[edit] Biography

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

She appears before Link as a ghost in Zora's Domain and again in Kakariko Village. At Zora's Domain, she requests that he find her son, Ralis, and ensure his safety. Once Link reaches Kakariko Village, the ghostly queen grants Link the Zora Armor, which was beneath the village's graveyard, in gratitude for defending her injured and ill son on a journey through Hyrule Field, to get to Renado, a healer trained in helping Zoras.

Ralis mentions to Link that she appeared to him in a dream and explains who Link is and what he looks like.

She mentions that she is the wife of King Zora, who is most likely a descendant of the Zora King of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
