* You're not told this at first, but in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening|The Legend of Zelda Links Awakening]]'', {{spoiler|your ultimate objective is to ''trigger'' one of these. The entire world is, in fact, the [[Space Whale|Wind Fish]]'s dream.}} Adding insult to injury is that the people of the island are completely oblivious to this truth, but the villainous Nightmares aren't, {{spoiler|and they are, in fact, trying to save the world they took over}}. But when the Dream Apocalypse happens, {{spoiler|there are two who leave the dream world with you,: the Wind Fish, and (if you get a [[No Casualties Run|No Miss Clear]]) potential love interest Marin, who gets her wish of flying to far-off lands and singing... as a seagull.}}
** The manga version develops this angle a bit more, with Link fully realizing what will happen and actually abandoning his quest when he learns about the dream world, only for Marin (who doesn't know the truth but had her own issues with dreams) and the [[Exposition Fairy|Ninja Butterflies]] (who do know) to encourage him to get back on track.
* Subverted in ''[[Eternal Sonata]]''. Chopin is dying, and enters the game world on his deathbed. Throughout the game, he insists that the entire world is his dream. At the end, in order to prove it's his dream and not reality, he {{spoiler|decides to kill the entire party}}. It doesn't work.
