Koroks are by far the most | Koroks are by far the most varied race in this game, with over 913 different Koroks overall. This includes the 900 hidden Koroks, the 13 NPCs, all of whom can be found in or around the Korok forest at some point, and other Koroks in the forest who hide when Link approaches; these last ones can't be interacted with and are purely cosmetic, but they show just how many exist. | ||
In the center of the [[Lost Woods]], the [[Great Deku Tree]] resides over the Korok Forest, the home of the Koroks. Many Koroks can be found here, though most will hide when Link gets close. A few, such as [[Chio]], will converse with Link. After collecting all 900 Korok Seeds, Hestu will tell Link that all the Koroks have returned to the Korok Forest,<ref>{{Cite|{{Big|Hey! Guess what!}} All of the forest children returned to the Korok Forest! You must have had an army of people searching for them, huh?|Hestu|BotW}}</ref> though the Koroks can still be found in their original locations. | In the center of the [[Lost Woods]], the [[Great Deku Tree]] resides over the Korok Forest, the home of the Koroks.

It is stated that most people cannot see Koroks, which is why some are confused as to how Link can see them. It is implied though that Link is not the only one, as the [[Hateno Village|Hateno-born]] merchant [[Agus]] says he was spooked by a big tree ghost by [[Lake Siela]]; this is where the oversized Korok [[Hestu]] can originally be found, meaning that is likely what Agus saw. He didn't interact with the "tree ghost" though, meaning Link was the first; this | It is stated that most people cannot see Koroks, which is why some are confused as to how Link can see them.
