Magic Spells

Link can learn a total of 8 spells in the game. While the first spell (Shield) is pretty much a freebie, you'll have to work for the other 7. Here I'll tell you how to get each spell, what it does, and the Magic Point requirement for each spell. First, here are the requisites:

SHIELD: Find the house in Rauru that offers it. That's all.

JUMP: Find the Trophy in the cave north of the starting point. Take it to Ruto for the spell.

LIFE: In the third "open" house of Saria, check under the table. You should be saying "I found a mirror." Take it to a woman who, alas, lost her mirror. She'll let you in her house for the spell.

FAIRY: Get the medicine in the swamp cave (The one blocked by a boulder) and take it to Mido Town. The spell will be yours.

FIRE: In Nabooru, you'll meet a woman who is thirsty. Not too far away from her is a fountain. "Talk" to the fountain and go back to the woman, and she'll let you in for the Fire Spell (Ironic how giving someone water gets you fire!)

REFLECT: Save the child from the cave in Maze Island. Go to Darunia, and you'll be rewarded from your heroic efforts with the spell.

SPELL: In hidden Kasuto Town, Find an empty yet large home with a fireplace. Press up at the niche, and you'll go into the room where you find the Spell.

THUNDER: Go to the other, not-so-hidden town of Kasuto. Enter the first house and get the Thunder Spell. (After that, just leave. There's nothing else of interest there.)
