In A Link to the Past, three Fortune Tellers can be found in both the Light and the Dark World. One can be found north of Kakariko Village, another one next to the Lake Hylia Shop, and a third one north of the Village of Outcasts. By paying between 10 and 30 Rupees, the Fortune Teller can give Link advice on how to proceed in his adventure. Link's Hearts are also fully refilled.

A Link Between Worlds

The Fortune Teller from Hyrule is located north of Kakariko Village in A Link Between Worlds. He gives Link the Hint Glasses used to find the Hint Ghosts. Another Fortune Teller can be found north of Thieves' Town in Lorule.

Breath of the Wild

About 100 years before the events of Breath of the Wild, shortly after Zelda was born, a Fortune Teller trusted by the Royal Family predicted the resurrection of Calamity Ganon. The Fortune Teller mentioned also that the power to oppose Calamity Ganon lay dormant beneath the ground. In response, King Rhoam ordered the excavation of large areas of land. Thus, the Divine Beasts and the Guardians were discovered. The Fortune Teller's identity and their fate after Ganon's return are unknown.[2][3]
