"They... They come at night...every year when the carnival approaches..."

Romani

The ghosts known only as Them or They are enemies from Majora's Mask. They are Poe-like creatures that project beams of light from their eyes. Every year around the Carnival of Time, they appear and try to steal cows from Romani Ranch.

Majora's Mask

If Link meets Romani on the First Day, she will tell him about Them and ask for help battling them at night. She explains that her sister, Cremia, does not know about the problem.[1] Link agrees to help her after she makes sure he is qualified for the job by having him shoot balloon targets around Romani Ranch.

At 2 AM that night,[2] They come to the ranch and slowly approach the barn. Link must fend them off until morning by shooting them with arrows.[3] The Inverted Song of Time will slow them down. It is easiest to hit them while riding on Epona.

If Link manages to stop Them all until the Dawn of the Second Day, Romani will reward him with a bottle of milk.[4] If Link fails to keep them back until morning, they will steal the cows and kidnap Romani, returning her later without her memories.[5][6]
