'''Laruto''' is a [[Zora]] who appears in spirit form in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]'', and is the Earth Sage.
Laruto appears to [[Link]] after he conducts the [[Earth God's Lyric]] found on a large stone slab blocking the entrance to the Earth Temple. Laruto tells Link that he must search for her descendant and successor, the one who continues her bloodline and carries the same [[Medli's Harp|harp]] she holds, in order to restore power to the sword.{{Ref|WW|1266-1267|Laruto}} She instructs him to play the song for the new sage when he finds them.{{Ref|WW|1268|Laruto}} Her descendant is [[Medli]], a young [[Rito]] girl living on [[Dragon Roost Island]] who Link had assisted before.{{Ref|''[[The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia]]''|'''The Sage of Earth'''<br>This sage played a harp. Medli, a maiden of the Rito tribe who awakens as a sage, is an attendant to the guardian deity Valoo. Her predecessor as Sage of Earth was Laruto of the Zora tribe.|pg. 127}} Upon conducting the Earth God's Lyric to her, Medli collapses and experiences a vision of Laruto, who awakens her to her destiny.{{Ref|WW|1852-1854|Medli}}


Laruto was one of the two sages responsible for keeping the [[Master Sword]] able to repel evil. Knowing this, [[Ganon]] ensured her demise, commanding [[Jalhalla]] to kill her. Her spirit resided in the [[Earth Temple (The Wind Waker)|Earth Temple]] awaiting the arrival of the [[Wind Waker]].
After Link defeats [[Jalhalla]], he places the Master Sword in the center of the room and conducts the Earth God's Lyric to Medli. Laruto is seen playing the harp next to her and the Master Sword regains some of its lost power. Laruto is not seen again after this event.

Laruto tells Link that he must search for her descendant and successor, the one who continues her bloodline and carries the same harp she holds. Her descendant is [[Medli]], a young [[Rito]] girl living on [[Dragon Roost Island]] who Link had assisted before. Upon conducting the Earth God's Lyric to her, Medli collapses and experiences a vision of Laruto who awakens her to her destiny.
Seeing as how Laruto only appears in cutscenes, there is no way to manually take a pictograph of her. Instead, Laruto's [[Figurines|Figurine]] can be acquired from [[Lenzo]], who sells a pictograph of Laruto (who he refers to as the Earth Sage{{Ref|TWW|4001|Lenzo}}) as one of his [[Legendary Pictographs]]. In the original, he sells the pictograph for 50 [[Rupee]]s; in the ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD|The Wind Waker HD]]'', he sells it for 150 Rupees. In both games he sells this pictograph while the moon is in its first quarter phase. Also, this pictograph only becomes available after Link has encountered Laruto in a cutscene.
