==Town==
==Description==
Hytopia is a small city settlement which is situated directly in front of [[Hytopia Castle]]. It serves as the main hub world when the [[Links]] are not in the [[Drablands]]. It is aligned with several town houses, as well as numerous trees and a couple shops: most notably [[Madame Couture's]], where people go to get [[Outfit]]s tailored by [[Madame Couture|Couture]], as well as the [[Daily Riches]] shop and the [[Miiverse Gallery]]. Once Link has cleared the [[Woodlands]] Area in the Drablands, the [[Street Merchant]] will also arrive and set up a small stall, where he will sell and buy various [[Material]]s.<ref>{{Cite|Hey! Didja know? Didja?! Ma says a Street Merchant is comin' to town! Mimi's gonna be the first in line, teehee!|Mimi|TFH}}</ref> Between the castle and the town's main square is a small waterway with a bridge. Link can dive into the water by climbing down a nearby fleet of stairs. Green [[Rupee]]s can be found hidden beneath the bridge.

Link can leave the town by taking the southern gate, where a [[Soldier|Guard]] keeps watch to ensure that no suspicious people leave. Link can speak with him whenever he wishes to leave town; doing so will save the game's progress and return to the title screen.

=== Merger with Hyrule ===
Sometime following the lifting of {{Term|TFH|Princess Styla}}'s curse, {{Term|Series|Hytopia}} ceased its autonomy, and underwent a merger with {{Term|Series|Hyrule}}, becoming the kingdom's northern region. Although {{Term|Series|Hytopia}} as its own settlement was no more, [[Hyrule/Appearances by Game#The Adventure of Link|the incarnation of Hyrule]] that existed during The Era of Decline's [[Zelda Timeline#The Hero.27s Quest to Reunite the Triforce|Quest to Reunite the Triforce]] was influenced by its legacy. {{Term|Series|Hytopia}}'s powerful magic users led to many people who could use magic to exist during this generation, and the residents of settlements to the northernmost region of {{Term|Series|Hyrule}} were particularly fashionable.<ref name="E 61" />
