Lore & Background
Masks play a central role in Majora's Mask, with 24 total. The three primary masks transform Link into specific creatures: Deku Link can fly and skip on water; Goron Link can roll at high speeds and walk in lava; Zora Link can swim faster and generate an electric force field. Other masks like the Stone Mask render Link invisible, while the Postman's Hat grants access to mailboxes.
In Their Own Story
The source outlines the plot where Link arrives in Termina months after Ocarina of Time, cursed into a Deku Scrub by Skull Kid. Guided by Tatl, he meets the Happy Mask Salesman and learns to prevent a moon from crashing in three days. Link travels to four regions—Woodfall, Snowhead, Great Bay, and Ikana Canyon—to awaken the Four Giants. The narrative focuses on retrieving Majora's Mask and solving character-specific sidequests using the Bombers' Notebook. The text does not include any story events involving a Fierce Deity or its transformation.
Reader's Guide

It notes that Owl statues allow temporary saves and warping via the Song of Soaring.
