Biography



Kashiko is the mother of Baito, the part-time worker at the Mail Center on Dragon Roost Island. She is not seen during the events of the game.

If Link manages to impress Baito by sorting at least 25 Letters in Mail Sorting, he will ask Link to put a Letter to his mom in a Postbox for him.[2] Kashiko will respond later with her thanks and a Piece of Heart.

Letter from Kashiko

To my son's superior,

Thank you very much for looking after my
boy. This isn't much, but I hope you'll
accept it all the same.

I politely request your continued kindness
toward my son.
                                   Kashiko
                               (Baito's mother)

Nomenclature

Kashiko's name is possibly a mistranslation of her signature in the Japanese version, where かしこ (Kashiko) is used as a phrase similar to "yours truly".
