Biography

Link's Awakening



Joonya is one of Mamasha's and Papahl's five children.[3] He is one of the Quadruplets and a member of the Quadruplet Family, all of whom live in the Quadruplets House. With the exception of his baby sibling Joonya and his brothers look almost identical to each other, a fact that sometimes confuses their mother.[4]

Joonya can normally be seen tossing a ball back and forth with his brother Kidoh at the southern entrance to Mabe Village. However, once Link returns after having completed Tail Cave, Joonya and his brother Kidoh will rush to meet him and in a panic, and will inform him that while he was gone a gang of Moblins came to the village[5][6] and did something at Madam MeowMeow's House,[7][8] though their panicked state prevents them from being able to give him any more information.[9]

Like all his siblings Joonya will give Link useful information that he himself does understand.[10]
