Oddly, this Pendant is blue in color, while other items associated with power or [[Din (Goddess)|Din]], such as the [[Goron's Ruby]], [[Din's Pearl]], and [[Din's Flame]], are colored red. However, this could be because stronger variants of enemies are usually colored blue, such as in {{TLoZ}}.

The Pendants of Virtue are recurring Items in The Legend of Zelda series.[1]

Quest Purpose

In A Link to the Past, the pendants are required in order to retrieve the Master Sword. Link must travel to three dungeons and collect each one before going to the Lost Woods to find the Master Sword. An ancient Hylian verse on the pedestal of the Master Sword about the pendants reads:

"The Hero's triumph on Cataclysm's Eve

Wins three symbols of virtue.
The Master Sword he will then retrieve,

Keeping the Knights' line true."


In A Link Between Worlds, the pendants are also required to obtain the Master Sword. Link receives the Pendant of Courage from Princess Zelda, but must travel to two dungeons to find the other two.[2] Once all three pendants are acquired, Link must travel to the Lost Woods to obtain the Master Sword.
