The Lone Young Boy is a character mentioned in the prologue of The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords and the prologue of The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures. Vaati, the Wind Sorcerer was terrorizing Hyrule, kidnapping young maidens and felling anyone who challenged him, until the Lone Young Boy appeared wielding the Four Sword. Using the Four Sword to split himself into four, he defeated Vaati and sealed the Wind Sorcerer inside the blade. The young women explained what had happened but the people did not believe one so young could succeed when so many brave knights failed. Nevertheless they enshrined the Four Sword and protected it for generations. The Lone Young Boy disappeared and was never heard from again.
