Throughout Skyward Sword, Link meets many surface dwelling allies. One of these allies is a race of burrowing moles who help us progress through the Earth Temple, and even help us escape the Bokoblin Base on our return to Eldin. After this, though, we don’t really see them again, in game, or in any other title. The question is, what happened to them?

Of course, we’re not going to get any solid answers from Nintendo, so we’ll have to make do with our own ideas. Perhaps they evolved into another species, just like the Zora evolved into Rito in The Wind Waker. That raises its own question of which race? The obvious answer would be Gorons, but a Goron already appears in Skyward Sword

Maybe the race disappeared entirely? The Eldin region is particularly volatile, especially when the Fire Dragon causes an explosion. Perhaps this environment proved too harsh for the race, and they moved elsewhere, or perhaps they even died out?

What do you think was the ultimate fate of the Mogma? Would you like to see them return in a future title? Let us know in the comments below!
