Biography[]
Jellyf is a Parella who lives in Lake Floria. She serves as the leader of the Parella and acts as a servant to the Water Dragon Faron.
When Link first encounters Jellyf while searching for the Water Dragon Faron, she is initially afraid of him.[3] As Link follows her through the water channel, she quickly becomes annoyed with him and swims between a wooden grate, believing that he cannot reach her now.[4][5] However, Link manages to destroy the grate by spinning into it, to Jellyf's shock.[6] However, after seeing Link's Water Dragon's Scale, Jellyf realizes the he is the emissary of the Goddess.[7] Jellyf informs Link that Ghirahim had invaded the Lake and attacked Faron with his horde of monsters, wounding her in the process.[8][9] However, she also explains that Faron is running low on Sacred Water needed for her recovery.[10] She then implores that Link help Faron and guides him through Lake Floria's submerged tunnels to her lair.
Along the way, Jellyf assists Link by informing him of the Froaks and the Cranioc that patrol the way. At the very end of the waterway, Jellyf opens the door to Faron's dwelling by inserting her head crest into its lock as a key.
