Northwestern Sea
The Northwestern Sea is a location in Phantom Hourglass.[1]
Features and Overview
The Northwestern Sea is a quadrant in the World of the Ocean King located in the northwest. The Northwestern Sea is initially cursed with a thick fog generated by the Ghost Ship that causes all Ships to become lost.[2] It can only be accessed by navigating a specific route through the western side of the Southwestern Sea. After pursuing the Ghost Ship through the fog and losing their way, Linebeck suggests that someone from a nearby Island in the Southwestern Sea might know the route.[2] The safe route through the fog can be found in the Old Wayfarer's cave on Molida Island.
The Northwestern Sea contains the Isle of Gust, Bannan Island, the Uncharted Island, and Zauz's Island. After rescuing all three Fairies, Link is able to pursue and board the Ghost Ship to find Tetra's petrified body.
Beedle's Shop Ship can occasionally be found wandering the waters of the Northwestern Sea, though it will eventually leave for another quadrant of the World of the Ocean King. After obtaining the Cyclone Slate, Link can speak to a Golden Frog between Bannan Island and the Isle of Gust to learn the corresponding symbols that allow him to Warp to this location.[3]
Once she has been encountered in the Southwestern Sea, the SS Linebeck has a chance of running into her in all quadrants of the World of the Ocean King, including the Northwestern Sea. While Zauz is forging the Sword Blade, Link will receive a letter from Jolene challenging him to a duel.[4]

What?! What happened?! We were chugging along, making headway there... Bah! You think maybe... Could it be the influence of the Ghost Ship? Now what did I hear about that...oh, yeah! It's always surrounded by infernal fog! And that fog leads ships horribly astray! I think it's best that we beat a hasty retreat, Link! Maybe someone on one of the nearby islands knows a way through this fog!

Ooof! Nice shot, buddy! The big frog spread the world about you! So, want to know what to draw on the Cyclone Slate to fly right here? Here goes! Pay attention!

Little boy in green! So you got me, and got me good! Humiliation burns hot in my pirate blood! And so, my mind is haunted with this one, searing word... REVENGE! Yes! I demand a rematch to see who's truly the strongest on the sea! I've sharpened my skills since last we clashed. I am unbeatable! All will fall beneath my blade. Oh, yes. Somewhere on these vast seas our paths will cross again. If you have any honor at all, you will meet me in battle one last time! The mighty She-Pirate, Jolene
