"At times and places, you will hear powerful secrets. At those times, come see me. I can give shape and form to your secrets!"

— Farore

Farore (フロル, Furoru^?), also known as the Oracle of Secrets, is a recurring character in the Legend of Zelda series. She is named after Farore, the Goddess of Courage, who is one of the three creators of Hyrule.

Appearances

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons

In both Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons, Farore resides in the Hall of Secrets, inside the Maku Tree. She gives form to the secrets that Link learns in a Linked Game by keeping all of Link's obtained secrets in a journal entitled Farore's Memory.

Farore was originally supposed to be the major character of a third Oracle game; The Legend of Zelda: Mystical Seed of Courage. However, the game proved too difficult to develop with the other two games, and was eventually cancelled. She did, however have a minor role in both to activate secrets. It is widely agreed by fans that only being able to move two of the Oracles into houses in The Minish Cap is a reference to this.

The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap

Farore appears as together with Nayru and Din in the Happy Hearth Inn in Hyrule Town. She wishes to live in a house in town. Link can help her find one by notifying her of Gorman's new rental home. After Link finds a house for her, Farore will give Farore's Charm to Link, provided that Link has an empty bottle.

At one point in the game, Link can also fuse a Kinstone with Farore, release a Joy Butterfly in Castor Wilds. When caught, this butterfly will increase the speed Link digs when using the Mole Mitts.
