Named after a legendary steed, Epona's Song is most useful to a player who has a mount, pet, or similar companion. Playing this mystical song requires a degree of skill, but can be finished in roughly 5-to-10 seconds. Once the song finishes, the player's mount will be magically summoned to player's side instantaneously, even from immense distances. The song cannot bring the mount through different dimensions, however, such as bringing a horse from Hyrule to the Twilight Realm, or vice versa. If the player has more than one mount, he or she can select which mount to summon by mentally picturing the chosen mount while playing.

Variant

A character may freely gain the Horse Call in place of Epona's Song. This variant is a small horseshoe-shaped flute, and thus is considered a mechanical item instead of a song.

When the holder of this expertly-crafted flute blows into it properly, requiring little expertise, it effectively plays Epona's Song skillfully enough for the required period of time. As such, it has the same end effect of Epona's Song itself. Despite its name, it can summon any mount to the user, and not just horses.

Trivia

The Epona's Song treasure canonically appears in the Zelda series, initially in Ocarina of Time. More information about the canonical version of this treasure can likely be found on Zelda Wiki. The Horse Call canonically appears in Twilight Princess.
