The Forest Haven is a location from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. An island on the Great Sea, it is the home of the Great Deku Tree and the Koroks. Link sails to the Forest Haven to ask the Great Deku Tree for Farore's Pearl. Aware that Ganondorf has returned, the Great Deku Tree agrees to give Link the pearl after the completion of the annual Korok Ceremony to replenish the forests. Linder, one of the Koroks, enters and informs the Great Deku Tree that Makar has fallen into the Forbidden Woods. The Deku Tree, believing that Link's appearance at this time was not a coincidence, asks Link to rescue Makar. Link does so, allowing the ceremony to be completed, and receives Farore's Pearl.
Later in the game, the spring water in the Forest Haven can be bottled and used to refresh the Deku Sprouts scattered throughout the Great Sea. Also, the Forest Haven is the only place to find (and catch) Forest Fireflies.
[edit] Theory
Theory warning: This section contains theoretical information based on the viewpoints or research of one or several other users. It has not been officially verified by Nintendo and its factual accuracy is disputed.
The Forest Haven and Forbidden Woods might share some sort of connection to Kokiri Forest and the Lost Woods from the The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Inside the Forbidden Woods are structures that look like the homes of the Kokiri (they are the same shape as in the Ocarina of Time), which are stated by one of the Koroks to be their homes when they lived in the Forbidden Woods long ago. It is possible that the Forest Haven was once the Great Deku Tree's grove.
