- This article is about deliveries made by Link. For deliveries by the Postman, see Mail Delivery.
Template:Mechanic Delivery is a recurring gameplay mechanic in The Legend of Zelda series.[1][2][3][4] It is a type of event where Link is asked to transport (or protect the transportation of) an item or object from one specific location to another.[note 1] The term can also to refer to the item or object being delivered.
Overview
Most deliveries are Inventory items, such as Letters, that can be delivered at Link's convenience. Others, particularly objects, are physically carried to their destination. Link may need to protect the delivery from enemies or the environment. Or, there may be a Time constraint on the delivery. In either case, there is a risk that Link will fail the delivery and have to start over.

Notes
- ↑ Though all Trading Quest items are transported from one location to another, few trading characters say where specifically to get the item they want, or where to send the one they have to trade.
