'''Golo''' is one of the few [[Goron]]s encountered in {{SS}}. He is an assistant to the archaeologist [[Gorko]] and is researching the legend of the three dragons: [[Faron (Dragon)|Faron]], [[Eldin (Dragon)|Eldin]], and [[Lanayru (Dragon)|Lanayru]].
Golo has an oddly sculpted head and carries a pickaxe used for mining. [[Link]] first meets him in the [[Lanayru Caves]] while searching for [[Sacred Flames|Nayru's Flame]] after completing [[Nayru (Goddess)|Nayru's]] [[Silent Realm]]. Golo is found researching the legend of the three dragons and says that one the three dragons is said to live nearby his location.<ref>{{Cite|I almost never get visitors!

project you invested in? Well, we hit the jackpot! I found a large cache of Timeshift Stones. I can pay you back tenfold now!|Golo|SS}}</ref> With all the Timeshift Stones, the Goron could pay back ten times the amount Link gave him for a total of 100 [[Rupee]]s.
*Golo can cause a [[Glitches in Skyward Sword#Song of the Hero Game Ending Error|game breaking glitch]] if Link performs a certain sequence of events while visiting the dragons for their parts of the "Song of the Hero." If Lanayru's song part is not collected last, talking to Golo a second time after obtaining the Thunder Dragon's part will lock the game into thinking that Link has already collected Faron and Eldin's parts, therefore preventing him from progressing. A [[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Save Data Update Channel|Save Data Update Channel]] was later released in the [[Wii]] Shop Channel to fix the glitch.

==Nomenclature==
*Golo is notable for potentially causing a game breaking glitch later on in the game depending on if Link performs a certain sequence of events while visiting the dragons for their parts of the [[Song of the Hero]]. Provided if Lanayru's song part is not collected last, talking to Golo a second time after obtaining the Thunder Dragon's part will lock the game into thinking that Link still needs to get Lanayru's part when he already has.
