Natzu is a region in Oracle of Seasons whose landscape varies to suit the Animal Companion Link befriends.[1] It is the Holodrum counterpart of the Nuun Highlands in Oracle of Ages.
Features and Overview[]
Unlike the Nuun Highlands, the name of the region itself is variable:
- Natzu Prairie appears when Link has Ricky's Flute. Natzu Prairie has holes and cliffs that only Ricky can jump.
- Natzu River appears when Link has Dimitri's Flute. Natzu River has strong currents and a waterfall that only Dimitri can swim in.
- Natzu Wasteland appears when Link has Moosh's Flute. Natzu Wasteland has holes that only Moosh can fly across.
Though the precise locations vary, Natzu always has the same three caves, which contain:
- A Fairy Fountain
- A singing Deku Scrub who gives Link a Seed Satchel upgrade in exchange for the Deku Secret
- A Treasure Chest containing 50 Rupees, located at the opposite end of a large gap interspersed with moving platforms
Link initially enters Natzu via Holodrum Plain to the west. Link traverses Natzu in order to reach Sunken City to the east. The Moblin's Keep is located in eastern Natzu next to Sunken City.
The region is in a perpetual Spring. It has no Tree Stump with which to change the Season.
Nomenclature[]
Natzu is derived from ナッツ (Nattsu), which is part of the Japanese name for Deku Scrubs, デクナッツ (Deku Nattsu). This may be in reference to the lone Deku Scrub who resides in one of the caves.
Alternately, it can be a corruption of 夏 (Natsu), the Japanese term for the season of summer, fitting the game's theme of seasons.
