Minish Village

The Minish Village is a village of Forest Minish who live in the Minish Woods. They are led by the elder of their village, Gentari. Here, the Minish make their houses out of several objects lost in the forest, such as a jar, a barrel, and a shoe. Others, such as the elder, live in hollowed-out mushrooms.

When Link first arrived at the village, the Minish were very surprised to see him, as he was the first human to visit the village in quite some time. Neither he nor Ezlo could understand the Minish language, however. Fortunately, a Minish by the name of Festari happened to be fluent in the language of the humans, and revealed that an item called the Jabber Nut would be necessary to communicate with the other Minish.

To the north of the village lies Deepwood Shrine, the game's first dungeon. In order to access the dungeon, Link must first speak with the village elder, who will grant him passage through Festari's abbey and into the dungeon.
