Fronk is a recurring character in The Legend of Zelda series.[3][4]

Biography

Breath of the Wild

Fronk is a Zora who can be found at Zora's Domain. Alongside Ledo, he is working on repairing the Domain as an apprentice under the smithy Dento.[5][6]

When Link initially approaches Fronk, he will be distant from him. He may ask Link to get out of his way.[7] He might also be quiet for a moment, before he apologize to Link and explains that he was lost in thought.[8]

After the Divine Beast Vah Ruta is appeased by Link, Fronk can be found hammering a pillar in Zora's Domain while conversing with himself.[9] If Link speaks to him, Fronk will apologize and explain that he was talking to himself.[10] Fronk says that after Ruta started rampaging, his wife Mei went out to go fishing.[11] Even though the Divine Beast is appeased, she still has not returned.[12] Fronk wishes he had made her stay and wonders what he should do.[13] If Link offers to find Mei, Fronk expresses his gratitude and apologizes for placing this burden on him.[14] This unlocks the "A Wife Washed Away" Side Quest. Fronk says he will help Link however he can to find Mei.[15]

If Link asks about Mei, Fronk again says she is his wife and the mother of his children, Tumbo and Keye. He says she spends her days catching Fish and selling them at the Coral Reef General Store.[16] Fronk describes Mei as being very lively and cheerful, believing Tumbo gets that from her.[17] Fronk recalls that she was fishing in the Zora River, which began to swell from Divine Beast Vah Ruta's Rain.[18] He believes that the worst case scenario is that she was carried to Lake Hylia.[19]

Once Mei has returned to Zora's Domain, Fronk scolds his wife and tells her that she should not go wandering anymore for a while.[20] Fronk is overwhelmingly appreciative towards Link and thanks him multiple times.[21] If Link speaks to him again, Fronk calls him a true Champion and thanks him in a more composed manner.[22]
