Romani Ranch

Romani Ranch is a location from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask. This cattle ranch is located in southwestern Termina, right off Milk Road. It is split into three sections: the main section with the barn and house, the Doggy Racetrack, and the Cucco Shack.

History
The ranch is home to the two sisters Cremia and Romani (the latter of whom was named after the ranch), Grog, and Mamamu Yan. Shortly before the Carnival of Time, the Skull Kid places a huge boulder in front of the ranch, blocking the way to Clock Town. A Carpenter works on removing the boulder, but it takes him until the Final Day. Link can remove the boulder earlier by using a Powder Keg.

When Link goes inside the ranch, he can get Epona, win the Bunny Hood, and participate in the Doggy Race mini-game. The ranch is also the sight of paranormal phenomena. Once every year, around the time of the Carnival of Time, "They" as Romani calls them, come from a flying orb in the sky descend upon Romani Ranch, stealing the ranch's Cows for unknown reasons.

If Link manages to get into Romani Ranch on the first day, Romani will recruit him as her assistant to prevent the alien invaders from stealing her beloved cows. If Link agrees to help he can practice his aim with the Hero's Bow while riding Epona. During training he gets infinite arrows but in the real fight he must keep getting more arrows.

Once training is completed, Romani asks Link to meet her in the early hours of the morning and await the arrival of the strangers. However, if he fails to defend the farm all night until sunrise, Romani is also abducted along with the animals. This is apparently a mistake on the invader's behalf, as they do return her (though not the cattle), but she displays depressing signs of amnesia. If Link succeeds in fending off "Them", Romani will give him a bottle filled with Romani Milk, and an extra sidequest will be made available.

Etymology
The word "Romani" is the Japanese term for "Gypsy". It is also an alternate name for "Gypsy" in other languages and cultures.
