Features

The desert is a small, sandy plain north of North Castle, known for its single, isolated cave. The Tantari Desert is plot-significant; hidden within its depths is a Trophy stolen from a woman in the Town of Ruto. After defeating the very Goriya that stole the trophy,[2] Link returns the trophy to the woman, and in return he receives the Jump spell from her uncle in her house.[3]
