'''Kasuto''' is the name of two towns in ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|The Adventure of Link]]''.  The original town of Kasuto was attacked and destroyed by monstrous [[Moas]], forcing its people to flee<ref>{{cite|WE HAD TO FLEE KASUTO.|A woman in Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref>, only leaving behind a single [[Old Man]].<ref>{{cite|THE OLD MAN WHO REMAINS HAS MAGIC.|A citizen of Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref> Upon [[Link]]'s first arrival to Old Kasuto, the Moas who have taken over the town are invisible to him, and only by possessing the [[Cross]] can the young hero see these flying creatures. The Old Man who is left here informs Link that the town is deserted, and that he must look in the woods to the east in order to find the new village of Kasuto.<ref>{{cite|THE TOWN IS DEAD. LOOK EAST IN WOODS.|Old Man|The Adventure of Link}}</ref> Once Link has obtained all of the eight [[Magic Container]]s in the game, the Old Man of Old Kasuto will reward him with his most powerful spell yet, the [[Thunder Spell]].

The Hidden Town of Kasuto, also known as the New Kasuto, is found in the eastern woods of the area and is revealed upon hitting a patch of grass with the [[hammer]]. One of the elderly woman living here approaches Link and, if the young hero has three out of the four Magic Containers<ref>{{cite|DO YOU HAVE THE 7 MAGIC CONTAINERS|An old woman in Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref>, she will invite him insider her house to claim the fourth and last container.<ref>{{cite|YOU DESERVE MY HELP.

On the second area of the town is a house with its door wide open. The chimney inside the house has an entrance to it, and entering it leads Link to an [[Old Man]] who teaches him the [[Spell Spell|Spell]].<ref>{{cite|REMEMBER THE MAGIC WORD.|Old Man|The Adventure of Link}}</ref> Using this new-found spell at the edge of town causes a temple to rise from the ground which houses the [[Magical Key]].<ref>{{cite|THERE IS A SECRET AT EDGE OF TOWN.|A citizen of Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref>

{{theory}}

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''.
