When [[Link]] arrives to the Deku Palace, the Deku Butler comments at the sad state that the Deku Kingdom finds itself in from having a kidnapped [[Deku Princess|princess]], a poisoned [[Southern Swamp|swamp]], and a king who will not listen to reason and only willing to blame a [[Monkey]] for the princess's disappearance.<ref>{{cite|It's terribly sad... But nothing can calm the king now.... Our swamps have become poisoned...This may be the end of the Deku Kingdom! Oh, great lords! Save us!|Deku Butler|MM}}</ref> Moreover, the Deku Butler fears the Deku Princess has really been caught up in trouble, but since the Deku King is unwilling to calm down, the kingdom cannot send out troops to look for her.<ref name=butler/> After Link rescues the princess and clears the swamp from poison, the Deku Butler thanks the young hero for his help and asks him to meet him in the [[Deku Shrine]] to give him a reward as a sign of gratitude.<ref>{{cite|As a symbol of our gratitude, our butler has prepared a little something for you. Please accept it. You'll find it in the shrine that will be to your right when you leave the palace.|Deku Princess|MM}}</ref> Here, the butler leads Link through a labyrinth full of traps.

During the [[New Day|end credits]], the Deku Butler is seen mourning at a small Deku-like twisted tree found before the tunnel that leads to the [[Clock Tower]]. This is the same one that [[Tatl]] comments on at the beginning of the game.<ref>{{cite|Come over to this tree and check it out! It's strange, but the way you look right now sort of looks like this tree... It looks all dark and gloomy... almost like it could start crying any second now...
