'''Din's Pearl''' is one of three pearls that [[Link]] had to obtain in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. This pearl was owned by [[Prince Komali]], given to him by his deseased grandmother. However, [[Valoo]] had been acting up lately, so Prince Komali felt sad and wouldn't give it to [[Link]], since Komali wanted to go and visit Valoo to get the scale needed to grow his wings. However, Link and [[Medli]] managed to defeat [[Gohma]] and calm Valoo down. Giving the pearl to Link would give Komali courage so he gave it to him. [[Link]] placed the pearl on [[Northern Triangle Island]] to make the [[Tower of the Gods]] rise from the [[Great Sea]]. It has the same mark on it as the symbol for the [[Tune of Currents]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'' and as the [[Power Gems]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]''.

'''Nayru's Pearl''' is one of three pearls that [[Link]] has to obtain in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. This pearl was owned by [[Jabun]] of [[Greatfish Isle]]. However, [[Ganon|Ganondorf]] wanted it and went to destroy Greatfish Isle. Fortunately, Jabun sensed him coming and fled to [[Outset Island]]. Later, Link and the [[King of Red Lions]] came into his cave. Jabun then gave the pearl to Link. Link placed the pearl on [[Southern Triangle Island]] to raise the [[Tower of the Gods]] from the [[Great Sea]]. It has the same mark on it as the symbol for the [[Tune of Ages]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages|Oracle of Ages]]'' and as the [[Wisdom Gems]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]]''.  This part of the quest for the pearls is considered the easiest, as it is the only one that does not require beating a dungeon to get.

Some have noted the similarities shared by the [[Pendants of Virtue]], the Goddess Pearls and the [[Spiritual Stones]]. This could indicate a direct link between these artifacts, or equally it could simply be an example of the designers' desire to create a feeling of familiarity or a sense of a "shared legend" within the series.
