One of the Legend of Zelda's longest standing questions is where Link stores all of his items on his travels - either his tunic has some seriously deep pockets or we have to accept it's just magic and get on with it.

Whilst we may never know where the Biggoron's Sword goes when it's not in use, we do know that Link can store just about anything in one of his trusty glass bottles from the mundane, typical bottle contents such as soup, potions and water right the way up to fairies, poes, fish and a fully grown Deku Princess...

Happily, no one ever seems to question how Link can store such a variety of things in bottles and the humble vessels have written themselves into Zelda lore as essential equipment for the Hylian knight who has it all - they can even be used to deflect evil magic if you're feeling a little bit blasé about the final battles. Very, very cool.
