Insert your Oracle of Seasons Game Pak into another Game Boy Color, insert a Game Link cable and turn the power ON, but don't press any buttons. Play Oracle of Ages, talk to Blue Snake and choose "Link" to bring Oracle of Seasons rings here. In the same way, you can take rings found here to your Oracle of Seasons game. --NOTE!!!-- If you haven't finished this quest before or come by secret to Labrynna, you cannot link.
Hmm... OK. I have brought your rings from Holodrum, so see Vasu to check your List.
