| − | '''Faron Province''' is part of the province system in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'' and ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]''. The province is named after its original protector, the great Water Dragon known as [[Water Dragon|Faron]] and is later protected by the [[Light Spirit]] of the [[Faron (Spirit)|same name]].<ref>{{cite web|quote=Hyrule Castle is located in Lanayru Province in the centre of the land. The other provinces are named Faron, Eldin and Ordona after the dragons of the Era of the Goddess Hylia, and they’re protected by the Light Spirits bearing the same names.|url=http://www.glitterberri.com/hyrule-historia/page-116/|title=Pg. 116 The Palace of Twilight; retrieved June 13 2012|site=Glitterberri.com}}</ref> A large majority of the province is made up of the [[Faron Woods]] and other forested areas either within or around the woods. |

| − | In the [[Zelda Timeline#The Era of Twilight|Era of Twilight]], a young hero from [[Ordon Village]] in the Ordona Province, [[Link#Twilight Princess|Link]], first enters the Faron Province while pursing his friend [[Talo]] and a [[monkey]] that has recently been causing trouble in his village, leading him through Faron Woods and to the Forest Temple, where he finds his friend and the monkey captured by a group of [[Bokoblins]]. The province is later covered in a [[Twilight|curtain of twilight]] after its Light Spirit, who was protecting the light of the province, is attacked by [[Twilight Monsters]]. After saving the Light Spirit and returning light to the area, Link sets off to return to the Forest Temple at the request of [[Midna]] to retrieve the first piece of the [[Fused Shadow]]. Later on in the game, having been permanently transformed into a [[Wolf Link|wolf]] due to [[Zant|Zant's]] [[Shadow Crystal]], Link must return to the Faron Woods to enter the Sacred Grove hidden deep within and retrieve the [[Master Sword]] at the ruins of the [[Temple of Time]] in order to return to his human form. The young hero later meets up with [[Rusl]] in the Faron Woods, who helps him access the Sacred Grove once again, where he then must enter through the Temple of Time's remaining entrance. He is transported to a point far into the past, a time when the temple still stood in full glory. There, he collects the [[Dominion Rod]] and a [[Mirror Shard|piece]] of the broken [[Mirror of Twilight]] upon the defeating [[Armogohma]]. |

| − | In the [[Zelda Timeline#The Sky Era|Sky Era]], the Faron Province is protected by Faron, the Water Dragon, who resides with the Parella in Lake Floria, located southeast of Faron Woods. Coming from the the world above the clouds, Link first visits the province when he lands on [[Hyrule|the Surface]] in his desperate mission to find his childhood friend, [[Zelda#Skyward Sword|Zelda]], who landed there sometime earlier. He lands in the Sealed Grounds, and meets the elderly [[Impa#Skyward Sword|Impa]] protecting the Sealed Temple. She directs him to continue on his quest in Faron Woods, the defining feature and largest section of the Faron Province. Upon reaching the woods, he is tasked by the Kikwi elder [[Bucha]] to find the other scattered and hiding members of the tribe, who claims that putting his fear and worry to ease will help him remember where Zelda ran off to after she met him.<ref>{{cite|I've been so worried about my Kikwis. But if you could put my fears to rest, I might remember where that girl you seek ran off to, kwee.|Bucha|SS}}</ref> After doing so, he is given the [[Slingshot]], granting him access to the Deep Woods and Skyview Temple. During his search for Zelda through the woods, Link comes across to Deep Woods of Faron, where he comes across Skyview Temple and his companion [[Fi]] detects she is now located. Upon fighting and defeating the temple's boss, [[Ghirahim]], he finds the Skyview Spring, but Zelda has already left the Faron Province by then. He then moves on to the next province in his journey, the Eldin Province. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Link much later returns to the Faron Province for his first [[Silent Realm]] trial in Faron Woods. When he completes the challenge, he is given the [[Water Dragon's Scale]], allowing him access to the Great Tree. The elder Kikwi, [[Yerbal]], is found at the top of the Great Tree and sends Link to the other main part of Faron Province, Lake Floria, to meet with the province's protector. The Water Dragon known as Faron, the province's protector, had been wounded by an attack from Ghirahim. Link heals her with [[Sacred Water]] from Skyview Spring, and in return she parts the waterfall in front of the Ancient Cistern, the dungeon hiding [[Farore's Flame]]. After Link defeats the boss, [[Koloktos]], and with his newly powered sword, he proceeds to the next step in his adventure. |
||
| − | |||
| − | Link must visit the province one last time in order to receive Faron's section of the [[Song of the Hero]], but Faron has flooded the woods to wash away the monster infestation,<ref>{{cite|This may be news to you, but some very irksome monsters have been overrunning my woods of late. Well, I decided that I'd had enough! The easiest way to deal with the awful things was to flood the whole woods.|Faron|SS}}</ref> forcing the aged Impa guarding the Sealed Temple to create a barrier around the woods and making it impossible to move beyond the Sealed Grounds. While Link searches for a way into the woods, [[The Imprisoned]] attacks once again. After using his [[Groosenator]] to help Link re-seal The Imprisoned, Groose gets the idea to use it to launch Link into the woods. Once there, Link must find Faron. After finding Faron at the Great Tree, she reveals the reason she flooded the woods was to remove the monsters tainting the realm and to prevent them from coming back. She instructs Link to collect the various [[Tadtone]]s scattered across the submerged area.<ref>{{cite|As you just saw, I have split the melody you seek among my many Tadtones and I have hidden them around the forest.|Faron|SS}}</ref><ref>{{cite|If you wish to earn my favor, gather the Tadtones and return to me.|Faron|SS}}</ref> When he has successfully found all of the tadtones, Faron teaches Link her part of the Song of the Hero and lowers the water level so that he and the Kikwi are able to make their way around Faron Woods normally again. |
