The [[Magic of The Adventure of Link#Shield|Shield]] magic can be earned here by speaking to one of the women in town. She wishes for Link to talk to her father before leaving to his next destination.<ref>{{Cite|TALK WITH MY FATHER BEFORE YOU LEAVE TOWN|Hylian|TAoL}}</ref> Upon entering her house, an [[Old Man]] will be waiting at the end of the basement to teach the young hero his first spell, which will prove useful to Link when he journeys through the [[Parapa Desert]] north of Rauru.<ref>{{Cite|IN PARAPA DESERT USE THIS MAGIC TO SURVIVE|Old Man|TAoL}}</ref>

The town of Rauru appears in the "[[Quest for the Potion of Power]]" episode of {{CN}}. The episode starts with the citizens enjoying a beautiful day until Moblins appear and cause the townsfolk to go into hiding. It is later revealed by [[Princess Zelda]] that the Moblins are trying to revive [[Ganon]] using a [[Potion of Power|special potion]] found somewhere in Rauru Town, and they ask help from Captain N, also known as Kevin, so that they may find it first before it falls into the wrong hands.<ref>{{Cite Episode|quote=Only one: that they're searching for a magic potion that will restore his power. WE'VE gotta find it first.|name=Princess Zelda|show=Captain N: The Game Master|episode=16}}</ref>  

When the heroes arrive to Rauru, they find it practically deserted, until they see a woman walk by not far from where they are. They ask her for help in finding the potion, but the woman nervously exclaims that she knows nothing and runs away.<ref>{{Cite Episode|quote=Please, I know nothing!|name=Woman|show=Captain N: The Game Master|episode=16}}</ref> A few seconds later, however, they hear her scream and find that a Moblin is also interrogating the woman about the potion.<ref>{{Cite Episode|quote=Tell me what you know, or else!|name=Moblin|show=Captain N: The Game Master|episode=16}}</ref> After Link, Zelda and Kevin defeat all of the Moblins, Link approaches the Moblin leader to defeat him, but the woman's son gets in the way and the Moblin leader holds him hostage, commanding the heroes that they drop their weapons.<ref>{{Cite Episode|quote=Drop your weapons!|name=Moblin|show=Captain N: The Game Master|episode=16}}</ref> Link and Zelda obey, but Kevin hesitates to drop his Zapper until the Moblin singles him out, at which point Kevin throws it in front of him. As the Moblin is distracted, Kevin throws a blanket on top of the monster, allowing the kid to escape and giving Link a chance to [[zap]] the Moblin. The woman thanks Kevin for saving her son and gives him a map to the [[Parapa Palace]], where they will find the [[Golden Key]] that reveals the path to the Potion of Power.<ref>{{Cite Episode|quote=Thank you for saving my son, kind sir. Please, take this as a reward. It's a map to an ancient desert palace. There lies a Golden Key that will unlock the Potion of Power you seek.|name=Woman|show=Captain N: The Game Master|episode=16}}</ref>

 

*The town is seemingly named after [[Rauru]], one of [[Sage|Seven Sages]] from {{OoT}}. As well as being the first town Link visits, Rauru is the first Sage he receives a [[Medallions|Medallion]] from.

*The woman in the {{CN|-}} episode who claims that she "knows nothing" is a reference to the various characters in {{TAoL|-}} who say "I KNOW NOTHING" when Link speaks to them.
