{{quote|Ancient Hylian lore states that only the person who wears the Pendants of Courage, Power and Wisdom can become the Hero. It has also been said that only the Hero can wield the Master Sword. The three Pendants are the key to unlocking the Master Sword from the stone in which it has been imbedded [sic] for eons. When Link obtains all three Pendants, he should go to the Lost Woods and find the Master Sword. After obtaining the powerful work of art, he can go after the root of the evil.|[[A Link to the Past Nintendo Player's Guide]]}}

There are three Pendants in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past|A Link to the Past]]''. Unlike later games in [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|''The Legend of Zelda'' series]]; the color that denotes "Wisdom" is red, and the color representing "Power" is blue, although "Courage" remains green. Link needs to take all three to the [[Lost Woods (A Link to the Past)|Lost Woods]] to prove he is the Hero worthy of the [[Master Sword]]. They are all found in the first part of the game, in the [[Light World]].

The Pendant of Courage is the green-colored pendant given to Link by [[Zelda (A Link Between Worlds)|Princess Zelda]], before [[Link (A Link Between Worlds)|Link]] even knows what the Pendants or Master Sword are. [[Sahasrahla (A Link Between Worlds)|Sahasrahla]] tells him of the Pendants of Virtue after [[Hyrule Castle]] is sealed by [[Yuga]] with Zelda and [[Impa]] inside. He charges Link to obtain the other two pendants - the red-colored Pendant of Power from the [[Tower of Hera (A Link Between Worlds)|Tower of Hera]] dungeon, and the blue Pendant of Wisdom from the [[House of Gales]] dungeon.
