Deku Woods

The Deku Woods are a geographic feature of eastern Hyrule that serves a 4-player map in Hyrule Conquest.

Geography
The Deku Woods, like the nearby Fairies' Woods, are an ancient eastern remnant of the ancient forests that once covered much of Labrynna, separated from the Kokiri Forest by the Picorou River. It covers much of the western foothills of the Talus Peaks in an approximately 150 square mile area, and is bounded off at the north by a stream that marks one of the sources of the Picorou, while the Talus River divides it from the Fairies' Woods to the east.

The Deku Scrub colony of Joogal lies on southwestern periphery of the woods, have been overrun by the worst recorded outbreak of Mad Scrub, but later reclaimed and resettled by the Scrubs.The Deku Woods, much like the eastern Kokiri Forest, initially seems pleasant and peaceful, dominated by pseudo-tropical flora and large sunny glades, but much of its native plant life has been blighted by Mad Scrub. Tangles of wild vines restrict travel, sickly red trees spread the sickness, and hostile Mad Scrubs and wild Snap Dragons maraud the glades. At the heart of the woods lurks a gigantic mad Manhandla.
