Symmetry Village

"Welcome to Symmetry City! Perfect balance is the law of the land!"

- Symmetry Village Inhabitant

Symmetry Village, known as Symmetry City 400 years later, is a village in the northeastern mountains of Labrynna, in. The most prominent feature of the village is its symmetric design, creating a perfect mirror image over the y-axis.

Overview
As its name would suggest, the entire village is symmetrical, and each inhabitant of the village has their own twin. In the village lies the entrance to Skull Dungeon, home to the fourth Essence of Time. Inside the Middle House, which serves as the town hall for the village, lies the Tuni Nut, the village's sacred symbol that holds the village in balance. In Zelda's age, the Middle House is replaced by a Gale Tree, where Link can gather his first Gale Seeds. The tree also provides easy warp access to the village, which can otherwise only be reached by a bridge spanning the Nuun Highlands in Zelda's age.

In the basement of the Middle House resides Thomas, who plays a role in the Oracle of Ages Trading Sequence. Link can trade him the Dumbbell for his Cheesy Mustache.

Ambi's age (400 years before Zelda)
In search of the fourth Essence of Time, Link arrives from the future. He sees the volcano inside the village erupting, wreaking havoc upon the village. He then learns that the Tuni Nut, the village's sacred symbol, has broken. This causes instability in the village, thus erupting the volcano. To restore balance to the village, Link must bring the Tuni Nut to Patch atop Restoration Wall to have it fixed. Once the nut is fixed and placed on its pedestal in the Middle House, peace will return to the village. The volcano becomes inactive, and

Zelda's age
400 years later, Symmetry Village has become Simmetry City. In search of the fourth Essence of Time, Link travels to the Nuun Highlands where a bridge crosses over to the Talus Peaks where the village is found. However, the bridge will not be built upon Link's arrival. At the request of Mutoh, the head carpenter, Link gathers up all the workers on break, with the help of his animal companion (either Ricky, Moosh, or Dimitri, depending on certain choices Link has made on his adventures). The workers will then build the bridge, allowing Link to enter Symmetry City. Link then travels 400 years back in time to continue his quest for the Essence of Time.

400 years after Ambi's age, the raging volcano is replaced by a waterfall, parted in the middle by the entrance to Skull Dungeon.

Dystopia (i.e. never)
When Link arrives in Symmetry City for the first time, he finds the village in ruins, infested with Podoboo Towers. This never was, because Link saved Symmetry Village 400 years ealier.

"Dystopia" is the name for this kind of plot flaw in fiction about time-travels.

Trivia

 * During Zelda's age, inhabitants of Symmetry City claim to hear music flowing down from the mountains surrounding the village. In reality, the music comes from Tokkey, who is researching a tune for the Harp of Ages inside a cave on Talus Peaks.
 * During Zelda's age, there are two people who live on opposite sides of the village who are not identical twins. One claims he is too small, the other, too big.
