History: TearJerker / TheLegendOfZeldaPhantomHourglass

* The final battle. It looks like Link and Tetra are about to get all of their life-force sucked out of them by Bellum for good, but suddenly, Linebeck, of all people, starts to fight the monster off. This must be the hugest character development in a Zelda game EVER! (Not even Midna accomplished to change her ways ''that'' much). After all you've gone through so much alongside this JerkWithAHeartOfGold, he's finally proven that he's more than just a selfish idiot... and suddenly, Bellum comes up, possesses him and transforms him into a monster himself. Your only choice is to fight him, right after he got his CrowningMomentOfAwesome. Even made worse by the fact that he weakly calls out to Link, just before the transformation is done.
** It's even better in the (little known) manga, where he almost ''commits suicide'' to stop Bellum, and it takes a time sphere to stop him!
* When Link finds Tetra [[spoiler: turned to stone]], his expression is heartbreaking.
* Hell, in this game just ''dying'' results in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ThXvLA4IcfU the single most heart-wrenching six notes in the history of gaming.]]
