Steps

  1. Doors in Kakariko Village and at Lake Hylia lead to the fortune teller's room. In the Dark World, a door in the Village of Outcasts leads to the other half of the room, where he works the same way.
  2. Each time Link talks to him, he picks one of the four prices at random, each with a 1 in 4 chance. If Link has fewer Rupees than that, he turns Link away.
  3. If Link asks for his fortune, he tells it first, then takes the Rupees and fills Link's hearts.
  4. Until Sahasrahla sends Link to the Eastern Palace, he has only one fortune. After that he goes down the list below and keeps the first two that still apply. He tells them in turn, one per reading.
