Zora River

, also known as, is a recurring location in the. It is one of the main bodies of water in Series:, with its water source being either Series: or Series:.

In, water from the Zora's River flows from OoT:, which serves as the water source of all OoT:. While the region known as Zora River consists of a region of the river to the east, the river itself continues throughout OoT:. Eventually, the water of Zora's River reaches OoT:, passing through OoT: in the process. At the northern section of the river is the OoT:, a seemingly impassable waterfall that protects the entrance to OoT:. Zora's River is accessible either by OoT: or through an underwater portal located in the OoT:.

A few bridges are built over the river for easy traversing. Its waters, however, are infested with monsters. On the way to the OoT: is a group of frogs collectively known as the OoT:, although they disappear when OoT: returns to the river seven years later.

portrays Zora's River in possibly its largest incarnation thus far. The water from Zora's River comes from the throne room in TP:. It flows down to a section known as the TP:, and from there the water splits into three branches. One branch flows into north TP:, and the other two wind down through an area known as the TP:. The latter branches serve as the water source for TP:, which is where the river ends. However, these parts of the river are not accessible by foot and can only be reached by canoe or by riding a TP:. Due to its immense length, the river serves as the location of two mini-games: TP: and the TP:. Going against the rapids involves the TP:, using a TP: for flight. Going downstream involves traversing the Rapid Ride in a kayak (similar to the one used in TP:).

When TP: as a TP: first visits the TP: while it is covered in TP:, he finds out that the Zora's River has dried up since TP: has completely frozen over. As such, TP: has dried up as well, threatening the lifestyle of the TP: people and impeding them from returning upstream. To get to TP:, TP: has to ride a TP: through the dried-up river. Upon reaching TP:, TP: will discover that the TP:s' entire domain has frozen over, and it is not until TP: TP: a TP: from TP: into the TP:s' throne room that the ice will melt and the water will begin to flow again. Later, he must travel to TP: by TP: a second time to defeat the NaN Shadow Insects along the route and obtain their TP:.

Zora's River appears in two stages of. The first appearance in LCT: places LCT: inside a canoe and travels down the same section of the river as TP:'s Rapid Ride. The second appearance of the river in LCT: is specifically seated in the outer waters of LCT:.

Trivia

 * Until OoT: plays "OoT:" at the OoT: in, OoT: will constantly reappear near the entrance of Zora's River and instruct him to play the aforementioned song whenever OoT: moves far away enough to reload him or leaves Zora's River and returns.
 * In, the TP: part of Zora's River passes through the TP: and under the TP:. Despite this, the map labels it as part of the TP:.
