Toren is a character in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
Breath of the Wild
Toren can be found at the Tabantha Bridge Stable. He has strong desire to meet the Great Fairy that is located to the west, near the Tabantha Tower. Toren thinks that the Greay Fairy is kind and beautiful, and just perfect.[1]
At 5am each morning Toren will walk outside of the stable where he will stand by the Cooking Pot. Toren remains out there until 10pm each evening, where he will then head back to the stable and sit on the stool for the rest of the night.
Whenever it rains, Toren will take cover within the stable. On rainy days, he stays inside and spends the whole day thinking about the Great Fairy.[2]
A Gift for the Great Fairy
- Main article: A Gift for the Great Fairy
When Link first talks to Toren, he talks about wanting to travel to the Tabantha Tower, as from there, he'd be able to see where the Great Fairy is located.[3] However, he doesn't think he can climb the tower himself. So instead, Toren will task Link with traveling there for him. Toren will give Link the rupees needed in order to present to the Great Fairy as an offering.[4]
Toren suggests to Link that sometime in the afternoon, the shadow of the tower will point to the Great Fairy's fountain.[5]
After reaching the Fairy Fountain and giving the rupee offering to the Great Fairy Kaysa, Link can return to the stable to speak with Toren. Toren is delighted that Link was able to find the Great Fairy and give the offering, which because Toren gave Link the rupees, he technically got to make his offering.[6] [7] Although Toren gets a bit upset when he realizes that Link wants an additional reward, which Toren does not give.[8]
Tears of the Kingdom
Toren is part of the search party, tasked with finding Princess Zelda. Early on, he can be found on the First Gatehouse alongside Captain Hoz. When Link approaches, Toren will see Zelda in the distance.[9] Although after appearing briefly, Zelda will float up, turn into light, and fly away. This causes Toren and Hoz to be confused, but they then pull back the search party.[10]
Bring Peace to Eldin!

Toren can be found leading His Squad, at the southeast end of Lake Darman. They are preparing to attack the Lake Darman Monster Den as part of the Bring Peace to Eldin! quest.[11] As soon as Link speaks with Toren, or one of the members of his squad, this will begin the attack as the group heads easteward.[12]
Torren will lead his squad into battle within the Lake Darman Monster Den. After successfully defeating the Marauders of Eldin, Toren will thank everybody and will call Link over.[13] He thanks Link again and will comment on Link not having his Master Sword if he didn't get it on his quest yet.[14] Toren will then reward Link with a Silver Rupee.[15] Toren will then say they are off to Akkala next, at the Akkala Span. This will complete the Bring Piece to Eldin! quest, but will then unlock the Bring Peace to Akkala! quest.[16]
Bring Peace to Akkala!

After completing the Bring Peace to Eldin! quest, this will automatically begin the Bring Peace to Akkala! quest. Toren and his squad can be found just south of the Akkala Span. When Link draws near, the squad will attack the forces at the the Span. After defeating the Marauders of Akkala, Toren will once again reward Link with a Silver Rupee.[17]
If Link has helped all three squads two times, Toren will give Link an addition reward of a Monster-Control-Crew Fabric.[18] Toren will then tell Link he's going to give his squad a break, but warns that once the Blood Moon rises, they will be back at it once again.[19] This will complete the Bring Peace to Akkala quest.

- ↑ Ahh... Great Fairy... Oh, pardon me... I was lost in thought. You've heard of the Great Fairy, right? The one from all those stories? Well, they're not just stories! I believe the Great Fairy is real! And I'm on a journey to find her. There's a tower just beyond the Tabantha Great Bridge. They say that if you go to the top and look at the ground sometime in the afternoon... The tower's shadow will point to the Great Fairy's fountain! After hearing that legend, I decided to find out for myself. But now I'm stuck here at this stable because... Well... No matter how hard I try, I just know I'll never be able to climb that tower. And to think, I even saved up all my rupees as an offering for the Great Fairy. But you... You look like you could climb that tower without breaking a sweat! Would you be willing to make an offering of rupees to the Great Fairy on my behalf? - Toren
- ↑ Oh, thank you! Here, take the 500 rupees I saved up. It's my life savings! So please don't just go running off with it, OK? - Toren
- ↑ The shadow of the tower just beyond the Tabantha Great Bridge will point to the Great Fairy's fountain in the afternoon. That's all the information the rumor has to offer. I'm counting on you to make an offering to the Great Fairy! - Toren
- ↑ Hey, it's you! Did you give the Great Fairy an offering? - Toren
- ↑ All right! Thank you! Looks like asking you was a good call after all. So that means you met the Great Fairy, huh? Man, I'm so jealous... But hey, at least you got to meet her! And that means, technically, I got to make my offering to the Great Fairy! I can't thank you enough! - Toren
- ↑ Huh? Um, no, I don't think so... Wait, what? You aren't trying to tell me you want a reward, are you? You got to see the Great Fairy thanks to my tip, didn't you? And now you're asking for more?! Ahh, Great Fairy... Even if it's just in my dreams, won't you appear before me? - Toren

- ↑ "Link, it's you! Do you remember me? It's Toren! We met at Hyrule Castle. We were looking for Princess Zelda. Does this mean you came to help us?! Right now, we're approaching a swarm of monsters up ahead. After we close in on their base, we plan to begin our attack. If you're up for it, Link, we could join forces and give those hideous monsters the boot together!" — Toren, Tears of the Kingdom

- ↑ "You did the hardest part of the work here. I really can't thank you enough, Link. By the way, Link, I couldn't help but noticed you don't seem to be carrying that famed sword of yours. I've heard you have a special sword. And yet, what you have on you now doesn't seem so...special. Ah, never mind... I should know better than to judge things based on looks. I'm sorry." — Toren, Tears of the Kingdom

- ↑ "Without your help, Link. I'm not sure we would have been able to complete our mission. Well, we make for the Akkala Span in northeast Akkala next. We'll try to defeat as many monsters as we can. Farewell for now. I hope we cross paths again some day. May the Goddess Hylia always protect you, braves swordsman." — Toren, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "I can't thank you enough for doing so much on our behalf! Sometimes it feels like you're the real monster-control crew. I am sorry if this has been a burden for you. Here, please take this token of my appreciation for everything you've done." — Toren, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "Speaking of which, I received word from headquarters. It seems we're not the only squad of the monster-control crew you've saved, Link. I'm pleased to deliver this gift from headquarters as a sign of our gratitude. I hope it adds some color to your travels." — Toren, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "I'm thinking of giving the team a bit of a break. The blood moon... I'm sure you've noticed it. When the sky turns crimson, the monsters rise up from the depths of the underworld. We should all rest when we can so we have the energy to fight these endless battles. Link, if you were by our side, I'm sure we'd be safe... But I probably shouldn't burden you like that. With that, it's time for me to go. I hope we meet on the battlefield again someday." — Toren, Tears of the Kingdom
