Heightened Hearing is a simple but useful spell which, as its name suggests, heightens the hearing of the subject. To cast this spell on himself, the caster must merely concentrate intensely for several consecutive seconds.

Once cast, the caster's hearing is greatly amplified--roughly tripled. This is particularly noticeable with very quiet sounds, such as a rodent's chewing, or a Keese flapping its wings in the distance. However, this state does impose a drawback. The heightened hearing causes the user's to become very sensitive and easily damaged. A shout through a Megamouth Mask, or a blast from a Cane of Echoes, would likely cause the caster to lost hearing for several minutes.

The user can end this spell at any time by concentrating for a moment. If left alone, the effect will last indefinitely once cast.

Augment

Share Hearing
Additional
Cost
10 rupees

The user can gain the Share Hearing augment simultaneously with the original treasure for an additional cost, or as a separate treasure at a later time. With this augment, the caster is able to cast this spell on others. All it requires is several seconds of intense concentration, then a gentle touch of whoever is to have their hearing amplified. The recipient will always be able to immediately tell their hearing has been increased, and will be able to end the effect on their own by concentrating on it for a moment. If the user doesn't end the effect prematurely, it will last for a few minutes at most.

Trivia

  • This spell functions well with an Ear of Truth, which protects the user's hearing from loud noises.
  • The Heightened Hearing treasure is an original creation by one of Hyrule Castle's members. Its concept is credited to Devil-Steel.
