During the {{Term|OoT3D|Trading Quest}}, Link brings Biggoron the [[Broken Goron's Sword]] to fix, but finds that Biggoron is unable to because of his irritated eyes. He then sends Link to get some [[Eye Drops]], and gives him a [[Prescription]]. Eventually Link brings back the Eye Drops which clears Biggoron's eyes. He then gives Link the [[Claim Check]] for the Biggoron's Sword, which takes three days to complete. Biggoron has a little brother, [[Medigoron]], who is also in the Sword-making business, although the [[Giant's Knife|blades]] he produces are inferior.<ref>{{Cite|My Brotherrrr...
