Jerrin is a character from Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.
Breath of the Wild
Jerrin can be found alongside her husband Robbie at the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab. Despite there being a 50-year age difference between the two, they are in fact married.[1] The two of them run the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab together, where Jerrin focuses her research on Shrines.[2] They also have a son together, Granté, a traveler who is out and about.[3][4] She asks Link that if he does run into his son, to be nice to him.[5] Jerrin is 70 years old, but hides that fact with makeup.
After first reaching the tech lab and continuing the Robbie's Research side quest, Jerrin will be on the first floor of the tech lab, examining some of the books that are on the shelf. When Link first meets Jerrin, she strike a pose that is an impression of Purah, the director at the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab.[6]
Jerrin will wake up each morning at 5am and spend the entire day inside, reading books at the library. At 9pm each evening she will head off to bed.[7] Link can wake her up while she is sleeping, but she will find this to be quite annoying.[8]

After completing the Robbie's Research side quest, Link can speak with Jerrin inside the tech lab. When asking who she is, she will tell Link that she's researching shrines and knows of a shrine to the west at Skull Lake. She mentions that there is a shrine at the top of the left eye, but it is very high up and a challenge to get to. She also mentions the eye on the right side is where Kilton can be found at nighttime.[9] This will begin the shrine quest.
Tears of the Kingdom
Jerrin can be found in the Emergency Shelter, beneath Lookout Landing. She can be seen holding a broom and sweeping up the place. She encourages Link to look around and make himself at home, as long as he doesn't go kicking up dust.[10][11]
Who Goes There?
- Main article: Who Goes There?
After completing one of the major dungeons, Link can return to the Emergency Shelter. There is now a hole in the wall where Jerrin is sweeping and she can hear a creepy voice coming from it that sounds like a demon growling. She is worried for her life and this begins the Who Goes There? quest.[12][13] She has already gone around to say her goodbyes.
Once Link travels into the Royal Hidden Passage and discovers the Horned Statue, he can return to Jerrin to let her know the news.[14] This alleviates her concerns and she thanks Link, rewarding him with a Red Rupee.[15][16]
Trivia
- Jerrin is named after the tangerine.

- ↑ Heya! I'm Jerrin! Check it out! I'm an amateur scholar of ancient history. To be honest...I've been focusing a lot of my research on shrines. - Jerrin
- ↑ Yes, indeed! Together, we run the Akkala Ancient Tech Lab. I've got a son, as well! - Jerrin
- ↑ That's right, I've got one son. His name is Granté. Have you seen him in your travels? - Jerrin
- ↑ Really... Well, if you see him, be nice to him, OK? - Jerrin
- ↑ G'day! Aaaaand... Check it out! ...How was that? I figured I'd give an impression of Hateno Ancient Tech Lab's director, Purah, a shot. Maybe it was a bit much for the first time meeting you, though? - Jerrin
- ↑ I'm not going to sleep yet. I'm powering through. - Jerrin
- ↑ Do not disturb... Ugh, what a drag... - Jerrin
- ↑ ...Oh, that reminds me! Link, there's somewhere you need to go. Umm... The left eye of Skull Lake! I know there's a shrine there, but it's a challenge to get to it... The left eye of Skull Lake is higher up. The right one is lower down. If you run into Kilton, you're on the wrong eye! - Jerrin
- ↑ "Hey, I know that face! And any face I know is the face of a friend! Please, Link. Help yourself to anything in this shelter. It's all yours to use as you see fit. But don't you dare go making a mess of this place and kicking up dust! I spend so much time cleaning in here, and there's still endless amounts of dust. Where does all this dust even come from, anyway?" — Jerrin, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "Why? Why does this spot, specifically, get so dusty?! I'm fed up with all the dust. Anyhow. Help yourself to anything in this shelter. It's all yours to use however you want. But don't you dare go making a mess of this place and kicking up dust!" — Jerrin, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "Oh hey, it's you again. So you know, I've taken the time to say all my goodbyes. The thing is, it's always really dusty around here, so I work overtime to clean it all up. Well, I was working SO hard, in fact, that the force of my broom accidentally took out part of this wall. Ever since, I've been hearing this creepy voice coming from the hold I made—it almost sounds like a demon growling... No one else claims to hear it, but I certainly do. At this point, I'm pretty sure I unsettled that demon when I busted up the wall... So it stands to reason that if it wants revenge, I'll be the one who's targeted! Robbie, Granté... Goodbye forever..." — Jerrin, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "I mean, it's always so dusty around here, and I was working extra hard to clear it all out. You'd think a measily broom banging into a wall wouldn't be enough to collapse it, but here we are... Ever since, I sometimes hear a creepy voice coming from this hold. Ugh, it's probably something awful, like a demon... And that demon is definitely angry with me. Robbie, Granté... Goodbye forever..." — Jerrin, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "You what? You went INSIDE the hole? Did you find the demon?! Is... Is this goodbye for me? Wait. A demon...STATUE was in there, you say? I know a bit about those. Want to know what I know?" — Jerrin, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ ""A dealer in life and power, touched by the wrather of the Goddess, fallen to ruin." Then that must mean the horned statue is an entity who deals in life and power! Which would make the dais the place where it was enshrined, back when it was still a god. So the voice I heard was the forlorn horned statue... As there is the Goddess of light, then it follows that she would have an opposite—the horned god. Like light and dark, one cannot exist without the other—their power manifests through the other's existence. Knocking a hole in the wall? That was fate, no doubt about it. I can't go in there, but I'll keep this area spick-and-span. And I'll be sure to greet the horned statue from here too. Oh, and thanks, you know? Take this." — Jerrin, Tears of the Kingdom
- ↑ "It's Robbie's spending allowance for next month, but now it's your spending allowance. Thanks for clearing this whole thing up for me. Right. Time to settle the ol' nerves and get back to work!" — Jerrin, Tears of the Kingdom
