Ruto Town

Town of Ruto is a town in a mountainous region of northwestern Hyrule in The Adventure of Link.

To receive Link's second spell, he must help a woman recover her stolen trophy. The trophy, which is located in a cave in the Tantari Desert, is being guarded by a Goriya. As a reward for recovering her trophy from the monster, the woman allows Link to meet her uncle and learn the Jump Spell in the process.

The townsfolk of Ruto give helpful advice to Link, such as warning him to not go south without a candle, as well as giving him clues about the whereabouts of the powerful hammer. It is also here that Link meets Error, who tells him about a hidden tunnel near the Harbor Town of Mido.

The town may be named after Princess Ruto, one of the Seven Sages from Ocarina of Time.
