Sacred Forest Meadow

The Sacred Forest Meadow (森の聖域, Mori no Sei'iki) is the favorite haunt of Saria. It lies in the center of the Lost Woods and can be reached by following the sound of Saria's Song. A portion of it, the Forest Maze, is infested with Deku Scrubs when Link is a child, and Club moblins and the odd Wolfos when Link is an adult.

Beyond the maze the Forest Temple can be found. It was here that Saria spent most of her time. She would sit under the broken stairway of the Forest Temple and play her ocarina and communicate with the spirits of the forest. Saria felt the meadow would be important to both Link and herself one day. She was more correct than ever; she could have possibly imagined as Link would go on to liberate the temple of Ganondorf's influence and awaken her as the Sage of Forest seven years later during the Imprisoning War.
