McNey is a character that appears in Phantom Hourglass.[3]

Biography[]

McNey was an esteemed explorer who spent much of his lifetime trying to discover the legendary treasure held dearly by the Cobble Kingdom: the Aquanine. Much of his findings were left written in an article for the "Explorer's Compass".

Eventually, McNey ended up in the Isle of the Dead and stumbled upon the Phantom Corridor and prematurely entered it before solving the corridor's puzzle. As a result, he ended up wandering its halls until his death.[3] When Link arrives to the isle and makes his way to the Phantom Corridor, McNey advises him that, if he still has not solved the corridor's puzzle, he must find the entrance as soon as he can before he meets the same fate as the deceased explorer.[4]

And look what happened. This maze is madness... If you don't know which way to go, you'll end up walking in circles. Circles..." — McNey (Phantom Hourglass)
