After trekking through the rafters of Telma's Bar at Louise's suggestion, Link finds himself within Jovani's House, where a Poe is present. Link defeats the Poe and speaks to Jovani, who explains that in a bid for wealth, he sold his soul to a dark creature.[1] Both his body and that of his cat Gengle were encased in gold and they are now unable to move, and he cannot visit his girlfriend.[2] He asks Link, who he calls "doggie", to defeat 20 Poes and take their souls in order to break his curse.[3] He also opens a passageway hidden within the chest in his room that leads to the sewers so that Link can leave.[4]

If Link later returns with 20 Poe Souls, Jovani will regain mobility and his cat will be freed.[5] He gives Link a bottle of Great Fairy's Tears as thanks.[6] However, his body remains encased in gold, so he does not want to be seen in his condition.
