Stone Mask

Bring the Lens of Truth and a bottle of Red or Blue Potion to find Shiro. He is an invisible soldier who asks for medicine. Use the Lens to reveal him, speak to him, and hand over the potion; the Stone Mask is his reward. Finding the correct location depends on your game edition.

Get the mask

Bring the Lens of Truth and a bottle of Red or Blue Potion to find Shiro. He is an invisible soldier who asks for medicine. Use the Lens to reveal him, speak to him, and hand over the potion; the Stone Mask is his reward. Finding the correct location depends on your game edition.

Complete the interaction

On N64, Shiro sits inside a circle of stones on the Road to Ikana. On 3DS, he has moved into the Pirates’ Fortress, near the central watchtower. A guide that sends a 3DS player back along the Ikana road for this mask is using the original game’s location. The potion-and-Lens requirement remains the useful preparation for either route.

Use and rewards

Wearing the mask makes Link inconspicuous to many ordinary enemies and guards. The Pirates’ Fortress is a particularly helpful use because the stealth route contains repeated patrols. Equip it before crossing exposed areas, then change to Zora form or another tool as the room requires. It does not make the player universally invisible, and bosses or certain special enemies can still respond.

Route and edition notes

This is a convenience mask for exploration rather than a replacement for the Hookshot, Zora Mask or a dungeon key. Its ordinary-mask classification also means it belongs in the set collected for the Moon Children. If you are following a complete-collection route, obtain it in the edition’s correct region before leaving for the Moon, rather than postponing it as optional stealth equipment.
