Link's second visit to Subrosia comes before [[Poison Moth's Lair]]. The portal in Spool Swamp leads to the south-central area of the village, where Subrosia Market is located. South of the market, a path leads down to Subrosia Seaside. Here, Link digs for [[Star-Shaped Ore]], which he then trades for a Ribbon at the market. The young hero gives the Ribbon to [[Rosa]], who then declares she'll "go on a date" with Link.

At first, the only way to reach the southwestern end of the village is by using the portal on Mt. Cucco. The portal leads to a small islet in the river of lava; Link needs Roc's Feather to cross the river. The moment he does so, his feather is stolen by the Strange Brothers, who live nearby. Link gives chase, using [[Stealth]] to follow the brothers to the spot in the Treasure Grove where they hid his feather. He then uses the [[shovel]] to dig it up.<ref>{{Cite book|quote= After entering Subrosia through the warp hole, you'll need to jump over a lava pit using Roc's Feather.

A second Gasha Seed can be found in the home of another Subrosian in the southwest end. Link needs Roc's Feather to jump across the lava surrounding it.

The final portal to Subrosia Village is located on an islet on Eyeglass Lake. It leads to the rocky plateau on the east side of the village, where the Great Furnace is located. When he arrives to the area, Link follows the path down to Lava Lake and finds a Bomb Flower in full bloom. Back at the furnace, the Subrosian smelters tell Link that many of the workers had left to the Temple of Seasons to collect rocks.<ref>{{Cite|Everyone went to gather rocks at the "temple" up north.|Subrosian|OoS}}</ref> At the Tower of Autumn, Link presents the Bomb Flower to the [[Subrosian Smelter|head smelter]] and uses it to destroy the rocks barring the entrance.

Following this, Link can have [[Hard Ore]] smelted at the furnace if he brings the smelters Red and Blue Ore. With the Magnetic Gloves, he can cross a gap to the plateau where the Red Ore is located.<ref>{{Cite book|quote= Even with the speed granted you by a Pegasus Seed, you can't clear the four consecutive holes . . . using Roc's feather.

Another gap west of the furnace separates the east end of Subrosia Village from its center. To cross from the east side, Link needs only Roc's Feather and the Power Bracelet to lift a [[rock]]. This allows him to travel to and from the Temple of Seasons on his visit to the Tower of Autumn. However, should Link enter Subrosia from another portal, the rock on the east side will block the narrow point in the gap. He then needs the Magnetic Gloves or Roc's Cape to cross it at a wider point.
