Cottla is a character in.

Biography
Cottla is a member of the Sheikah tribe who can be found in Kakariko Village. She is the daughter of Dorian and sister of Koko. Cottla's mother was killed by the Yiga Clan after Dorian defected and joined the Sheikah. As Dorian is obligated to guard Impa, Cottla and Koko were left without any caretakers to watch over and provide for them. This forced Koko to assume her mother's duties, as Cottla is too naive to grasp the notion of her late mother's passing and instead believes her to be hiding. Because of this, Cottla is often left without anybody to play with.

In the mornings, Cottla leaves her home and travels up to the Ta'loh Naeg Shrine to look for her mother. After visiting the Ancient Shrine, she spends time with her father and sister beneath the Tree beside her house. Between 12:00pm and 4:00pm, she can be found playing along the main road of Kakariko Village. If Link speaks with her, Cottla expresses her boredom and grows excited at the potential to play with him. If Link accepts her offer to play, he will have the option of either playing hide-and-seek or tag, beginning the "Playtime with Cottla" Side Quest. She warns Link that she must leave to join her family for dinner when it is ready, however. If Link successfully plays with Cottla, she will gift him a piece of Rock Salt as thanks. Link can then play with her again for more pieces of Rock Salt or Amber.
