The Village of Outcasts is a location from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. It is virtually identical to its Light World counterpart, Kakariko Village, excluding the basic Dark World qualities; several buildings have been reduced to rubble, plants and trees have withered and Bone Cuccos flock around the village. Most of the remaining buildings are shabby, tattered or fenced in to keep out the many thieves that roam the streets. The village features several active gambling-dens — a Shooting Gallery, a Treasure Chest Shop as well as the Treasure Field — where Link can win valuable prizes, including two Pieces of Heart. Some of the buildings also hold vast amounts of Rupees hoarded away in chests.
Featured in the centre of the village, guarded by a towering gargoyle, is Thieves' Town, which houses the fourth maiden. It is also home to a frog-like creature, who is really a blacksmith from the Light World. If Link returns the frog to his home in Kakariko Village, he and his partner will upgrade Link's Master Sword to the Tempered Sword. After he has done this, Link can go to the Dark World counterpart of the Dwarven Swordsmiths' workplace to find a locked chest, which he can take to the Lockpicker in the Light World to receive the bottle inside the chest.
