Forbidden Woods

The Forbidden Woods is a foreboding isle in the Great Sea lying adjacent to Forest Haven in The Wind Waker. It is the third dungeon in the game, and it serves as the dwelling place of many monsters. Makar fell into the woods one day while flying over it despite the warnings of Great Deku Tree not to do so.

It is the lair to the evil creature known as Kalle Demos, a giant carnivorous plant that swallows Makar, holding him captive and forcing Link to fight against it.

This dungeon's prize is the Boomerang, a stylish weapon used primarily to stun, or otherwise kill smaller enemies. It can also be used to destroy ropes, gather out-of-reach items, and target switches. Like in all other dungeons, the Boomerang is used primarily to dispel the boss, Kalle Demos.

Navigating this dungeon also requires extensive use of Magic and the Deku Leaf.

Many believe the woods to be the more evil parts of the Lost Woods from Ocarina of Time. Others believe them to be the remains of Kokiri Forest, as evidenced by the many remains of their characteristic tree homes. Another common belief is that this dungeon is the remains of the Great Deku Tree from Ocarina of Time.

Trivia

 * The emblem of the Kokiri (which resembles the Kokiri's Emerald from Ocarina of Time) may be seen on almost all the doors. This emblem is also seen on the Deku Shield in Ocarina of Time, and the doors of the Forest Temple in Twilight Princess.
