===Signs of the Oocca===
Later on in the game, Link travels to the [[Faron Woods]] in search of Rusl, who according to Telma went to Hyrule's southern wood to "check out the lay out of the land."{{Ref|TP|5527|[[Telma]]}} Upon finding Rusl in the area just south of the [[Forest Temple (Twilight Princess)|Forest Temple]], Rusl tells Link of an ancient temple deep in the woods that guards a sacred power.{{Ref|TP|7837|[[Rusl]]}} He explains that the ancestors of the Hylians built that temple, and that signs of their civilization are everywhere.{{Ref|TP|7838|Rusl}} Although he does not explicitly state he is talking about the Oocca, it is confirmed later by none other than Ooccoo, a member of the Oocca. This confirmation occurs while Link is in this ''ancient temple'', the [[Temple of Time (Dungeon)|Temple of Time]]. In the first room of this [[dungeon]], Link meets Ooocoo, she states that the "ancient technology" of her people sleeps here.{{Ref|TP|7217|[[Ooccoo]]}} This confirms that the temple was built by the Oocca long ago.

===Messenger to the Heavens===
During the [[Sky Cannon]] quest, Link at one point will go to the [[Hidden Village]] and speak with its lone inhabitant, [[Impaz]]. After showing her the [[Dominion Rod]], she tells Link a short history of the Oocca and their connection to the [[Royal Family]]. She begins by telling Link about a story from the legends of her [[Sheikah|clad]], from a time when the Oocca still maintained contact with the Royal Family.{{Ref|TP|7910|[[Impaz]]}} This story says that a mysterious rod was handed down from the people in the sky; the Oocca. This rod is called the Dominion Rod.{{Ref|TP|7911|Impaz}} Additionally, it is said that the rod was only to be carried by the messenger to the heavens when the royal family needed to communicate with the Oocca.{{Ref|TP|7912|Impaz}} However, it is unknown why the royal family would ever need to communicate with the Ooccaa. Impaz concludes by stating that by royal decree her ancestors have guarded the [[Ancient Sky Book|book]] that was to be given to the messenger to the heavens.{{Ref|TP|7913|Impaz}} With this book, Link can obtain the word that allows him to reach the Sky Cannon, and, subsequently, the City in the Sky.
