I've been incubating this egg very carefully... Tee hee!|Malon|OoT}}</ref> Malon returns to Lon Lon Ranch with her father. When Link goes visit her at the ranch, she introduces him to a young horse named [[Epona]],<ref>{{Cite|Oh yeah, I have to introduce you to my friend, fairy boy! She's this horse. Her name is Epona.

Seven years later, when Link returns to the ranch, he discovers that Ingo has exiled Talon and taken over the ranch. Malon has been working for Ingo out of fear of the ranch's horses facing abuse from him if she disobeys his orders.<ref>{{Cite|Oh...a visitor! It's been a long time since we've had a visitor here... Where did you come from? Since Ganondorf came, people in the Castle Town have gone, places have been ruined, and monsters are wandering everywhere. Mr. Ingo is just using the ranch to gain Ganondorf's favor... Everyone seems to be turning evil... But Dad... He was kicked out of the ranch by Mr. Ingo... If I disobey Mr. Ingo, he will treat the horses so badly... So... There's nothing I can do...|Malon|OoT}}</ref> Moreover, since Ingo was planning to give Epona as a present to [[Ganondorf]], Malon was the only one who could tame her.<ref>{{Cite|Epona really liked that song... Only I could tame that horse... Even Mr. Ingo had a hard time... Hee hee hee!|Malon|OoT}}</ref> Malon tells Link that she had recognized him but was not sure until he told her his name.<ref>{{Cite|Thank you very much for the other day... I haven't even asked you your name yet... ........ Really? Link! That's what I thought! You're the fairy boy from the forest! That was years ago! Do you remember me? You do? I was sure it was you because Epona remembered you! Oh, I have to tell you about Mr. Ingo... He was afraid that the Evil King might find out that Epona had been taken away... It really upset him! But one day, all of a sudden, he went back to being a normal, nice person! Now my dad is coming back...I can't believe it, but peace is returning to this ranch! It's all because of you! I owe you so much! Thank you! Thank you, Link!|Malon|OoT}}</ref>

As a minigame, Malon lets him race around the ranch to compete against her best time.<ref>{{Cite|How about trying your skill with Epona on an obstacle course? I'll time you for two laps. It's pretty challenging. If you miss jumping a fence in the proper order, you'll fail. How about it? Do you want to try?|Malon|OoT}}</ref> When he is able to beat her time, she rewards him by sending a [[Cow]] to his [[Link's House|house]] in [[Kokiri Forest]], which may be used as a free source of [[Milk]]. Should Link best his own time afterwards, Malon will simply compliment his and Epona's teamwork.<ref>{{Cite|You and Epona make a great team!|Malon|OoT}}</ref>
