Kasuto, also known as Old Kasuto, is a location in Zelda II: The Adventure of Link. This town is located near the south coast of eastern Hyrule, just west of the Hidden Palace. The town is deserted save for a Wise Man. Many of the buildings are half-demolished, and the few that could still be entered are empty. The town is also swarmed with Moas, although it is never stated whether they drove the townspeople away or if they appeared after Kasuto was deserted.

When Link visits the town, the Wise Man initially only tells him that the townsfolk have fled. Later, when Link obtains the spell magic from the Wise Man in the Hidden Town of Kasuto, the Wise Man in Kasuto teaches him the Thunder Spell.

Kasuto is the only town in The Adventure of Link that does not share a name with a character in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.

TheoriesEdit

It is likely that Kasuto is the town being attacked by Ganon's minions in the instruction booklet's prologue, which would explain why it is deserted during the game.
