The town is close to the [[North Castle]] and is found beyond the forest to the southeast. It's the first town that [[Link]] is likely to visit in his quest.
Agitha is a young girl who lives in [[Agitha's Castle|her castle]] in [[Hyrule Castle Town]]. She pretends to be a princess of the insect kingdom living in her own little castle house.<ref>{{Cite|Oh, boy, I forgot the formalities! You have an audience with the princess of the bug kingdom. Agitha is my name!|Agitha|TP}}</ref> She had sent out invitations to the [[Golden Bug]]s to come to her ball.<ref>{{Cite|I've invited the 24 golden bugs of the world to the ball, but...|Agitha|TP}}</ref> There are twelve types of bugs, each species having both a male and female for 24 bugs total. She believes that they have each gotten lost on their way, so she requests that [[Link]] find all 24 bugs for her.<ref>{{Cite|I don't know if they got lost on the way or what...but they're not here, that's for sure. If you see them, would you please bring them here to Agitha's Castle? And tell them the princess awaits!|Agitha|TP}}</ref> For each bug Link gives her, she gives him 50 [[Rupee]]s.<ref>{{Cite|Allow me to share this happiness with you!|Agitha|TP}}</ref> For each time he completes a pair, she gives him 100 Rupees.<ref>{{Cite|Oh, yes! We have a pair! Don't those li'l bugs look happy?! As a symbol of my royal gratitude, please accept this!|Agitha|TP}}</ref> When Link gives her the first bug, she gives him the [[Big Wallet]].<ref>{{Cite|...You actually went bug hunting for me, didn't you?

It can hold up to 1,000 Rupees!|N/A|TP}}</ref> If Link leaves her castle when he still has Golden Bugs on hand, she will whisper "I know you have bugs..." accompanied by a low growl.
 
 
In {{TPHD}}, upon delivering half of the bugs to her, she will give Link a [[Miiverse Stamp|Stamp]] of her that can be used in [[Miiverse]].
 
 
Although she is a bit delusional, she is very kind and caring. She is one of the few characters who is not afraid of [[Wolf Link]], but rather, asks if he would like to play with her, as she thinks he is a puppy. She apologizes for not being able to speak puppy, indicating she thinks that Wolf Link wants to tell her something.<ref>{{Cite|Oh, hello, puppy... I'm sorry, but I don't speak puppy. Do you want to play?|Agitha|TP}}</ref> Sometimes she can be found outside the southern gates of Hyrule Castle Town during the daytime before Link has brought her all 24 bugs; she states she is looking for bugs in the flowers. This is the only time she carries her trademark parasol and basket. If Link speaks to her around sunset when she is walking back to the city, she says she is heading home and if Link wants to talk to her, he should come visit her at her posh castle.<ref>{{Cite|Why, hello! I'm so sorry, but I was just finishing up here. If there's something you need, you'll simply have to visit me in my posh castle on the other side of the gate.|Agitha|TP}}</ref>

The town of Rauru appears in the "[[Quest for the Potion of Power]]" episode of ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]''. 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.

When the heroes arrive to Rauru, they find it practically deserted, until they see a woman walk by not far from where they are.

Agitha is a playable Warrior in {{HW}}. She fights primarily by summoning swarms of Golden Butterflies and giant Golden Beetles with her Parasol weapon to aid her in battle.<ref>{{Cite web|quote= |author= |published= June 24, 2014|retrieved=June 24, 2014|url= http://www.famitsu.com/news/201406/24055797.html|title= Agitha and Lana in Hyrule Warriors|site= Famitsu|type=}}</ref>
 
 
In [[Legend Mode]], Agitha first appears in the [[Twilight Field]] Scenario, "[[Land of Twilight]]". She becomes cornered by the [[Forces|Dark Force]]s' [[Bulblin]]s, but is shortly saved by [[Lana]]. She decides to aid the [[Hyrulean Forces]] to find the land's [[Gate of Souls]] by having her [[Goddess Butterfly]] lead the way. It is, however, captured by [[Midna]] (Whom Agitha refers to as "Miss Kitty"), who then uses it to locate [[Cia]].<ref>{{Cite web |published= 2014-07-01|retrieved=July 1, 2014|url= https://twitter.com/zelda_musou/status/483906964401831936 |title= 「ゼルダ無双」公式 on Twitter |site= Twitter}}</ref> The Hyrulean Forces manage to defeat her and retrieve the Goddess Butterfly. Agitha accompanies the Hyrulean Forces as they combat [[Zant]] in the [[Palace of Twilight (Hyrule Warriors)|Palace of Twilight]], and later Cia and her Dark Forces.
 
 
Agitha is unlocked as a playable character through [[Adventure Mode]]. She is occasionally also fought as an enemy Warrior in certain Adventure Mode Battles, or sometimes in the form of "[[Dark Link|Dark]] Agitha". She occasionally drops [[Agitha's Basket|her Basket]] as a [[Material]] when defeated, and rarely [[Agitha's Pendant|her Pendant]].

==Trivia==

*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.
*According to the [[Prima Games]] guide, Agitha is about ten years old.<ref>[http://www.thehylia.com/media/albums/TP%20Prima%20Guide/0016.jpg Prima Official Strategy Guide P. 15]</ref>
 
  +
*The woman in the ''Captain N'' episode who claims that she "knows nothing" is an obvious reference to the various characters in ''The Adventure of Link'' who say "I KNOW NOTHING" when Link speaks to them.
*Agitha's line describing what Link looks like the first time he talks to her depends on the tunic worn, from a giant grasshopper, jewel beetle or scarab beetle.<ref>{{Cite|...Oh, boy! I thought you were a giant grasshopper!|Agitha|Twilight Princess}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|...Oh, boy! I thought you were a giant jewel beetle!|Agitha|Twilight Princess}}</ref><ref>{{Cite|...Oh, boy! I thought you were a giant scarab beetle!|Agitha|Twilight Princess}}</ref> The third result is impossible to see in the original game because Link cannot afford the Magic Armor's 598 Rupee price without the Big Wallet. In {{TPHD}} it is possible to obtain the Big Wallet from the [[Cave of Shadows]] to obtain the Magic Armor and thus see the text.
 
*Agitha's clothes are of the lolita fashion style, which is a popular style in Japan and fans of Japanese culture. Her style is a mix of classic and sweet with a bug motif.
 
*In ''Hyrule Warriors'', Agitha claims to have learned how to pick locks from termites.

Template:Place Rauru Town (also known simply as Rauru) is a small settlement located in western Hyrule in Template:AOL.

Features

The town is close to the North Castle and is found beyond the forest to the southeast. It's the first town that Link is likely to visit in his quest.

The 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.[1] 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.[2]

Rauru in Captain N: The Game Master

The town of Rauru appears in the "Quest for the Potion of Power" episode of Captain N: The Game Master. 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 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.[3]

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.[4] A few seconds later, however, they hear her scream and find that a Moblin is also interrogating the woman about the potion.[5] 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.[6] 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.[7]
