Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly is the third main dungeon in [[Ocarina of Time]], although [[Lord Jabu-Jabu]] makes appearances in several other games. The guardian Jabu-Jabu has been acting strange lately so it is up to [[Young Link]] to follow the instructions of [[Princess Ruto]]'s letter and investigate the belly of the great fish. Entry is gained by capturing a fish in an [[Empty Bottle]] and presenting it to [[Lord Jabu-Jabu]]. Inside of the belly, Link will find many electrical disturbances and an evil presence lurking inside. The [[Boomerang]] can be obtained inside of this dungeon and after successful completion Link will be awarded the Spiritual Stone of Water, also called the [[Zora's Sapphire]].

Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly

Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly is the third dungeon in Ocarina of Time. It is located inside Lord Jabu-Jabu in Zora's Fountain.

Story

Spoiler Alert! This section describes a subject that is sensitive to plot development.

As soon as Link has the Silver Scale, he can pick up a message in a bottle at Lake Hylia. The bottled message turns out to be a letter from Princess Ruto, who calls for help from Inside Jabu-Jabu's Belly[1]. When Link shows the letter to King Zora, he allows Link to go to Lord Jabu-Jabu.

Entry to the dungeon is only gained by offering a delicious fish to the Guardian Deity (either bought at the Zora Shop for 200 Rupees or self-caught). Once entered, Link has to find and carry Ruto to several places until the Spiritual Stone of Water is found. After Link defeats the dungeon boss Barinade, he is rewarded with the Zora's Sapphire by Ruto, who considers it a wedding engagement.

Gaining Entrance

Link cannot even reach Lord Jabu-Jabu until after he gains entry past King Zora. To do so, Link must obtain the Silver Scale by completing the Diving Game in Zora's Domain. With the scale in hand, Link can then use the shortcut to Lake Hylia, where he finds Ruto's Letter. If Link shows the letter to King Zora, the king will request that Link rescue his daughter and will move out of the way (with an infamously slow, squeaking motion) to allow Link passage to Zora's Fountain.

To enter the Zora's deity, Link needs to obtain a Fish in a bottle. This can be done by purchasing one for 200 Rupees, or going to the shallow waters near the Zora Shop and catching one completely free of charge. He then needs to release the fish in front of Jabu-Jabu's mouth, and the great fish will inhale the offering and Link with it. From then on, the dungeon can be entered by simply approaching Jabu-Jabu's mouth directly.
