Lord Jabu-Jabu

Ocarina of Time

Lord Jabu-Jabu is the patron of the Zora people in Ocarina of Time. He resides inside Zora's Fountain whose entrance is blocked off by King Zora himself. He is a large fish, or possibly even a whale. He loves to eat fish, and it is said that if you place a fish in front of his mouth than it will give you happiness. When Link gets there he is very sick from the evil that is inside him. When Link pours the bottled fish on the ground, instead of receiving happiness he get grief. Lord Jabu-Jabu sucks up Link along with the fish while he tries to eat the fish. In order to be able to give Lord Jabu-Jabu the fish however, you must go to Lake Hylia first and dive for the bottled note. Then show it to King Zora and he will very slowly move aside so you can access the fountain.

After a while of being in Jabu-Jabu's Belly Link will encounter Ruto, who has escaped inside of him to hide from her father, King Zora. She says that she does that a lot, but this time it is filled with electric jellyfish, weird soap bubbles and tentacles with clubs at the end. Not only that but she lost the gem that her mother gave her. This later turns out to be Zora's Sapphire which you must get in order to beat the game. You must also kill the evil that resides within him, Barinade.

Oracle of Ages

Lord Jabu Jabu is a huge fish who stands as the Deity of the Zora tribe. Inside Jabu-Jabu is said to be a huge maze, but only those allowed by King Zora can enter.

Late in his adventure, Link is informed by the Maku Tree that she senses and Essence of Time within a fish. That fish is none other than Jabu Jabu himself. Once Link saves King Zora in the past, curing him of his illness, and helps the Fairy Queen to gain her old body and powers back so she can cleanse the seas of all the pollution, Link will be allowed to enter Lord Jabu Jabu. Inside Jabu Jabu is the location of the seventh dungeon, as well as the next-to-last Essence of Time.
