Stal

Where it is

From the official guides

Some of the skull-shaped rocks in the Dark World suddenly come to life when Link tries to lift them. Once one moves, it charges straight at Link by the shortest way.

ファミコン通信編集部責任編集 ゼルダの伝説 神々のトライフォースのすべてがわかる本 (アスキー, 1992), p. 103, translated by 101Leafy

A Dark World rock. Touch some of them and they flash and start to move. This is that rock. When it flashes, swing the sword. That should beat it easily.
