than happy to help, but it's going to take a lot of work. Let's try to make a good article out of this one! —Alter 02:58, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Kokiri outside of the Forest?

Wodo, Sage of Mediocrity, and I have more speculations about Kokiri outside of the Kokiri Forest. As the article notes, since Kokiri are shown in the ending credits, it is possible for them to leave the Kokiri Forest for a period of time. However, if they stay out long enough, two things may potentially happen:
      1. Like a Zora kept away from water for too long, they die. While death is not immediate, Kokiri cannot survive for months away from the Great Deku Tree.
      2. Like the Lost Boys removed from Neverland, they will eventually grow up. Kokiri could actually be Hylian children who retain their youthful forms due to proximity to the Great Deku Tree and to their guardian fairies. The thought that they will die could be a rumor along the same lines as "don't make that expression, or your face will stick"--propagated to keep the Kokiri from leaving the forest (perhaps even started by the Kokiri themselves at some point in the past) but ultimately untrue. Or, the concept of "growing up" may have been so foreign and scary to the Kokiri that it seems like death, and the original message got warped. The fact that Link never received a fairy points to his destiny to eventually leave the Kokiri Forest and grow up. Either of these sound valid? -Bodo, Sage of Obsession 15:20, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
