The Stone of Agony is an item in Ocarina of Time.[1]
Location and Uses
The Stone of Agony can be obtained as a reward from one of the cursed children of the House of Skulltula in Kakariko Village after collecting 20 Tokens. Once obtained, the Rumble Pak will vibrate when close to a Secret Grotto. In the Wii Virtual Console version, since the Wii Classic Controller does not support rumble functionality, the Stone of Agony serves no purpose.
Trivia
- According to The Great Hyrule Encyclopedia, the Stone of Agony is a companion relic to the Lens of Truth.[2]
- Although the Stone of Agony does not appear in Majora's Mask, the controller still vibrates when Link is close to a Secret Grotto or hidden Treasure Chest.

While the Lens allows its owner to see what normal eyes can not, the Stone lets its owner feel a powerful trembling when something strange is near. It vibrates whenever it passes near hidden treasure or a secret grotto." — The Great Hyrule Encyclopedia, Zelda.com (Archive).
