'''Green Kinstones''' are found in abundance across the overworld; they can be found by opening [[Treasure Chests]], cutting grass, digging, or defeating enemies. This Kinstone commonly yields a Rupee reward when fused. The [[Goron Merchant]] sells Green Kinstones for 50 Rupees at his stall in [[Hyrule Town]].

'''Blue Kinstones''' are uncommon, even though they can be obtained much like Green Kinstones, in that simply opening Treasure Chests, cutting grass, digging, or defeating enemies will likely reveal them. Blue Kinstones are most notable for their role in fusing to the [[Mysterious Walls]] hidden within the caves of Hyrule, aiding in the completion of the [[Goron Sidequest]]. The Goron Merchant sells Blue Kinstones for 200 Rupees.

The fusion of a Red Kinstone often yields a gratifying reward, such as a Piece of Heart, 50 or more Rupees, or the opening of previously inaccessible passageways through waterfalls, tree trunks, and cave walls. Sometimes the fusing of a Red Kinstone yields a Treasure Chest that contains another Red Kinstone. The Goron Merchant sells Red Kinstones for 300 Rupees.
