'''Kasuto''' is the name of two towns in ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]''. The original town of Kasuto (Old Kasuto) was attacked and destroyed by monstrous [[Moas]], forcing its people to flee, only leaving behind a single old man. New Kasuto was founded, hidden in the woods in the far east of [[Hyrule]]. Its townsfolk guarded the [[Magical Key]] as well as a powerful magic [[spell]] and valuable magic container.
==Features and Overview==
{{Term|TAoL|Kasuto}} is found in the eastern woods of the area and is revealed upon hitting a patch of grass with the {{Term|TAoL|Hammer|link}}. One of the {{Plural|TAoL|Old Woman|link}} living here approaches {{Term|TAoL|Link|link}} and, if the young hero has three out of the four {{Plural|TAoL|Magic Container|link}},<ref>{{Cite|DO YOU HAVE THE 7 MAGIC CONTAINERS|Old Woman|TAoL}}</ref> she will invite him inside her house to claim the fourth and last {{Term|TAoL|Magic Container}}.<ref>{{Cite|YOU DESERVE MY HELP. FOLLOW ME.|Old Woman|TAoL}}</ref> {{Term|TAoL|Link}} can find a hint written on a wall in one of the empty houses which reveals the location of a {{Term|TAoL|Heart Container|link}} near the shore of {{Term|TAoL|Three-Eye Rock|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|EAST OF TRIPLE EYE ROCK AT SEASHORE.|N/A|TAoL}}</ref>


It is often noted that Kasuto is the only town name in ''The Adventure of Link'' that does not have a similarly named character in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]''. Why this is, is unknown as anyone of slight importance could have gotten this name (contrary to what most people think, the names of the places in ''The Adventure of Link'' are not solely used for [[Sage]]s, as [[Mido]] also was named after a place in ''The Adventure of Link''.)
In the second area of {{Term|TAoL|Kasuto}} is a house with its door wide open. The chimney inside the house has an entrance to it, and entering it leads {{Term|TAoL|Link}} to an {{Term|TAoL|Old Man|link}} who teaches him the [[Magic of The Adventure of Link#Spell|Spell]].<ref>{{Cite|REMEMBER THE MAGIC WORD.|Old Man|TAoL}}</ref> Using this new-found spell at the edge of town causes a temple to rise from the ground which houses the {{Term|TAoL|Magical Key|link}}.<ref>{{Cite|THERE IS A SECRET AT EDGE OF TOWN.|Old Woman|TAoL}}</ref>


This, combined with unused data found by hacking the game cartridge, has led to speculation that another sage with the name of Kasuto may have at one point been intended for the game. Some also believe that [[Kaepora Gaebora]] was Kasuto since Kaepora is a past sage, and Kasuto isn't a sage mentioned in ''Ocarina of Time''.
==Trivia==
* {{Term|TAoL|Kasuto}} features one of the rare occasions where {{Term|TAoL|Link|link}} is shown speaking; when trying to enter the chimney, {{Term|TAoL|Link}} says, "LOOKS LIKE I CAN GET IN THE FIREPLACE."<ref>{{Cite|LOOKS LIKE I CAN GET IN THE FIREPLACE.|Link|TAoL}}</ref>
*{{Term|TAoL|Kasuto}} and {{Term|TAoL|Old Kasuto|link}} are named after an unseen sage.<ref>{{Cite Book|quote= |book= E |publisher= |page= 61 {{Exp Game|TAoL}}}}</ref>
