==Old Kasuto==
==Features and Overview==
The original town of Kasuto was attacked and destroyed by monstrous [[Moa]]s, forcing its people to flee,<ref>{{cite|WE HAD TO FLEE KASUTO.|Young Woman in Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref> although one [[Old Man]] stayed behind.<ref>{{cite|THE OLD MAN WHO REMAINS HAS MAGIC.|Woman in 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 Jar|Magic Container]]s in the game, the Old Man of Old Kasuto will reward him with his most powerful magic yet, the [[Magic of The Adventure of Link#Thunder|Thunder]] magic.
{{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>


==Hidden Town of Kasuto==
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>
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 [[Old Woman|elderly women]] living here approaches Link and, if the young hero has three out of the four [[Magic Jar#Magic Container|Magic Container]]s,<ref>{{cite|DO YOU HAVE THE 7 MAGIC CONTAINERS|Old Woman in Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref> she will invite him inside her house to claim the fourth and last Container.<ref>{{cite|YOU DESERVE MY HELP. FOLLOW ME.|Old Woman in Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref>


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 [[Magic of The Adventure of Link#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.|Old Woman in Hidden Town of Kasuto|The Adventure of Link}}</ref>
==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>

{{Nomenclature}}
*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''). This, combined with unused data found by hacking the ''Ocarina of Time'' 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''.
 
*Kasuto and Old Kasuto may have served as a prototype or concept for [[Kakariko Village]] and the [[Hidden Village]]. In addition to the names' similarity between Kasuto and Kakariko Villages (first and last syllabes), Old Kasuto shares a connection with the Hidden Village that appears in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess|Twilight Princess]]'', which is also ghost town with a [[Impaz|single resident]].
