Varke

Varke is a character in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Breath of the Wild

Varke runs the Snowfield Stable, found along the pathway, northeast of the Hebra Tower. He runs both the Stable and the Inn. When talking to Varke from outside, Link can take a horse, board a horse, or register a new horse.[1] From the inside of the stable, Link can talk to Varke to rent out a bed. Varke offers two types of beds, a regular bed for 20 rupees, and a Soft Bed for 40 rupees.[2]

Tears of the KIngdom

Varke continues to run the Snowfield Stable. When Link first arrives at the stable, he can speak with Varke who will award him with a Pony Point. Varke is welcoming towards Link, asking if he wants to register a horse, or to take one out for a ride.[3]

After completing one of the Regional Phenomena, as well as acquiring the Camera as part of the Camera Work in the Depths quest, Link can examine the empty picture frame on the wall in the stable. Varke will mention that The Stable Association asked them to hang the signs up to get ready for paintings to be put up.[4]

Varke wants to get a picture of a giant bird, with wings spread wide in the Hebra Mountains. He mentions that if Link travels to Talonto Peak and looks to the northwest on a clear day, he can see the form a giant bird on the mountainside. While Varke wishes he can go himself, he can't leave the stable unattended. He mentions even a picture of the giant bird would suffice.[5] This will begin the A Picture for Snowfield Stable quest.

  4. "Ah, Link, has that empty frame caught your eye? We stable owners are going to be putting paintings on display for everyone to enjoy. The Stable Association figured it'd be a good idea for us to hang the frames first to get ready." — Varke, Tears of the Kingdom
  5. "I've been putting a lot of thought into what might be a good painting to pair with that frame. And I've finally made my decision. I want a picture of the giant bird with wings spread wide in the Hebra Mountains. Tell me, have you seen the lone cedar tree growing on Talonto Peak, the southernmost Hebra Mountain? If you look to the northwest from that tree on a clear day, you can see the form of a giant bird on the mountainside. I've never seen the real thing though. I'd go if I could...but there's no way I can leave the stable unattended. But how magnificent it must be! Thinking of that giant bird stretching its wings in the Hebra Mountains gives me chills. How I wish I could puts its likeness on the wall! Even copying it from a decent picture would be enough for me..." — Varke, Tears of the Kingdom
