Fado (Twilight Princess)

Fado is a character in.

Biography
Fado is responsible for running the Ordon Ranch, and appears to be Link's employer. He teaches Link to ride Epona by setting up fences for practice. Should Link return to the ranch before getting Epona back, Fado will tell him how difficult things were in Ordon after he left, then proceeds to encourage Link to look for the children. After Link restores light to the Eldin Province and gets Epona back, Fado will give him a Piece of Heart should he herd 20 goats into the barn in less than 3 minutes. Fado is last seen during the ending credits, calling to Link's empty house.

Personality
Fado is a simple, friendly man. He does not seem to be very good at herding the goats and Mayor Bo is always worried about the goats escaping when Fado is looking after them by himself. Though he appears to be Link's employer, Fado is always kind to him, treating him as an equal. He will even go to lengths as to not trouble Link, but will eventually need his help chasing after a loose goat or herding them into the barn at the end of the day.
