King Gustaf

Gustaf was an ancient king of Hyrule and a member of the Royal Family of Hyrule countless ages ago and the earliest known Hylian king in the history of Hyrule, ruling at some point in the early days of Kingdom of Hyrule's Force Era. He was very fond of the Wind Tribe, and even ages after his passing, he seeks to keep the peace of the kingdom of Hyrule secure from beyond the grave. Many ages after his death, he appears to Link as a ghostly figure after Link retrieves the Water Element from the Temple of Droplets at Lake Hylia. He tells Link his identity as an ancient king and instructs the hero to stand before him, indicating that Link must enter the Royal Crypt where he rests. When Link reaches Gustaf's tomb in the Royal Crypt, Gustaf gives him a gold Kinstone Piece and instructs him to use it at the Source of the Flow in order to proceed beyond the stone door at Veil Falls. This allows Link to reach the Cloud Tops where the Wind Tribe resides, allowing him to find the Wind Element that they protect.
