Space to see the (very bad quality) picture of the original drawing
I have a headcanon that all the Koroks are actually part of the Yiga Clan. Why else would they torture Link to find all 900 "Korok Seeds" to give him Hestu's "Gift"? And it also explains why all the "I need to reach my friend!" Koroks are always going in the opposite direction than you. Nintendo Me Full lore (will add to it): Almost all the Koroks are Yiga Clan. The few who aren't live in the Korok Forest, protected by the Great Deku Tree. So we poisoned him with Gloom. Hestu is our inside man, spying for us on Link, the Royal Family, the Lost Woods, the Sheikah, everything. Our ranks are scattered all across Hyrule, 900-1000 at a time. We fill Link's pockets with junk. Most Yiga Footsoldiers and even some of the Blademasters are just 3-5 Koroks in a Yiga Suit
